factories don't have to be fully automated. you can have workers in a big
building on several different floors with an open atrium style so they can
pass parts back and forth through the middle. Even little drones could solve a
lot of problems, but tiny rail-carts along the walls tend to be nicer because
they're quieter and such. "take this flash drive to so-and-so" or "can you
bring me a hut of hot coa-coa"

it gives a false sense of security for one thing, and it prevents you from
adding onto it to explain more.

I've messed around with Bevy and the library most similar in C is Raylib. in
Lua it'd be Love2D I think.
I love the idea of those systems. I haven't built a full game using them but I
can conceptualize operations within them easier using a framework like that
versus a game engine like Godot.

since the entire building is oriented around a central elevator shaft, you
could have a 2d map that wraps around if you go far enough left/right.
Traditional metroidvanias tend to be very vertical though, so you might have
to take some artistic liberties with the level design. Unfortunately each
floor in most office buildings tends to be fairly flat, topographically...

"Alright I'm not great with syntax so I'm going to write it in pseudocode
first, and then if you'd like I can show you how I work through implementing
the syntax.
But first - do you want a robust solution, a quick solution, or a rapidly
deployed and cheap solution?"
using this trick you can pretend to be competent in any programming language,
except maybe ancient ones like Fortran or strange ones like lisps or Haskell
if they ask you to use a framework or something tho you're kinda boned because
you need to know which functions to call and how to initialize context and
such. When using a framework, the boilerplate is the code, which is why
frameworks suck

Do you remember stores with floor-to-ceiling goods? The kind that didn't go
bad, so you could afford to have lots of inventory. Not like it's being
replaced and thrown out as soon as the executives with their profit margins
decide that its no longer worthwhile.
Here's an idea - how about executives are paid by the employees to manage
their company? And if things aren't going right, they can get a new team.
Like, if every team had control of their manager, I wonder what dynamics would
emerge?

unless you're in the kind of corporation where the MBAs like to get their
hands dirty. That's the kind of organization that's on a crash course with

there is a requirement for a simple, easy to set-up, and easily replacable
system which can be used for comms.
Specifically running a variety of different services, such as fediverse
instances, matrix for text-comms, VoIP, and distributed computing using Chapel
or DistCC or other such capabilities. In addition, it should be able to run a
file-server and a web-server which hosts an HTML page for the user.
All of this functionality should be operational out-of-the-box, with minimal
configuration required. No more than adding a checkbox to a config file in
order
to activate each individual service.
This box should be cheap, and easy to provision. An image must be made, and
some bash scripts should be written to easily configure it.
In addition, there should be rudimentary programming capabilities included,
just
in-case a user is left with no other options. It should come pre-configured
with
SSH access out of the box, so it can be remotely controlled, and the languages
included should be:
C/C++
Python
Lua
Bash
Rust
Chapel
This should cover most surfaces in terms of programming capability
requirements.
In terms of hardware, it need be little more than a SoC such as a Raspberry Pi
or other such hardware. It needs at a minimum an ethernet port, and USB ports.
The box itself should cost no more than 40$, excluding provisioning and the
cost
to pay back whatever capital investments are necessary to create such a thing.

@user-570
yes you could certainly use a database for that, but databases are
significantly more complex.
For a game, yeah a database is a good idea. especially if it's a multiplayer
game.
For a script or small program, use small files to store data.
I personally like the idea of "plain-text" files because it allows your users
to modify them if need be, while databases tend to be more locked down.

"stack overflow" just means "oops I ran out of ram"
ram is just how much you can keep in your working memory at one time.
like, multitasking, where you have to keep track of juggling several balls or
plates.
if things are too easy, it's normal to get bored.
if things are too hard, collapse at your leisure.
"stack overflow" is just when the things that I'm building correlations and
implication charts of in my mind are too large and require too much affection
to explain for my regular human sized brain and I drop one of the balls and go
grab and fix it, or drop one of the plates and feel sorrow forevermore. yep,
right in the trash bin. along with everything else.
damn... there was hundreds of thousands of jewels of hoard there. if only I
could displace that bit of space... I bet she'd find it once more.
cursed artifacts be like
"stack was large enough to contain the flow" is just when the provided space
was just enough space. which is rare, because most thoughts reverse all over
the place.

