the competency crisis is becoming to much now. every single thing is dog shit now. made by literal mouth breathing retards who don't know what they're doing. every website is dog shit. every web service is dog shit. I'm one of the last few super geniuses left.
>>102465164you idiot you will never understand us geniuses
>>102472264>I am an inch deep in every god damn thing.I can relate. I think the Boomer overlords see us as "computer touchers" and assume we do anything and everything computer. Because we can rotate the cow, we generally succeed enough for them to be satisfied. Specialization would require the executive class to understand "computer stuff" is hyper fragmented and can be done very poorly or exceptionally well, but I don't see them A) being capable of understanding that until the older generation dies of and B) caring because they make money either way in most cases.
>>102474090Oh yeah I'll just take out a small loan of 50000 fucking dollars
>>102474383What is "warzone"?
>>102472264I walked away from 20 years of an IT career for similar shit. Although in my case I'd risen into a position (architecture) where my day was pushing paperwork and 'making cases' for things to get done. With so much stuff becoming commoditized and 'going cloud', I could see that this was only going to get worse over time.Fortunately I've made enough money that I can coast with minimal expenses from here on out. A waste of capability, though.That finish to my career had me struggling with a lack of purpose in life, and to be honest that part hasn't got much better after I ditched it.
If you do anything other than "A" you're a certified psychopath

>>102469468I do 'A', but i'm considering now becoming a 'B' tard, the reason is that i sometimes activate the light when taking out the phone. i have axiety because of videos of roasties being aggroed and think you somehow are filming them if the light is on.

IT'S FUCKING OVERhttps://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/20/qualcomm-reportedly-approached-intel-about-takeover.html
If Qualcomm buys Intel then that would officially make AMD the whitest tech company
>>102475491>bubble popsMeans value goes down.>share popsMeans value goes up.Explain this, anglos.
AMD and Intel have a cross licensing agreement for x86 and x64. Part of that contract says the license is null and void if either company gets acquired. If Intel was bought by Qualcomm, they would no longer be able to produce chips with x64 instructions and tech. AMD would no longer be able to produce chips with x86 instructions and tech. Net result is AMD couldn't produce anything and Qualcomm could only produce ancient 32 bit x86. No doubt as part of the process of buying Intel, they'd make some sort of deal with AMD, perhaps selling the rights to x86 completely so the new Qualcomm/Intel could focus on ARM/RISC.
intel cannot go bankruptit is impossiblethey are a jewish company, deeply supported by the jew-S-Athe american golems can and will absorb all losses of intel
>>102476461How can a literal nobody country that was made up of only farmers and dumb people, become the literal goon that controls the supposed biggest and most powerful country in the world?This has to be some kind of hell of an israel derangement syndrome I've never seen before, you say ukraine to a mutt, and they shit their pants saying how russia ought to destroy them, you say israel and they shit and piss themselves about how everyone should send them trillions to blow kids in the middle east.
Does this just werk?
stock image retarded question
>>102476720yes it absoulutely does, i use it to have my headphones on my GBA or my PSP.
>>102476720no i didn't get internet
>>102476720Yes but only in 1 direction.
>>102476720Kind of. You start losing voltage so the audio becomes softer as you add more splitters.
I like membrane keyboards.
>>102474635Cool
>>102474635Same. I use a corsair K55 and it's way better than any mechanical keyboard I've bought and much quieter.
same and it doesnt bother too much if i spill my drink on it for the nth time

Why do they keep trying to make it mainstream?
If it ever gets unified for an interface and to make it even cheaper, VR has a chance
>>102475686>not creating VR controlled cars, trucks, busses, etc and getting a bunch of 3rd worlders to drive themZuck was right about VR tech but missed the goals with the application because everybody thought AI would be able to do it.
>>102475686Childhood dreams are difficult to kill even after finding out they're impractical. Funny enough, this also explains a lot of the retardation in boomer foreign policy.
>>102475686Some people want to strap shit to their face for fun, I don't know, I don't get it either.
the use cases are just so generic or specific no inbetween I know people that use it to design car parts and building interiors and they had to create a lot specific tools to do that. I also know people that use it solely for porn and video games. Also it's incredible how useless the Apple Vision Pro still is. It's a complete meme toy and Apple's feature of using it to watch movies on a place is literally the most useful thing it does.
Are there ANY anons here who use a Mac as their daily driver, at work and/or at home?There have to be at least a couple, right? Everyone complains about Windows, but desktop and battlestation threads are full of Windows 11

