The nightmare never ends… in the beginning writing C++ for the GCC was better than MSVC. The template support was much better. To be exact the C++ compiler of Visual Studio 6 had minimal support for templates. You could do something in GCC and then find out that it doesn’t compile under Visual Studio 6. […]

Yes, it is true… after 18 years Greece gets the gold again at Eurobasket. I was a little boy when we got the last one and it was thrilling. I don’t know if yesterday was as thrilling as the previous one, and I certainly don’t know if it is because I changed or the world […]

Yesterday I opened my e-mailbox and found a message from Tobias Robison. Tobias was kind enough to do some editing of my scripting-game-engines article/post, to improve my english.

I updated the article, so now you can read it again and enjoy it twice

Thank you very much Tobias !!!

Wow the last days was full! My master thesis is at a point where requires a lot of attention… I’m trying to add some new functionality in Sylphis3D… trying to keep up with my personal life. And to all that slashdot came up, filling my mailbox making me spend time in forums I had never […]

Woke up this Sunday morning to find out that the post I wrote some time ago about game scripting with stackless python was boldly enjoying a place at Slashdot’s main page!

I […]

As I said before on an other post, I’m a big bug stumbler. I’m attracted by them. So you can imagine what was my experience with beta OpenGL drivers. Hell. Things working on my machine, not working on others, things not working at all, blue screens, hitting unoptimized paths with low performance… and the list […]

A friend asked me some time ago if the implementation of the heap data structure in the STL has update functions. He couldn’t find any documentation about an update_heap() function. He was as sure as I was (some time ago) that there must be one, but he can’t find it. I can understand him.

It […]

I can’t get used to it. I simply can’t. I just finished invigilation for “Computer Networks”. The exams was 3 hours. This must be the proof of relativity. These 3 hours seems like ages. According to my estimations the first hour lasts as much as it is supposed to, 1 hour. The next hour […]
