I just migrated from PHPBB to Simple Machines Forum because of all of the hacking and spam bot accounts I was getting on the PHPBB boards. I'm not sure if SMF is any more secure from these things, but we will see... If you have any issues with your moved account or using the new boards please let me know.

Also, the new URL for the forums is http://forums.gillius.org/, so please update your bookmarks. I will try to keep that URL as permanent as possible, however URLs underneath that may change if the software changes.

I’ve added the CVS changelog to the current progress section and also added an article about a potential design issue with GNE about how truly effective a multithreaded network engine can be in a game? It’s an open problem and I encourage discussion about it in the fourms, especially if you have designed something around this.

I was playing around a bit with the site design (the navigation bar on the left), and just for fun I put up some benchmarks from my two DVD drives. You can find the benchmarks in the articles section.

For no reason at all but because I wanted to try to learn it, I’ve added an RSS feed to my site. Firefox should be able to pick it up automatically. For other readers, the RSS url is: http://www.gillius.org/rss/news.xml

I am further tweaking the look of my site. If you see any bad-looking stuff or messed up stuff, please contact me and let me know. Also, I’m no artist, so if anyone talented wants to make a Gillius’s Programming site logo, please contact me as well.

I’ve completely redone the look of the site. Also, I’ve majorly updated the first of my tutorials, the C tutorial – its last update was in 1999! Check it out in the tutorials section. I know there are issues with the current old news section, and there are probably some issues on some very old content that didn’t use CSS (probably in my tutorials from 7 years ago). If you find anything, let me know.

The new Gillius.org forums are now up. No more crappy “swirve.com” super basic forums with no security (of people’s identies) or fixed width fonts for posting code. This new forum is hosted by gillius.org and is powered by phpBB. It will probably be low traffic like the old forum, but I will be around to answer posts at the same level I answer e-mails.

It’s time for Gillius’s Programming to make a move to a new site – gillius.org! This is its third move, but thanks to RIT for hosting my original site for over 5 years now.

I added two new algorithms, and pages and pages of more benchmarks from other systems. Check it out. The source code also has been improved and refactored.

I examined five different algorithms for memory managing a particle system, and wrote an article about it. You can view that article here.
