Replacing betteries in iphone 4s has a tendancy to fuck up wifi

Theres this little soldered down pole that attatches 3 different fucking things and its fiddily

Also breaks easy

why email is still a thing

summer rampart
#

why not?

tight fractal
#

insecure, inefficent, spam magnet

#

old tech

torn ridge
#

So's your mum and she's still around!

๐Ÿ˜„

#

dont some companies still use fax machines?

#

i know doctors have only recently given up pagers too!

tame terrace
#

@tight fractal Google agrees with you. that's why they made Google Wave, a product that is "what email would look like if invented today"

#

and they put a lot of weight behind it

tight fractal
#

but nobody can spoof my mom

sudden wharf
#

Yea, email is crap

tame terrace

Treehouse Blog

Google recently announced their most ambitious project to date called Google Wave. According to Google, Wave is โ€œwhat email would look like if it was invented today.โ€ If you havenโ€™t made time to watch the one hour video, Iโ€™d highly...

#

and then a few years later it was discontinued because nobody in the world used it.

tight fractal
#

@tame terrace oh that's hot

tame terrace
#

so that's why email is still a thing

tight fractal
#

the tricky thing about tech

tame terrace
#

because even when one of the largest and richest companies in the world try to replace it, nobody is interested.

tight fractal
#

it has to come at the right time, not before, not after, just exactly at the right time otherwise it'll just miss

torn ridge
#

googles also getting less trustworthy each year

tight fractal
#

they should lol, i am searching shit on incognito and I see ads for it on YouTube

tame terrace
#

this predates that tendency.

tight fractal
#

I wish i was just seeing porn ads, it would've been easier to explain

tame terrace
#

I would argue that Google reputation was perhaps at its highest ever when they launched wave

tight fractal
#

they could have made a big ass banner on Gmail's index and pushed Wave like crazy

rough sapphire
#

what's google wave

#

did it die

tight fractal
#

I am only finding out about it just now

#

^^

tame terrace
#

they did push it on Gmail.

torn ridge
#

i switched from google to duckduck go and from chrome to firefox, because i watched 8/10 cats foes countdown on youtube, i get SPAMMED in news about one of the people on there

#

i still use gmail however because damn it would be hard to switch now

rough sapphire
#

you could use protonmail

torn ridge
#

yeah but its switching everything over

tame terrace
#

all Gmail members were automatically invited to Wave and got lots of emails about it.

#

and yet nobody here has heard of it.

#

because it was years ago and it burned bright for a few weeks and then went out

rough sapphire
#

use rules to redirect your emails?

tight fractal
#

in my opinion, if you had to sell wave in one sentence; would you be able to?

torn ridge
#

then im still using gmail lol

#

theyre still getting my mail which then defeats the whole purpose of ditching gmail

tame terrace
#

that sentence back then was "email 2.0"

tight fractal
#

for example: facebook connects you with old coworkers and schoolmates

#

uber: get a ride, anytime, anywhere

torn ridge
#

wave allows you to wave at people?

tight fractal
#

i just heard of wave and i don't know how it works, i could be reading (uber: taxi 2.0)

torn ridge
tight fractal
#

and i wouldn't care

rough sapphire
#

like.. 1. take all contacts you ever receive email from -> add message as auto reply "I will be available on ___" till they start sending emails to your new email.. 2. Close gmail after all your contacts have started to email your new email 3. Forward all gmail messages to other email in the meantime

torn ridge
#

tron, i dont email people... or use it for communication

#

its logins, thats it

tame terrace
#

@tight fractal if you're suggesting that Google didnt do a good enough selling it that seems naive.

rough sapphire
#

naive like a fox

tight fractal
#

google has a big graveyard of apps, most of them we haven't even heard of yet

sand goblet
#

I liked Google wave

#

It was neat

#

But yeah, email is still around because people still want to use it

#

It's hard to kill an established technology

#

Especially one that even the worst of luddites can use

rough sapphire
#

there's probably a meme somewhere about all the dead ones

tight fractal
#

there's a dedicated website for it

sand goblet
#

Yep

rough sapphire
#

totally called it

tight fractal
torn ridge
#

Privacy is no1? ๐Ÿ˜„

tame terrace
#

Google have the money to try and fail. wave made a big splash and they threw a lot of money at it, and the selling point was exactly what you were complaining about: email is insecure, old fashioned, error prone, full of spam.

