rigid jewel
solemn spade
Have one of those too
It’s got a LOT of software issues
Also wanted to make something thin that’s why I was thinking like 4 pi zeros
rigid jewel
yea unfortunately a lot of your problems just may be software issues
yea the problem is the interface is terrible for pi zero
to cluster them
the bandwidth is garbage
it would make performance way worse, not better
everything goes through the USB
solemn spade
Was thinking of making a custom interface board using the USB go to make a bunch of USB Ethernet adapters
rigid jewel
which makes it just terrible for cluster
solemn spade
All in board interconnected
rigid jewel
its still slooooow
for GPU level stuff
the latency would be so bad
only other thing i could suggest is go to a Latte Panda
but its not cheap
solemn spade
Well I was thinking that may be a problem but what if I used an composite panel and had one pi do one color so like one for red one for blue one fore green
solemn spade
Ya but it’s like $800
rigid jewel
noo
solemn spade
Would like one
rigid jewel
its way cheaper than that
solemn spade
Um
The GPU on that is only 200mhz faster than the pi
The tinkerboard has a fast GPU
rigid jewel
yea but its an Intel GPU it will be way more optimized
solemn spade
The tinkerboard has a (if I remember right) 700mhz GPU
solemn spade
Ya but for retro you don’t really need the 64bit until you hit like GameCube
rigid jewel
there is another board i am trying to remember what it is
solemn spade
Unless the Nintendo ds needs 64bit.....
Don’t know actually
Do note though the reason I was thinking cluster pi zeros it to make it tiny had held,
Like fit in pocket
rigid jewel
the Udoo Ultra
probablly hard to find though
yea I get what you are saying about cluster, i just dont think there is enough latency, especially considering your talking about 4 of them
and I am not even sure you could leverage the GPUs in such a way with cluster
CPUs yes, but the GPU interconnect would be way to slow to improve performance
and even with CPUs you would need special software that can leverage the load balance
you cant just throw off the shelf software at a cluster and it works
solemn spade
Well that’s what I was asking was if it was possible to cluster the GPU
rigid jewel
I doubt there is any easy way it could be done, and i suspect it would not yeild better results, thats about the best I can say
solemn spade
Would love a cheeper latte panda alpha without all the extra stuff.... like just the processor, GPIO and like a USB WI-FI and hdmi
rigid jewel
yea what is the cheapest model is like 300$ USD or something?
rigid jewel
379$ ya thats high but its great hardware too
if i recall its comparable to what recent macbooks have
solemn spade
Witch is quite sad actually
Though the problem with the latte panda alpha is it need like a 70w power supply....
Not very good for a mobile console

Hey All,
So I'm looking for preferably a professional opinion, but if you have some information to add it would be appreciated,
It's based around system security. I'm not that well versed in this feild so I may get things wrong.
Goal:
To have a completely encrypted system, where system admins can't access a users data until they are given permission (I don't want this to be a trust system).
My current thoughts are:
The user has a username and password, this is used to encrypt their files, only a salted hash is stored in the system.
They would also be given a key, which when given to admins would allow them to access the account .
How:
When the user creates an account their password is sent over https/ssl this is userd to create their salted hash, it is also asymetrically encrypted, the system owns the public key and retains the cipher, and the private key is sent to the user (email/text/mail) never stored in the system, this means when the user sends the admins their private key they will be able to discover their password, and in turn decrypt their data.
When the user changes their password they will recieve a new key, and if they wish to remove admin access they also need to change their password.
I expect admin access to be very infrequent normally only once.
This system would also be public knowledge so users know their data is safe.
Are their any issues with this idea, what concerns would a user have and is it the best way to achieve this 'secured backdoor' ?
or could you point me in a more appropriate direction ?
nocturne galleon
@last ingot Thanks for the response,
I understand email isn’t secure, and there is a risk there, however I believe it would be minimal, partially because it doesn’t directly mean anything, if someone had malicious access to the database, they would have to know the stages of encryption in the right order(which is entirely possible), if it was an external ‘attack’ they wouldn’t have access to the data as the system holds the cipher, therefore they wouldn’t get the users password to decrypt the data, only admin/staff would. this could also be mitigated by the ciphers being kept on an offline device making the process manual, however it would be infrequent so it’s a viable option even at scale.
The user needs to have this key stored as a physical object, also the service I’m looking to provide would mean the users would be happy for admin/company staff to access the data if their key has been supplied, before supplying the key, as a selling point of the service, I would like as much data to be encrypted as possible. There would be some private/sensitive data, but the end user would understand that given certain circumstances (controlled by them) admin/staff have access to the data.
I hope that makes sense, it’s pretty early and I’m a bit asleep

