Huge milestone!
Finally finished hooking up most of the UI and interactions in VR as well as the optimizations to run the whole thing butter smooth!
Next update, make npcs fuck each other.
This update will hit the ongoing project on Patreon still this month.

🔌 Linux Kernel Drops Final 1990s Intel MMX Optimizations
Developers are preparing to strip the remaining Intel MultiMedia eXtensions code from mainline Linux 7.5. The scheduled update eliminates ancient software optimizations dating back to the late 1990s.

My latest #java article on how to use a Valhalla "value" class to improve performance.
Value classes have no identity and are therefore eligible for certain performance optimizations such as scalarization and dense arrays.

AMD Releases ZenDNN 6.1 With New Kernels & Optimizations
Last month Intel and AMD jointly announced they would be collaborating on software optimizations with PyTorch/oneDNN. That already led to the UXL Foundation's release of oneDNN 3.14 with initial AMD Zen optimizations. It looks though like for now at least AMD will also continue to concurrently push new work into their ZenDNN library and not exclusively tied to oneDNN. Out today is ZenDNN 6.1...

So there's some rough edges to sand down, but like it's a solvable problem and let's you do much more. You've got Torvalds submitting PoC code for optimizations that likely never would have happened before.

This is the endless problem of not having any wargaming research to begin with. If there is a link (I could see a couple plausible mechanisms), I think it's probably mediated through Patrik Hulterström's idea of battlefield acumen creation through wargaming spilling into smaller optimizations.
