can someone explain to me what an API actually is? i get the general jist but when people referemce windows API's and API's on the web what do they actually mean?https://web.archive.org/web/20170713124108/https://bytepointer.com/resources/pietrek_in_depth_look_into_pe_format_pt1.htmim reading the above which is a good read but things like " From an API standpoint, the primary mechanism provided by Microsoft for reading and modifying PE files is IMAGEHLP.DLL." i dont understand what API means

>>107744993>I don't quite understand what you mean with deserializelike the usual way save files, etc. are handled is>create a class with all the relevant data you need for a map, save file, whatever, like MapData, then you establish that MapData class as serializable>in C# that amounts to putting [System.Serializable] on top of the class name but in java it's probably different>then you use some fuckery to convert it into a pure binary string (serializing it), and make a file out of it and put it in a directorythen later>get file(s) in directory>try to read all the string and try to deserialize it into MapData again>read data out of the MapData class and use it in game
>>107744993>>107745060to make it crystal clear, serialization is a specific method you call in C#. idk how shit is done in j*va

Have you ever considered the possibility that some day normal consumer won't be able to afford a computer anymore?With GPU and RAM price increases, this nightmare scenario seems likely.Wireless Internet connections might also get so full of traffic that one day fast Internet will be a luxury as well.1. Give people cheap tech so they get dependent on it.2. When they're addicted, start ramping up the price + scarcity3. WinMe? I'm already learning ways to survive without technology. In a few years you might have to live without tech.

No one cares? For decades this smooth presentation was the standard for live and taped television.
If you want to see some examples of what 60 fields per second look like there is a channel on youtube called Reely Interesting. This person preserves the motion clarity of the original tapes by uploading in 4k 60 frames per second. https://youtu.be/gDMtKrPYVjs
Is this the same homosexuality guy who thinks movies should be shot in 60FPS?
>>107744953I have no idea who you are talking about, and this is a completely separate topic. This is addressing hundreds of thousands of hours of television that have already been made in 60 fields per second, but are not being archived in a way to preserve that.
>>107743592proper deinterlacer uses previous field as if keyframe reference with motion prediction?
The fact I've never heard of "fields per second" and I have little idea what OP is talking about leads me to believe that he may be onto something and I have been the victim of a con.

you already know that for years now, big tech has been paying shills to shit-talk Linux and other FOSS projectsand with all the AI progress, most of the shilling is not done manually any more, it is mostly automated botsso why not fight fire with fire?why don't we set up something that scans internet for relevant discussions and automatically makes posts that promote Linux and digital freedom?

Not true, I don't even think FOSS is on their radar. Outside of servers and infrastructure no one in the professional world even thinks about FOSS. In fact based on Youtube comments I seen those sever sysadmin people refer to the Linux software community as hobbyist. so please don't spread disinfo

I have 5 Thinkpad t420, and ALL of them are missing the SSD rubber rail things. I was looking at replacements and for 4 of them I'd be paying like 50 bucks. Reading this thread I'm starting to think there's no use in investing in these at all. Anyone wanna chip in and give me their opinions on this?

>>107743727>But how do you handle music?The same way you handle graphics and input and filesystem operations and literally anything else in programming: you find an API you want to use that works on the platforms you want to run, and use it. For every individual question like this you have to search it and do some research. In this day and age you can also ask LLMs for advice (don't use them to write code though, if it's for a learning project).If you really want a hint, look up SDL. It's one of many options for doing stuff but it's a relatively widely used one. What it does is abstract away some APIs for stuff like graphics, UI, platform-specific input management, sound etc. You can look up its APIs and use it.SDL itself just uses lower level APIs from various platforms. For graphics that would be OpenGL, DirectX, Vulcan. For sound I don't know off the top of my head but there's similar shit. And so on and so forth. You can use those directly. Or you can use another toolkit, or a variety of toolkits.
is it possible to learn electronics digitally, without hardware? are there any arduino emulators or something like that?
>>107744910>is it possible to learn electronics digitally, without hardware? are there any arduino emulators or something like that?I'm going to be a dick and say no.A large proportion on the code I've written for various controllers is there to deal with the vicissitudes of real world inputs.

LeCun fucking hates Zuck's gut huh?
>>107743505They should stop masturbating about stateless mathematical models (because both symbolic AI and neural networks are about logic and math not computing or programming) and start focusing on stateful programs that are actually agentic (in the original sense of the word not in the llm corrupted marketing sense) by having internal state, internal goals and a real model of the world (LeCun is right about this part), all of this not through mathematical models but through programming. If our current languages and databases are not enough then we should make progress there, for example by researching graph databases and new languages that make expressing complex and dynamic rules about the real world possible.But corpos only want to sell their datacenter services, to them its a feature how inefficient LLMs are, and most researchers are not programmers they are stuck in their bubble of academia writing their papers in their ivory towers.
>>107743634This guy's proposed alternative to neural nets is better programming languages and databases.Absolutely fucking kek.
>>107743670The connectionist idea that the brain is an input/output stateless machine is ridiculous and an insult to life.Yes, the road to intelligence goes through stateful programming not through stateless mathematical models.And yes, computer science has barely advanced at all in the last 40 years, but that's because all the resources are used on bullshit corporate or academic shit that is not even meant to advance it.
>>107743698Apparently, actually most advanced (human like AI) Neurosama was coded in python and it didn't learn from LLMs, but from twitch chats only. Basically mogging all "AIs" while being made from scratch. It's not the same kind of "AI" but looks more like intelligence than the other ones.
>>107743634Neuromorphic models work a lot better. They use local state and local mutation only, which lets them do tricks like learning things in real time. So far, they've mostly been used to study how human senses work and integrate with the brain, rather than shooting for intelligence (because understanding sensing is more immediately useful).They're an absolute bitch to implement in normal hardware though, due to the comms bandwidth required, and GPUs are no use at all for them (it's just a different architectural model).
