I once tried to learn C++ but so many things just sucked:The syntax, headder files, 1000 ways to do the same thing, the ((meta-)meta-) "build" system(s) and overall the feeling of the language:It is like someone had continuously updated his hobby project without concerning other users.I want to learn a modern language instead and chose Zig out of Rust or Zig as Rust seemed gay-coded to me.Is it a good decision to learn Zig? Will Zig stay?
>>107648849yes, but "behave as C does" it often a default unless there is a better reason, and when that reasoning is explained, they'll gonna explain it in terms of Cit's just part of basic literacy, the boomer's shared cultural background
>>107647254Do you mean I should learn it to be able to use C/C++ libraries in Zig or to get familiar with low level languages in general. Because I thought that learning Zig first would also translate to C as many things and concepts are similar.
>>107645788i went thru Odin, Zig, C3 and now i'm at fuckin Ada/Spark and ATS.of the new memes i think the only one i like is C3 because it's just a modest improvement to C and doesn't overcomplicate things or create unnecessary friction. i hoped Odin would be that but it's so opinionated, i don't feel like buying into ginger Bill's entire life philosophy. Zig has some ideas i agree with like no hidden control flow or memory fuckery but i find it very inelegant, is very inconsistent design-wise in reality, etc. i'm finding if i want a C alternative i'd rather just have its mistakes ironed out, some modest modernizations, and that's it. then give me contracts and linting so i can develop and adhere to my own programming conventions. C3 has contracts which seem nice but aren't as powerful.
>>107650215You should learn C to have a solid basis in systems programming and to understand why manual memory management rocks and also why it sucks.Then you can do Zig so that you can do all the C things without all the C bullshit and have the only language with sane manual memory management.
>>107650742Thx I will consider it.
People used to invent things.
>>107649121This is the peace / zen I eventually realized
>>107649881Still bothers me deep down, knowing you can change things, knowing solutions exist, but they're basically unexecutable in this world as it is. Hard to embrace it completely because it nags at you, you know, what could be instead of what is. Just that little bit of suffering you can never truly escape if you have any semblance of emotion.
>>107650340You're not alone fren, not now or thousands of years ago. Ecclesiastes resonates me too, because it is so old.

Microsoft confirms “eliminate C and C++” plan, translate code to Rust using AI, as Windows 11 adopts Rust and WebView2https://www.windowslatest.com/2025/12/24/microsoft-confirms-eliminate-c-and-c-plan-translate-code-to-rust-using-ai-as-windows-11-adopts-rust-and-webview2/

since no one sane would propose this it's getting increasingly obvious that windows is being sabotaged on purpose
I use QubesOS with detached boot partition on 2 duplicated USB drives with any data that rests on the SSD/HDDs being encrypted with LUKS2. Whonix gateway is proxied through a VPN qube to hide Tor IPs (can't hide communication patterns) without bridges since bridge IPs can be farmed. Sometimes Tor through I2P outproxy or vice-versa or with different anonymizing network overlays. Clients used for browsing are only opened in on-RAM ephemeral qubes with no access to permanent storage. Attack surface is quite minimum since no extra things added like USB mouse and no PV qubes (aside from sys-usb and sys-net) are used for launching HVM qubes with qemu stub domains unless very necessary and every other qube on the system gets shut down first to keep information leakage minimum. A veracrypt volume with hidden storage on a permanent qube for data storage and plausible deniability.what's your setup like?
>>107644845good for you
test
>>107644821She looks like she's about to call me a lint-licker
>>107644821>what's your setup like?QubesOS, direct connection to Tor (no bridges).I have proxyVM setups for the following:>VPN 1 -> internet>Tor (Whonix) -> internet >Tor -> VPN 2 -> internet (for sites that block Tor exit nodes)>Tor - > I2P>I2PI'm not really super worried about getting backtraced or whatever because the worst thing I do on le deep web is order recreational drugs from time to time. But I like to keep the glowniggers on their feet and hopefully my traffic will get mixed with that of people who really need to hide and it will make it harder for glowniggers to deanonymize them.