#

but it still failed spectacularly

sand goblet
#

I think the future of email will just be improvements to it

#

Shame DMTP never took off

tame terrace
#

so my point is - they've tried to replace email. it's just harder than you might think.

sand goblet
#

I work with people irl that use eircom's email

#

Their servers don't support encryption

#

I even wrote a blog post about it

#

But I sure as hell can't get them off it

tight fractal
#

you think blockchain would change that

sand goblet
#

Blockchain is a meme at best

#

It does one thing well and one thing only: Digital scarcity

#

Which is what it was built for

tight fractal
#

for example, email servers like klaviyo requires that you optain consent from people, if you get spam reports they shut you down for good

sand goblet
#

That wouldn't work in the real world

#

The number of times I've heard about people in offices sending IT emails to junk

tight fractal
#

maybe a blockchain powered email echosystem can establish "trust", trusted people would be able to report spammers and the whole network will block them

#

i mean i guess we can already do that with regular email but it's not good enough

sand goblet
#

Nah, that's setting up for failure, you can't really have a group of people that's above everyone else

proper dune
#

Tell that to Libra :^)

sand goblet
#

That's a big hole in crowdsourcing data

tight fractal
#

libera if it suceeds, the future is grim

sand goblet
#

This has nothing to do with your trendy Facebook hate, we're talking about email

#

:P

proper dune
#

I dont hate facebook lol

sand goblet
#

Uhhuuuuuh

proper dune
#

I use Facebook daily and it's my main method of communication ๐Ÿค”

#

It's also where the best memes are

#

Especially niche ones

tight fractal
#

if libera gets the exponential growth fb had, and the domain/field domination that fb had, the future will be really grim

swift phoenix
#

yes!

torn ridge
#

niche memes... on facebook 99% stolen from a niche subreddit

proper dune
#

bullshit

tight fractal
#

feeling nauseous just thinking about that future

proper dune
#

subreddits for niche memes are essentially non-existent

tight fractal
#

@proper dune but you must also hate it

#

how many hours do you spend on Facebook?

proper dune
#

wayyyy too many

tight fractal
#

that's what billions of people do, some of them share so they can get dopamine when their creation is reconized (or money; depends on how big they are)

#

the rest consume fresh memes daily

#

serverd to maximize dopamine in their brains

proper dune
#

I mean, shouldn't ignore that Facebook is prime location for social circles in a significant percentage of the population in many places. The main instant messaging platform, the main platform for making groups, posting events and so on.

swift phoenix
#

I got so disgusted by FB and Twitter I deleted my account. Just hanging on matrix and discord these days

tight fractal
#

and also maximize session times so they can maximize ad impressions

torn ridge
#

i still likes the twatter, its good!

tight fractal
#

twitter is nice

torn ridge
#

facebook can die in a fire

tight fractal
#

they allow boobs

torn ridge
#

you know there are other sites for that eslam ๐Ÿ˜„

proper dune
#

I talk to all my friends on Facebook, I join group chats for the subjects I do, or group pages for the university, I tag people on niche memes on facebook, I mark myself as "going" on events for the computing society, and so on

viral parrot
#

damn. google have killed many things

proper dune
#

I have no idea why everyone hates on Facebook

tight fractal
#

yeah but it's nicer when it's forbidden

torn ridge
#

because its shit nix ๐Ÿ˜„

proper dune
#

The company sucks but if your facebook sucks it's because you've made it that way

#

A social media is all about who you follow and connect with

tight fractal
#

mass herd hate is a real thing, most people hate on zuck without fully knowing who he is

#

herd love is also a real thing (||keanu reeves||)

torn ridge
#

Hey back right up there!

swift phoenix
#

FB is basically a dopamine trap for them to gather and sell info about you

tight fractal
#

I knew it ๐Ÿ˜‚

torn ridge
#

ive loved him since bill n teds ๐Ÿ˜„

tight fractal
#

since the matrix

proper dune
#

seriously though, Facebook is an absolute fucking goldmine with a LOT of very creative specific meme pages

tight fractal
#

bless neo

torn ridge
#

i had the video on tape for bill and teds, and the soundtrack

#

me n my buddy skipped school to go buy it ๐Ÿ˜„

tight fractal
#

facebook is only good for one thing, if you leave the timeline and hop on the other side of the room

