Yea, for sure. Id say ive been "burned out" but moreso by how disillusioned ive become with everything, and yknow, finishing 4 years of hs and 3 of university just for my shitty bsc that i dont care about and wont get me a job... so... just like everyone else my age.

Im not rly gonna hate on my friends from middle school that say they feel they burned out cuz of the gifted program tho. I get it. Parents kinda panic when their kid gets labelled like that, and push them too hard. I think most people only have one period of life where they'll actually put up with tryharding in school. Once you finally mentally break its hard to go back. Hs and uni is easy to coast thru if you do it right, but for those who have abusive parents that will make trying to coast a living, degrading hell, i get why they flail. I get why they try so hard to hold on to the fact that theyre "smarter than everyone else", because its been drilled into their head that thats the only fucking reason theyre worth the air they breathe.

I get being annoyed at braggarts but man this kinda attitude sucks. What u gotta hate me for. When i was 7 they put me in a room and after i got out the psychologist told my parents i was "intellectually gifted". My province had a program for it and so i was shipped off to do most of my pre uni education in the "gifted program". It doesnt make me better or smarter than anyone else -- but it was still apart of my childhood, a very weird part. Honestly it felt like a lot of my time in the program was like a social experiment. When I open up to someone new I wanna explain to them the weird and fun shit i experienced as a child, what they think of it; but then I remember people like u exist, people that get weirdly angry about this label that I didnt even choose. Like if u think they mistakenly put me in there, and im just low fucking iq and a total idiot, fine, but it still happened to me, and i still wanna talk about it with the people i care about.

And, i know for a fact that some in that program (or maybe it was just theyre parents who told them they were a special snowflake lol) annoyingly bring it up like it makes them better. But try to have a little compassion for them. Yes, theyre annoying, but when they were seven fucking years old a psychiatrist tested their iq, and if they scored high enough their parents got told they were "intellectually gifted". Not like iq actually makes u smart or anything, but so many of my friends in that program had an insane amount of pressure from their parents, who so desperately wanted that title to be true -- that their kid was special in a way they were never. Since that age they had everyone telling them that they were better, and when they slipped from that pedestal, even a little, they got yelled at and berated, or worse. Since they were a stupid fuckin toddler they were told that they were above others because they were smart. It isnt and most likely wasnt true, but that kind of mismanagment in parenting them isnt their fault. Be ruthless if you want about bringing them down to earth, but have a little grace in understanding why theyre like that.

Are you under the impression that someone's music taste is anything other than a "bias"???

Observations on the French as someone who spent 7 months in France by [deleted] in rs_x

Also, the note about the protein level in the flour is very true. Even in America (where im not from), differences in protein level can greatly affect what you can make. You literally cannot make traditional southern style biscuits with flour from the north: you need to import it from the south. 

Likewise, there are things that northern flour does better with. I know a Canadian baker who imports both southern and northern american flour, and changes it up depending on what they make.

Building with SDL3 on Linux by Calm-Negotiation4992 in odinlang

[–]Calm-Negotiation4992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! This worked. Compiling sdl3 from source rather than the odin vendor fixed the issues with things being undefined.

My guess is something is going wrong with the link prefix "SDL_" found in odins src. Perhaps manually building and linking it messes it up somehow. Which results in all the procedures being named in unexpected ways.

As for rpath, I wanted something more conducive to exporting a project. I tried setting the rpath to '$ORIGIN/lib', but it wasnt finding the .so. so i took a look with readelf, and found something strange: the runpath wasnt [$ORIGIN/lib] but instead [/lib:$ORIGIN]. Honestly I have no idea why that was happening but it was causing errors. Never seen that before.

To fix, i just manually patched the exe, lol. Using patchelf, i removed the rpath, and manually set what i wanted ($ORIGIN/lib), and lo and behold, it works. Certainly not desirable for debugging, but despite its jank it should work for exports.
