I thought, maybe, after a month, she has found out that there are still some feelings for me left inside her, that we might actually work towards some kind of a get-back-together - I know I did, I miss her terribly. Well, I've been wrong. She still sees all of it as mostly my fault, and although I've apologized like a hundred times and already proved several times that I can improve, she made practically no effort at even identifying the problems with herself that caused all this in the first place. It turned out into an "I told you to pack your things and go, you did but you didn't pack all of your things, I want you to get out of my life completely. But then, I don't want you to hate me, I still want to be friends". WTF?

So I guess tomorrow I'll start looking for a house to buy.

So very sorry. I wish I had some words of wisdom, but I think it is best to move on and be independent. Maybe things will change in the future, but it doesn't seem like it right now.

Get a place to call your own. Heal.

Yes, a big WTF.
Better try to independize for a while. Maybe this means she still "feels something for you". Try getting out of her life and taking her out of yours and see what happens, maybe she recovers interest in you.

Good luck, and keep going Smile

Just discovered something weird in Noise.cpp. Clang is compiling the fast_floor function back into a simple float->int cast on machines that support SSE. It appears that the optimization is not an optimization on machines with SSE.

@xoft Is there any evidence that the repeated value detection in CalcFloorFrac improves performance? It seems an unnecessary complication, and doesn't have much work compared to how much it could mess up the prefetcher.

I've just tried Super Smash Bros for Wii U.
It's THE F****** GAME. (Even more addictive than minecraft).
Now I need a Wii U... Sad

@worktycho: what do you mean exactly? All the caching and precalculating has been benchmarked and has had quite a tremendous performance boost on the noise generation; true that the benchmarks were run only on MSVC2008 code at that time, gcc and MSVC2013 might be able to produce faster code nowadays. But I seriously doubt it.

Keep the swearing to the minimum please Wink Minecraft is also played by allot of kids.

RE: What we're doing - worktycho - 02-01-2015

That's exactly what I was wondering about. It predates my joining the project and the move to GitHub, so I couldn't find out the reasons about why it was done.

RE: What we're doing - NiLSPACE - 02-01-2015

Starting tomorrow we have to go to school from 8:30 to 17:15 for 3 weeks. In that time we have to work on a PHP website and some kind of C# project. For some reason they want us to use techniques that we haven't had in class like databases and classes. We did get a book that explains how databases work which is extremely usefull Smile I'm actualy considering rewriting Login to finaly use sqlite3 after I finish my database class in PHP(almost done).