#

you become the advertiser and you hook people in instead of being hooked

proper dune

i have no idea where i'd get my dose of control theory memes if it weren't for facebook

I use it for keeping up with people and following cosplayers

And my family uses it for keeping up with groups related to my sister's disability

tight fractal
#

if discord gets a group section with posts and comments

#

bye fb for me

torn ridge
#

urgh god no

tight fractal
#

a topic section within the server; it'd be lit

#

fb pages are getting practically zero reach because so many pages are trying to compete for people's timelines

proper dune

Breaking news: Discord now has stories

tight fractal
#

ok now that is an urgh god no

narrow comet
#

nobody has even said "Reddit" yet?

torn ridge
#

thats because reddit is awesome ๐Ÿ˜„

sand goblet
#

What does reddit have to offer for the normal person? Not much.

narrow comet
#

implying I'm not normal

#

also, new pfp

#

it's bad

tight fractal
sand goblet
#

It's the same one

#

Without the border

#

Yeah I know that sub

narrow comet
#

oh yeah reddit does free pizza

sand goblet
#

The point I'm making is that reddit has its own culture and norms

#

And you need to learn those to do well

narrow comet
#

just lurk like a normal Redditor

sand goblet
#

Facebook is full of "normal people" that have their own norms, but those norms are mostly local so it all works

narrow comet
#

:O

#

a bot that figures out what percentage of the users are lurking

#

hmm

#

that wouldn't work

tight fractal
#

reddit is basically a bunch of facebook g/r/oups?

sand goblet
#

It's not, though

tight fractal
#

but you can dislike

#

downvote*

sand goblet
#

You have reddit gifts, you have cake days, and there's a lot of cross-sub behaviour

narrow comet
#

just don't say anything on Reddit about knives or potatoes and you'll be fine

sand goblet
#

I mean, lostredditors for example

#

Almost every thread has a link to another subreddit

tight fractal
#

the gamification of reddit and imgur are strong

narrow comet
#

crossposting

#

Reddit's crowning jewel

#

or whatever

tight fractal
#

facebook started to gamifiy groups/pages as well with "top fan", "visual storyteller" badges etc

narrow comet
#

if you're not hitting 1 karma a second or more you've failed

sand goblet
#

Because reddit works in this way, with people linking between subreddits all the time, you can expect a certain set of norms and behaviours in each

narrow comet
#

you gotta build farms

sand goblet
#

That doesn't happen on Facebook

tight fractal
#

i find reddit's timeline to be nearly as addictive as facebook

sand goblet
#

Reddit has a habit of pushing out the crazies

tight fractal
#

reddit to be slighly higher iq

narrow comet
#

reddit's timeline?

tight fractal
#

reddit's frontpage/personal page

narrow comet
#

you mean just uhh

#

hot?

#

or was it best

#

for some reason there's best and hot

tight fractal
#

reddit's multiverse timelines

narrow comet
#

idk the difference

tight fractal
#

hot is moving fast

sand goblet
#

Hot is what most people mean by that

narrow comet
#

the default is best

#

I think best is personalised, maybe

tight fractal
#

there are actually things that'll confuse you

narrow comet
#

oh best probably prioritizes a little bit more time on it

tight fractal
#

top, best, hot

#

which seem to mean the same thing

narrow comet
#

top is just hard by-upvotes

tight fractal
#

but top only cares about numbers

#

yeah

narrow comet
#

hot and best are some formula of age and upvotes

tight fractal
#

exactly

torn ridge

reddit karma is where its at

narrow comet
#

okay but mallory did that one

#

have you seen the comments for that ad?

