    Or if your pulling 4 byte data from an AtoD converter and it’s ordered 2, 3, 0, 1 for a fixed point value that you need to convert to a standard float at an extremely high rate or else the ring buffer will fill and you’ll start losing data.

    That code review was a good time.


  • China is still pretty far behind on all sorts of tech.

    Stealth: China just figured out how to hide the exhaust inside the airframe, the US was doing that in the 70s. They don’t have stealth missles the US has thousands.

    Missles: China has missles fueled with water, liquid fuel are less stealthy than solid. China is much closer here than most areas.

    Logistics: US cargo planes can cary more farther. Russia has shown what bag logistics can do.

    Boats: while China has more boats they are less capable. China has two aircraft carriers with one on the way US has 11 with 5 on the way.

    Asymmetric warfare: US has demonstrated capability to handle drones and cruze missiles in a real world scenario, no one else has.
