odd meta i guess. similar to one i saw about a flying lizard u played out its life in nature with attenborough type guy speaking

#

i really dig it. can tell Koolalalalalala went all out with lighting.

sour bolt
#

defo agree there just vids i watched look quite detailed and spot on lighting effects

celest musk
#

well, but you cant customize the cat, right?

#

wish that i could at least pick the color 😭

sour bolt
#

is it a ue 5 game??

celest musk
#

ue4

sour bolt
#

so no lumen?

celest musk
#

who is lumen? :p

sour bolt
#

ue5 new lighting ?

celest musk
#

ik, but yea its without lumen

sour bolt
#

wow

#

looks brill

#

imagine it ported

celest musk
#

skills > newest tech

sour bolt
#

hahaha

celest musk
#

imagine it at 20fps?

sour bolt
#

activates big brain

celest musk
#

while it already looks beautiful in UE4

sour bolt
#

wouldnt be 20fps in ue5 tho

#

but maybe not as many as ue4

#

idk

celest musk
#

well, overall lumen/vsm etc. seem to be quite the fps killers

#

at least that's what i take from #lumen so far πŸ˜„

sour bolt
#

ahh

deep glen
sour bolt
#

ppl "why lumen kill my fps"

#

doing a lot it would seem

celest musk
#

thats really nice, considering it's >6 years old

sour bolt
#

yup thats cool

Hey I'm not sure where to post this, but does anyone know how to set different depots in steam to download for specific languages? I have all the depots set to the different languages but when I select the language in steam it doesn't download it

ok

supple apex
#

Why did UE move from Physx to Chaos again? Was it really license cost?
I thought Physx was free.

timber viper
#

Tons of reasons

#

Not sure was physx was able to do that but Chaos is able to tick async

#

Better replication support in that case

pearl elk
#

More control too, Epic can roll out Chaos updates as part of game updates rather than relying on a third party installer which could cause incompatibilities/issues

#

As a non American, Roth IRA is the retirement fund right? And do you have to contribute to it yourself out of your own income?

primal summit
#

employers often offer, as a benefit, a fractional or full 401k match

timber viper
#

@sand oxide I think Epic's coroutine library could be made for Verse, do you think that implementation can be a base for it's scripting layer?

#

Since there are rumours it'll be presented at Fortnite Creative 2.0 (late 2022), upcoming GC feature might be related with that too

scarlet cedar
gusty star
#

no

gusty star
scarlet cedar
#

Oh

gusty star
#

yeah πŸ™‚

scarlet cedar
#

I mean here in Australia is a legal requirement that your employer contribute to your retirement fund πŸ˜‰

gusty star
#

#america xD

pearl elk
#

Im super thanks for asking

gusty star
#

Canada has similar tax advantaged accounts but I honestly forget what the rules are for employer contributions.

primal summit
gusty star
#

the one trick the IRS hates!

primal summit
#

Hey, the only way anyone could get a charge to stick to Al Capone was the IRS for tax evasion on his criminal earnings!

gusty star
#

no kidding eh, they have a reputation to uphold xD

primal summit
#

Always pay your taxes on extortion, racketeering, and drug sale profits!

gusty star
#

Yeah

#

honestly compared to the IRS and shiet Canada is really lacking in the anti-crime legislation/KYC/anti-money laundering

#

no RICO-style laws

primal summit
#

Aure, pissing off SOCOM or the FBI is not ideal, but the IRS won't stop.

gusty star
#

Yeah

#

but if you're a drug dealer and you kill a fed

#

you're royally fucked

#

the DEA will bring the hammer down on you

#

hell the whole weight of the US justice apparatus will come down lol

primal summit
#

yeah, but I'd still rather face that than the IRS

gusty star
#

fair lol

#

they really are that scary eh?

primal summit
#

well, if I get out after a drug hit, at least my wages won't be garnished

gusty star
#

true lmao

#

but if you do have large sums of unexplainable cash, the police can seize it in some states (civil asset forfeiture)

#

tho in Canada the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) will also garnish your wages and even freeze accounts if you owe them money lol

#

but they usually don't fine you if you mess up your taxes, depending how bad it is

#

you usually have to be a repeat offender for them to come after you

primal summit
#

irs will too, so if I have to do the same time in prison, at least I want my full mcdonalds salary

gusty star
#

Yeah fair. Tho if you get hit with a felony you're options are basically mcdonalds or homelessness it seems. being a convict is no joke in america.

