it depends on what you are measuring

but that looks like from the graph that is the start of the measure

it could also just be the first entry into your data set, in which you would delete the corresponding data

if you give me some more information about what you are measuring i could be of more help

crystal furnace This is my first time with discord.js-v14, anyone know why my shard always die? ...

You've got it mixed up, that's not how sharding works, you're passing your bot.js file to your sharding manager which just exports a client and it doesn't even login, that's why it exits the process

#

Read through https://discordjs.guide/sharding/#getting-started

discord.js Guide

Imagine a guide... that explores the many possibilities for your discord.js bot.

crystal furnace Mar 7, 2023, 5:35 AM

const Bot = require('./src/Structures/bot.js');

but this should work right, I think my job is move shard code to shard.js file but it don't work too ://

earnest phoenix Mar 7, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

You're supposed to instantiate the bot and login in the file you're passing to your sharding manager

#

For example:

// bot.js
import { Client, GatewayIntentBits } from 'discord.js';

const client = new Client({
  intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds]
});

await client.login(process.env.botToken);

// index.js
import { ShardingManager } from 'discord.js';

const manager = new ShardingManager('./bot.js', {
  token: process.env.botToken
});

manager.on('shardCreate', (shard) => console.log(`Launched shard ${shard.id}`));

await manager.spawn();

So I was wondering. You can hypothetically get infinite queries on midjourney using different Accounts!, Now you can also make infinite (or many) bot account in discord developer portal, so if you were to somehow make it happen that "your bot" types "/imagine" then presses the pop up that shows that it's going to register that /imagine as a command and not a message, then type out what you provided then press enter/send then you can"

Exploit your bots for midjourney free queries and each time one runs out, you can just put your first bot's preset to your new bot and go on. Will that be possible?

Yeah! you could organize the table in many ways, if you were pulling public game stats or dev available stats, make sure youre not breaking any ToU as i have no idea what the rules for that are. But i would say thats probably what most of these reward/punishment systems for in game bots is based on

What sort of data are you looking at pulling? ive done it for a few games in the past, but just as smaller projects! if you want an example of a 3rd party using game stats, check out some applications like overwolf or fire for blizzard

quartz kindle Mar 7, 2023, 2:22 PM

you have to think of different ways to organize tabular data, i dont know what exactly your data looks like, but for example:

