OpenGL Superbible’s 6th Edition is brilliant, that’s going to be a good read. 
I don’t know the other 2 books but I looked them up on Google and they seem to be interesting, although I think maybe there are better books out there on those topics.
It was a joke/sarcasm. Some people think that way… So don’t take me too serious 
Your memory seems quite slow compared to the other high-end PC’s, didn’t you pay attention to the CAS Latency?
You have the best processor out there, so I don’t understand why that score is so ‘low’ either, you were probably gaming, watching movies, video-editing, installing windows and recording while doing that test. Or maybe it is because your memory ‘under-performs’ compared to other desktops (or even your laptop with 18.26) which also has effect on your CPU, your PC is ready for his first upgrade ;D (joking joking joking).
It’s (very probably) because the other CPU’s are overclocked, so don’t worry
Very very good video card though, it should be able to handle Minecraft (You know my bad-joke-habits by now, right? :))
Created demonstration video for Camera tutorial of LWJGL Tutorial Series.

Well you sound like you know your stuff, so I’m not going to disagree with you or anything. Admittedly this was my first time building a computer. When you say my RAM is slower than other high end computers, do you mean in terms of amount or in terms of actual speed? I don’t know too much about RAM, and I’ve heard that 8 gigs is really all one needs at this point.
And actually, I wasn’t doing anything while I ran the test and the score surprised me too. Maybe it was because I had just finished a session of bioshock infinite. I’m doing the overclocking this weekend.
We’re hijacking the thread at this point, so if you want to continue this conversation (I do) feel free to send me a PM.
All the top results on my website are overclocks, unfortunately it is a bit difficult to get the actual clockspeeds in Java. The 780Ti puts in excellents numbers though… Miles ahead of everything else (as you would expect).
i read a hijacked thread.
Yup, sorry. To de-hijack… Added the main menu to my word puzzle game today. Is it just me, or does OpenGL ES make a hell of a lot more sense (and is a lot simpler) than the old fixed function crap?
Been getting used to the lower-level concurrency primitives like ReentrantLock, they’re quite nice, especially combined with Condition.
I’ve been using higher level stuff for a while now, but even so I only found out about SwingWorkers recently. Check them out if you do anything in Swing, can be very handy.
I started “A Mind For Numbers How to Excel at Math and Science” yesterday, and it’s really good to know. The title suggests “Learn how to be better at math”, but it’s more problem-solving in general. It really helped me out, and has some really good information in there. Definitely changed my life
Also, its actually really popular. You should guys should definitely check it out.

Not much time for code recently, but on Friday I did get married

Yay!

Looking suave! Is that the waltz?
Congratulations
I implemented 3D Skeletal Animation over the course of yesterday and today.
So now I can run animations for my models…only problem is the skeleton doesn’t modify the vertices…yet ;D
Today was the joy of scrollpanes. Slow progress, because I’m being lazy in the summer holidays. Now I’ve got a scrollpane the next important thing is a listbox that can go inside it. I think that’s all the UI components I’m going to need in Battledroid. Hmm. Possibly might need a Table widget.

Started working on implementing the social aspects of my latest game:
The game connects to the user database and pulls down your information, including your profile picture and your high scores. Then there is a high score table that is populated with the (highest) high scores for that specific game. The API to do all this was developed by a team member who is apart of JumpButton Studios.
Of course, this is all programmer art right now 
Edit:
Yes burntpizza, I know the images are big sorry. I didn’t realize.
Dude. [img width=800][/img]
Started animating some sprites:

Cheers,

Really nice work, your art is definitely getting really good, that last animation has a nice 3d looking effect on that spear movement.
Hilbert curves!
Progress: mapping arbitrarily-sized images to the aforementioned Hilbert curve:
If you’re not, then for space filling curves you want to work incrementally.