#

everyone's on about how great an ad it is

#

I wonder if it's just because it stars a Studio C member

tight fractal
#

youtube video ads are loud and annoying, audio level is off, the user experince is shit

#

people are forced to use it because it's either that or facebook watch

narrow comet
#

okay but the raw egg test is all about how if your mattress is too soft it's no good and if it's too hard it's no good and if it's just right it's no good

sand goblet
#

The audio is actually not the fault of the advertisers

narrow comet
#

and you need to buy purple mattress

sand goblet
#

Most of the time, amateur videos have the volume too low

#

Heck a lot of pro videos do

tight fractal
#

i make ads all the time and i make sure all of my ads start gentle so it doesn't shock or upset the viewer prompting them to skip early

sand goblet
#

Bon Appetit is infamous for it

narrow comet
#

I always have my volume on max and it's only just good enough

sand goblet
#

But a lot of ads are made by pros that are using the same standards they use for TV

tight fractal
#

yeah the unskippable ads from big corps are nice, i actually seek these out

I use an adblocker

so i loaded up a "professional stream" think it was riots stream for a league of legends match

the audio was on the same level as mine

#

i proved my point

tight fractal
#

i think the word loud is relative

torn ridge
#

its like this is what it "should" sound like when they have sound engineers etc

tight fractal
#

they need to come up with pepEar or something with sound db convention*

torn ridge
#

Ohhhhh

#

idea for a website

#

it checks your sound levels for you

#

buy capturing clips from a twitch stream

so it does a background music check, and then a mic check

twilit marlin
#

heyere

plucky ridge
#

So odds are good that you won't frag your computer unless you intentionally do it

grave phoenix
#

I would recommend learning C++ because you will learn C in the meantime

plucky ridge
#

Worst you'll have is a program crash

twilit marlin
#

oh, good

grave phoenix
#

You can't possibly damage your PC with C++

plucky ridge
#

Where as I'd argue going with C first so that the building blocks are more clear

#

But it really depends on your goal

twilit marlin
#

mostly, my goal is to learn the basics and maybe get onto cybersec in the future

#

where c could be really useful

plucky ridge
#

If you're doing this for the sake of learning and understanding programming a lot more, then C. If you're working towards and end goal of making something sooner rather than later, C++ or any of the higher level languages would be a better choice

#

So C would be a strong choice in your case, then

twilit marlin
#

huh, nice
thanks for helping then

plucky ridge
#

Something to note, C hasn't changed a lot over the years

#

So most literature out there will still be relevant

grave phoenix
#

Since C99

plucky ridge
#

There's some really good books out there

grave phoenix
#

I think?

twilit marlin
#

i mean, C is the second most used language in the world :p

plucky ridge
#

That sounds right

grave phoenix
#

Or it was C11 the last standard?

twilit marlin
#

so i guess it'll stay revelant on all the times

plucky ridge
#

C11 might be the latest but C99 is the most comprehensive

twilit marlin
#

since people gotta code things that have stuff to do with lower level

plucky ridge
#

So you're still probably solid no matter the book, especially for learning purposes

#

Absolutely

#

And it's much cleaner than dealing with straight assembly

wet steppe
#

C18 is the current one

plucky ridge
#

Oh huh

#

Shows how much I pay attention

grave phoenix
#

What

wet steppe
plucky ridge
#

Still, any book should be fine for beginner stuff

#

Only worry about getting the most up to date stuff if you know you'll need it

twilit marlin
#

well, it's not like i'm gonna code drivers or anything

plucky ridge
#

Otherwise, this is a great learning exercise in learning how most code out there ticks on the most bare levels

wet steppe
#

C11 has quite a lot of extra stuff above C99

twilit marlin
#

i'm just quite interested and programming area is fun for me

#

and knowing the basics of it will be really much of an advantage i guess

plucky ridge
#

I wonder...

#

2 seconds, let me see if I can find the book I got

wet steppe
#

an important thing to note is that
C99 is POSIX-compliant and C11 isn't

#

so POSIX-compliant stuff will be at most C99

wet steppe
#

having said that there is load of support for C11 these days in general

plucky ridge
#

But I THINK this is the one I got?

#

I was enjoying it while I was doing it, but I got distracted from it, too much going on in my life at that time

twilit marlin
#

thank you a lot!

wet steppe
#

in time it goes
K&R C -> ANSI C -> C89 -> C99 -> C11 -> C18

#

further back you go the more systems will support it

plucky ridge
#

ANSI C is typically the farthest back people would want to go, though

#

And even that's a stretch

wet steppe
#

there's a lot of old systems out there

i mean, it's free and interactive

plucky ridge
#

I honestly don't know. Looks fine. Python is more my jam. Other than the book I got, I don't have much experience with C