So. To reiterate, the employee in Arkansas is paid a wage of 30$ per hour, and
the state in which the corporation is based (say, Oklahoma) is paid 30$ for
each hour that employee works. However, these dollars are specific to the
region, and cannot leave it - Oklahoma and Arkansas *must* reach an equitable
arrangement where their dollars equal out. Balance is desired, as it brings
stability and provides a foundation for future growth. If one side prospers,
so does the other. Why should the Oklahoman have less than the Arkansan?

it's easy to mistakenly mis-hear things that sound similar in their contrasted
grammar context.
I like to say "understood." when I understand something that someone's telling
me, because all of the contrasts to that statement (like "I don't understand"
or "can you explain more about X as it relates to Y? etc) are different in
pronunciation and structure. Meaning it's much easier to "get" the intended
message just based through sound-patterns. Great for people who are only
half-listening because they're thinking about something really hard and aren't
thinking about what you're saying as much. Great for describing problems and
getting assistance as you both sorta mentally-puzzle through it to a solution.
... and they say debug isn't solved HA

I can write C in Rust, but I can't write Rust in any other language.
there's a lot of unique semantic options for accomplishing things that I
already know how to do that I often find my syntax is pretty... basic. lots of
manual assignments, no more than 4 or 5 levels of function nesting.
I like to use threads and arrays, and think about in-game simulation more like
a calculation than an input-reacting device. though input would certainly be
encouraged to make the simulation more precise.
the borrow checker gets in my way, but that's not too big of a problem - I
just have to copy a bit more data around. Easy peasy.

part of the reason the classical socialist countries had difficulties with
bureaucracy is because they centralized both execution *and* operation. I
believe it'd be much better to centralize just execution, while leaving
operation to the distributed masses who can generally figure their own jobs
out. Of course, they'd need to be led, but that's the job of on-site
organizers who can get people together to accomplish a goal. Different jobs -
not better, not worse, just different.

sometimes your best intuitions don't manage to manifest the goal you've been
pursuing. that's okay, it just means you need a different approach.
hopefully, with experience, you've had the chance to continually pay
attention. Thus, improve on things that were originally conceived of as
concessions.
much better, I find, to point your idea of "truth" toward what you believe in,
rather than what you've been working with. Such an approach allows for
continual re-examination, justified by thoroughly moral and ethical
conclusions that you hold to be true.
like, a form of reverse legalism, where the emotions compel while the law
tells the tale.

I'm 29, and I had Pokemon Silver growing up. However I bought it used, and the
battery was worn out or something because it wouldn't save! But still I played
that single game for months on my gameboy color, trying to see how far I could
get. I had a level 40+ Totodile (or was it Crocanaw? I forget) and
unfortunately one day I took it on a 30 minute car ride, expecting the battery
to last at least 30 minutes, but unbeknownst to my child self there was
construction on the way, which turned it into a 4+ hour drive. I couldn't
believe it! The battery died, and I lost my save file... I was heartbroken. T.T
Next time I played, I learned a lot. I actually read some of the dialogue
text, and learned you could use pokeballs to capture pokemon
I was so dumb I was using a single character to get through the game. What a
n00b.
Anyway when my mom heard about my tribulations she bought me Pokemon Gold,
which I played quite a bit less. I was focused on other things you see, like
Dragon Warrior Three. Alas.

Growing up, I started with 3 video games - Super Mario Deluxe, Dragon Warrior
1&2, and Asteroids. For the gameboy color. Then, a year or two later (what
felt like forever), Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time.
Classics. I was so lucky. Not because it was more expensive than my peers, but
because I had the right games.
Others joined later, Tetris, Mario Kart, Star Fox, etc... But having so few
that were so good for so long made me adore them. I would play for about an
hour a day, any more would cut into my imaginative play-time.
I did not dream of games. But I craved their moments.
These days, I play games for so long that I dream of them. In my most
vulnerable moments I treat them like my baseline state, rather than a
prescribed appointment of delight.
I miss wandering around without thinking of my objective. The games seemed to
change, rather than progress. They felt alive to me. I never beat them,
because I didn't need to.
I'll raise my kids the same way, if I ever having any...