#

atleast thats the vibe i've got

supple apex
#

Big mac and fries sounds tempting at the moment....

#

🍟

primal summit
#

As I understand it, a lot of that stems from a certain bias: many felons are poorly educated and wouldn't be getting non-service jobs to begin with, not without working their way up to it. I'm not making a comment on background, education, and criminal propensity, that's a horridly loaded subject.
Many employers will overlook felonies not related to their business though. Theft may well make it hard to get work as a hotel housekeeper or retail employee just as much as embezzlement makes it hard to work with company money or get a job doing anything in a bank or IP theft will keep you out of IT and engineering; at that point you are a verifiable risk.

gusty star
#

Yeah that makes sense.

primal summit
#

#

I'm cancelling my Euro trip because fuck leaving the few months of winter here for a heatwave in Europe haha

#

I'm just going to go when it's cold and grim, and I'll love it

primal summit
#

and I'm looking at being home for 2 weeks after this 2 week trip before I spend a month in austria

gusty star
#

I have nothing but learning UE planned for sept

#

just have to get some PC parts to upgrade my rig and get a rider sub and im good to go.

#

But on the flipside I also live with my parents lol, and winter in Canada can be long, miserable and dark

How's the travel?
Mandatory mask and quarantine still a thing?

primal summit

it's really busy at the airports

#

everyone's flying again, making up for lost time

#

I haven't been on a flight that wasn't overbooked

#

Aside from the random Activation, I created this one additional field on the gameplay ability activation section, placed it right, commented in the same style etc. Feel like a pro fucking dev, till I stumble on the most basic thing again haha

ye i heard schiphol is hell rn

primal summit
#

no testing either, I got covid my first trip to oregon

gusty star

primal summit
#

this is my third in 2 months

#

trip to oregon

gusty star
#

oh damn eh

supple apex
#

Guess the hysteria phase is over at this point, glad to hear that.

primal summit
#

and 6th weeklong or longer trip since early may

gusty star
#

jeez thats intense yo

primal summit
#

it's hard on us

#

but by the end of the year the travel will mostly stop

gusty star
#

Thats good to know, atleast you can look forward to that

#

and I mean we're already almost halfway thru the last week of the month, so its getting closer and closer to the year end.

primal summit

yep

I just look forward to winter so I can complain about missing summer again

primal summit
#

ugh... it's a birthday problem...

gusty star
#

honestly by winter time I should have a taste of UE and Blender, enough to know how the next while is gonna be.

#

ye the classic birthday problem

primal summit
#

(1/5)*(1/100) seems right, but it's not

gusty star
#

when i was backpacking europe i was in the Guiness Sky Bar in dublin, and was having a pint.

#

some random people walk up, ask if they can share the table. i ask where they are from. turns out they are from the same city i am lol -_-

tulip orbit
#

thankfully I'm in an apartment. But I get the evening sun and its freaking HOT 😦

primal summit
tulip orbit
#

atleast till they get more of the new building next to me built

primal summit
#

and it's skewed by statistics, but we lack enough info to know typical battery charge distributions, if time of day and time of hour impacts it, and cell tower distribution relative to population and impeding architecture

tulip orbit
#

no point of talking about it until you have all those details and have been peer reviewed. or you'll just make a fool of yourself. πŸ€ͺ

primal summit
#

indeed

#

I'm still trying to get a grant for a study I proposed in another server...

#

It is often said that a broken clock is right twice a day(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8), but is this really true? In this paper, we investigate common failure modes of modern and historically common clocks and determine if they would be correct exactly twice in a 24 hour period.

gusty star
#

meanwhile it was recently found out that alzheimers researchers faked a bunch of their results to get grant money -_-

primal summit
#

it could be 40 pages of citations of that adage...

gusty star
#

the whole amyloid beta plaque theory is basically in question afaik

#

aka the most promising results in the past while

primal summit
#

guess they weren't really promising, just promised

gusty star
#

sad really, its really the families that were given the hope that have really been shafted here ya know?