#

I'm just a hobbyist

twilit marlin
#

i'm a hobbyist too, but man, i'd really love to get into cybersec since it sounds so much fun
and ctfs that i've seen so far were a lot of fun to solve

wet steppe
#

some digital signal processing stuff is still in ANSI C

twilit marlin
#

like overthewire

plucky ridge
#

I don't doubt it, but I'm more speaking in general terms

wet steppe
#

what's rly suprising is that
apparently Visual Studio still isn't 100% C99-compliant

#

some redditors say to use C89 in windows cos of this ๐Ÿ˜„

plucky ridge
#

Huh

#

Makes me wonder if CLion is up to date with compliance

wet steppe
#

not sure

twilit marlin
#

though, even with C's popularity, seems like C++ is more used for general modern stuff

#

like browsers, games, etc

wet steppe
#

anyway GNU Coreutils are all C89 also
the long and short of it is that its worth knowing like 5 C versions lol

plucky ridge
#

Right tool for the right job

#

For those applications you can usually fudge some of it, so C++ is fine

twilit marlin
#

and most of the cool things using exploits is written with ++ but not C

plucky ridge
#

But for things that need absolute precision, C is what is needed

twilit marlin
#

but i probably should get onto C first before C++, i'm sure somehow that C++ will be much easier after C

plucky ridge
#

Not easier, just different

#

But having C under your belt will make your understanding of C++ that much easier

wet steppe
#

really depends on what you are doing
I do Qt stuff in C++
and knowing C really wouldn't help you for that

#

but Qt C++ is kinda different to normal C++ anyway

plucky ridge
#

But for general computer knowledge stuff

twilit marlin
#

... i'm kinda confused what should i do, so i guess i'll just flip the random.org
1 = cpp and 2 = c

plucky ridge
#

I mean I guess I'm the wrong person to talk about all of this, the first language I learned was like... an old version of VB

#

Followed by a more thorough learning of Java

twilit marlin
wet steppe
#

VB.NET is as capable as C# for .NET stuff

#

so it has its place

plucky ridge
#

Right but this was.... not the useful VB

wet steppe
#

microsoft were careful to not make is a second-class citizen for .NET

twilit marlin
#

my first programming language probably was some kind of code simulator where you solved puzzles by coding the solution on very simplified language

plucky ridge
#

Oh well if we really want to get down to brass tacks my first language was TI-Basic on my scientific calculator

wet steppe
#

thing about C++ as well is that
if you look at the sources of big C++ projects
they almost always have some C in the codebase

winged willow
#

A

twilit marlin
#

B

wet steppe
#

C

twilit marlin
#

++

wet steppe
#

I'm not entirely sure why
but there's usually at least a bit of C mixed in with the C++

winged willow
#

abc(d) = e

plucky ridge
#

Typically for the more fiddly bits

twilit marlin
#

@wet steppe i guess that's for where it needs more system and low level management?

winged willow
#

for i in alphabet:
Print(i)

twilit marlin
#

print

#

not Print

wet steppe
#

not sure

winged willow
#

Sorry

#

Sorry

twilit marlin
#

compilator gives 0/10 to this code

#

ok, now that's good

plucky ridge
#

Also entirely possible that they're using the C for C libraries that already exist that don't in C++

wet steppe
#

WTF apparently even GCC and Clang don't have full C99 support ๐Ÿ˜„

#
C99

C99 (previously known as C9X) is an informal name for ISO/IEC 9899:1999, a past version of the C programming language standard. It extends the previous version (C90) with new features for the language and the standard library, and helps implementations make better use of avai...

#

they only got full support for C89 lmao

twilit marlin
#

C89 is probably the most portable one

winged willow
#

Hey

#

How which is best library for GUI

#

In python

#

??

wet steppe
#

its actually bizarre how bad support for C99+ is

plucky ridge
#

Matter of preference, really

wet steppe
#

Pyside2

plucky ridge
#

Yeah, that's what I typically suggest

twilit marlin
#

pyside2, glooey

wet steppe
winged willow
#

Pyside2 for GUI

twilit marlin
#

qt for python is not entirely nice

wet steppe
#

Qt_for_Python is Pyside 2

wet steppe

oh well you can literally use CSS if you want

twilit marlin
#

no offense just i love laughing out grammatical mistakes

grave phoenix
#

probably you want something like electron, but in python?

winged willow
#

How

wet steppe
winged willow
#

?

