Project mention: Multi-layer Caching in API Gateway Tackles High Traffic Challenges | dev.to | 2024-01-26Through this intelligent caching mechanism, APISIX efficiently utilizes system resources when handling a large volume of requests, thereby improving overall system performance and stability. APISIX, with its advanced LRU cache, provides developers with a reliable and efficient API gateway solution, facilitating smooth communication with external services.
Project mention: Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-17I've built a few games with my son over the years. The fun part for us was all about fast iteration, and then laughing at the bugs together.
There are some other recommendations here for how to approach 3d, and he is specifically asking for 3d -- but I want to put in one more pitch for 2d: the fun-to-tedium ratio can be much higher.
I wonder if you could spend some time prototyping some of his ideas in LÖVE https://love2d.org/ -- if you show him the smallest sketch of something working, he might have an idea about what to add next.
Many years ago, on a flight, we went from 0 to game before we landed (with no experience).
As someone said, make the game data-driven is a good first step but I will say, also have some sort of way to add additional game logic. For C++ games, lua is really easy to embed the interpreter in your C++ binary, read in the files from a directory (like /mods) with the C++ filesystem api new in C++17, and it's very easy to use SoL to write an API for lua specific to your game. Many games use lua in this way and it's probably the most common mod path setup.
LUA_INCDIR is not listed on either https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Installation-instructions-for-Unix or https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Installation-instructions-for-Unix but luarocks complains that it's not set. What does it do?
Project mention: Ravi is a dialect of Lua, with JIT and AOT compilers | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-18
Project mention: Buzz: A lightweight statically typed scripting language | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-26
To have enough batteries you kind of just need penlight[1] and maybe luastd. Of course there's posix, lfs, socket, luasec and you're semi set.
Picolove, written in lua for love2d: a very good starting point, especially if the engine you're using has support for lua. Has been used for "expanded" versions of games, because it's very easy to modify the resolution of the display and things like that. Works for simpler carts like Celeste, but is not memory accurate!
Project mention: How to run code in neovim using a shotcut like <leader>r for any language | /r/neovim | 2023-08-26I used to use this plugin: https://github.com/CRAG666/code_runner.nvim ... up until I realized that I could just run my code from the terminal without the need of a plugin for that
I have been working on restructuring telescope-frecency.nvim. One of the biggest changes is removing dependency for sqlite.lua.
