Break it enough and it stops hurting much says my 40some years of running into shit daily 😂

polar fern
#

well, my feet are gigantic and I don’t have a lot of space to walk around in certain parts of the house

ripe patrol
#

I get questioned on why I wear shoes in the house. This is why 😂

polar fern
#

I might get a pair of slippers for around the house, but I would never wear outside shoes in the bedroom

graceful burrow
#

It woulda been funnier if you had kicked a gargoyle ngl

ripe patrol
#

I just have indoor runners, because even without a partner moving stuff in my way, the crunched toes are a regular thing 😂

thin patrol
#

I live in the PNW, and during the rainy season, it would be a huge problem to wear outside shoes around the house.

#

If you're lucky you're just getting everything wet with 'clean' outside water.

ripe patrol
#

I'm really good at catching the corner of the wall by the kitchen in the middle of the night barefoot. No idea how Indo it.

thin patrol
#

My whole family has indoor slippers for that sort of problem.

polar fern
#

since the beginning of the pandemic, we have used certain spaces around the house to keep things for a few days before handling them. Unfortunately this also takes up a bit of floor space here and there which can be problematic.

Vancouver - boots off at the door, slide into some DC Mando shoes currently. But all laminate and mopbot keeps floors reasonable.

polar fern
#

The bedroom on the other hand is full of stuff from her old house where her ex-husband lives and this house is a different style of structure with a lot less storage space so there’s just a bunch of boxes in the way in there

thin patrol
#

We've got family that comes up from Arizona, and they're always surprised that we take off shoes when we come in. They try to remember when they visit, but it is definitely an unexpected shift.

polar fern
#

I live in Pennsylvania, and I started taking my shoes off at the doorway, probably after high school, mainly because it kept my room less cluttered

#

Then when I moved into my own place, I just kept doing that because my bedroom is not that big and I have four pairs of shoes. One is only used for cycling is only used for walking around the neighbourhood and the other two are general use.

#

And like I said I have huge feet, so my shoes are big too 🤣

graceful burrow
#

You should buy a gargoyle to leave around the house and stub your toes on

polar fern
#

💯

thin patrol
#

Heh. You know you're in a fight when your partner starts moving the gargoyle to unexpected places while 'cleaning' the house

graceful burrow

Or when the gargoyles start multiplying

Yall I got a foolish question.. What programming language is the most "robust"

#

Fast, accurate. Yada yada

#

C++?

vivid atlas
#

I'm just a student but from what i know C++ is very powerful but it gave me a lot of headache when i used it

river valley
#

C++ is fast. Accurate? ehhh

fossil frost
#

C++ builds to binary, and there is very little between what you write and what the cpu actually runs, thus, its FAST, but it can be a pain in the arse to work with

#

the more tools a language gives you, the more a compiler has to do to turn that into something the cpu can understand, which ends up adding more binary, and slows down the binary... or.. you have entire JIT or interpreter layers between the binary and the cpu

#

if you want "robust", it depends what you mean.. C++ is very easy to make not-robust

#

its easy to end up with overflow errors and memory leaks and all sorts of other security issues

#

something like C# or Java will mitigate a lot of those for you, but, the binary does not run as quick

weary jackal
gentle slate
#

I'll master c++

fossil frost
#

because there is no such thing as mastering it

#

or any other language

river valley
#

C++ is a language for sadistic masochists, people with 3 mb of ram, competitive programmers, and basically no one else

Go > C++

building a game in unreal? C++

Like master is an overstatement. But if I make something I want it to run good.

#

Fps is sacred.

fossil frost
#

unity, you have C#... or godot, you have about 40 different languages to choose from

fossil frost
# steep stirrup Go > C++

Go is easier to write, but builds to shittier binaries and the compiler is far less optimised, and its ability to lean on CPU intrinsics is quite limited

#

urgh, its been 20 years that ive been a professional software developer now :S

steep stirrup
#

C++ syntax is made for masochists

fossil frost
#

and, go is implemented in C++, and is a C based syntax...

steep stirrup
fossil frost
#

from my 20 years of experience, C# is fast, but not as fast as C++, which is why AAA games are written in unreal engine, in C++... and rust is still too new, and not as fast as C++, yet is based on C++ without the memory leaking problems

pure olive
#

Hi bizz

steep stirrup
#

Programming in C++ takes years off your life

fossil frost
#

the real answer here is... use the best tool for the job you are trying to do... dont just stick with a single language because you are too ignorant to see the benefits of another... if C# is best for that particular job, use it... if python is best... use that... if C++ is what you need, then do C++

steep stirrup
#

I program a lot in C++, but I try to avoid it as much as possible and use alternative languages.

fossil frost
#

real software developers use what is best for the job and dont shy away from a language just because they dont understand its benefits

restive lion
#

Real software developers you say

steep stirrup
#

I know the benefits of C ++, but I also know that when I put 3-4 hours to program in C ++ I get tired

Go is to be compared to C and rust is to be compared to C++
Comparing go and C++ is like comparing C and C++

Go, like C, is aimed at keeping it simple
Just look at the number of new features from C and go per year : really not a lot
Rust and c++ : waaaay more

restive lion

Go is aimed at making people cry when they have to read 8 layers of nested if err != nil mmLul

river valley
#

Worth it

restive lion
#

Python is pretty great ngl

rough socket
#

it's either super great or super bad, no in between

steep stirrup
#

I love python, it simplifies my day to day and saves me a lot of time

#

What bothers me is that there are so many bookstores aimed at people without knowledge.

restive lion
reef summit
#

C isn't aimed at "keeping it simple". it was a language before OOP was a real thing.

The bookstores that give you everything done only take away the fun that gives you to do a project as a hobby

Guys never use Capital One MC

#

They gave me like 30$ overlimit fee for no reason

#

basically I spent a total over my credit limit one month. But I never went into overdraft

lyric sphinx
#

have you tried not going over your limit

steep girder
#

It never went over limit

#

And the payment I made was indeed posted

fossil frost

i had a capital one card for about 4 years, never once got a charge for anything

It's just that the TOTAL SPENDING that month was 100 over

I have gone over my limit on my costco card before and they just decline it till i pay the balance down

The guy on phone acted like he did me a favor and gave me a "one time waiver" on that fee. But still. i didn't deserve it

#

Yeah. But my point is mine never even approached limit this past month

lyric sphinx
#

cause there was a like 2 day overlap between my autopay and the next month

steep girder
#

Just that they stack transactions for the ENTIRE MONTH in the order they see fit

#

Typical arsewipes

fossil frost
# steep girder Wait wdym. Didn't they charge you annual fee at leat?

no, it was 0% interest for 24 months, on purchases and balance transfers, and then 0% interest for 60 days from purchase on any given transaction, so as long as I cleared it, i never got charged anything... and i used it to get the cashback then do on fuel (at the time at least), so if anything, i made money from them

steep girder
#

Dang. You must have gotten a better offer

#

I'm on a different MC now with realboi limit anyways

#

Gonna have to remember to check when that fee is and cancel before

I'm done with those guys. Gonna dent my score obv :(

I have a bit of a quandary

#

The board that I have has three case fan headers. There’s one near the rear, one in the middle and one towards the front of the board, a bit below the one in the middle..

#

Currently the middle header is occupied by the connector for the two top 140 mm fans and the front header is being occupied by the connector for the front two 140 mm fans.

#

I need to add two additional case fans for general airflow efficiency. These would be two 120 mm fans, one at the bottom of the case and one at the top rear.

#

Should I just combine the top and front fans onto the middle header and then use the front header for the bottom fan and the rear header for the rear fan?