#

Thanx

wet steppe
#

there are other guides

grave phoenix
#

I didn't know electron supported python

wet steppe
#

if you search on either "python electron" or "python webview"

#

its python, most stuff is supported ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

twilit marlin
#

honestly i love python

wet steppe
#

ecosystem size and level of support is bascially only reason I like python LOL

twilit marlin
#

just if it has more low level capabilities and interaction with win api

#

:((((

wet steppe
#

yeah ur describing C#

#

my preferred language ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

twilit marlin
#

but that's not python

stark prawn
#

C# is too platform dependant.

wet steppe
#

well there used to be Ironpython that ran on .NET

twilit marlin
#

c# is java

#

not python

wet steppe
#

c# is java
๐Ÿ‘€

stark prawn
#

that's an insult to java.

twilit marlin
#

but i mean

#

just compare them

#

both are forced oop, just c# got some stuff like delegates

#

but syntax is really similiar

grave phoenix
#

That's an insult for c# and java @stark prawn

#

I hate both so finger_gun

wet steppe
#

C# and Java syntax is super different

grave phoenix
#

Conceptually it's really similar

vestal briar
#

They are pretty similar c# and java

#

He said syntax not the languages themselves >:D

#

Seeing c# was basically a syntaxical clone of java originally

grave phoenix

Yeah

wet steppe

Super similar yet you can immediatly tell them apart.

@twilit marlinbad

bad]

twilit marlin
#

c# has a bit more lines

grave phoenix
#

Ew, using

twilit marlin
#

but the idea is almost identical

wet steppe
#

big thinking

stark prawn
#

Can you do this in c#?

for( Tree tree: trees){```
vestal briar
#

Java and C# where 95% same but have done their ways a little

grave phoenix
#

Can you put a function in a namespace?

vestal briar
#

I think that is foreach(Tree trees) {

stark prawn
#

The class itself is the namespace.

vestal briar
#

Yep

#

Everything is an object

grave phoenix
#

No, a class is a type a namespace is a namespace

vestal briar
#

Shh

#

Namespaces are fancy words for scopes

#

[how to start a flame war 101]

twilit marlin
#

what did we talk about even

grave phoenix
#

Does the static keyword have a lot of unrelated meanings?

twilit marlin
#

rip

vestal briar
#

Dude I can't stand this much programming in 1 day

#

Head is swirling

stark prawn
#

A static method is one that you can call on the class instead of an instance.

vestal briar
#

I made a for loop adding to a tally instead of timising the values

wet steppe
#

hmm

twilit marlin
#

@vestal briar you seem to be an experienced person!

#

++ or C should I learn?

#

random said C

vestal briar
#

Depends

#

C is faster to learn

#

C++ is used more in open source and modern

twilit marlin
#

yeah but i wanna get into cybersec because it's fun

wet steppe
#

both

vestal briar
#

C can do programming languages better

#

C can do linux kernel

twilit marlin
#

and i probably need c++ or c there

vestal briar
#

C++ can do graphical

stark prawn
#

C can do graphical.

vestal briar
#

Cybersec uses both

#

Yep

stark prawn
#

I mean it has curses.

vestal briar
#

But not oop

twilit marlin
#

i should learn both? ๐Ÿค”

vestal briar
#

So it is pretty ugly

#

Learn C++

#

Then do C

wet steppe
#

C first

vestal briar
#

That's the generally preffered way

grave phoenix
#
static struct MyStruct {
    static void fun() {
        static int tmp;
    }
} obj;
twilit marlin
#

I'M CONFUSED

#

@grave phoenix void fun

vestal briar
#

2 ways to approch

twilit marlin
#

v o i d

wet steppe
#

you could get okay at C89 in like a week
then move on

vestal briar
#

C then C++ is a smaller learning curve but can give bad practises
C++ then C is harder but better pracises

wet steppe
#

modern C++ is gonna take like
10 times longer to learn than C89
so doing C89 first kind makes sense to me

grave phoenix
#

That's basically static used in three different ways

vestal briar
#

I got C basics confident in 2 weeks

#

I can do C if I am forced to

twilit marlin
#

i mean c probably can do windows api so

vestal briar
#

Not any good but I can

wet steppe
#

you could do a mixture like
do a month of C++
then do C89
then go back to C++

#

like a C-sandwich ๐Ÿ˜„

Never walk shit.