A lot of research is faked or otherwise irreproducible, it's just how science goes

broken sigil
noble plaza
#

Your ability to make a living depends on publishing papers, while actual interesting topics and data aren't something you can just go fishing for

#

A friend of mine got a PhD (and masters) on one topic, yet made no real progress, aside from ruling out lots of possible/ proposed mechanisms of action that were theorised. Safe to say she's not winning any acolades for that

regal pecan
#

Disproving cold fusion has got to be worth an accolade, at least.

night grove
#

Are you talking about the old cold fusion experiment where the measurements were inaccurate?

regal pecan
#

I've been led to believe that someone proved that "cold" fusion can't produce more energy than it consumes.

noble plaza
#

No method of power generation does? One way or the other, energy goes in, efficiency losses occur, and energy goes out in another, more useful form

This dude really re-made scratch but worse, and called it the first product of its kind SMH

Blasphemy, ban him from #cpp

Oh hahaha right

#

Maybe it's the only Verse in visual programming languages

cursive crypt
#

Epic already announced it

deep copper
cursive crypt
#

tho, maybe they didnt TM it? (kek)

noble plaza
#

/environment I guess

cursive crypt
#

It is text scripting language, this can pretend for lawsuit I imagine.

noble plaza
#

Once it's actually out and about, I wonder if they'll sue this project straight away

#

Would be a funny reversal from the Apple sitch

deep copper
#

poor guy, already having no constumers, now a big company wants them out

noble plaza
#

He literally decided to (apparently) trademark a name he stole, for a product directly inspired by the creator's products. 100% deserves a wooping

#

Verse was announced, unofficially, first though (it seems)

broken sigil
deep copper
#

why did they pick Verse though? as in the English poem verse thing?

noble plaza
#

If he doesn't sue Epic he'll void his own trademark anyway, by non-defence

#

Assuming US

deep copper
#

can't he just say he didn't know they existed

noble plaza

who stole what

#

deep copper
#

also why python xD that's literally the easiest language to type, takes least amount of words and syntax, did they hate indentations ?!

cursive crypt

#

And Python is fun because of the silly one-liners, which would be more like 25 noders

#

That the joke part

deep copper
#

every single word name is taken now a days

pearl elk
#

I saw in the supermarket the other day it looks like Googles parent company makes soup now

deep copper
#

why are they all even trying so hard to come up with normal one word names
maybe use something that means nothing like google

#

i thought it didn't?

noble plaza
pearl elk
#

Google is the largest number isnt it

regal pecan
#

googol != google

noble plaza
#

Like Facebook sounds like the devil, Meta just sounds like a lame big co doing fuck all

regal pecan
#

Although it did inspire it, so

deep copper
#

ah

#

so instead of meta they could have used meat or mate

noble plaza
deep copper
#

so smaller than infinite?

noble plaza
#

"Yeah I worked on video delivery platform for Mate Co."

pearl elk
#

Google changed though out of fear of losing the trademark right, because its become so synonymous with internet search

deep copper
#

Meta Quest sounds so bland tbh compared to Oculus Rift

well Oculus Rift sounds like it actually means something, its like a portal for your eyes into another dimension

they just raised the price of the Quest 2 btw πŸ˜›

yeah it looks abit like UScript where you need the game code to get the most out of it

#

very much like the way state code used to be done though

deep copper
#

top gif for verse atm

pearl elk
#

so from now on all programmers will be named john

deep copper
#

i wonder what that timestamp is for there

timber viper
#

they removed it

#

i thought it was Epic's verse for a while

noble plaza
#

Wow that's misleading lol

#

Supporting is probably following the Twitter account or something vague. "Trusted" usually implies active usage/ reliance

#

I just love how all these product pages make their product sound like the first of its kinda. Everything's REVOLUTIONARY

deep copper
#

ofc, if it's not then you won't get the support

#

but he is losing way too many points for authenticity

#

specially since their audience would be knowledgeable

deep copper
#

does anyone know what meta is upto btw?

gusty star
#

i thought zuck was going all in on the metaverse thing? or do you mean a different meta?

#

Fortnite, Roblox, and VRC are basically MetaVerse

gusty star
#

hmm

noble plaza
#

The tech companies want everything you do online to be in the one place they have some control over

regal pecan
#

It's so ill defined they could change direction at any point. But right now everything they've stated resembles Second Life.

second life huh πŸ€” i guess it's clear from the name but i will look into that anyway

Symmetry is hard as fuck, you need to do lots of work on it to achieve something even near parity, especially for arm stuff. Legs, well while walking there's not much preference, so both see a lot of use anyawy

#

Does anyone know how this was made?

