![]() Minimem was originally developed for reducing the memory consumed by Firefox but now its scope has expanded to reduce the memory of any application. About 2MB of memory is used while RAMRush is in the tray. You can do this either by double clicking on the tray icon, hovering over the tray icon to bring up the CPU and RAM graphs, then click “Start Optimize” or press the hotkey combination (the default is Ctrl+Alt+O). There is a difference between RAMRush and other tools because it doesn’t offer to auto optimize the memory and this is done entirely when you choose to run the optimize manually. RAMRush is almost as simple as it gets in terms of difficulty to use, the only real choices you have to make are whether you want start the program with Windows, whether you want tray icon messages, what hotkey combination to use and what colors you want the graphs to be. You can however, set this value yourself or turn it off altogether and run optimizations manually. The program starts in “Intelligent Memory Optimization” mode which will run at an interval decided by Memory Booster, it was 20-25 seconds during testing. There’s also a few useful graphs to show these memory values live and the current CPU usage. ![]() The main window offers a good amount of information about how much memory is in use, how much of the pagefile is in use and the amount of virtual memory the system is using. Like the Wise utility above, Memory Booster is portable and easy to use and also impressively uses no more than a Megabyte of memory while sitting in the system tray or while optimizing. Previously called Datum Memory Booster, this is another program that uses Windows API calls to reduce the amount of working memory reserved by a process. Here we show you 6 free tools that can help reduce the memory your system is using and keep it running more smoothly for longer. ![]() This gives a program the memory it actually needs and not what it asks for, reducing the amount of used memory while not impacting on the performance of your computer Thankfully there are ways to get around this issue through software which is able to reduce the amount of memory a system process consumes by using a documented feature in the Windows API. It’s not always possible to put more memory into an aging computer simply due to high costs for old types of RAM or a lack of RAM slots, such as in a laptop or netbook. As we know, a hard drive is much slower than RAM and this is why a system with a low amount of memory can start to slow down really quickly with several programs running at once, or a web browser with many tabs open, for example. When Windows starts to run out of physical memory it offloads data to the page file which is stored on your hard drive. One of the biggest upgrades you can make to an older computer is being sure it has enough memory (RAM) to handle the operating system and all the programs you want to run on it. ![]()

![]() ![]() And the desire to sort out everything will turn into a dangerous survival for him. The main hero will have a strong suspicion of strange things happening in the house in front of him. And this is exactly what you are going to face in this exciting horror game. I still love the Alphas, but it's a bittersweet love, since I know what the final product became.Everyone has a neighbor, right? But are you sure you know everything about the people surrounding you? Sometimes, things are entirely different from what they look like. Now we've got books, merch, and an animated show about a game that really fell out of the limelight before it was released. And let's not discuss that Bendy crossover, that was just a disappointing and lazy cashgrab. ![]() TinyBuild spent over a year making a game with one story, then decided to just overhaul it and change it up completely. ![]() It honestly seems like the pre-release and post-release versions of the game had completely different stories. Despite 5 Alphas and 2 Betas, the game was glitchy and had the game-breaking bug of IMPORTANT ITEMS NOT SPAWNING IN. They were much less unique, but understandably so since the devs were getting closer to the full release. All of the Alphas, imo, were great each was unique and added more pieces to the puzzle it seemed like TinyBuild was creating. Don’t buy these company’s products because Even if they seem promising they’re just gonna turn out garbage. If you like hello neighbor that’s great but here’s what you should do. What is not an opinion is that this company is just trying to scam you out of every penny they can find. I could talk all day about how bad hello neighbor is as the game is but that’s opinion. when I saw this today this just pushed me over the edge with this company and I had to post this to show how stupid this is. The reason they’re saying this unbelievably false statement is that they just want to get a few extra bucks out of the dummies that are stupid enough to believe it. Again those 11 million players don’t count because they released The YouTube video three weeks ago and they claimed this on March 29 but regardless of how you slice it we get with the total roughly around 5.2 to 16.2 million players max. I’m not technically allowed to add this because this only came out three weeks ago and they claimed that they had 30 million players on March 29 but Screw it let’s just add another 11 million players. At the time I am typing this three weeks ago the hello neighbor animated series pilot episode released and got 11 million views. Then the latest game in the franchise secret neighbor also released Which again was not even nearly as main stream is hello neighbor and a lot of people were leaving the franchise by then but let’s be even more generous and add 800,000 players to the total. So be even more Generous and say that all 2 million people who bought a book downloaded the game so let’s add another 2 million players to the total And we are at 3.4 million players in case you can’t count. At the time the hello neighbor book series Released and according to them sold 2 million copies. Then hello neighbor hide and seek released and it was not nearly as hyped up and was not nearly as featured on YouTube as the original but let’s be generous again and say that another 700,000 players downloaded the game. Hello neighbor by 2018 had about 500,000 players let’s be generous and say that by 2020 it grew by 200,000 it is now 700,000 players And let’s say that Those 700,000 players will stick with the game. On March 29 tiny build announced That hello neighbor had over “30 million players worldwide” and has gotten “over 2 million books sold.” This is a complete utter lie and I’m about to prove it with the power of MATH. I saw this today and he pissed me off so much that I had to post this, so let’s begin. ![]() Now if you’re in this SubReddit you most likely like hello neighbor and opinions are opinions and you can think whatever you want and that’s fine, but I’m just gonna show you how low this company will go just to make a quick buck. ![]() ![]() ![]() Logic Pro X… the best gets better!