vestal briar
#

I don't like K&R

#

Who uses C anyways? Long live assembly

vestal briar
#

Python is C

wet steppe
#

C is pretty close to ASM

twilit marlin
#

what's k&r

stark prawn
#

Long live x86 assembly.

vestal briar
#

The original implementation of c

wet steppe
#

K&R is two people

vestal briar
#

Also a book

#

Also 2 people

wet steppe
#

but named after them is a book
and an implementation of C

vestal briar

If you say K&R C it is the C implamentation

This is not the way to install graphics drivers

Use your package manager

Google the documentation for your distro

Manually installing kernel modules is likely to break your system

im in windows rn

#

how can I fix my linux system? I installed Ext2Fsd to mount the linux system @sand goblet

sand goblet

if you broke your kernel, you won't be fixing anything from windows

you need to either reinstall, or boot into a live linux usb or something and chroot in, remove the driver

okay well I have a bootable usb

where will the driver be located?

Oh, right

Nah, what's wrong with that :P

rough sapphire
#

quick question

sand goblet
#

Quick answer

rough sapphire
#

you guys know in time series predictions.. we predict a stock price for a certain date or something

#

what is the concept called, when you're trying to predict a date

#

(i'm trying to plot a project timeline, and lag time between expected date and actual date) need to look up some example plots.. it would help if I knew what it was called

vestal briar
#

Tron

#

It's basically what we are doing with our code jam

#

Apart from predictiks cureently

#

Nwvermind the whole thing I read it wrong

rough sapphire
#

could you tell me more..

#

I'm not predicting anything..

vestal briar
#

Oh

rough sapphire
#

I have two datetime columns.. each row corresponds to a task in a project

vestal briar
#

We are using machine learbing to interpolate plots from a dataset and make an efficient mathematical function out of it

#

We have datetime and a float

rough sapphire
#

interpolate plots?

#

what dataset is it

vestal briar
#

Sort of but with machine learning

#

Global median water level

rough sapphire
#

what are the columns

vestal briar
#

Id primary key just so no conflucts

#

Datetime that could be used as primary key easily

#

And a float that slowly goes up positively because sea level rise

#

We where using interpolation but our maths dude thought it'd be better with machine learning

rough sapphire
#

ok, so sea level is correlated with something.. and also has a datetime column.. you're trying to make a function that correlates datetime and sea level

#

is that right?

vestal briar
#

Yep

#

Then it gives the different of the float by calculating the floats

#

Then a rest api surrounding it with a whole ecosystem

gentle moss
#

you mean options @rough sapphire ?

#

stock options?

vestal briar
rough sapphire
#

cool cool

#

@gentle moss no.. i'm not trying to predict stock prices or anything..

#

the thing is, people usually plot that in time series plots - they predict a variable based on past events/trends

#

but I'm trying to visualize lag times between when a project's task was predicted to complete, versus when it actually completed

gentle moss
#

like a delta?

#

time delta?

rough sapphire
#

let me check

rough sapphire
#

that works for me.. but I guess I have to make my own custom plot

#

gonna use d3js in python

gentle moss
#

nice, i got something right \o/

I think I am choosing between pygame and language

rough sapphire
#

@narrow comet that's lisp.. welcome to hell

#

although there's no dot notation or @ that im aware of

narrow comet
#

yeah that's the crap part

rough sapphire
#

input "" describes a string input .. but the input itself is not a keyword.. the "" part signifies the string input

narrow comet
#

eh?

rough sapphire
#

yep

narrow comet
#

are you talking about lisp

rough sapphire
#

yeah

narrow comet
#

wouldn't (input "") just call the function input

#

with ""

rough sapphire
#

something like that

narrow comet
#

do you know Lisp

rough sapphire
#

a little bit

#

we use it for our files

vestal briar
#

@narrow comet What where the @. for? stdlib?

narrow comet
#

@vestal briar @ is the root folder

#

so it's like /

#

. gets things from a dict

#

folders are just dicts

vestal briar
#

Ew

narrow comet
#

@vestal briar it's simpler tho

vestal briar
#

Ew

narrow comet
#

nah m8

#

iz good

#

if you use string replacement to make it look better

#

#print (#add (#int (#input "")) (#int (#input "")))

#

ahh

#

much better

Hey all.
Does anyone here know C++? I'm having an issue with something. Its a homework problem I'm pretty much almost done with. ๐Ÿ˜…
Here's what I got:

grave phoenix
#

@median scaffold I can give you a C++ Help server

median scaffold
#

Sure!