table a+b
id, type, value
1, "a", 500
1, "b", 400
2, "a", 200
2, "b", 840
``` or ```js
table a
id, value
1, 500
2, 200

table b
id, value
1, 400
2, 840

#

there are many options

in general separated tables are faster to access (if accessing individual data) but consume more space

Im doing alot of small side projects right now to just understand more concepts and currently im making a simple text compressor, I have this code. it does work - just not correctly since it makes the files 2x bigger, is my concept that this code uses generally even the right direction?

my current Idea was just to assing each word a number, have all number: words at the bottom and just use the numbers for the actual text

wont work

you see, with this method ur limited to 10 numbers, or 16 if ur using hex

ah, you're using _ to separate characters

#

you could use unicode chars intead, which supports up to 65k different values

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:19 PM

#

can I somehow turn a simple number to unicode in js?

#

or do I have to manually do that?

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:19 PM

#

you don't convert to unicode

#

I mean, in js ig u need to since it doesn't have char data type

#

see if there's a parseChar or smth

#

regardless, your method is quite similar to deflate compression method

#

although less efficient

surrogate pairs/triplets/quartets would be different

what would I do if I go over 65k?

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

overflow

#

it supports up to 0xFFFF

#

so going over that will result in 0x0000

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:25 PM

#

wouldnt that break the files content?

#

since im mapping a code unit to a word

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:25 PM

#

you wont be reading the content itself, you'll read the bytes

#

compressed files aren't supposed to be humanly readable

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:26 PM

#

yes but I mean when decompressing if I go over 65k I would go back to the first word, right? and then it would show wrong words

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

yes it'll break

#

but that's because you're using an inefficient method

#

as I said, you're doing what deflate already does

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

yeah, I also thought about checking if a word gets used over X times and only then map it

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

that's not the issue

#

the issue is that you're using words

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

right

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

in a compression algo you don't care about words at all, you need to focus on bytes

#

deflate counts repeated sequences of bytes and map them into pairs of bytes (0xFFFF)

#

you can also simply ditch chars altogether and use 4 bytes (0xFFFFFFFF), which will allow up to 4 billion words

#

note that the more bytes you use, the bigger the output will be

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

hm, Id just want it to compress with only changing text for now, no bytes since I havent done anything with bytes, really

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

up to you, but it'll expand most content instead of compressing

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

how would using bytes change that though? isnt it the same in the end?

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:40 PM

#

this for example: _555__82__556__557__554__71__152_ = 33 chars
in bytes becomes: ȫRȬȭȪG = 7 chars

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

🧐

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:47 PM

#

those are char representation of the bytes

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:47 PM

#

numbers are just bytes though arent they

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:47 PM

#

only inside memory

#

inside files they are chars

#

so 555 isn't the number 555, but the character 5 repeated 3 times

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:48 PM

#

ooh

#

how exactly did you turn those 33 chars into 7 chars?

#

ah no nvm

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:50 PM

#

I simply used the char representation instead of the readable number

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:50 PM

#

yeah, I noticed a bit late

#

but for example with 1 it doesnt output anything

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:54 PM

#

?

#

yes, because chars below 40 or so are mostly control characters

#

but they are there

#

a quick example I wrote, based on ur algo + what I said

#

I added an offset of 60 to have visible chars at all

#

the text has a poor compression because it's separated by whitespace, this is what I mean when I said yours wont compress as much

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 4:58 PM

#

its def progress though, from compressed being 100kb bigger to only 6kb bigger, still bigger though

#

what should I seperate by then?

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 4:59 PM

#

nothing

neon leaf Mar 7, 2023, 5:00 PM

#

now we getting to bytes again aint we

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 5:00 PM

#

if u use 2 bytes (1 char) for every value you know for sure it'll be 1 value every 2 bytes

#

you don't need any separator, because every char will be the value itself

wow, I fixed my regex and the file is 10kb smaller

#

well stll alot of room for improvement

lyric mountain Mar 7, 2023, 5:10 PM

#

oh, btw

#

if ur gonna split by fixed amount of chars use /(?<=\G.{number})/

#

else it'll split only the first match

#

and remember to use (?<=) block else you'll delete the splitted part

#

last but not least, you can separate your dictionary in a separate file

#

cuz u only require it when decompressing

#

however this will also mean you need to transfer the two files when sharing it

I see I can put shard: auto like some people doing in the bot main file and it work, but this sharding can only set auto and I feel something is different from traditional way.

#

Apart from ShardingManager, discord.js also supports a sharding mode known as Internal sharding. Internal sharding creates multiple websocket connections from the same process, and does not require major code changes. To enable it, simply pass shards: 'auto' as ClientOptions to the Client constructor. However, internal sharding is not ideal for bigger bots due to high memory usage of the single main process and will not be further discussed in this guide.

#

Oh, that is explaining why I am feel strange ://

lament rock Mar 8, 2023, 12:47 AM

#

the ideal way of sharding is cluster based which means the bot is spread out among multiple VPS' and each cluster manages a couple shards (however many can fit into the VPS without destroying the RAM and CPU)

boreal iron Mar 8, 2023, 12:52 AM

#

The question is if that is more cost efficient than a stronger dedicated server

#

Load balancing of course makes the most sense especially on multiple machines also to prevent the entire thing from being down once one server is down

#

I Wonder how many servers a bot has to be in to reach the limit of a common dedicated server using an optimized way of handling and caching requests and data

lament rock Mar 8, 2023, 12:56 AM

#

My bot is TINY and adding more guilds doesn't really increase memory usage. 6.7k guilds can fit into 100MB

crystal furnace Mar 8, 2023, 1:35 AM

#

Internal sharding working alright

#

It increase only some%

#

Not a very big number if your bot not like Dyno, Probot, ...

#

But this way sharding working better.

#

as discord.js said they will not provide any more information about this, so I am asking here :))

lament rock Mar 8, 2023, 5:40 AM

#

because it's a not recommended sharding method

#

for public bots

#

even for private bots, you're unlikely to reach any shards other than shard 0

quartz kindle Mar 8, 2023, 6:16 AM

#

in my experience, internal sharding works fine for at least 16 shards

#

it can probably handle up to 30 something without much issue, depending on your intents and stuff

#

the main thing that destroys your bot is presence events, so leave them disabled if you can, and the initial guild creates especially wjen you have big bot sharding

tired panther Mar 8, 2023, 7:04 AM

#

quartz kindle in my experience, internal sharding works fine for at least 16 shards

Internal Sharding works fine with up to 30k Guilds. The way djs handles shards .... they keep disconnecting and the initial connecting phase takes pretty long. @boreal iron I had to start syncing the ratelimits upon 100k Guilds. You actually dont need no cache, proper ratelimit syncing will allow a cold cache. For the sake implicity you cache guilds & roles.

That's because you've spliced the element at that index, but you're still trying to access it even though it's gone

And I recommend migrating to slash-commands, it's much easier to handle arguments with and validate their values, instead of going for hacky solutions like arg shifting and whatnot

#

And there's also the https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/findIndex method you can use to find the index instead of using forEach() to iterate through all the elements and find the index

Array.prototype.findIndex() - JavaScript | MDN

The findIndex() method returns the index of the first element in an array that satisfies the provided testing function.
If no elements satisfy the testing function, -1 is returned.

            window.drawImage(s.sprite, (int)drawPos.x, (int)drawPos.y, s.width, s.height, null);
        }
    }
}
``` which is where all of the images actually get drawn. Super basic.
```java
public class Canvas extends JPanel {
    private final RenderSystem renderSystem;

    public Canvas(RenderSystem system) {
        renderSystem = system;
    }

    @Override
    public void paintComponent(Graphics window) {
        super.paintComponent(window);

        Graphics2D graph = (Graphics2D) window;

        BufferedImage back = (BufferedImage) (createImage(getWidth(), getHeight()));

        Graphics graphToBack = back.createGraphics();

        renderSystem.update(graphToBack);

        graph.drawImage(back, null, 0, 0);
    }
}
``` this is the JPanel for the entire application. Basically just a raw canvas with double buffering.