FnPlusArgs holds a function pointer, and some arguments to be passed to it. Let's imagine for a second we have some classes, which I'll define later. So how would we write code that is tail call optimised in C++? Possibly of more interest to me personally: if we were generating C++ as the output format for some other language, what code might we generate for tail call optimised functions? Tail call optimised C++ Languages which have this feature by design, like Scheme (and D?) can do it more predictably. It is difficult to implement for all cases, especially in C++ since destruction of objects can cause code to be executed where you might not have expected it, and it doesn't appear to be easy to tell when a compiler will or will not do it without examining the generated assembly language. Apparently, some compilers, including MS Visual Studio and GCC, do provide tail call optimisation under certain circumstances (when optimisations are enabled, obviously). * Tail call optimisation isn't in the C++ standard. So, let's see what happens when we compile and run this: $ ulimit -S -s 16ĭid I mention that C++ doesn't do the tail call optimisation?* The key feature of this implementation is that the recursive function times_two_recursive_impl uses a tail call to do the recursion: the value of calling itself is immediately returned, without reference to anything else in the function, even temporary variables. The inner function uses a counter variable and calls itself recursively, reducing that counter by one each time, until it reaches zero, when it returns the total, which is increased by 2 each time. It consists of an outer function times_two_recursive which just hands off control to the inner function times_two_recursive_impl. ![]() Return times_two_recursive_impl( 0, value ) Here is the tail-call version: long times_two_recursive_impl( long total, long counter ) The one we're looking at is one of those. Many recursive functions can be re-cast as tail-call versions (sometimes called iterative versions). The tail call optimisation throws away this unneeded state before calling the new function, instead of after. ![]() In this case, we don't need any of the state of the current code any more - we are just about to throw it away and return. A tail call is just the situation where you call a function and immediately return its return value as your return value. There is a special case where you don't need it, though, and this is called a tail call. When you call a function from within some other code, you normally need the state of the current code to be preserved. No, because in several programming languages, the compiler or interpreter performs the "tail call optimisation". So is programming like this useless in practice? Tail call optimisation When you call a function from within a function multiple times, the stack grows and grows, remembering the state all the way down to the place where you started. Why does this fail? Because every time you call a function, the state of the current function is saved, and new information is pushed onto the stack about the new function. Note that I set my stack size to be very small (16K) to make the point - actually, this will run successfully for very large arguments, but it will eat all your memory and take a long time to finish. This is fine, but what happens when you run it for a large input? $ ulimit -S -s 16 Return 2 + times_two_naive_recursive( value - 1 ) Then you might get something like this: long times_two_naive_recursive( long value ) Now imagine that you read somewhere that state was bad, and you could always replace a loop with recursion. (Obviously, this is just a silly example designed to be easy to follow.) We’re going have to use “+”: long times_two_loop( long value ) Now imagine that you don’t have the “*” operator. OK, we can do that: long times_two_hardware( long value ) Imagine for a second that you want to write a function that multiplies a number by two. Here’s a toy problem we will use as our example. Update: Source code for this article is available. For a tiny talk at the recent ACCU conference I looked at how we might do something similar in C++. Some programming languages make recursive programming more practical by providing the tail call optimisation. This series: Lightning talk, Explanation, Performance, Generalisation.

