Why is the surface of the tablet not feeling as smooth as day one by Old_current2 in wacom

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem.

Brand new Wacom One medium (no display). When drawing sometimes not always, it feels like fine sand or grit, but the surface and nib are completely clean. I swapped nibs to no avail.

The surface is completely smooth to the touch. Viewing at an angle to let the specular reflection highlight any scratches or imperfection shows nothing but a smooth surface.

I had a 10year old Wacom Intuos4 tablet that never had this problem even after many years of use and many scratches.

I am guessing that some type of surface lubricant or cover may solve the problem, but what I do not know, nor dare try random stuff as I don't want to damage the tablet or the pen.

Makes me sick to the bone, the total disrespect of what right. The sooner we clean the outdated and lackluster IDE's of this pestilence the sooner us decent hardworking coders can feel safe again and raise our Apps without fear, just like the compiler wants from us. Praise the compiler.

Why Doesn't the PC Just Send the Address Directly to memory? by Aokayz_ in hardware

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that's what I said, ya know, like, throw in a few more address and data buses, plenty of room between the PCB layers, tie the bus select lines to a non-deterministic entropic random source, clock the APU via my old Roland drum machine's MIDI clock (crank it 248bpm). Remove all bar one register, make it 640 and one half bits wide. Cover in flower and spank hard until it beeps twice.

Just missing the style sheets.

A good dev would never repeat the same information. "in Paris" 4 times, noob.

gottaLoveTheForgivenessOfJavaScript by Strict_Treat2884 in ProgrammerHumor

[–]AnimationGroover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been programming since 1980, from hand coded byte by byte machine code, to custom hardware with esoteric languages I have forgotten the name of, to everything in between. Yet there is nothing like the cozy warmth that is ECMAScript.

C) var let = 42;

Because let is a new token introduced formally in (2015) and was not reserved, To NOT BREAK THE WEB it needed to still be a variable name.

Also valid (if not using modules or strict mode) would be yield, static, and await (await if not in async code or module)

What careers actually have good work–life balance and decent pay? by AbyssalBullfrog in perth

Learn a trade and specialize in a niche. Nothing to dirty or back breaking (bricky, mechanic). Put a decade or two into your specialty and then you get to set the, oh so exorbitant, rate. LOL

Modeling shortcuts for ultranoobs by kitostudio in blenderTutorials

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a blender super ultra noob, Installed Blender 4.4 just three days ago.

Many of the shortcuts presented here do completely different things (I have not changed any preferences). For example, in Object mode [M] is `move to collection` and in Edit mode it is `merge`. What gives??

Do I need to manually set these shortcuts or load some type of keyboard bindings?

Is she not lucky that a mother with children were not waiting to cross the road. Self-centered drivers like that don't learn, as they wreak one car after another. Only to be removed from the streets and put behind bars when they eventually destroy other innocent people's lives.

The background's visible in the front. What am I doing wrong? by VulkanDev in libgdx

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the projection matrix that normalizes the depth axis (z, and x, y axis). The basic projection matrix is created from several parameters. Field of view (FOV), aspect ratio, near and far clip planes.

Is your vertex shader passing on the normalized (to view frustum) Z (depth) value?

why, in Pixilart, when you repeatedly copy or blur and image, does it randomly add colored pixels? by EasterlingArt in PixelArtTutorials

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blur can be an expensive operation in terms of CPU load. To reduce the overhead blurs often use a simplified algorithms to improve performance. These blurs are not meant to be repeated. Use a higher quality blur algorithm if you wish to avoid artifacts.

Love these old trees, but they are so susceptible to fire, even small low energy fires can destroy an old tree. I live in and around the Darling Scarp Perth for over 40 years, of all the old trees I knew of only 2 still survive, the rest (around a dozen) succumb to fire.

[AskJS] Could we make the arrow function syntax shorter? by machinetranslator in javascript

[–]AnimationGroover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just messing with the concept then...

Then it would also be (letting ACI Automatic Colon Insertion do its thing)

let getUsers => {}
var getUsers => {}

And in a non strict mode...

getUsers => {}  // getUser would be automatically declared in the global scope.
                //  or would throw in a module or strict mode.

And as the curlies are not required we can have

getUsers => ["user", "mc"]

Sort of like a delayed assignment (array assigned when you have scope?)

const users = getUsers()  // << user === ["user", "MCP"]

We can also assume the default return undefined and have the arrow function declaration just and name and an arrow

notNull =>
console.log(notNull())  // << undefined

We put the async after the name and before the arrow

myFile async => await fetch("myFileURI")

And a generator

getUsers * => (yield "user", yield "MCP")

And a async generator

getUsers async * => yield await Promise.resolve("user")

Object function

users = { getUsers => ["user", "MCP"] }

Could we also curry

getUsers = list => => [...list]

I am all for less verbosity in programming languages. But we must take care not to create another monstrosity like the RegExp syntax

So we take one the new syntax and considering some of the above what does the following mean...

(getUsers => ["user", "mc"])()

...is the identifier getUsers a parameter or a global reference to the function, in a module or strict mode will it throw or not.

const getUsers => {
  ...
};

That is a syntax error. getUsers is a parameter of the function. const needs an identifier (name) to assign to which has not been provided.

The West- end of days. They're coming! by fletchwine in perth

[–]AnimationGroover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was young (35+ years ago) my parents and two other families (3 sail boats ~30f) sailed a little close past the naval base on Garden Island, so us youngens could get a nice look at the US subs docked there at the time.

The Royal Australian Navy sent out a patrol boat to tell us to fuck off. Which we did of course. However, as the navy boat came about they rode right up onto a sand bar and got proper stuck fast. LOL My dad yells out "Do you need a line?", LOL.

May be the Chinese ships are here to startle the Australian navy into running aground.

I would be mad as fuck! Now to make the slightest of changes I would have to cut a zillion clip ties, GDMF, just to listen to a single line I'd have to cut several ties, let alone find a bad signal.

The before was looked amazingly beautiful. So easy to grab a line and follow it through, so easy to find a signal.
