can someone tell me how the 4chan does its post previews? i am just putting the preview in the middle of the page for now.

also do you think it would be okay to launch my site without a working mobile version? im essentially going to have to remake my site in order to accomadate for it

Working on the temple.
I got really tired yesterday and bought into Claude (TM) again. It actually did it and made it possible to install templeOS on my HDD - I had some write issues on ATA.
Now setting everything up, trying to burn CDs from inside templeOS such that I am completely self hosted.
Then prolly setting up some data exchange over serial with xmodem such that I can transfer data not only via CD.
Then a bit more comfiness on my dev setup.
Then improvement of my risc-v assembler such that I can go towards writing a holyC compiler for risc-v and finally achieve the goal of writing an OS on my fpga, from templeOS - the very last one wasn't included initially, but i took some turns eh

Guys please help me. I'm using ZeroBrane to write a game in Lua (the game is called Escape from Epstein Island). The issue is that the Zerobrane Debug terminal output decided at some point to stop doing newlines. It's just concatting all to one line now, and so my print() statements are no longer producing correct output. The output gets truncated at the edge of the terminal.

MaidCard Maker was an attempt to make a fully human readable MaidCard, so jannies would stop banning maids for trying to share code. It exists mostly because they refuse to increase the 2000 character post limit. It just reads/writes plain text over a PNG using a tiny bitmap font, so nobody can claim it is steganography or being used to do anything other than share code, because you can see the contents without tools.

What's a good argument against function overloading?
>>
>>109942317
C++
>>
>>109942317
more complicated ABI, overloading is one of those features that basically requires name mangling of some kind
if you think about it, you're picking between being forced to include type information in the signature, either implicitly (via name mangling) or explicitly (e.g. add_float, add_double, etc.)
explicitly will always be inherently easier to debug because you won't have worry about how overload resolution is handled

and aside from well formed constructs like doing math between scalars, vectors or matrices or (de)serialization where you have one symbol being used to indicate multiple distinct operations depending on the type of each argument what do you actually need function overloading for

personally I don't dislike it necessarily and when you really want it not having it can be really fucking annoying
fun fact: vulkan's GLSL extension for fixed width types doesn't actually provide fixed precision 32 bit types as defined in SPIR-V, only makes them an alias to indefinite precision float/int/uint so overloading only works for non-32 bit types
except for functions provided internally by GLSL which get a special exception for no reason

>>
>>109942699
Yup.
And obviously in order to save an arbitrary amount you'll just need more loops.
Have your total amount in whatever precision you need, whether 16bit, 24bit or 32bit, and then shift it right 12 spaces for the number of (up to) 4k chunks you'll need to write.
Then you have an outer loop that will set up addressing for the current source chunk and destination, then an inner loop that will copy up to 4k bytes, and then loop until you're out of chunks.
Easy.
>>
>>109945268

HealthState healthstates[] = {{25, "Critical"},{50, "Wounded"},{80, "Hurt"}};

>>opening brackets on new lines
my argument is for compactness where it doesn't hurt readability. Putting the bracket on the same line does hurt readability. Notice my grouping also introduces spacing between the statements where it doesn't have to. Putting the bracket on a newline is objectively better because it makes it easier to see clearly, like a title on a page.

maybe for some automated parser but not for a human
it's easier to read code when it's not spaced vertically so aggressively. that's literally what your argument actually says. you don't need to make a hyperbole to make that point, it would still have solid ground if in the "readable" code had opening brackets on the same line

>>109949092
>It's easier to visually match up brackets that way.
IDEs and text editors have the ability to highlight the innermost block of code the cursor is on, and/or the other matching bracket if the cursor is on a bracket
having the opening bracket on the same line makes it a bit easier to read what instruction the closing bracket applies to, which is usually more important than just finding the matching bracket without context

there definitely is a lot of value for experts at least currently, simply because how specific you have to be to get LLMs to actually produce anything of good quality. I mean for example being specific about how you want to layout your data or having some domain knowledge that differs from the general solution to your problem. shit like this needs to be explained in detail to get the desired outcome.

