@user-883
you're right
but I think your first impulse should be to think about how to do it in a
multithreaded way
If the result is that single-threading would be better, great! It'll be easier!
But thinking about multithreading first will give you crucial insights into
the structure of the program.
depending on what kinds of programming you do...!

sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
image that could be edited.

functions should be forced to describe the context of why they were being
called. I think it would help debug a lot if we supplied a reasoning for each
and every request [function call] that we made. We might even be able to parse
them into semantic pyramids which we could sorta use to estimate [tree-like
scanning] how and why the program did do wrong.

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.

If you want to install something on Linux but you have difficulty, talk to me
and I'll write you a script like this. I might even make it fancier.
This one installs a programming language that is useful for parallel computing
across multiple clusters of computers which could be useful if you want to
leverage multiple CPUs and GPUs with ease to compute tasks which are far
beyond a normal computer.

the neat thing about BASH is that it's the glue that holds all your other code
together. Write libraries in C and call them with BASH - accomplish broader
tasks that are easier to co-create. That's why I like it - it's not the most
important, but it's quite beneficial I think _^

Hi, I'm learning about semaphores right now and trying to explain them to a

I don't understand why modern software isn't error correcting. We shouldn't
have any bugs in this day and age.
For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try
to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory
and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable!

I should conjure x11 from source. I bet they have a lot of useful utilitudes
that I can configure. I wonder if Gentoo can do it for me? nahhhhh I'll just
write my own script, it'll only take me like a couple hours per piece of
software

solicitation brings to my mind the idea of a person walking in the front door
and talking to the receptionist, and if that's what you tried then I'm not
surprised it didn't work.
But maybe if you knew someone higher up it might get a bit more traction?
Ideally for a place that already does workshops of some kind.

the things that I suggest we do when we hang out are not because those are the
things I most want to do, but rather because they are the things that I think
you'd want to do.

express their thoughts in a temporally contextual way. Presumably the previous

alright I'm in a "if you want me, come tell me" kind of mood, so if you want
me, come tell me.
in the meantime, I'm going to be working on making silly little desktop games
which do nothing and mean nothing and are not useful or valuable in any way.

my cat doesn't know that my family is my family. She thinks they're just some

but they're special to me, as all people are, and I think she takes notice.

Wikipedia would make a lot more sense to me if they included pictures next to
the names of every proper noun so that my pictorally oriented primate brain
might pattern match meaning onto the visual understandings gleaned from the
perceptual conceiving which were arrayed within and alongside the textual
information presented to me.
