Because pushing back and resizing a vector can be slow and may cause my program to stutter, if the vector is big. I believe that's the most common reason for stutter on my game.

Are you making a DOS game on a 486? If not, forget about this nonsense and attach a profiler to it.
I am genuinely curious as to how you got from "hmm maybe I need to resize this less often" to "better fuck up my packed array with some useless NaNs".

>>107859846
That's how I got rid of a stutter once. I was creating vectors of vectors of integers every frame for the tilemap system. Then the program would stutter every time I crossed the edge of a tile block. To fix that, I allocate a few blocks worth of data and reuse them every frame now.

Anyway, the NaNs thing was a brainfart. I could just make a vector of structs and reserve at the beggining. My bad.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

Which is the true neo-schizoomer's language of choice?
3 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
odin until jai comes out, andrew kelley is too gay to take seriously
>>
>>107859428
Neither. Odin is made by an obnoxious old brit who wears a suit. Zig is made by a boring rich libtard from Seattle. These are languages created by single people, so they are inevitably kind of personality cults. No self respecting schizo zoomer would join a cult of personality around people like that.
Jai used to be peak young schizo aesthetic because of how jblow used to hate everyone and only cared about games and art over corposlop. Nowadays he's softened up a lot, but I still think it's a good candidate. Especially if you're not in the beta and you use a leaked version, I'd say that's pretty hardcore.
But overall the only good schizo languages are still things like lisp, C or HolyC.

What is better: a 14" or a 16" MacBook Pro? I can't decide. It's unironically too difficult to decide. On one hand, I would prefer the larger display, on the other hand I use my laptop exclusively when I can't use my PC to do something, which means I need a laptop for use around the house and carry it outside first and foremost. I absolutely do not want to use an external monitor almost ever though.

It's not overdriven and it never gets hot.
One of the big problems with LED bulbs is precisely that they are bulbs, the legacy form factor is unsuited for the technology.
You should upgrade your lamps if possible - new ceiling lamps for LEDs have an opening above the bulb for ventilation.
>>
>>107855589
Manufacturer logic is driving LEDs 5x harder for an extra 10% light output, instead of just adding another few LEDs and running everything cool and efficient.
There's no reason modern LED bulbs couldn't last decades other than greed.

No they don't. I mean, they've collected the information that they could use to figure it out if you became a person of interest, but they don't just "know" anything. Do you have any idea how much information our intelligence apparatus has to process? They don't care about you, they don't know you exist, you are not a victim of anything. You weigh 400lb and have a large CP collection on your Arch Linux install, and as a result you are understandably paranoid.

I can't help but feel 99% of the people that DO use them are sad sacks trying to grift onn youtube and think they need to overedit video in 4K because somehow they will get likes and subscibes if people can see their zits more easily and becaus ethey are retarded and are basically tech illiterates they just buy thing that is expensive becaus eother retards on youtube said so.

I fucking hate IT work now but I actually had a recuiter call me last week truing to hardsell me some cunty contract and you know what it was? Some 1000+ staffed company that wanted to get rid of office 365 and go back to office 2010 via RDS becaus etheir CEO had thrown a rage fit and fired their admin because all their excel and SQL garbage had stopped working again.

You say you don't care about playing new games on high settings and I'm happy for you but pretending that you don't understand why other people would just makes you look like an idiot. If you're content playing 10 year old games and have no use for high end hardware then that's fine but writing multiple novels of pure seethe in this thread over the choices other people make is bizarre.