Imagine you are throwing a party. Your party has a small amount of attendees and a small amount of good food for the attendees. The attendees are happily having nice conversations. Suddenly, ten thousand homeless people show up with bags of garbage they've sourced from dumpsters behind city restaurants. Now, your party is very large and some of those bags contains things that are technically edible, so there is more food available too. There is also now much more communication, as drugged out, mentally ill homeless people begin shouting about their delusions. You can no longer hear what the original attendees were talking about, and their conversation is effectively made impossible by noise. Was the party improved overall? Did quality increase with quantity? Was it improved for the small number of people who were there before?

More people is usually a detriment, and the focus on large user bases only matters if you're trying to be a normie social media site. Those sites are digital cattle pens for stupid people, where the goal is to serve ads and specific ideas to as many people as possible, rather than anything interesting or useful.

I've been getting in to bare metal embedded software. written a few controllers and I also created a zephyr project and ported one of my applications to it

why is the point of an RTOS? I feel like it's adding way more complexity to my program for very little gain. maybe it makes more sense if I have more boards instead of using the same board for everything? It's not like linux where I can run a hundred different pieces of software, it kind of just seems like a way to let me ignore the vendor specific aspects of the board, which is maybe nice but I feel like the resource constraints means you need to custom fit to every board anyways

>>109958707
>>109959242
My experience is that when it was used it was mostly for code structuring, clear separation of concerns (tm) and all the cosmetic shit. Controllers are fast af nowadays so you often don't care about that little overhead.
But apart from that yes, if you go towards hard real time, it's important

>>109959439
how is it any more predictable than a standalone program executing on the core? and in regards to code structuring, the type of cores you run bare metal on are tiny, are you really able to fit so much code on to them that you need to add the overhead of an RTOS just to keep it clean?

ok i just looked up even the smallest STM32F401 has 128K flash.
Even that is a lot of code. If you get anything bigger you are quick at 1MB flash size.
On predictability there are tons of way to do it and heavily depends on hard or soft cock real time. Hard real time can just be measured/counted.
When using soft real time, you can just give time slices to each task and fire an interrupt if they exceed the time and then handle that error.
There are really tons of ways to do it

>>109959756
I meant more compute time, not memory capacity. are people really running soft real time systems on a real time core?

It’s really not complicated. The “tool” removes, or at the least, greatly diminishes the creative process. The time you spent painstakingly honing the craft becomes wasted when a crayon eater can write a prompt. All of the reward incentives are removed whether you use the new “tool” or not and it isn’t fun anymore. The next thing to happen is the medium will be completely devalued until no one cares anymore and it will stagnate and die. All creative human endeavors will become pointless and we will undergo an existential crisis over the meaning of human life.

So, the purpose of the thing was the exclusivity of the thing? Not sure I follow.

How?

>The next thing to happen is the medium will be completely devalued until no one cares anymore and it will stagnate and die.
Or, alternatively, more people will play with it, because the barrier to entry is lowered and there are now powertools for it.

COBOL is mainly used to maintain large, reliable legacy systems, especially for:

Banking and payment processing
Government benefits and tax systems
Insurance and healthcare records
Payroll, billing, and other high-volume business transactions
Mainframe batch processing

It’s still common because these systems are stable, handle huge transaction volumes, and are expensive and risky to replace.

When I log in, light dm's process (lightdm --session-child) sometimes deadlocks while exiting, because the SIGTERM handler calls exit() instead of _exit() which apparently isn't """safe""". so light dm waits for the process before starting the desktop and you see black screen for ages.

I look online every month for a fix and it's still an open bug

I would have to rebuilt lightdm with _exit(). Same problem happens with gdm btw

If you can't compete with "low-effort trash", then what makes you think you would be successful if AI didn't exist? Low-effort trash predates AI. If you're getting mogged by low-effort trash, maybe you just suck at whatever it is you're doing and AI is immaterial to that?

You still have that opportunity, and you can still admire others and aspire to be better. The existence of AI doesn't prevent this.

>There is no "rising" for humans if AI can imitate anything we could. Because neural nets roughly model the human brain, we're running out of things we can do that machines can't. Most of our advantage now lies in motor skills.
Are you also upset that mechanized factories are better at assembling cars than a human artisan would be if he tried to assemble a car by hand?

Human effort has no inherent value and you accept this everywhere but AI. I don't see you crying about how mechanized agriculture produces more food faster than peasants working a plot of land with hand tools. The peasants were definitely making much more human effort. Technology always reduces human effort, and it is always a good thing because drudgery is a waste of life.

