returning to my unit in the new year and attempting to keep a modicum of overt fury to turn towards useful projects solving typical long-standing problems that still somehow escape multinational corporations like L3 and GD and Lockheed and shit (problems that escape them bescause they simply don't care despite there having been solutions for fifty fucking years)
resolving to make a beast of myself not because there is pain in being a man, but because men write off pain as a matter of course instead of seeking to reduce pain
>>107656407Nah, he is speed with low IQ. Total moron but his autism makes him sometimes look smart. The reason why he is so successful is because we live in kakistocracy where being complete fucking retard rewards you more then being smart, so long as you are lucky retard who manages to fail upwards and convince fellow retards to help you rise. Crypto gags are one of them because investing into virtual coins that are harder to process then regular banking back in 2010 was fucking retarded and yet everyone who did that became Uber rich as more retards invested in it.
Swearing vengeance upon those who create even minor inconveniences, as we share a trade and entire sector of industry that is support for other industries; we exist as a series of transporters and first responders, and anything that cannot eat a rocket and survive, or at least be immediately repairable, that deserves the first rocket.
i'm also a defacto secretary and part of my job is forwarding nato-formatted messages to the people who need to read them, and it's just an accepted part of the job that they come in mangled and it's a pain in the ass to clean them up. weird line break placement because of maximum string length, lack of line breaks because of cr vs crlf type shit, that sort of thing. not that the average operator seems to care about or even understand that, but either way, it's a pain in the asson one ship I was working on, as ISA, they happened to like having those messages also saved onto the shared drive (because apparently outlook isn't enough) but happened to enjoy having them as plaintextI wrote a powershell script to just rename the files like they wanted done manually. it wouldn't touch the contents, I still did that by hand because honestly there were too many stupid edge cases to deal with that checking a script's work would be equal to doing it myself in the first place. but it would at least draw the necessary info to rename the files properly and make a very basic attempt at formatting the (plaintext, human-readable) header properly.Every senior who saw it told me to stop doing that kind of thing. I got multiple bad performance reviews across several parachuted-in(figurative) bosses for working on it. The script's failure state was "give up and retain the original name", it didn't touch the actual text within, and everything came in through outlook (or radio teletype) anyway and thus had a reasonable local very immediate backup.Even if a future boss says it's ok, even if the forces as a whole adopts a new platform that just does that itself, I will fucking die mad about it ever not having been ok.

Mery crismos and all that>>107655914You can always tape it to somewhere if you have tape strong enough. Acrilic tape is pretty strong. All of my cables under the table actually drilled into the table itself via velcro ties. Also I have several cardboard boxes with power outlets extensions and other unsightly stuff.
>>107653853>>Hiding your USB piano? You look like you create music.Nah, I don't. I wish I could but I hardly can play anything. I just got this Fantomen though so maybe things will look better in the future.

>>107641565finally got new desktop, monitor, kvm, and dac/speaker setup complete in the new house. need a speaker stand for the right speaker.
I'm a rich hobbiest with free time and nothing to do but try to contribute to the field of AI safety, wat do?

Computers and Gaming hardware in general haven't become better, they just scaled up and brute forced their way to cope with inefficient software
>>107662714running synthetic benchmarks*also lacks cache which may not be important for desktop workloads
>>107662714You can check passmark or geekbench results, both have native linux builds.It's a bad chip with even worse memory. It retains the 4+4 ccx business of zen 2 with the tiny cache of laptop chips.
>>107662641Sort of. Things were actually improving and getting more streamlined until around 2018 or 2019. When raytracing and crypto mining became the big fad mixed with covid supply crunches is when everything GPU and software related started to become bloated shit. GTX 1050 was the peak of human civilization and that came out in 2016.
>>107662730It can't a bad chip when its predecessor was running a bulldozer architecture FX chip but somehow was running games fine for its time at 30fps...
>>107662741Ps4 was not bulldozer and it was as fast as pentium 4, complete joke of a cpu for a computer released in 2013
Why not just take C++ and remove legacy baggage?Why make it so unnecessarily complicated?
>>107662361I switched fully to C# + AOTStill rewriting my stuff but the main reason was the everlasting retardation of the C++ committee, terrible STL and braindead source/ header separation double work.C++ has been mismanaged all the way down to the smallest bits all the time.good riddance.Funny thing is, the same level of optimization I could do in C++ I can do now with modern C sharp.
>>107662424Isn't C# ecosystem pajeet hell
>>107662361>Why make it so unnecessarily complicatedtech industry has a lot of autistic faggots. you change one thing they will go into fetal position. about the time people lose interest their shitty puzzle language, thats when finally they fear becoming irrelevant and allow new features. Java was fagged up for like a decade as fags blocked closures and multiline strings, and it probably still does not have some literals. Fags will block exceptions in golang forever.
>>107662424C# is slow and niggerlicious though, hardly a replacement for C or C++..
ayo how close are we to full blown lifelike sexbots ma brothas?

Merry Christmas anons. Enjoy the holiday and don't spend it programming!
Is there a python module which takes a string and rotates it by one character each time you call it?
>>107662586nevermind I remembered deque exists
>>107662586def rotate(string): while True: string = string[1:] + string[0] yield string
def rotate(string): while True: string = string[1:] + string[0] yield string

>>107657981They will purposely never solve it. Hardware that dies over time is a feature. They want you to buy a new device every few years.

Python, one of the very few modern & popular programming languages not owned by big tech, is now begging hard for money at python.org (picrel), Wikipedia style.This comes after the PSF rejected an US government grant because the PSF can't stop shilling for DEI: https://developers.slashdot.org/story/25/10/28/211237/python-foundation-rejects-government-grant-over-dei-restrictionsThe same PSF then reported a surge of new donators following the above rejection: https://developers.slashdot.org/story/25/11/09/2017240/python-foundation-donations-surge-after-rejecting-grant---but-sponsorships-still-neededYet, they are now begging for money, using a big, intrusive and cringe banner at python.org, kek.This is what your donated money is used for: https://www.python.org/psf/grants>Conferences (e.g. PyCon Italia)>Event site subscriptions (Meetup.com) (e.g. London Django Meetup)>Django Girls Workshops (e.g. Django Girls Busan Workshop)>PyLadies Workshops (e.g. All Day PyLadies Workshop)These faggots have a whole page dedicated to their DEI philosophy: https://www.python.org/community/diversityTheir Libera Chat #python IRC channel is filled to the brim with trannies (they/them and she/her pronouns set as their IRC name).Comment too long.

>>107637894I could answer "hosting all those python packages, which are getting big because the ML ones all have CUDA packaged in" but Google is hosting all their packages for free under the table :^)
>>107654852>>107654973It's nearly impossible to steal those projects from under the wings of big tech, this is why even microsoft is doing FOSS these days.They have all the resources to fuck you up while they also have all the resources to hire developers and heavily market their own FOSS (or pseudo FOSS) products.E.g. even with chromium browsers promising ungoogled software, it's still google that dictates the design choices of chromium through chrome and the chrome web store.
