The way I see it: Memorizing puts things in your RAM (which may be slow to access), or CPU cache (if recently used). Looking them up would be equivalent to having them stored on your hard disk, or perhaps a remote…
Wasn't there a math prof that did exactly that? Can't find the link now, but after some getting used to the results were overwhelmingly positive. TBH, just staying at home and watching YouTube videos (on the same…
One point that wasn't mentioned: It has a performance-oriented alternative implementation, called LuaJIT. With this, you can run JIT-compiled Lua code at speeds comparable to V8 (the NodeJS runtime), and almost as good…

Just to give some perspective: Without prior graphics programming experience, I was able to write a simplistic 3D engine (VERY simple, but enough for my purposes) in a week or two. I somehow assumed that it was just an…
New feed? It's an abomination. My workaround: Discord bot with WebHooks set up for only the things I care about.