🚪🚶‍♂️ Swing

rustic nova Mar 9, 2023, 5:53 AM

#

Have been there, do not wish to be there again

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 5:54 AM

#

Here's my bullet class, which is basically just a sprite that moves a little: ```java
public class Bullet extends GameObject {
private static BufferedImage image;
static {
try {
File file = new File("src/com/waffle/test/images/projectile.png");
image = ImageIO.read(file);
} catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("ERROR: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
private TransformComponent transform;
private SpriteRenderComponent sprite;
private int speed;

public Bullet(int speed, float x, float y) {
    this.speed = speed;
    sprite = new SpriteRenderComponent(new Vec2f(), image, 50, 50);
    transform = new TransformComponent(new Vec2f(x, y));
}

public void update(float dt) {
    transform.position.addY(speed * dt);
}

@Override
public void start() {

}

}

#

All of this is put together in a Game class that has an update method called by a ScheduledExecutorService every 16ms (roughly 60fps)

#

Within that game class, this is basically what that looks like: ```java
@Override
public void run() {
if(window != null) {
this.update(UPDATE_DELAY_MS / 1000.0f);
}
}

public void update(float dt) {
    // Update other systems here
    physicsSystem.update(dt);
    world.update(dt);
    window.repaint();
}

#

I'm thinking MAYBE it's something to do with window.repaint(), but that should be just fine because it's (afaik) just calling the paintComponent method again, aka updating my render system

#

Oh and world is the ECS, world.update(dt) just calls the update method of every GameObject in the ECS

#

However I have confirmed that only 4% of the program execution time is spent on this Game.update(float dt) method, and the majority of the time is spent in renderSystem.update(graphToBack) because of the Graphics2D.drawImage() method

#

So yeah

#

that's my problem

#

lol

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:03 AM

#

wheat mesa So, I have a system in my ECS that looks like this: ```java public class RenderS...

Where's the entities coming from?

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:04 AM

#

It's a HashSet of integers given from the ECS

#

Basically just a set of IDs that point to entities with certain components that the System can use

#

Not really important for the scope of the issue

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:05 AM

#

I feel like it's set is getting much bigger than expected so it's causing the operations in the loop to be called way too many times, making it much slower but that might not be the case

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:06 AM

#

It shouldn't be, I can debug it real quick to confirm though

#

yeah it's accurate

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:09 AM

#

Hmm, maybe try running the update() method of the Game class (or whatever it's called) with a longer delay to see what happens?

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:09 AM

#

I mean that would decrease the framerate, but I can do that

#

It'll still encounter the same issue after I get too many entities

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:09 AM

#

It's for testing purposes anyway

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:10 AM

#

Yeah doubling the delay still encounters the same issue after I rack up about 30-40 bullet entities

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:14 AM

#

wheat mesa Yeah doubling the delay still encounters the same issue after I rack up about 30...