Just had implemented my own TCP protocol
That's why I hated it when I was finished
Because it isn't really fun to figure our what byte belongs to what packet
But I ended up with something like: AA AA BB BB CC .... DD DD where:
- AA: The length (two bytes forming a 16 bit int)
- BB: The packet ID
- CC: The payload (can vary in length, there can also be no payload)
- DD: End bytes, used for checking length (Can't use this to split packets because the payload might also contain the same values as the end bytes)

After it sets strmsg once you want to bail out of the loop. It is two nested loops though so you may want to switch it to a function and return then echo

if message.author == client.user:

await client.send_message(message.channel, msg)
elif message.content.startswith('die bottom text'):
msg = 'why do you treat me like this'
await client.send_message(message.channel, msg)
client.logout()
print(client.is_logged_in)
Not too familiar with discord.py, but I'd do something close to this:
@client.event
def on_message(message):
# we do not want the bot to reply to itself
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('!hello'):
msg = 'Hello {}'.format(0.author.mention)

You can move the main function up and forward declare the functions below it.
but like why
worthy dirge
I found the biggest limitation to mimic OOP in C is actually you can never call an object to do something
You can only write a function and pass the object to it
fundamental difference
worthy dirge
Yeah, in C, you can only do like i=get(&f) or i=get(f)
deep scarab
f.get() is just syntactic sugar for that
you can see in the assembly that it passes f as a pointer
worthy dirge
I know, it's actually the compiler helps to pass the address of f, so basically it is compiled down to procedural oriented

hi guys, need some help with my C program
I want to round my array elements because they need to be ints, not floats
so far I have this:
....shit cant post screenshot because its a virtual machine....
oh and also convert them to q1.14 format which is done by bit-shifting 14 times
this is what I have now
my thought was that I would iterate through the array, first converting to q1.14 format by bit-shifting and then rounding the numbers
vestal glen
(what you should have is discord open in your browser and paste that code over in a code block with tripple ` )
supple abyss
#include <math.h>
int main () { //bit-shift the ints
float array_decimal[16] = {0.785398, 0.463648, 0.244979, 0.124355,0.062419, 0.031240, 0.014624, 0.007812, 0.003906, 0.001953, 0.000977, 0.000488, 0.000244, 0.000122, 0.000061, 0.000031};
int i;
for (i=0; i<16; i++) {
i = i<<14;
printf ("New values are:\t %f\n", array_decimal[i]);
}
return 0;
}```backticks, not appostrophes
but thanks 😃
so right now you're bit shifting the index and not the actual value?
supple abyss
ohhhhhhh
shit yeah you're right
got confused because we usually use i for the array index
but I still have no idea how I can bit-shift the values?
vestal glen
you get the value and then you bit shift it?
vestal glen
I mean, you are bit shifting, just that you are bit shifting the index. You are also retrieving the value later on in your code, so you seem to have the ingredients?
(I've never had the pleasure of hearing about q1.14 or at least haven't remembered it, but if you want to bit shift, you bit shift...)
supple abyss
array_decimal = array_decimal << 14; doesnt work haha
vestal glen
is that how you read the value at a specific index?
because you got that down in your print call as mentioned...
supple abyss
array_decimal[i] = array_decimal[i] << 14;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^~```ahhh so apparently you cant bitshift a float
technically you can but you need typecast and other difficult stuff
proper gale
@supple abyss there is a round function... then just cast to int. https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/math/round
glad pagoda
Are there any experienced and actuallt good people at C#
Pls hit me up

