>[imconprehensible techno-babble] Why does /v/ like this pencil

on there

>>388804930
What are you referring to that he's said or done?

>>388805462
His entire twitter history.

/v/ is just complaining that they don't have an insanely high IQ. If you think otherwise, go look at the wikipedia for BSP trees and tell me if you could invent that while lying in bed, then casually implement it over a weekend.

>>388807524
I had the pleasure of shaking his hand one time. He's a manlet, but he's in surprisingly amazing shape, with the pecs of a Greek god.

>>388804930
Why do you make the same thread every day?
Did Carmack kill your cat?

>>388807524
Thank God you censored the function name.

>>388807502
Oh, poor babby. Did he make fun of le god emperor?

>>388808436
Seeing retarded comments like: >>388808587 you can easily infer the only problem these retards have with Carmack is that he is a white male and smarter that any of the nu-""devs"", hence a smear campaign on reddit and 4chan is neccessary to conceal their own mediocrity.

No but neither could Carmack, according to the same article.

Seems like the comment wasn’t that retarded

you do know that he simply went down to his university library and basically borrowed out a whole bunch of PhDs theses on the subject right

Fucktard, the comments are someone else's. Carmack is a literal autistic genius.

Wrong

Christ seeing single character variable names makes me so frustrated for some reason

>>388809253

Wrong source, point is the original code didn't have comments and if you ever wrote actual production code, you'd know that no developer writes comments line by line like that. It's clearly the work of something trying to understand what he did (it's just a Newtonian linear approximation, but actually coming up with it as a optimization is genius)

“My comments inserted” because they’re different you braindead americuck

>>388809469
>if you ever wrote actual production code, you'd know that no developer writes comments line by line like that
I do, and I do, if commenting specific lines.

>>388809482

See the other article, the original source had zero comments.

https://www.beyond3d.com/content/articles/8/

>>388809237
And the game industry would be better off without all of those.

>>388809560

Hmm, really incites thought

>>388804930
>Being too stupid to understand what he is saying.
I am sorry you never bothered to learn about computers.

>>388809560
>he didn't even write it

>>388809469

Actually fuck I'm a faggot. The article states that Carmack didn't write fast inverse square root. Gary did, but even he didn't come up with it. He lifted the algo from a company he worked at previously.

>>388809873
Now go brush your teeth, your breath smells like Carmack cock.

Tom Sawyer making an AAA video game by himself IN ASSEMBLY is more impressive than fastinvsqrt.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RollerCoaster_Tycoon

>The game was developed in a small village near Dunblane over the course of two years.[2] Sawyer wrote 99% of the code for RollerCoaster Tycoon in x86 assembly language, with one percent of the functions written in C for interaction with the Windows operating system and DirectX.

It paid off too, the game was insanely well optimized and ran gorgeously on the potatoest of computers.

>>388804930
I don't give a good god damn about him. Why are you so obsessed with reposting this thread?

>>388810138
I wish more games looked and felt like Roller Coaster Tycoon. I'm sick and tired of random shit made in Unreal Engine 4.

>>388810138
I agree. I never understood how the fuck he was able to build something as huge and complex as transport tycoon (and later roller coaster tycoon) completely by himself in fucking assembly. He must be the greatest autistic savant to ever live.

>>388810307
I envision one of those cartoon scenes where a champion lumberjack competes against the up-and-coming tree cutting machine, except it's Tom Sawyer and the compiler.

Call of Duty has a good amount of Quake code in it, I doubt much of goldsrc made it into Source though.

Really does make you fire the neurons.

They really need to colour those lines or something based on engine modification or redesign.

when Carmack was 14, he broke into a school to help a group of children steal Apple II computers. To gain entry to the building, Carmack concocted a sticky substance of thermite mixed with Vaseline that melted through the windows. However, an overweight accomplice struggled to get through the hole, and opened the window, setting off a silent alarm and alerting police. Carmack was arrested, and sent for psychiatric evaluation (the report mentions 'no empathy for other human beings' and describes Carmack as 'a brain on legs'). Carmack was then sentenced to a year in a juvenile home

>>388810996

Literal weaponized autism.

>>388810996
Of course he has no empathy for other human beings, fatty got him busted with his fatty fat fat.

>>388810996
>To gain entry to the building, Carmack concocted a sticky substance of thermite mixed with Vaseline that melted through the windows.

That seems unnecessary, surely you could just score the glass.

>>388808630
>stole the code he wrote himself

hhhhhhheheheh

Carmack is not thin, he's lanky and jacked, and a martial artist.
