6000x faster than F#? that is impossible as rust is slower than C++ and C# is 2-3x slower than C++ 6000x faster is ridiculous as it would mean that it would be more difference than C++ vs python or actionscript PS: even if you meant 600x and accidentally added a 0 too much it would still be...

I studied computer science in college but left it unfinished because I was getting increasingly frustrated and impatient, the way education worked was revolting, because we had a short time limit to write a novel's worth of text and code on paper and I frequently failed because I couldn't finish...

A skill that isn't taught at schools but should, is how to write maintainable code. I think it's one of the most important aspects of code, no matter how correct your code is, if it's not maintainable you will get a lot of hate. Instinctively a programmer would code towards an implementation...

Your problem comes from installing windows without reformatting the drive beforehand when there was already an old windows installation on disk I recommend you the tool "unlocker" (current verion : 1.9.2) it lets you delete files that are usually undeletable, it should be able to get rid of the...

5 MH/s mining? either you mean 5 GH/s or you're talking about scrypt mining like with litecoin using company hardware that way is illegal btw and if you get caught you'll get fired and maybe sued. 5 MH/s on scrypt is decent and worth about 40 bucks a day at the current rate (assuming you mine...

You can easily google for software that can do it

Win rar is encrypted using the password as encryption key, so there is no way to breach it other than brute forcing. Nowadays there is software to use the GPU to quickly crack the RAR passwords. An 8 character password should be cracked in 5-8 hours if you have a good GPU, but the solving time...

Java is still well used in the industry, in my job I use java in a big data environment with clusters of servers, we use java for everything from web development to server software

I've had some servers idling away for a while and I thought to myself I could put them to good use if I could find someone who has the time and dedication to make a minecraft server. Your Profile : - Knows all important things about the game and how to use mods in a server environment - Passion...

I've been using windows 8 for months and I must say it's a very small change from windows 7 and it is not a bold move from windows and not largely targeted at tablets at all Did you guys even notice there's a desktop on that thing? I haven't used a single metro app, and there IS a start menu...

I was trying not to get involved with this thread because some people never listen especially when it's about religion but what You must be registered for see element. is saying is just too much crap to keep quiet. You seriously think that every question that can't be answered is answered with...

I learned C# by googling every single thing that I didn't know whenever I hit a problem. Within a week I was coding C# nearly as good as any other language I learned before also XNA is not obsolete, it's useful to port your apps to windows phone and xbox and pc with the same code

I tested the scenario and got down to 4 KB per image by using zlib (it uses zip compress algorithm which isn't bad) and that was without using bits for each pixel so there's room for improvement

you can easily implement that by using the bit wise operators like SHL SHR AND and OR to make a function that lets you store 8 bools inside a byte and retrieve them, then use an array of bytes to store the image, although you could technically just use a compression algorythm to get it down to 1...