deep scarab
@supple abyss
int n = *(int*)(&array_decimal[i]);
n <<= 14;
array_decimal[i] = *(float*)&n;
this is sketchy tho
not sure why you would want to bit shift floats
supple abyss
@deep scarab yeah you're right. I first converted them to q1.14 and then did the shifting
But thanks!

Does anyone else know how to perform precise floating point addition?
For example, the following code:
print(.1 + .2)
Produces the following output:
> 0.30000000000000004
worthy dirge
@supple abyss Why not simply *100000
And you output the value as int
And why do you include<math.h>
visual tapir
@mortal owl afaik you can't really compare floats for equality
if (float_1 == float_2) //this will not work
mortal owl
Hmm, that may be true. I'm using Python 3. Should've mentioned that.
visual tapir
I don't thinkn it would work in python either
it's got to do with the way the floats are rounded and stored in memory
You could also do something like this:
(Taken from stackoverflow):
def isclose(a, b, rel_tol=1e-09, abs_tol=0.0):
return abs(a-b) <= max(rel_tol * max(abs(a), abs(b)), abs_tol)
btw this is a standard libary function for python 3.5
Also, i have a question: In C++, how to best check if a string is only decimal numbers and then convert it into an integer?
worthy dirge
You first check the ASCII for each character. And then you get each digit, *10for the previous digit following each new digit.
deep scarab
stringstream
std::stringstream ss("123")
int n;
if (!(ss >> n))
{
// ss doesn't contain a valid integer
}
@mortal owl https://docs.python.org/2/library/decimal.html
you tell it what precision you want, and it makes it happen
mortal owl
Ah, thanks, this is what I'm looking for. I'll read up on it tommorrow, thanks.

@glad pagoda Java count?
glad pagoda
I mean java script is almost the same as C#
supple abyss
@worthy dirge because we are doing CPU simulations and the cpu doesn't know how to multiply, hence why we are doing bit shifting and using only ints
proper gale
nononono, not JS, Java.
supple abyss
@worthy dirge included math.h because I used atan previously to calculate an array
proper gale
Java is to Javascript as Car is to carpet.
@glad pagoda
anyway, i have experience with Java, so i may be able to help ya.
worthy dirge
You are doing CPU simulations and not allowed to use float, then why can you use atan LOL
proper gale
if you are simulating/emulating a CPU, you should be able to use anything the platform you are on has available.
IE, an add op should be translated to an add op.
not a pile of bitshift BS that mimics that add op.
supple abyss
@worthy dirge no-no I just used it to calculate the array which I then converted to ints and used the indices for calcution. Don't really need math.h now anymore
@proper gale we aren't simulating a modern cpu, we are doing it with x-toy
A very basic 16 bit cpu with 255 memory slots
And it has 16 instructions, which don't include multiplication
worthy dirge
ok
proper gale
ok, i still dont see why you cant use whatever you want host side so long as the result is correct
supple abyss
I can but then we translate the c code to assembler
proper gale
the so long as the result is correct way of solving problems is what makes everything work as it does now.
no compiler allowed?
supple abyss
We are the compiler
proper gale
fun fun, just check the link in assembler from a gcc output
this is what it looks like in cmath ``` constexpr float
round(float __x)
{ return __builtin_roundf(__x); }
figure out what its pointing to, and call it.
boom, round function
worthy dirge
I came up with an idea to mimic oop in C. Like I need to do a.print instead of print(&a) , all I need is a pointer to itself. I can build a global vtable which stores the variable name and the it's memory address. All the functions first call the vtable to get the pointer
So dumb

