why are so many programming "help" groups like this? like, somebody will specifically opt into helping people, and then get frustrated when they dont do exactly what they expect. it constantly feels like im testing everyone's patience whenever i ask for help and its even harder trying to just learn everything myself, especially considering all the weird semantic differences in both the language itself and guides.like i can imagine a full script in my head but i wouldnt know how to translate it into the language im currently using. and on the offchance that i *do* get the help needed, usually its just "oh just use the blah function", so its not like i just Dont Know How To Code or anything i just dont know the shit thats specific to the engine, and its not like i can just look it up in a glossary or something because the words can be totally different from language to language, like how "object" in one language can be "entity" in another, and object in *that* language refers to an object in an array or something, so theres just a huge language gap that i cant really cross without the help of others, which sucks because working with others sucks
issue might also come from people who are into programming. most people that are into CS were bullied when younger, and now that they are a bit older and have some "knowledge" they can feel powerful about, they just love turning into dicks all of sudden.their truth is the only valid truth, and they love to force it to others. it applies to programming, it applies to dumb things such as OS selection, and you see it everyday here.chances are the geniuses won't be in these "help" groups.
>>107640271"Help groups" and "communities" are gay and full of grifting faggots that don't actually make anything. That's why they do that. They're just posting the law and the current fashionable framework or meme technique. They care nothing for experimentation and learning by doing and screwing up. You know, like a computer *scientist* would and not just some faggot cult member. Do yourself a favor and delete reddit, do not redeem discord and unplug /g/ unless for memes.>t. Engineer who likes to try the stupid way just to see why its stupid
>>107640805>"i program in a style very unique to myself and it throws people off"it just sounds like you write garbage-tier code. anyone can barf out spaghetti that kinda works, but that's not what people pay developers to do
>>107647276 when im actually able to execute what im trying to do its usually well recieved and optimized to a point where i can explain it to anyone without much issue. for example i recently made a rudimentary 3D renderer in a 2D engine and the entire thing was only like, 4 threads between 2 object types
>>107647419Code optimised (for performance) is not always good code for readability or maintainability or robustness for example.Now one thing that is true is that different areas have different requirements, and gamedev is often the type of programming that cares much less about traditional maintainability and much more about just pure optimisation and also writing it and getting it to work fast. This was especially true on older platforms and consoles were performance was at an extreme premium (and is somewhat less true today on modern engines). So if you're writing game code for esoteric or retro engines then fair enough, it's gonna be weird and that's fine.For almost anything else though the requirements are usually different. For a user-facing or desktop application, making the code easy to read, understand and expand with new features is much more important. For a business application, the biggest importance might be correctness, so making the code verbose, explicit in all its preconditions and invariants, and heavily testable. Etc. "Weird" code is usually considered trash code in those environments.If you're a gamedev it changes the context a lot compared to the above.

Beta is literal malware, constantly makes my volume go up and down. Uninstalled and rebooted and back to normal with the last official release. Sad. Maybe 10 years in the gulag will teach you how to say thank you, Pidor.

I have at least a few thousand photos and take 4K video often, have hundreds of songs, and keep at least a few seasons of TV on my phone and I have never used more than 128GB. I have no idea how someone could possibly need 512 GB+ unless they were doing a lot of lossless recording. Is software really that bloated now?
>>107647654Yes. F7 is also a good choice.
I have a Lenovo Idea Tab Pro which claims to be Android 15, but its completely different from what I'm seeing.Can I put regular Android 15 on it somehow
>>107648207What do you guys think I should do?
>>107648473Yeah i noticed but i don't get why they would remove SD card, i can understand removing jack port since earbuds are really affordable but why would they remove extended storage option.>>107648486You're right that i don't "need" more than 512GB+ but it feels comfier.>>107648675I only had samsung phones until now but i never used any of their services, i heard samsung phone are bad if you're planning to root your phone but never felt the need to do it so i don't know, i'll look into those one plus.>>107648703What takes the most of my SD card is game emulation but you're right that barely anyone has their game library on their phone.

>>107647244anybody got recs for a keycap set that's just black/grey/beige, real boring and standard looking, but with a decent font?Getting sick of my GMK shit and kinda want to regress
>>107648506GMK WoB or beige not good enough for you? Sweet fuck. A decent font? GMK has the best kitting for fonts and legends.
Regress all you want.
>>107648225I would like legends, but not in what was offered which were white legends on white keys. I can't recall the last time I Had to look at my keyboard to type anything, so going to no legends and a complete set of it for 60 bucks was a no brainer compared to the 120 or whatever they were asking for the double shot PBT ones with legends. I would have purchased the doubleshot ones if they came with dark gray stealth legends however.

But why? There are no games worth upgrading for
>>107649021>Just like your grandpa still claims Japanese products are shit and nothing beats Made In USA but you know better.Yeah, made in Germany, that's an actual sign of quality.
>>107649049Your old games will run better too. Playing 10 year old games at native 4k and 240 FPS, bliss.
>>107649049>>107649065This. A game like X4 gets something ridiculous like a 2~3x fps boost when using an X3D because of late game fuckery raping CPU's.

>>107648566why do you think your mouse has a scroll wheel on it
>>107649050To scroll documents. Somehow I remember it only seeking the video. Also one of my cheap chink mice has a busted rotary encoder, probably why I never noticed. Good job, you must be the lord of trannies.Mark this solved.(damn dice)
People used to invent things.
No, that's just putting two things together. Literally chinkshit-tier.
Women used to be only moderate whores
>>107648836I invented many things. Unfortunately for me I invented things to help people and bypass the status quo. Turns out you can't raise capital from people who want to control everything and reject funding something that would help humanity over themselves. The kicker is the masses don't give a shit either, they're oblivious, so crowdfunding is fucked. I even came up with a solution to crowdfunding for capital to work with the masses and their stupidity, but the cost of the legal side would be astronomical and the government would step in to destroy it.So the conclusion I've reached is that you can't actually solve any problems that matter. Only remaining option is to sit back and watch the shit show unfold while insulating yourself as much as possible. It's like watching rekt videos, eventually you appreciate the art of stupidity.
Why are these commies trying to replace sudo?
is software maintained by non-profit organizations niggerlicious?
>>107648800Depends of the org and quantities of trannies and niggers on it.
Not always. State/gov software tends to be pretty bad. But some other kinds of nonprofits might get genuine crusader personalities that do it for the love of the game and the mission and enforce something decent.
>>107648800Profit is niggerlicious. Products of divine intellect belong to God who shines the light of his wisdom upon all who would open their eyes.
>>107648800In general, software made for big teams to work on is niggerlicious, whereas software made by a small group of dedicated people is divine intellect.Basically Conway's law