#

That would be very helpful. Thanks. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Complete hunch change โ€˜fruitโ€™ to like โ€˜yeetโ€™

#

That was like 6 hours ago

#

Hmm

rough sapphire
#

wonder how long before they kill it

#

sand goblet
#

that whole NPM thing is a fucking joke

#

a complete fucking joke

#

firing people over them using their right to unionize?

#

trying to set up a foundation and refusing to let it operate independently?

#

what a dumpster fire

vestal briar
#

It's npm

#

The entire thing is a joke

#

Not just the in-company drama

#

It's nice when microsoft realizes that porting server stuff onto linux is a viable option

sand goblet
#

hey @tired osprey, guess what caused the cloudflare outage yesterday

#

it was a bad regex

tired osprey
#

what was it

#

hahaha

sand goblet
#

ring a bell?

tired osprey
#

thats amazing

wet steppe
#

OMG I thought it was my internet

sand goblet
#

:P

tired osprey
#

yeah

sand goblet
#

Yeah, it was in their WAF offering

tired osprey
#

but I didnt deploy my stuff to cloudflare ๐Ÿ˜›

wet steppe
#

I kept getting "502 Gateway error Cloudflare"

sand goblet
#

bad regex caused 100% CPU usage

wet steppe
#

thanks Nix for the regex ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

tired osprey
#

no no

sand goblet
#

I wonder if it was catastrophic backtracking

#

:P

tired osprey
#

what g is referring to is a regex i put into @royal lake once

#

which might or might not have done the same

#

maybe

sand goblet
#

it did, yeah

#

that one took ages to figure out

wet steppe
#

ooh

sand goblet
#

we all learned something new though

#

:P

tired osprey
#

no wonder it was like 2 or 3 hours

sand goblet
#

we'd noticed the problem some time before

#

but it wasn't consistent enough to focus on

tired osprey
#

502s in several regions over 3 hours

#

doesnt really sound consistent if you ask me

wet steppe
#

I should really learn the HTTP status codes

sand goblet
#

it was consistent

#

it starved their entire network of CPU

#

everything

tired osprey
#

but a few regions survived according to cloudflare status

sand goblet
#

Yeah, it hadn't rolled out that far yet

#

It took them about 30 mins to fix it

tired osprey
#

but the issues started at like 1:30 pm and were fixed around 3 pm

plucky ridge
#

Could have been a situation where they staunched the bleeding in half an hour and did a more serious fix after that

tulip palm
#

100% cpu usage? must have been toasty as fuck

tired osprey
#

thats actually a fun way to ruin a company

#

just change one of their ancient regexes so this happens and bam

sand goblet
#

yeah, just get nix to write a regex

#

I wonder if there are many regex DoS exploits out there

tired osprey
#

hey many of my regexes were fine and it took you some time to figure it out too!

plucky ridge
#

Regnix?

#

Nah that doesn't work as well as I thought

tired osprey
#

and you at least knew there was something wrong

sand goblet
#

Regix

plucky ridge
#

Yeah there we go

sand goblet
#

Yeah but on the other hand

wet steppe
#

Regex Golf is a fun game

sand goblet
#

we don't have a global networking backbone to fuck up

#

not yet, anyway

plucky ridge
#

Well, unless you count the underwater cables

tired osprey
#

*starts to develop an automatic regex fuckup

sand goblet
#

Haha

wet steppe
#

thinking of running underwater cables in my minecraft world

plucky ridge
#

That sounds tedious as balls

wet steppe
#

my friend got more power generation than me I want to steal it

plucky ridge
#

Especially with all the repeaters you'll have to toss in

wet steppe
#

ah this is big modded pack

plucky ridge
#

Ohhh okay

tired osprey
#

redstone is worse than fiber change my mind

plucky ridge
#

So not like lines and lines of redstone

#

I mean

#

Yes

#

You're not wrong Nix