I haven't used Java Swing so I'm a little confused at a specific part of your code, you're creating an image using the createImage() method, but it's contents are empty? I'm not sure how that works

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:15 AM

#

createImage is just a method from JPanel

#

#

I would profile more to see which method in particular is causing the biggest use of time, but unfortunately about 85% of it tracks back to a native dll that I cannot profile methods of

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:18 AM

#

Oh wait you're updating it's graphics content with the render system update() method, I see

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:18 AM

#

Yeah

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:21 AM

#

Unfortunately I don't see what could be causing that

But you can at least profile every method you've declared in all of those classes to see which one is causing the slowness

#

That can definitely give you a hint

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 6:23 AM

#

unfortunately it all boils down to a dll here

#

that's where the profiling ends

#

Might just have to take a break for the night

#

@earnest phoenix I think I may have figured it out

#

The image I was using is like 1300x1300

#

and I'm resizing it to 50x50

#

I think that maybe a compression/resizing algorithm was taking a lot of time up

#

When I swapped to using a very small res image of like 200x175 I'm getting no lag with 1721 entities on screen

earnest phoenix Mar 9, 2023, 6:38 AM

#

Very nice, I guess Java Swing struggles a lot to handle high resolution images

#

Maybe you should try SWT

quartz kindle Mar 9, 2023, 11:08 AM

#

frequent image resizing in any graphics engine is a big no-no

#

thats why games usually have all textures and images in all supported resolutions already resized and available

#

or at least resize once and store the resized version in memory for reuse

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 11:36 AM

Not usually

But u can speed it up by disabling some things, if u don't mind poorer graphics

#

G2d comes by default configured to "balanced" mode, you can set it to "performance"

#

Also, if you're using swing it's better to use createCompatibleImage

#

And yes, don't resize images in the render flow

always normalize your ranges

quartz kindle Mar 9, 2023, 6:51 PM

(angle % 360 + 360) % 360
this will put any number, positive or negative, in the range 0-360
then you can further add another ( + 180) % 360

So

#

I have my screen height

I convert that into a percentage

#

I then have 360 (degrees) / 100

#

The degrees' minimum is -45 and maximum 85

#

And uhhh

quartz kindle Mar 9, 2023, 7:30 PM

surreal sage Mar 9, 2023, 7:30 PM

Lol no

#

So basically

#

(This is Roblox stuff)

#

I have an arm

#

The arm has a tool

#

The arm should move up and down based on the mouse's Y position

#

Now I don't want the arm to be able to do a looping

#

So I want limits

#

Being -45 and 85

#

I'm just stuck on how to do this

quartz kindle Mar 9, 2023, 7:33 PM

#

so 0 would be horizontal center

#

-45 would be down swing

#

and 85 up swing?

rustic nova Mar 9, 2023, 9:04 PM

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 9:42 PM

    @Override
    public void fillOval(int x, int y, int width, int height) {
        GL2 gl = buffer.getGL().getGL2();

        float[] xy = {
                (2f * x + 1) / WIDTH - 1, (2f * y + 1) / HEIGHT - 1,
                (2f * width + 1) / WIDTH - 1, (2f * height + 1) / HEIGHT - 1
        };

        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(xy));

        float detail = 45;
        gl.glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
        {
            double step = Math.toRadians(360 / detail);
            for (double i = 0; i < 360; i += step) {
                gl.glVertex2d(xy[0] + xy[2] * (1 + Math.cos(i)), xy[1] + xy[3] * (1 + Math.sin(i)));
            }
        }
        gl.glEnd();

        gl.glFlush();
    }

#

So, regardless what I put in glVertex2d() it doesn't move the circle

#

Ex kept if I change the multiplication, then it makes it bigger

#

I actually stopped midway when trying to debug, which is why the sout is there

#

gl.glVertex2d(xy[2] * Math.cos(i), xy[3] * Math.sin(i))

#

This will put the circle in the middle of the canvas

#

As soon as I get to the pc I'll run the code to show what it's outputting

#

Think I'll change the scale to allow me to use pixel coordinates, instead of the weird ogl mid-pixel percent coords

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

Yeah usually you use a projection matrix for that

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:15 PM

#

heh, simply fixing the coordinate matrix solved it

#

(x: 0, y: 0) | (w: 250, h: 250)

#

(x: 250, y: 250) | (w: 100, h: 100)