#

It's NOT an APNG.

deep copper
#

most probably a trick with how discord compresses images

noble plaza
#

Looks like some form of interlacing

#

Both seem to have that diagonal pattern

deep copper
glacial finch
#

It must be some kind of software or website that combines two pictures together in this way.

noble plaza
#

Diagonals need right angled triangles SMH

glacial finch
#

It's clever but I can't seem to find any information about it.

Is it two pictures combined?

Oh I was thinking of stenographers

cursive crypt

Hmmm, I did?

cursive crypt
#

glacial finch
noble plaza
#

Oh you're looking for like a tool to create those images

glacial finch
#

Yeah, I figure there must be something that people are using to make them.

#

This guy said he was working on a tool to do it, so I'm going to ask him if he managed to do it.

noble plaza
#

Why do you think it's not an APNG BTW

glacial finch
#

APNG's don't have the interlacing effect these ones do. APNG's work by being an animation that doesn't play until it opens in browser, so it shows 1 image for the first frame, then switches when opened.
These images have like an interlacing effect that seems to be accomplished via colour or lighting effects or something like that.

noble plaza
#

I'd think transparency more so, it's fully opaque initially, and then on a translucent background later

glacial finch
#

Yeah, true or that. I don't really mind how it's done tbh, I just know there must be some software that people are using to make these and I wanna find out how/what. varideLaugh

#

That's a good one.

#

Did you make it?

heavy palm
#

I see one pic on my mac and another one on my phone 😦

That, then pip install matplotlib

#

ahhh ok

#

BTW that script won't work as is, it's got hardcoded paths and all

#

It will if you run it in a directory with Wheres-waldo-wally-google-maps-380.png being the "busy image" and kitty.png being the "inj" image

i think there's some misunderstanding here

#

a hug is bolder than just wrists

glacial finch
#

Hmmm, well it doesn't seem to be working for me.

#

I'm sure it's just cause i'm so inexperienced with python tho lol.

#

So, with this thing here, i copy and paste it in a notepad file and save it as a .py file, right?

#

But I have to changed the 'Wheres-waldo-wally-google-maps-380.png' and 'kitty.png' to the right image names right?

#

or have images with those names.

#

and i have to run it in a directory with those images

#

so, i've created a 'coding' folder and put all of it in that, would that do it?

noble plaza
#

Yeah it should

noble plaza
glacial finch
#

All I get is this and then it stops.

#

I left it for like 10 minutes or so, but it hasn't done anything after.

noble plaza
#

Hmm looks like it's working OK

#

no output.png right? An you've installed matplotlib?

it worked!!

Just checking, does this work for you?

glacial finch

for me it just like makes it slightly paler or something.

#

wow that's weird.

#

the other ones work for me just fine.

#

do you think the size of the images matters? i specifically made both of them 800x600. wasn't sure if it'd make a difference.

noble plaza
#

Seems like it doesn't work on images you post yourself, that's all

#

The one I posted doesn't work for me, assumin it works for you

Fair, inconsistent technique then. The image I copied and pasted did work for me though

I don’t think I can copy paste it out to the plug-in. Basically the plugins cef is out dated and β€œinsecure” and Unreal’s built in does not handle pop ups in the same way so no good as is unless you can think of a trick that works. Blui is the plug-in

# deep copper and how are you?

I'm doing well. I'm playing some Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt. Its a nice little spin on the BR genre, with vampires and this nice cyber goth / alternative aesthetic. Otherwise I've just sort of being hanging out all morning. also I ordered some computer parts last night to get my rig ready for UE5, woo woo (just some more RAM and an SSD lol)

i can see why people like vampires

gusty star

Theres a fair bit of twist on BR mechanic already. you regenerate instead of bleed out when you get downed. you can feed on civilians but don't let them see you! you can run and jump around, assasins creed style. that sort of thing.

deep copper

that sounds kinda cool

and i recall gamers saying "hard games are fun, easy games are boring"

gusty star
#

exactly

deep copper
#

so good!

gusty star
#

would explain too why the dark souls series is so so popular

#

or even the cult popularity of dwarf fortress haha

deep copper
#

i guess there's some fame to gain if you do something cool in those

gusty star
#

definently

#

and the newest title in dark souls was acclaimed enough to get GRRM aboard

deep copper
#

oh that's nice !

gusty star
#

like could you imagine getting your favourite author to write some of the story?