i'll have a second chance the next time
mortal owl
Lol, i thought inmight try since no one else helped that i can see
glad pagoda
the assignment was
output the words in the sentence when they are spelled the same way when you reverse it
so for example
input bob is a nice guy
output bob
because if you reverse bob = bob
get it?
mortal owl
Hmm, yeah i see
glad pagoda
but i got lost in class
i had 2 for loops
1 to read the actual sentence and save it up in the string
and 1 does the same thing but it starts reading the sentence from the right
mortal owl
I'm not sure. You could sperate each word as part of an array then compare them to the original (also make it an array.)
glad pagoda
ye im not experienced at all
mortal owl
@glad pagoda Honesty, me neither. I'm still learning so this is student to student.

They may not want you to go ahead. If you haven't learned arrays yet

@glad pagoda you would want to split into the words, and then for each word iterate forward and backward at the same time (its much simpler than it sounds) comparing them.

fervent thicket
I am trying to get Chartjs to work and I added the code they provided as test to make it work but i get an error on my console : Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getContext' of null at index.html:10
And the <script> tag I put is:
<script>
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
// The type of chart we want to create
type: 'line',
// The data for our dataset
data: {
labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July'],
datasets: [{
label: 'My First dataset',
backgroundColor: 'rgb(255, 99, 132)',
borderColor: 'rgb(255, 99, 132)',
data: [0, 10, 5, 2, 20, 30, 45]
}]
},
// Configuration options go here
options: {}
});
</script>```
line 10 being `var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');,` so im not what im doing wrong and im referencing their library from this link: `<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js@2.8.0"></script>`First split individual words, copy each of them into an array A, use a pointer iterate from back and copy each character into a new array B, use strcmp(A,B)
proper gale
the loops that do the comparison would look something like this, java for(String word : words){ int wordLength = word.length(); boolean wrongFlag = false; for( int i = 0; i < wordLength; i++){ if(word.getCharacter(i) != word.getCharacter(wordLength - i)){ wrongFlag = true; } } if(!wrongFlag){ System.out.println(word); } }
split is a function of the string class afaik
yup, so, java String[] words = input.split(" ");
worthy dirge
You can split without a function easily, just check ASCII of a space
proper gale
yea, but this isn't C, we dont care about the upmost of efficiency.
ill show you how i would do this in C++ if i was doing it.
void stringThing(char* str) {
int currentStartingIndex = 0;
int currentEndingIndex = 0;
do {
if ((str[currentEndingIndex + 1] == ' '
|| str[currentEndingIndex + 1] == 0)
&& currentStartingIndex != currentEndingIndex) {
// ok found a string
for (int i = 0; i < (currentEndingIndex - currentStartingIndex + 1) / 2; ++i) {
if (str[i] != str[currentEndingIndex - i]) {
goto wrong;
}
}
for (int i = currentStartingIndex; i < currentEndingIndex; ++i) {
std::cout << str[i];
}
std::cout << "\n";
wrong:;
}
currentEndingIndex++;
} while (str[currentEndingIndex] != 0);
}```should work, thats my C++ version
worthy dirge
You can actually cut the iteration times of the for loop into half 😋

seeing a goto statement in code is like hearing someone swear for the first time.
vestal glen
(Assembly is full of swearing, or are jumps not gotos?)
round dome
jumps (in assembly) are much better than gotos (in C)
but jumping in assembly isn't the same as jumping in C or C++
there's abstraction for a reason
proper gale
@round dome yes yes, i wrote it in like 2 minutes and didnt even compile it, i doubt it works right.
also, in this case, the goto makes a lot more sense to be than a flag or some shit
best solution for java that i forgot about, is named scope.
vale maple
Goto should never be used. It is considered bad code and break/continue do the job as easily too.

