Why do you need so beefy hardware? One could think that a normal Mac Pro would be enough to do even extremely sophisticated flow simulations.
Please provide evidence that all of the sysadmins who criticize systemd no idea what they are even talking about.
They have the proof of burden, not me.
I think this is why Minecraft is so popular. Things are built up from simple bricks, and anybody can pick it up and start building. You don't need to take a course to figure out how to build stuff.
Yep, that is exactly the reason. There is no tedious-looking CAD-like program to learn, one can instead start right away messing around with blocks in a natural environment. It is also surprising how large architectural things people wind up building in the game, even when one might think that the most complex stuff would already be much more efficient to design inside a dedicated software for the purpose. I guess the game also gives the illusionary feeling that you are building something concrete instead of just drawing some lines on engineering paper.
Bash scripts are not where the bottleneck is. Switching that to compiled code won't get you much of a speedup.
It will give you more robustness, though. Scripts are a huge minefield and require very careful input validation.