This openness to letting you play at your own pace and level of challenge ultimately proves to be one of the game's greatest strengths. Thankfully, you're able to skip over any puzzles that prove too grating, then return to them once you've cooled off for another go. Some might enjoy having to guess whether they're being misled, as do I when it's done well, but you need to have enough clues to deduce that this is the case. In reality, the solution isn't in any way linked to either the written premise or the previous challenge. An example of the latter is found fairly early on when you're told that the next question requires a more complex mathematical approach than the one you've just solved. The game's attempts at this are either too oblique or obvious. They run the gamut from properly smart to outright annoying, especially when their stated premise clumsily misleads you. However, as you might expect, there is the occasional dud in the mix. There are around 200 of them in total, meaning the game always has a new Layton-style conundrum to throw your way. The primary reason the controls don't sink the experience is that most of your time with The Academy is spent solving its many puzzles.įrom simple comparison and visual puzzles to tests of logic and tricky maths questions, I was never quite sure of what the next challenge could be. It just doesn't feel right regardless of how you approach it, and these problems resurface time and again. I quickly switched over to the point-and-click movement mode, though seeing as you're still in control of the camera, this proved to be similarly unreliable and cumbersome. The simple act of navigating the school's halls can descend into farce, as you clumsily careen from points A to B while battling the virtual joysticks at every turn. Many games have successfully adopted this positioning, and it can be especially effective when aiming to refocus the player's attention away from the protagonist, however here it just aggravates the existing control woes. Its camera is the main offender, being held off-centre for reasons that feel stylistically useful but never entirely practical.

The purported ability of APFS itself to separately encrypt the individual contents of a volume is still missing. You can put individual files or folders into those, but that’s a different thing. Also, it is not actually encryption of arbitrary files or folders it is encryption of a disk images/sparse bundles. The above feature of disk images and sparse bundles has been there for a very long time (I’ve been using it for about 10 years now, don’t know exactly when it was first introduced). They are a little fiddly to set up for instance, if you leave their size set at the default, they can be infuriatingly obtuse.ĭo you remember it referring to both whole-disk and individual file and folder encryption? … Has Apple not yet got round to implementing this? They’re nowhere near as secure as whole disk encryption, but if you want to protect just a few items on a volume which would have to be encrypted in software, they may well prove ideal. Where mybundle.sparsebundle is the path to and name of the bundle.Įncrypted sparse bundles work fine across both Catalina and Mojave, and perhaps with High Sierra too. One operation which you may find handy if the contents shrink noticeably is to compact the sparse bundle using the command Once you’re finished with it, close all files that are open in it and eject the volume. Once that has been entered, the bundle will be mounted, and you can add, remove and edit files within it just as for any read-write volume. You’ll then be prompted for its password. To mount and decrypt those files and folders, double-click the sparse bundle. Once your encrypted sparse bundle is complete, eject it. You may then notice an old bug which was first reported in Mojave: the progress circles next to copied files persist in an incomplete state even though the copies have been made successfully. Drag and drop your files and folders into it as you wish. You should then have a mounted disk image of around 33.5 MB in size, which will expand as required to accommodate up to the set maximum. Once you have set those up, go back and check its size, which Disk Utility has a habit of reverting to its default, so that it will be of little use. sparse bundle disk image (in this example).When you select one, you’ll be prompted for its password either of the encryption options, as you prefer.Because this is sparse storage, it only occupies the space it needs at the time, so ensure this is healthily large, in GB or even TB the maximum size you want the sparse bundle to grow to.a suitable file name and location for the encrypted sparse bundle, and a name for the mounted volume.This produces quite a busy dialog, into which you should enter: In Disk Utility, make a Blank image using the New Image… command in the File menu. They also only use the space they require. Sparse bundles have the advantage that they store the encrypted contents in chunks or bands, which can minimise the amount of backup space they require as they are modified. I’ll do it here using a sparse bundle, although if you prefer you can use a disk image instead. Setting up an encrypted harbour for your files is straightforward. It’s all done with Disk Utility ( hdiutil if you prefer), and once set up works rather well. It has, but perhaps not in the direct way that you expected. Has Apple not yet got round to implementing this? Do you remember it referring to both whole-disk and individual file and folder encryption? Look as hard as you like in the Finder, its Quick Actions, contextual menus, and so on, and it’s nowhere to be found. As few of us have no documents with sensitive contents, you may still want some to be suitably protected.Ĭast your mind back to when Apple first announced APFS and its wonderful new features. But if your Mac has to perform encryption in software – as it will for any external storage even when it does have a T2 chip – you may not want the whole disk encrypted. If your Mac has a T2 chip, like it or not, your internal storage will be fully encrypted. Whole disk encryption is far superior in most respects to encrypting individual files and folders. ![]() |