#

and I no longer need to do big conversions to get the correct coord

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

niceee

#

I now have an fps counter in my engine

#

pretty basic (also don't worry about the rocket ships I was stress testing a little)

#

for some reason though I'm not able to use ScheduledExecutorService to get accurate frametime, I'm measuring 64-65 fps when in theory it should be running at a max of 60

#

I would understand if it was less than 60fps, but greater than 60fps would require the service to be executing early which doesn't make much sense to me

#

@lyric mountain you have any idea why this might be happening?

hushed robin Mar 9, 2023, 10:28 PM

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:28 PM

#

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:31 PM

#

converting fps to nanos might generate some precision issues

#

especially since ur fpsCap is float

#

u can simply use millis for update rate, don't think you'd ever use a cap of 1000

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:32 PM

#

I suppose I could come to a compromise on frame precision and use microseconds so I can still get in-between ms values

#

ehh

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:32 PM

#

also, instead of an sched service u could use an infinite loop + sleep

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:32 PM

#

By using millis only I can't get good precision

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:32 PM

I mean, yeah, but the difference would be minimal

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:32 PM

#

lyric mountain also, instead of an sched service u could use an infinite loop + sleep

I have a feeling I'll run into issues with sleep

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:33 PM

java sleep only pauses the current thread, it doesn't work like c++ or alikes where it freezes the whole thing

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:33 PM

#

lyric mountain I mean, yeah, but the difference would be minimal

I more or less meant for getting standard framerates to work like 60fps and such, since 60fps would be a delay of 16.66ms and I would only be able to do either 17ms or 16ms

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:33 PM

ah

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:34 PM

I'll try using sleep rq and see if I run into any issues

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:34 PM

#

just make sure you create a new background thread

#

u can use extends Thread on your game to have itself be a thread

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:38 PM

#

Alright so using sleep seems to get a little more precise on the delay

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:40 PM

#

sleep is much more precise than sched because it tells the cpu to pause that thread

#

while sched works with queues

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:40 PM

#

ugh I hate how sleep doesn't allow you to use nanos or micros

#

requires millis + nanos

#

so annoying

might just make a helper method rq to fix that

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:41 PM

#

or is it fine to use

lyric mountain Mar 9, 2023, 10:46 PM

#

if ur waiting for a very small period of time it doesn't matter much

#

also onSpinWait() tells the cpu that loop will be going for a while

wheat mesa Mar 9, 2023, 10:46 PM

I also need to think about the math here

Since I need to sleep a different amount of time depending on how much time the last frame took to execute

registerFont doesnt play nicely with multiple fonts from the same family

instead you should use the weigth and style optinos

#

how should I approach shapes like this? (green is the desired shape, red is the actual shape)

#

both have the exact same coordinates

#

the issue of the red shape I imagine is because the poly area is calculated from the point of origin (top left)

#

the obvious fix would be starting from the middle in this case, but there's probably a mathematical way of finding the correct initial point

#

GL2 gl = canvas.getGL().getGL2();

gl.glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
{
    for (int i = 0; i < nPoints; i++) {
        gl.glVertex2i(xPoints[i], yPoints[i]);
    }
}
gl.glEnd();