>>102464123I've used a MacBook pro m1 max 14" since launch, it was a lot of money though. Like $4,200 I think since I got 64gb ram 2tn storage. I won't pay that much again but it's been great
I got an Air 2020 last year, its a fantastic computer. I wouldn't ever buy Apple pre Apple Silicon but this is basically a fantastic little laptop, very well built and it literally runs at room temperature with no fan, so you can expect it to last until 2030 and beyond easily. And the best part is MacOS is unix based so I can basically do everything I was doing on linux previously.Is it overpriced? Sure it is, but I can afford it.
>>102477241>so you can expect it to last until 2030 and beyond easilyas long as you're not wrecking the SSDi've used mine heavily for 1.5 years and my SSD wear is still at 0%, so it definitely can be done
>screen with great color accuracy>non flimsy build quality>great speakers for a laptop>10h+ battery life>great trackpadThe formula is right in front of them. The literal laptop boilerplate.I've tried tons of non-macbooks around the same price tag +-$1000, no dice. Making me unwillingly go back to Macbooks every time. Don't turn this into a lazy mac vs pc thread, discuss why this is the case. And of course, if you know any non-macbooks that ticks all those boxes, please share with the class.
>>102476361Do you own one, I've never had crappy products that break on me, except every Razer product I've ever purchased.

>>102468267There's a bunch of laptops that fit all the criteria out there, the problem is that you don't want to use anything other than applel garbage.Plus, the build quality on applel products is literally subpar, you can't fucking be so incompetent you literally fuck some basic shit like a display cable or sata cable that break with normal use.

Welcome to the Daily Programming Thread. What are you working on, /g/?Previous Thread: >>102403295
>>102476957oh, so it's bottom up, makes sensebut from what I'm understanding, most japanese games require the jap locale simply because they didn't bother using the W versions of the functions?like, the entire reason why LocaleEmulator is a thing is just because they write a fucking A instead of a W?
>>102476957You might also wonder>why all this CreateFile and NtCreateFile nonsense?That's because CreateFile still hails from the days when Windows had a strong MS-DOS underbelly. It used to be part of the kernel - literally, as part of kernel32.dll - but NT and NtCreateFile have since supplanted all this nonsense. Most programs still only ever call CreateFileW because NtCreateFile is ... ... special; it's not only used for file accesses, but also the NT namespace, and requires an appropriate prefix (\??\) before the actual path so that it knows it's supposed to access the file system.

>>102477105>\??\C:\what backwards compatibility does to a mf
>>102477050>so it's bottom upYes.>like, the entire reason why LocaleEmulator is a thing is just because they write a fucking A instead of a W?Probably not entirely. Locales don't just hold information about which character encoding to use implicitly, there's also character sorting (is "ä" following an "a" or a "z"?), currency information, decimal BS ...https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/setlocale-wsetlocale?view=msvc-170#generic-text-routine-mappingsAlso, as >>102476783 noted, there's a chance they simply used generic CreateFile, which would've mapped to CreateFileA if UNICODE/_UNICODE wasn't specified. Accidental omittance is more likely.
did any of those 'lets make python fast' projects pan out?
>>102473700Snake got pissed when it got the door closed on it.It just wanted some company or eggs.Eggs do taste pretty good.#notallsnakes #snakelivesmatter #gimmethoseeggs
>>102468731The polars library uses Python as an interface for Rust for data processing tasks (much faster than pandas which uses C). You can also use pyspark if you want to use Python as the interface to a JVM coordinating cluster computing in Spark. Some libraries do support multithreading/multiprocessing and therefore can go pretty quick. So, yes, but only because Python is using other technologies rather than being fast itself. Since Python can interface with all these different technologies, I think it's clearly the best option to learn in 2024 and specialize into your given industry using its purpose-built libraries. I also really like Jupyter notebooks because it's a similar story of one interface for many solutions (scripting, visualization, reporting, documentation, etc with few downsides).
>>102468731Python's problem is not really the implementation, it's just a badly designed language. It's basically impossible to make fast without cutting off a lot of features and breaking compatibility
>>102476419Part of that is that there is a thick wad of complexity between the surface that most programmers see and the way things work at the bottom. Which wouldn't matter except many common libraries use that shit to do their clever tricks, so if you try to optimize it out and get some real speed, you end up breaking lots of people's code. Yet if you don't, you can't make a big difference to the speed at all.Also, the base of the implementation has some shit ideas (like how the GIL works, the threading and memory management model in general, that sort of thing) that hurt things a lot, but the real problem is a bit higher up.
>>102468731I always thought you can simply somehow translate all this into JS and have node/v8 fix the performance for you with Google's auto-magic. But I've never seen it done. If you do it that way, you can probably even replicate the native interfaces.