worthy dirge
In c, split a string takes at least some 10 lines
glad pagoda
that i have to output every word which is the same when u reverse it
deep scarab
to split a string and print out palindromes?
deep scarab
yeah
glad pagoda
because that's the only word which stays the same when you reverse the sentence
glad pagoda
this is what i have rn setup with no codes, only design
i'll start writing under btn convert
and im stuck idk what to do
xd
deep scarab
reversing a sentence, is the same as splitting up the sentence into words, reversing the words and concating them
glad pagoda
do i start with a loop and save it in a string?
vale maple
Well you write your own split methode at some point and should just add IT as an include or how i do IT, have a while stringmanipulation package.
And i think my split methode is only 6 lines in C although admittingly unsafe.
deep scarab
it just sounds like your teacher wants you to find palindromes
glad pagoda
yeah but you dont have that on windows form
deep scarab
so the only event you need is the OnClick event for the button
doesn't matter
winforms is still c#
deep scarab
in your event make sure the input isn't empty
if it is, show a messagebox and return
vale maple
strtok(string, delimiter); actually exists too
glad pagoda
bare with me man im a noob
bool is_palindrome(string s)
{
int len = s.Length;
for (int i = 0; i < len / 2; i++)
{
if (s[i] != s[len - i - 1])
return false;
}
return true;
}
string sentence = "bob is a nice guy";
foreach (string s in sentence.Split(' '))
{
if (is_palindrome(s))
System.Console.WriteLn(s);
}
deep scarab
else, find the palindromes
deep scarab
that's a function
deep scarab
true/false
glad pagoda
but
deep scarab
but yeah
glad pagoda
i dont get it
should i not ssave the sentence in a string as soon as the button is pressed
deep scarab
why would you need to?
glad pagoda
why not?
glad pagoda
so if it's in the textbox it doesnt have to get saved
deep scarab
it's already saved in the textbox
string sentence = textbox.Text;
you could do that if you want
glad pagoda
ye i have it called input
input.text
alright
so
so that means
what ever is in the text box rn, is automatically string sentence?
deep scarab
.Text will get whatever's in the textbox
glad pagoda
@deep scarab if im annoying your ass jsut tell me
ah ye thanks for that edit
i was confused as fuck
xd
deep scarab
so when the user clicks the button, you want to get the text and output the palindromes
you also want to check that it's not empty
deep scarab
which?
glad pagoda
well idk u are the prof man xd
deep scarab
which do you think is right?
glad pagoda
i got no clue unless i google
deep scarab
well google
glad pagoda
i do know that different variables got different ones
deep scarab
not gonna learn if i tell you
glad pagoda
Empty()
or ""
how do i make sure that my string gives a message box saying '' no input '' for example when my string is empty
nvm got it
can someone explain me what this char[] temp thing means
and the chararray?
novel spear
@glad pagoda C# has a method called string.isnullorempty and isnullorwhitespace
you can also use a regex to validate
a char[] is an array of (I think) unicode characters, it has no wrapper to be a "string"
nocturne galleon
What do you want to do @glad pagoda?
novel spear
is this a homework assignment?
the reason I ask is the prof could want you to manually do checks, or they could want you to use the functions built in
in real life you would use one of: a regex, string.isNullOrEmpty, or string.IsNullOrWhitespace
a prof may want you do things like loop over each character and check if they are whitespace

Hi guys! I'm studying IT for a year now. Recently I've started using C# for my school project. Comparing it to what I was using previously which was C++ it feels nice. Anyways... I got hyped aaaaand really wanted to code my first mobile game. Can anyone recommend me what environment should I use? I was thinking about xamarin with CocoSharp/Coco2dx. What do you think about using Unity in combo with C#? I would like to learn as much as I can but I also would like to avoid writing the whole engine by myself. I got an idea for my first game and it will be based on well-known "Achtung die curve" game with my modifications. Can you help?
novel spear
If you are familiar with c# unity is cool but unity is also particular in a particular way
But its likely the best bet
For mobile c# game dev
Other options don't use c#
Or are more code and less game focused like the libraries you mentioned
There are some nice SDL bindings for c# as well if you want to go the graphics library route
And modern SDL is pretty decent on mobile
But it isn't a game engine its just a library
proper gale
@sleek narwhal C# has its problems, for engines i would say Unity for C# and sense you know C++, Unreal.
no language is perfect, the main fault of C# is also its biggest advantage, its garbage collected.
cloud knot
@sleek narwhal depends on what you consider mobile game development. You are pretty much tied to Xamarin tools to do mobile development in C#. Android uses Java and Kotlin as base languages; iOS uses Objective C and Swift. C# was the main language for Windows Phone 7-10, but obviously that is a dead platform

