Heh, you used the words “site” and “update” in the same sentence! ;D :stuck_out_tongue:

Ok, ok…seems like someone is looking for a chance to spend a month washing Moltar’s socks. And believe me, it’s NOOOO easy ride my friend.

Squashing sarcasm as I go,

SG!

Just for reference, Moltar is the one wearing the apron: http://www.c4vct.com/kym/sg/snaps/mcakes.jpg

The JavaOne ‘Video Game Summit’ information is now on the JavaOne site, see: http://javaone.key3media.com/sf2003/index.php?d=conference&s=game_summit
Much interesting stuff, and many names familiar from these discussion boards.

Arghhh… will have to try and pop in between sessions and have a quick peek! :smiley:

Ah, forget the sessions…

You know, where your place is!

Chief Gaming Officer - not too shabby Chris! I hope they give you hordes of minons along with the cool title.

I guess one of the members of this forum is going to be proud … AlienFlux is listed !

You 've got to deliver now :wink:

#31

One member??

SOME members of this forum are listed.
But being listed on a news server that replicated press releases is not really a reason to be proud…

How about hosting a JavaTwo in europe?

all in favour say : “i”
all not in favour say: “j”

if ( i >= j || i < j) {
javaTwo = new JavaOne(“Amsterdam”);
}

:wink:

#33

Now wait a gosh darn minute here! That code is rigged! Why don’t you just post:


boolean weDontCareAboutYourOpinion = true;

if(i > j || weDontCareAboutYourOpinion)
{
    javaTwo = new JavaOne("Amsterdam"); 
}
#34

Or even better, short-circuit the boolean condition and have a JavaTwo here even faster, by at least a couple of nanoseconds…


boolean weDontCareAboutYourOpinion = true;

if( weDontCareAboutYourOpinion || i > j)
{
    javaTwo = new JavaOne("Amsterdam"); 
}

It would be faster, but it would prevent the poster from gloating if enough people do vote for it. If enough people don’t vote for it, then he just says “I don’t care. Do it anyway!” :wink:

Um, guys…? ;D

I think not. I would guess the i > j clause will be optimized out by the compiler either way (probably even the whole if), so they will be equally fast. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ahem, (cough) yes