You didn't actually address the argument. Do you want to return to the land and grow food with hand tools? That would require much more human effort than mechanized farming. Would toiling away in a field by hand and consequently producing less food with much more labor have greater value than doing the same thing better and faster with with a tractor?

How is AI materially different, other than that it automates labor you care about?

These are kinda two very different things.
Food is a necessity, and having it in abundance allows us to pursue other things, to put our labor into things that are a luxury instead.

A factory like you described automates physical labour, which is good; artificial strength increases our leverage on the world and brings higher living standards. It does not replace humans, because it is our capable brain which separates us from animals.
AI automates intellectual and creative work. By automating intelligence, it reduces people to animals.
Animals don't write books.
Animals don't create music.
Animals don't do science.
Intellectual work should be left to humans and only humans. It is how we assert our dominance over the world. An entity that thinks for us, dominates us.

I just turned 40. Bought my first house, my wife announced she's divorcing me in order to get a free house. Shes sleeping with other guys and has never worked a full time job. We have three kids.
I explained everything to my management and they laid me off with a great 1 year pay severance package including tuition anywhere.
I really want to do a 2 year game programming course at college - focused on C++ and C#. I actually signed up for a 1 year carpentry course that teaches how to build houses.
I can still switch. I just don't know, its such a gamble. I am doing Javascript in free code camp and I really think I just want to program games, but with carpentry I could theoretically build decks for cash on weekends if I had tools and a car still.
I may end up just a guy renting a room and only owning a laptop. I will not do accounting again it makes me want to die. I wanna program games ... or build my own one room shack to live in.
What do you guys think? Should I stick to carpentry and do coding as a hobby? Or can I just dive into coding and be a hermit? My lawyer says I will have to pay this leech 60% of my after tax income and payments wont stop for 16-20 years.

My piece of advice, feel free to take it or disregard it:
Making money coding is already kind of tough. With the growth of LLMs it continues to get tougher.
The general direction things are going is:
Back in the day you needed two types of engineers. Those who design the system and then the grunts who do the implementation. This is similar in many fields (e.g. EE). At first that grunt work was done by juniors, or lower paid employees. Then we all started outsourcing it to india and other cheap countries. Now LLMs appeared and replace the indian worker with agents. What prevails and what still is valued, is the designer/engineer, not the guy doing the implementing. So if you want to code as a job, you want to learn a good theoretical foundation (especially the maths part) and be good at software engineering. Just "I know how to implement an algorithm in a language" is going to be useless, that's gonna be done by agents.
So if you want to learn it as a job, you NEED to learn the foundations, the theory, and the engineering part. You learn the code monkey stuff (e.g. a 2 year programming course) to be able to understand the code, not to do that as if that was a trade.
If you want to do game programming, realize beforehand that while very fulfilling, many indies don't make any or little money. I'm not saying don't do it: I'm saying do it, but don't make it the basis for your entire income and existence. Do it on the side and if you're good enough to make enough to live off, then keep going. A few smaller games are better than the one giga game you always dreamt of too.
Games courses are more arts courses than engineering/coding courses, so if you're confident in your art/direction skills (or your ability to acquire them), I'd say a more technical course might be better.
Also don't forget to be a good dad to your kids, that matters more than all of the other shit.
And, if the divorce isn't finalized yet, lawyer the fuck up with your severance pay.
Godspeed.

It is only a matter of time before AI automates this too. In fact it pretty much already is.

Arcades were a shitty fad designed to suck quarters out of you, objectively worse than lootboxes even

The genie is already out of the bottle so to speak. All of the necessary algorithms are already available in binary form and can be decompiled. Any new algorithms or systems that will be developed, will be done so using AI, which means that they can just as easily be copied even if they are locked behind a cloud server. The value of code itself will continue to diminish which is why you see data centers being the next big thing, as in the future the amount of compute you have at your disposal will be the only source of digital value that matters.