Uhh can anyone give me a tip for a good site about lambda? (java) that's a thing i don't really understand 😐
novel spear
Think of a lambda like a mini function inside your function
and that function can be passed around like a variable, for others to execute, without fully knowing what it does
it removes the need for creating like a whole class for one function basically
does this help? it focuses on "why does java need this?"
lemme know if you want a different sort of explanation and I will try to find it
obsidian bluff
jUsT uSE fUNctIoN pOiNTerS
novel spear
java doesnt have em
if they are reading that and curious, the diff would be that lambdas can capture scope and be locally defined in a function so they are more powerful.
You can do things like (syntax is wrong) var PersonNameLength = something(); sortBy(x => person.Name.Length > PersonNameLengthMax)
or whatever
this allows you to write neat functional code too, but im getting ahead of your question, so check the link first
(with great power comes great responsibility though)
novel spear
a function pointer is a pointer to a specific method, a class is a container with pointers to methods plural
and sure you can have an inner class with one method, but thats not the same as a function pointer
like they can functionally be used the same but anyone who dealt with events in old java will tell you it aint fun

A quick question about Google Drive:
It is possible to embed a Gdrive into an html website (via an iframe) - but if the folder contains a subfolder there is a problem:
You would think the subfolder opens up in the iframe again? NAH - it opens in a new tab ...
Any idea how to get an embedded google drive to open it's subfolders in the same iframe again?
Couldn't find a solution online
vestal glen
you can disallow it to open things in a new tab, but that'll probably just lead to it not doing anything at all
junior finch
Links are already set to open in the same tab - is that what you are talking about?
I'm gonna be honest - I have barely any expierence with html
This would be the example for the embedded google drive
The folder "yikes" would open in a new tab on click (Please ingore the nameing, it's just for testing 
)
vestal glen
that <base> is outside the iframe though? Plus, you want google drive to not open links in a new tab?
you can restrict what the iframe can do by having a sandbox attribute: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe#attr-sandbox
but that will probably just lead to it not opening the folder when clicking on it.

@junior finch you won't be able to do that. Google has various protections
x-frame-options: SAMEORIGIN
x-xss-protection: 1; mode=block
Drive sends those headers

@wary sequoia apache2ctl you mean

dunno, im copying and pasting from his own script
maybe that command works for him
it returned 0, so obviously its doing its job
problem is deeper, like apache itself

If you're using iframes you really shouldn't because there's so much shit that exists now in browsers to break them. Can't do a php require/include?

i got pissed when i was working network ops and made a bash script to run on F5s which take packet captures on its own and stops them during server health failures
took a while to write cause i was a noob
saved so much time later ^_^
you know how it goes.... incident ticket "why is there a failure once every 2 days at a random time. please run network trace"
but like 50% of the script is data validation because i wanted other techs to use it
xD
the nice part is that the script can be way more aggressive in health checking than the production F5 settings
so it would upset the issue and we found it faster

Can uBlock Origin use a wildcard as a subdomain? I want to target a CSS class on all of Reddit except for actual post threads.
Currently my plan is for reddit.com/r/*|$document Basically block the CSS element on all subreddit pages but not on the actual threads.
I would love to block Reddit entirely for productivity purposes but it breaks a ton of web searches. Heck, I had to disable some filters to read stuff about uBlock. Reddit is way too centralized at this point. Way too much word of mouth stuff there.