#

"yo stephen king? how do you feel about writing some sci-fi psychological horror?"

deep copper
#

xD

#

dreamy

pearl elk
#

umm Stephen King has written some sci-fi

gusty star
#

yeah you're right, but he doesn't do it too often

#

tho i guess dreamcatcher and cell are fairly sci-fi in terms of ideas or atleast modern

pearl elk
#

I actually quite liked The Tommyknockers and The Running Man

gusty star
#

Hell yeah, right i forgot about those two.

#

hes written a lot of books at this point tho xD

pearl elk
#

those are probably as close to scifi as he gets though, Gunslinger is more fantasy same with IT

gusty star
#

yeah eh

#

the talisman is def fantasy too, needful things is more paranormal/religious

pearl elk
#

yeah Needful Things is like Thinner, its more about curses

gusty star
#

100 percent

#

folklore type stuff

pearl elk
#

Firestarter has a slight bit of scifi but I think that sort of supernatural power like The Shining and Dr Sleep is more fantastical

gusty star
#

plus honestly he might be down to work on video games. Hes worked on other peoples IP before. He wrote the intro arc to American Vampire (a comic) and its insanely good. correction: he wrote every other arc for the first five issues lol (5 arcs total as each issue had two arcs intertwined)

pearl elk
#

unfortunately these big names dont always make super amazing stuff, like Spielberg, he can be amazing but also can tank

gusty star
#

yeah true eh

#

I think Spielberg is close to retirement too tbh

pearl elk
#

I watched that Under the Dome show, it wasnt terrible but you spend the entire time waiting for something to happen

gusty star
#

Yeah eh.

pearl elk
#

The Green Mile on the other hand, masterful

gusty star
#

Yeah for sure.

#

I read Under The Dome as a teen so its been awhile but it was alright.

#

I feel like SK writes people losing their mind really well lol, like total community breakdown

#

(this is the book tho mind you)

pearl elk
#

yeah The Stand was really good for that, few crazy people in that πŸ˜›

gusty star
#

I've always wanted to read The Stand but its so daunting lol

#

and I already have two massive tome-esque books on my To-Be-Read list lol

pearl elk
#

Ive only seen the older TV Mini Series

gusty star
#

I feel that

pearl elk
#

I kinda wish Spielberg and King would work together, they could get this crazy mix of Cujo and Jaws

gusty star
#

That'd be wild, they probably have similar sensibilities given their proximity in age. plus they both probably know some of the same people.

#

well given that their both celebrities anyway lol

pearl elk
#

yeah if they do something adult orientated, Im not sure Stephen King would be interested in working on something aimed at kids or teens

gusty star
#

yeah good point lol

pearl elk
#

Spielberg does kinda like his kids movies but the dialog in The Goonies is so well written, then again... King did Stand By Me

gusty star
#

They could probably pull it off if it was a story that was like either of those

#

i really think it would come down to the project itself

pearl elk
#

well hopefully we get lucky

#

I always forget Josh Brolin was the older brother in The Goonies

gusty star
#

ikr

#

did you see that recent film Everything, Everywhere, All at Once?

pearl elk
#

nah, I saw it advertised

gusty star
#

the husband in that movie.. its data from the goonies lol! his real name is Ke Huy Quan

#

talk about a career comeback, he slayed in that film ngl

pearl elk
#

slick shoes

gusty star
#

xD

#

apparently he worked as a stunt coordinator after the goonies for some time, and then came back to acting for this new movie lol

#

its a super good movie ngl, perfect balance of drama/action/comedy lol

pearl elk
#

I kinda like when actors are more regular looking people rather than all pretty celebrity

gusty star
#

I agree

#

Ke has insane emotional range too. That movie took me places i didn't expect to go.

i feel that lol

#

I need to start the new season of The Boys

#

#

etc etc

pearl elk
#

The Boys was really great but the fact its a serial bugs me alittle bit, that it feels like it goes full circle every season and we never get anywhere

gusty star
#

yeah thats so fair eh

#

the new LOTR is starting sept 1st too T_T

pearl elk
#

that said atleast there is consistent payoff, when its all a big build up you start to worry if it'll be worth it

gusty star
#

#

i get what you mean

#

don't want it to be all smoke no bang

#

plus theres a few shows on apples streamign service that i've been meaning to watch too F

pearl elk
#

yeah that and some shows have these silly tie up episodes where everyone lives happily ever after, like a Fast and Furious bbq

gusty star
#

lmao

#

i know what you mean

#

the fandom is terrible but I think Rick and Morty consistently hits its story beats, even if the ideas are zany af lol. Dan Harmon is a fairly capable writer imo, but he did do community too so

#

but after seeing some of the stuff Justin Roiland is workign on now, id say some of that zaniness is just Roiland lol

He's just an average American interviewer, pushing you to say something they want you to say.

