Seens pretty interresting. You will be able to program the ship's computer.

My ship will calculate fibonaccis all day long. It's going to be so exiting!

It's simple litmus test.
If you have no computation speed to decode mp3 in runtime, your ship is ruined.

Consider the following scenario: ship flies through 10 space garbage/meteors/missiles.

It means that it need to perform no more than 1000 cycles on each object. Why? Because in fucking space you want to react at least ~10 times a second, otherwise you'll be penetrated by missiles.

And even though I'm being generous(10Hz is shit), 1000 cycles is unreasonable for any self-respecting  ai in 2d. Even more unreasonable in 3d.

Now remember that DCPU has no support for signed numbers, floating/fixed point, trigonometry, matrices multiplication. You know, all the stuff that actually matters for surviving in 3d.

Even calculating (square of) distance is needlessly expensive operations because you need 32 bit additions to calculate dx*dx+dy*dy+dz*dz and you don't have them. You can't ignore overflow in this equation on 16-bit cpu.

We are not in sixties anymore to play with such shitty low-lever toys.
DCPU is somewhere around the level of cpu used on system/360. Ouch.

If I wanted to code ask just to play a game id go play code wars that atleast did it in a correct manner.

You can't legally claim copyright over others work. If he does or try then he's in fact in violation of copyright laws.

How do you think companies work?

Notch can just put shit like this in the license agreement.

You can't unilaterally claim copyright over someone else's work, but people can definitely sign over copyright over their work to you, which is what they'll be doing when they accept the license agreement.

Nigga, please. System/360 was 32-bit with 16 registers and instructions for long arithmetic and floating-point. This CPU is more around the level of a PDP-7, but slower.

That, or he could have used a real spaceship computer.

- Block I Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC): How to build one in your basement: http://klabs.org/history/build_agc/
- Virtual AGC  and source codes: http://www.ibiblio.org/apollo/index.html

Apollo AGC was developed by the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory in the 1960s. It was the first computer to use integrated circuits (ICs), running at 1 Mhz it offered four 16-bit registers, 4K words of RAM and 32K words of ROM. The AGC mutlitasking operating system was called the EXEC, it was capable of executing up to 8 jobs at a time. The user interface unit was called the DSKY (display/keyboard, pronounced "disky"); an array of numerals and a calculator-style keyboard used by the astronauts to communicate with the computer.

That seems fast enough to emulate the Notch Machine.

You'd think a game based on assembly language wouldn't be written by a greedy fat fuck Java monkey.

Java has replaced C and Lisp as the default computer science programming language. I'm not sure how old this guy is, but five years from now your post won't make any sense.

Gravedig hard. There have been a number of changes since what you all describe in it. Are there still such major issues as to make your neckbeards wobble such?