Anyone in here right now that is super savvy in Git & Github that could help me out?
mild remnant
Thanks!
So I have this private repo on github where there's a bunch of directories that are git clones from other repos I don't own. I've modified the contents of these git clones and some of them automatically were added as submodules and some weren't (I don't know why, I didn't even really know submodules were a thing, I just wanted to git clone them in, really) so when I push my sort of root repo to github some of these subdirectories (or submodules as they are now) don't actually contain any code. So if I clone my root repo somewhere they'll either be empty (that's what I got when I tried) or contain the current-commit state files of the original repo they came from.
In my repo, I just want all these git clones to be considered basically normal directories.
But it'd also be useful if they were themselves local git-repos that I could maybe merge from their root repos if they were updated.
I hope that makes sense, I'm very tired. Sorry for wall of text.
mild remnant
You'll have to elaborate on that a little bit. Do you mean I should use this when trying to clone my own repo somewhere or use this when cloning these other "submodules" into my own repo?
next haven
You would use that when cloning your repo somewhere.
next haven
^^ that too but it depends on your version of git. We have an older version at work so i use --recursive
mild remnant
I think I have the latest version of git
Which one should I use?
I just tried both and in both cases I ended up with empty directories for the submodules
next haven
I would use --recursive-submodules if you are running the latest
mild remnant
Yeah both methods gave me empty directories :/
I don't even think github bothers to store any of the contents of these folders
In the repo on github they're not links, they're just folders with a "sub-directory" icon, un-clickable
Yeah like I said, I didn't even know submodules were a thing really.
I just had my repo, and in the working folders I just did git clone LINK
And some of those clones are just normal directories
Some of them became submodules automatically somehow
I have no idea what's going on
I probably would have done that if I had known haha
Damn.
What happens though if I make changes in these submodules that I can't really push anywhere because they're not forks of a repo?
I kinda just want my repo to fetch all the files and not care that they're git clone repos and then if I were to actually browse to those git clone repos myself and git fetch or merge something inside of them, my main repo would not care, it'd just treat them as normal files in my repo.
That'd be optimal for me kind of... I think? If that's even possible
So
I've changed them ALL
To some degree at least
And there's quite a few of them at this point so
Ugh
All these clones are modules in a framework that I've changed configs for, added things to etc. Probably over 20 of them
Yeah you're probably right.
Although forks can't be private right?
Is there any way to have .git directories in these subdirs I have and have my repo not recognize them as submodules?

@nocturne galleon https://unigine.com/
i was asking if there is anyone with experiance with the engine.
its not commonly use for games, and focuses more on professional applications
though you can use it to make games, and they have. see Oil Rush.

So I was thinking of making a program that can create ironically a program for a school. There are about 20-30 courses all of them having standard level and higher level with some exceptions. What I want the program to do is to take the courses the students will have and making a flawless course plan. Like which hour goes each course. How complex is it?
I am looking forward to making this no matter how hard it might be, I just want a challenge
bleak summit
Thats not a simple question to answer
chilly oxide
Well simple. I mean @bleak summit is it do able at least
bleak summit
Yeah it's doable, we sent humans to the moon with computers, it's well within the realm of computing technology to write a program that schedules classes
chilly oxide
@bleak summit I am a beginner in java, so I dont know if its that easy
well I think if I set my mind to something I can achieve it so I am going to try my best
bleak summit
How "easy" it is is the complicated question
chilly oxide
by making a flow chart for starters
also @bleak summit what are some good ides for java because I tried eclipse and I wouldnt say its my favorite
I heard intellij is good but its not free
bleak summit
Unsure, I don't use java
proper gale
@nocturne galleon yes, 5% royalties on a mostly unrelated product.
i would much rather pay $1000/yr vs (depending on size) $10,000-$40,000 or more per installation. so unigine would be significantly cheaper for me to use.
@chilly oxide it's good, and its free.
chilly oxide
which one @proper gale

when I downloaded it it said trial or pay
I am going to try it right now again
you mean the intelij idea one ?