The BBC ones are more fun though, no matter what the interviewer believes they will be asking you devil's advocate style questions and actually let you answer them. That produces enough braindead takes in itself at times lol

Anyone with itch.io know what’s wrong? I put my game on itch like 3 hours ago and when I try to find it with another account it doesn’t show up even though it’s public. To find my game I have to search my username and find the game there.

Maybe they're just not indexed in the search yet?

#

Looks fantastic

#

Everything I posted seems to be correct but I can’t find it and when I search my name it says 0 games published but i can click it and find the game that’s clearly published lol. Maybe it’ll show up by tomorrow hopefully

slim atlas
#

it takes a while lol

#

you put it on the page 3 hours ago

#

itll take at least 24 to update everything

mortal skiff
#

I saw games in the recent that claim they were put up like an hour ago but yeah your right i’m probably just being panicky

slim atlas
#

you are panicky.

apparently it's 1251

#

I guess const strings are preallocated somewhere so taken by reference

broken sigil
#

How the hell does that make sense lol

proud jay
#

well the first makes sense, you have a char var, so it's by reference

#

the second is an rvalue, so for optimization it would go for the && operator

#

the third again, no clue why that compiles

Also that 5 makes absolutely 0 sense

#

the 'c++' being an int?

proud jay
#

yeah that one is a mystery to me

#

the fact that it compiles at all

broken sigil
#

Yeah

proud jay
#

it does give a warning though

broken sigil
#

I have a suspicion that this might not produce the same result on different compilers

proud jay
#

I tested on clang compiler

#

same on msvc

#

doesn't even give the warning 😭

short grove
#

so far it's the same for every compiler i've tried

#

even the weirder ones all 1251

broken sigil
#

Hm that 5 is still a mystery to me
Is that UB territory, it is very sus that it treats as an int

The most logical would be to me at least 1222 or 1221

proud jay
#

I guess multiple characters don't fit in the memory of char so it's going for int

#

but why it allows multiple characters in a char thing is still crazy

#

never knew that was possible

broken sigil
#

Yeah same

#

Wonder if it would choose wchar if it was an option

#

But then again why didn't it choose 1 or 2 is still a question

proud jay
noble plaza
#

What about optimisation levels?

broken sigil
#

This is definitely stepping into slightly UB territory I feel like

#

And the fact that msvc don't warn is slightly worrying

noble plaza
#

This is some Javascript level stuff for sure

#

You'd likely be able to, with some anti-UB compiler options. I hope...

proud jay
#

apparently it's defined that multi character literals are stored as integer type

I guess char == uint8, many chars == them combined into an int?

broken sigil
#

Implementation defined value πŸ₯²

short grove
#

up to four would make sense

noble plaza
#

Multiple inheritance, B -> C -> C++, nice

#

Even the languages projects are OOP now

broken sigil
#

Ofc it's a thing.... Because it makes 0 sense lol

Especially the part where it's implementation defined πŸ˜… πŸ₯² 😭

the third is common way to promote to int when cant fit in char. It allows some nice quirky syntax.
The last makes sense when you consider it is const char*

proud jay
#

TIL

#

will never use multicharacter literals in my life though

cursive crypt
#

never say never

proud jay
#

but it will be never

#

trust me on this one

cursive crypt
#

I have seen it several times.

short grove
#

i think opencv uses those in part iirc

noble plaza
#

I'd hope most code reviews would quickly decline this, unless it's a common thing for the project

cursive crypt
#

... and maybe (kek) wrote it myself, ago.

proud jay
#

you're fired

broken sigil
#

Still wondering in what situation is that useful

cursive crypt
#

iirc was more about documentation.

proud jay
#

this seems like semi useful use

cursive crypt
#

so, say you assign consts

#

then by expanding it like that you can get better understanding of why exactly that value

proud jay
#

but still

#

never use it

#

implementation-defined nuff said

cursive crypt
#

impl.defined is pretty useful to know

#

Many things have that same status

#

e.g. you all rely on char being signed

#

But is impl. defined.