>>109971596
I don’t think they would be the traditional kind of arcades. They would be more like lan parties in practice.
>>
>>109971580
>I can unironically see a resurgence of arcades in the future
I would love to think that but let's be honest, that's not happening. Arcades have big overhead costs (land, maintenance, machinery) and the average person refuses to go outside for anything.
Probably what happens instead is more google strava type shit, or autocad stuff, where you have to stream a game as a video stream from a server farm, or the important calculations e.g. aerodynamics/load distributions happen serverside and you have to subscribe to that to use the software in any meaningful way.
It's the only thing that ensures your code is safe if decompilation and modding become trivial.
>Actually, the only way to escape any of this is to physically meet with people in general and literally touch grass
Yeah I was thinking from the position of a service provider/creator. As a person that already is the move, move away from the big online stuff and towards smaller local things. For me that's makerspaces/hackerspaces. Chill, hang out, relax, have a beer and build something together.
>and we go back to a quasi pre-internet era where people actually talk to eachother again
Haha...ha...ha. We've peeked inside pandoras box anon. I may be able to save myself and I may be able to save a few loved ones, but neither me nor you will fix this on a societal level. Strap in, we can't get off mr bones wild ride.

>and the average person refuses to go outside for anything.
I’m telling you, I really think that might change for real. There is no way to have a communal experience online anymore. The open internet of sharing information is dying. People, especially snailcats, will seek eachother out to run from the hellscape.
>>
>>109971595
I get where you're coming from, but I don't think so. More and more of it will be agent automated, especially the formulaic part (there's no reason e.g. a logical proof or a basic software engineering paradigm can't be agent automated), but I think it'll take a long time before the entire field is automated and once it is, we're in some post-scarcity world where the same applies to other fields too and we either have revolution or UBI or some shit.
For now, it's still tard wrangling. Now the tard is just an agent not some guy in delhi. I think we'll want humans in the loop still for oversight and, more importantly, accountability reasons. Maybe that's my partial background in management speaking.
>>109971609
Hm maybe you're right, I might not have been thinking big enough. Your argument was "behind the cloud you can obfuscate the code and only expose an API" but your counter would be "You won't need access to the code once almost all algorithms are reproducable by an LLM anyways. So while I may not go "analyze autocad's aero calculations please" in the future, I may be able to say "make me an aero calculation tool similar to autocad's implementation" and it'd make it out of thin air, because there's only so many ways you can do that and their stuff is likely to be LLM made too eventually. Interesting thought to consider.
>>
>>109971630
I can't meaningfully convey how much I wish you were right. I'm doing my part in building and supporting local infrastructure for such stuff, but so far I don't see it happening (and I'm in europe, so realistically we have it less bad than many other places so far, at least our cafes and shit still work really well. People still go outside here, they just don't go to third places or socialize with new people, it's usually just maintaining social connections instead of making new ones).
>There is no way to have a communal experience online anymore.
I've partially come to terms with that, sad as it is. Big sites have no community these days and sites that have community stay small, are dismissed as "slow" or "boring" and die out. It is what it is.

Never heard that term. Is that a new filter or what the fuck are snailcats?

We’re only at like day 3 of the end of everything. Give it a few years for the dread to truly set in for those who have not thought through the social consequences.

>>109971681
>the end of everything
Meh, we'll see.My comment about "if this happens there will be revolution" isn't some slopulism "le epic socialism is coming" take, I genuinely believe that if we can automate essentially all knowledge work, and increasingly most non-knowledge work (with the way robotics has been developing), then the traditional concept of work becomes economically unviable. With a large part of society unhappy something will have to give, either societal reform similar (but more disruptive) than the reformation of work during the industrial revolution where we re-think what working is, or some UBI thing where we eventually become the fat people from that wall-e movie and vegetate around all day (but even more dystopian than that).
>are you being serious right now?
I am. I'm old and haven't been on /g/ much in the last 2 years, I mostly frequent /diy/, /out/ and such. So if it's some modern thing I might have missed it. If it's an oldfag thing I either don't remember it or never noticed it. I am aware of those image edits of cats with snail shells you sometimes see if you mean that, I just don't really know if you're gesturing towards some larger concept related to that, or if it's just a way to say /g/entoomen
>>
>>109971722
I don’t know, dude. They might just decide to kill us all instead of giving us UBI. The whole point of investing in AI was to replace people in the first place so they lose all leverage.