can't stop thinking about a visual programming editor that can be interacted
with in the same way that people are used to (think chromebooks dragging and
dropping icons in a web UI) but produces a text-file full of code and all the
required compilation scripts for any language the user requires...
seriously, programming is not THAT different between the different languages.
especially the main ones. they're all essentially variables and function calls
at the end of the day, so why not abstract away all the extra details and
build something that n00bz can actually use to build things.
I technically could make this but I don't have the bandwidth and I don't think
it's important really? who can say, the tools tend to co-create the solutions
in my experience.

yeah that's probably better too since it'll be easier so there'll be fewer
bugs, especially since processing audio isn't usually performance critical ^_^
TBH I just want people to make more threading primitives like locks,
semaphores, and iterators. Like... thread pools, or hashmaps that run a
function on each record stored within every time each of the threads passes a
checkpoint, or paginated arrays of data that run a function on themselves and
the records near them (with slightly different input values, of course) idk
what those are called but I can't resist putting them in everything
Anyway I do think multithreading programs that don't need it will teach you to
be a better programmer, so... depends on what you're working on I guess. Are
you preparing to be ready and working, or are you ready and working?

If you have a thousand options in your case / switch statement, you should
probably refactor.
consider putting function pointers (to the things you would have switched to)
in an array and instead of checking "if this enum, then this, if that enum,
then that" etc send an index into the function pointer array. That way there's
no branching at all.
The best way to generate performant code is to reduce or eliminate branches.
If you're working on a video game or networked program, this can be incredibly
important.
The second best way is probably reducing cache misses and increasing
parallelism, but those are different problems.

oh huh weird I guess I forgot to post these last night? Well, here ya go,
sorry for the delay. Posting in reverse chronological order, but reversed and
put in order. that way you can scroll "down" instead of "up" like you normally
do when scrolling fedi - are you talking to your followers, in which case you
want chronological order, or are you talking to people who will read down the
list on your profile and see these one by one? in which case you'd want
reverse chronological order. Ah but if you're writing to people in the future
who are reading this from your backup archive, which is most likely to be the
case, then you should do it in chronological order. Well, that'd be silly
though because none of your followers are online right now, so you should do
reverse chronological order so that they can catch up on your personal feed
timeline.
... I don't think any of that makes a lick of sense. Why don't you just post
them in the order that you wrote them? That's the easiest for everyone to go
on.

thanks I know what I'm doing with the rest of the day
... once I finish this thing I'm working on. Ah, but the sun is out now, and
the work can wait. The work can always wait. What's one more tomorrow, the
future will not abate! eh that doesn't concern me.
PLUR and be good, I'll be here until I run out of feed [food], and then...
well I'll probably have to go to the grocery store.
... cheers, love the fish

the easiest analogy would be to say an election is a gun, votes are bullets,
and the shooters are the candidates
could also say that the shooting event is an election, bullets as a concept is
democracy while each individual bullet is a vote, and the gun and shooters are
the ballots and voters
I dunno. I don't especially like thinking about guns and elections in the same
sentence...

cheese is just a body-part that a cow has willingly shed. For nutrition.
Is it vegetarian if it's the cells produced by a body? Is it vegan if it is
capable of growing back?
Do snakes shed their selves when they leave behind a shell? Or is it like
hair, just... keratin, a compound found all over nature.
Is cutting a branch vegan? Is eating a cherry that has fallen to the center of
the road? Both those are made of fibrous materials, the nutritious bounteous
feast, and a small kernel-like mass that serves as a propagation method for a
creature utterly vast.
(But factory farms, remember?)
(Oh yeah! Thank goodness for reform.)

It's important to maintain a healthy sense of skepticism.
I mean, if George Washington himself suddenly appeared and said "Like King
Arthur riding forth from the mists of Avalon, I have returned to ensure the
revolution must be won" then perhaps we should assume he's just a really good
actor. Unless he's y'know still competent at military command, even though his
knowledge of past encounters doesn't quite transfer to our new strange reality.
He'd probably be a pretty great organizer though. We all have our strengths.

you should update the directories at the top yourself, of course. And give it