gl.glFlush();
``` current code, just in case

#

hm, maybe calculate the bounding box's center and grabbing the nearest point?

you have two versions of better-sqlite3

the one that is giving the error is the v7 one used by enmap

if you really need enmap, check if there is an update that uses the newer version

@quartz kindle @earnest phoenix do you guys think this is safe from race conditions? ```c
// a global bool
bool gInitiated = false;

void someCleanupFn() {
if (gInitiated) {
gInitiated = false;
// ... code ...
}
}

// someCleanupFn is added to several close event handlers - that may be called from different threads

#

or should i use a Mutex instead

#

[and also @wheat mesa]

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 5:54 PM

#

generally it is safe yes, although it depends what exactly it is cleaning up and how it affects other threads

#

also the cleanup function itself might need a race condition protection if there is a possibility a new gInitiated is created while the cleanup function is not done cleaning the old one yet

wheat mesa Mar 10, 2023, 5:58 PM

#

Personally I would use a lock just to be safe

#

But I don’t do multithreading often

earnest phoenix Mar 10, 2023, 5:59 PM

#

radiant kraken <@180112943612952577> <@456226577798135808> do you guys think this is safe from ...

A variable that is to be modified by function(s) in multiple threads are generally safer when they use a mutex, if the value is being modified but something else tries to modify it at the same time that causes a problem

wheat mesa Mar 10, 2023, 5:59 PM

#

The general advice is whenever you have data that can be read and modified by more than one thread at a time you want to use a lock

#

Also is a lock the same thing as a mutex

#

Only reason I ask being that my CS class generally uses the term lock for these situations

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 6:01 PM

#

when the OS uses files for mutex purposes its also called lockfile

earnest phoenix Mar 10, 2023, 6:01 PM

#

Depends on what you refer to as a "lock", it's not the same terminology used for only these situations, it could also be used to keep track of lock files

wheat mesa Mar 10, 2023, 6:01 PM

#

Just looked it up, mutex is just a type of lock

#

“Mutual exclusion lock”

#

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 6:03 PM

#

also, back to the original question, usually multithreaded languages and systems have functions that only modify something if the current value of something matches the expected value

#

atomic operations are usually done that way, something like modifyVariable(new value, expected value) // only executes if the varuable's current value matches the expected value

#

and it executes the value change in an guaranteed atomic manner

wheat mesa Mar 10, 2023, 6:05 PM

#

I’m assuming this is C or C++ from looking at the syntax, and I’ve only really done multithreading in Java so I can’t really help too much

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 6:06 PM

#

im also mostly basing myself from how JS does it with sharedArrayBuffer

#

#

but its probably better and safer to use a higher level C++ mutex than low level instructions like these

lyric mountain Mar 10, 2023, 7:29 PM

#

trynna do in-place array rotation, but I can't figure out how to do it with O(n) complexity

#

like, I always lose some indexes based on the jump size

#

for example, with jump size of 1 I lose the value of the leftmost index

#

with jump size 2 I lose the leftmost 2

#

this is what I have currently, I have no idea how to achieve that without resorting to a second array or O(nx) complexity

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 7:39 PM

#

cant you use a simple variable to hold the missing value, then re-place it at the end of the loop?

lyric mountain Mar 10, 2023, 7:40 PM

#

issue is the missing value is "values" for jump > 1

#

guess I'll just go with O(n+x) for now, wost case it'll be O(2n)

#

which is creating a new array with size equal to jump size

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 7:41 PM

#

but no matter how many jumps you do, you are always reading+writing one element at a time, so you will need at most one temporary element

lyric mountain Mar 10, 2023, 7:42 PM

#

no, I mean, it'll always iterate array.length times

#

I'm not using recursion to prevent falling into O(nx)

#

like, an array with 5 elements and jump size of 3 would be shifted 3 times, so 15 operations (3 read/writes per entry)

quartz kindle Mar 10, 2023, 7:44 PM

#

hm

quartz kindle Mar 11, 2023, 3:04 AM

#

a built in function to resolve multile promises at once

bot said no

#

because it itself is also a promise

"bruh"

quartz kindle Mar 11, 2023, 3:06 AM

#

const result = await Promise.all([promise1, promise2, ...])
result.join(...)

hushed robin Mar 11, 2023, 3:07 AM

#

ok

#

let me see

#

it says .join is not a function

#

👁️👄👁️

#

i think waffles suggestion is easier than this even tho it's extra effort

#

then yoi did something wrong, but yeah you can also await in a for loop

#

althougj awaiting in a for loop is sequential and not concurrent

He probably did await Promise.all(…).join(…)

#

probably

#

Btw waffle, did u ever work with stencil?

#

Like, glStencil

wheat mesa Mar 11, 2023, 3:11 AM

#

Nope

#

My opengl work was very limited so far

#

I plan to return to it later on to learn it more

#

Either with jogl or C++

lyric mountain Mar 11, 2023, 3:11 AM

#

Meh, I need to add arbitrary shape support to the lib

#

But glScissors only allows rectangles

wheat mesa Mar 11, 2023, 3:12 AM

#

Can you not just define vertices and use glDraw(GL_TRIANGLES, …)?

lyric mountain Mar 11, 2023, 3:12 AM

#

Ah, I mean arbitrary shapes for clip

#

Not for drawing

wheat mesa Mar 11, 2023, 3:12 AM

#

Ahhhh

#

I see

lyric mountain Mar 11, 2023, 3:13 AM

#

The one abt making polys will be solved with tesselation

#

If I undestood glStencil correctly it can be done through bitmasking, but there's probably a more efficient way other than iterating over a shape's area

wheat mesa He probably did `await Promise.all(…).join(…)`

this is what i did