And snailcats are programmers who refuse to use LLMs because it removes the creative process, or because it’s unethical, unfun, the output is low quality, etc. The term can broadly be applied to anyone who feels that way about proompting in any craft though.
>>
>>109971747
>They might just decide to kill us all instead of giving us UBI
Remember: These people are almost always not "evil" in the ontological sense, but evil in the opportunistic self-serving sense. Killing us all would be counterproductive to those goals.
That doesn't mean that the fate that might in stock for us necessarily will be better than being killed though lmao.
I'm very "banality of evil" pilled on all this stuff.
>And snailcats are programmers who refuse to use LLMs because it removes the creative process, or because it’s unethical, unfun, the output is low quality, etc. The term can broadly be applied to anyone who feels that way about proompting in any craft though.
Thanks for explaining anon. As I said I haven't used /g/ much since LLMs went from a curiosity to the topic of everything. Last I remember being /here/ was when those characterai threads started popping up and they had that big fight with the filters against erotic content on that site.

>These people are almost always not "evil" in the ontological sense
No, some of these people are literal satanists who want to replace God with a machine, and we just lived through covid and anthropic has already set up one biolab with AI accelerated research that they won’t disclose the reason for and multiple governments are probably already also doing the same thing as well as finding a million other ways to make weapons out of it. But whether this is gain of function or the creation of synthetic life, we don’t know. Either case is scary. The same company is also simultaneously butthurt that the Pope won’t say their AI could be conscious. Now why would they care about something like that? Why would they want it to be a conscious entity instead of just a probabilistic model? And given the track record of humanity, when have good things ever really happened?

I'm not nearly as deep down the conspiracy hole as you, so unfortunately I can't follow you in your reasoning anon.
But I do agree with the
>who want to replace God with a machine
Now, I don't personally believe in God, but I do believe that some people at those frontier labs do believe what they are building is essentially a deity, if not in form then in function and it'd be foolish not to see the risks that brings, that's all fair. Even then the motivation isn't "hail satan, I want to ruin humanity" it's a shortsighted, foolish view of "this technology allows for a transhumanist future and I can be the one to shape the future of the species".
Anyways, all of that is only tangentially related to tech, and is far more philosophy so it's not really the right board for that discussion, so let's leave it at that.
>when have good things ever really happened?
If you genuinely believe that, I wish you can someday overcome the doomer mindset. Humanity has improved so much, in fact once you zoom out enough basically all the time, just with temporary setbacks.
We used to subsistence farm and die of dysentery at the ripe old age of 30 man. Things have been getting much better even if lately it may not always feel that way.

I have not been doing this for long now, but on some days it's hard to get started.
But having an actual templeOS machine rather than just QEMU makes me so much more productive when I am in front of it.

Sadly the old 60 degree tilted keyboard trick of the old lan party days doesn't work with laptops because you need the screen.
Maybe 3d print a small extension bracket for the table to give you more space if you have a printer.
For true old feels the keyboard should be on its own tray underneath the table that you can pull out. You can probably still (though its getting rarer) find those kinds of desks on craigslist for free as long as you pick it up yourself by car.

I did order a second monitor for 20 bucks ( >>109963712 ) because I was thinking about attaching a raspi to it.
That would be used for testing all the serial connection stuff I am playing with and maybe it can be used to look up some reference sheets or man pages.
I only have a raspi 3b+ and no fucking idea if it can even run a browser nowadays lmao. But I'll try it. That could work
>>
>>109972267
Unfortunately that browser has 2010s aero aesthetic, I'm "cream colored faded white plastic" pilled.
For the practical use pi 3B+ is perfectly fine. Don't go on JS heavy sites or like some treejs stuff, but for documentation it should suffice. Just try to keep any software on it lightweight but people act like anything short of a mini pc is e-trash, when you can browse even on a zero just fine for lightweight stuff.

Yeah it'll be a big upgrade from that. Pi 3 will do perfectly fine for documentation. Maybe consider adding a heatsink to the CPU if that's an issue, mine starts to thermal throttle pretty quickly on medium workloads.

Jokes aside, I hope it works out. Seems like a fun side project.

Is it considered cheating if I'm too lazy to read the documentation and choose instead to ask AI which functions will help me accomplish what and other clarifying questions?

>>109972693
Is it a bad practice?
>>
>>109972704
It probably doesn't help you learn?
>>
>>109972704
Kind of.
Studies show that recall of LLM promoted questions is substantially shittier than if you do it the old way, so you are fostering a dependence, you're likely to always have to ask over and over rather than actually learn.
If you're comfortable with that dependence/accept it and/or the documentation is for some software you don't plan to master but just interface with a few times, it's probably fine.
My take is that AI for work is fine, AI to learn is literal cancer. So decide what your goal is and judge based on that.