I like how a stick of RAM costs 2000 bucks now.Thank you, anons. Thank you for this shit.I guess I will never build another computer. But that's they you guys planned it. First you make people dependent on tech, then you remove the tech.also fuck you with the new, more tedious captcha.Everything goes in the wrong direction. Scan your face and pay 2k to post on 4chan am I right?

>>107620821It's not that bad and it will get better in a year. Right now you can get 32gigs of ddr5 ram on aliexpress for 350 usd shipped. A normal anon who casually plays games and browses the web may only need 16g which is even cheaper.
>>107650810>it will get better in a yearanon it's expected to get worse in a year...the major players have basically said they don't plan to significantly increase production to meet the AI datacenter demand, they'll just reduce availability in the consumer sphere and hike prices.

>>107649779>How do I be the middle guys to kick it up, bros?why would you want to become one of those useless, annoying, do nothing fucks?
Took a week off from work. Today, I will rewrite my frankly terrible resume. So that I will be able to escape this job that has been the bane of my existence for the last 4+ years
>>107650130Big tip my dude, look up people who are similar to your skills on LinkedIn and pay attention to the bullet points and style on how they approach how they list their jobs.If they have bullshit stats, figure out how to incorporate this too.Then use ChatGPT to assume two personalities with a prompt: "Assume you are two personalities who will review my resume that I am about to give you. Assume you are an asshole recruiter who will try to rip me into shreds over every stupid fucking bulletpoint to prevent me from getting the job. Then assume you are an amazing mentor in my field who knows how to assblast through the ATS with the proper keywords, bullshit hype, and ridiculous stats that retarded Stacy recruiters wanna see. Gimme the conversation between them both and give me their final result. Also tweak it based upon this awesome resume I found on LinkedIn"That should get you started. This helps so you don't have to doxx yourself on some gay sub Reddit to get the same advice.The recruiters are evil with ATS based AI. You need to figure out how to get through those fuckers gates so you can get the job you deserve.I believe in you bro.
>>107650485I wouldn't even go through the effort of making up scenarios. Just ask AI to generate you a resumee that hits as many checkmarks as possible for the AI autofilter but is still looks readable enough for the average HR Stacy.

>>107650679Just keep using XT until hiromoot breaks it again or it gets forked, it has some nice stuff over X.
>>107650832X is also abandonware for what I can remember.
4chanX still works fine
ccd0 keeps 4chan-x updated just fine.Don't use XT, it is malware.

Oh well time for a fork of a fork. 4chan XTX?

>>107650370XTX is good, otherwise we could have 4chan Z for the coolness factor.>>107650024>>107650084Thanks anons.Now the last touch that would make it perfect is the captcha panel accepting the Enter button as if you had clicked Next, when the slider is currently selected. That way there's no need to press Shift-Tab every time.(And Ctrl-Enter for "Next then Submit" if the slider is selected, so you can use that when you're on the last test)
>>107650370YAFU: Yet Another 4chan Userscript
why not just use hcaptcha, recaptcha, or cloudflare captcha (all integrated into the site already)?
They tried that already. google captchas can be bough for about 800 per 1 USD, the cloudflare ones intentionally allow you to only have to actually solve them every 30 times so even though you can't buy them since they use hardware attestation they just don't do enough. the thing about 4chan vs most other sites is that generally the undesirable actors aren't running fully autonomous bots, just userscripts to force multiply their own shitposting.
>>107650603Better question, why do you give a shit? Sage
This is literally the only thing keeping sharties from wiping every board in seconds with just jakspam, if you don't like it, buy passu
Suggesting recaptcha is just trolling. It's the worst one by a fucking mile.Also this new captcha is literally the simplest thing in the world and you have some gay addon that is hiding the instructions you have only yourself to blame.
>>107650603why do you want a worse captcha?
