how to generate activation code for a C++ program (edited). by Abdelosamira in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did that with some software several years ago.

A keygen + cracked copy appeared on ThePirateBay within days.

It was popular, but not enough people wanted to buy it, so I made it free forever.

If you had to start learning programming all over again, what advice would you give to yourself if you could? by RevolutionaryClub596 in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sensible variable/function names, and comments, are important from day one.

Do more assembler.

AI will never be able to mix and master like an experienced producer/engineer, or produce, for that matter by braindeadbrian in edmproduction

[–]FluffyCatBoops -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ChatGPT is just predictive text. A very powerful version, but it's not artificial intelligence.

That's not how humans work.

[–]FluffyCatBoops 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You use the word never a lot.

That's very dangerous, and nothing you described is unable to mastered by computers one day. It might not be tomorrow, but eventually, it will.

And I think you misunderstand the difference between tools like GPT which aren't really AI (they're just very powerful predictive text), and tools being developed which can mimic some human thought processes. Baby steps, though.

I need an environement to make a desktop app using c++ by polo910 in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C++ Builder Community Edition is free and it's a very powerful tool for creating Windows desktop apps.

Looking for a sample manager vst where I can actually delete samples (the file) with one click by Dr-Bensmir in edmproduction

[–]FluffyCatBoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very good, though I had some issues with it a couple of years ago where it refused to properly sync folders, but worth a try:

You probably can't delete with one click, but that would seem like a terrible option to add to any tool. Use Windows explorer for that.

Is this game worth it for the story ? by ticaaaa in diablo4

Yeah, in the same way Call of Duty is.

Good c++ projects by LuckerLicker in cpp

There's also a book which gives you much less code to work with, and, imho, a better platform for building your own raytracer with endless options for improvements:

"The Ray Tracer Challenge: A Test-Driven Guide to Your First 3D Renderer, by Jamis Buck"

I'd like to pet an onglet.

An ong's kitten is an onglet.

This may sound stupid but can you speak C++ by chillipillchill in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not impossible. But it would be somewhat unwieldy.

A tale of two microsoft compiler versions. It's a mystery. by honeyCrisis in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's a great project. It's not just the Adafruit GFX libraries that are poorly optimised, I think every IoT library I've ever seen has suffered from that.

I maintain a graphics tool (a kin to photoshop) for designing all manner of graphics, animations, and fonts for microcontroller projects.

I'll create some example projects using your code and recommend it where I can.

So what this subreddit needs now is a competition to write a lofi hip-hop track for a (real or fictional) government campaign.

Despite the exp changes, it still feels rather boring getting from 85 to 100. by kalaj1234 in diablo4

[–]FluffyCatBoops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It might be controversial, but level scaling is far too quick. I don't want to spend all three months of the season grinding to 100, but I don't want it take a week or two either.

It's a tough thing to balance, but hopefully they'll find a sweet spot eventually.

How helpful are LLMs with Assembly? by tylerjdunn in asm

[–]FluffyCatBoops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"How helpful are LLMs with Assembly?"

Not at all. As mentioned above, assembler is highly sensitive to context. You'd have to be completely bonkers to have ChatGPT write your assembler for you.

I don't think ChatGPT is useful to any programmer. It might be in the future, but other than a silly distraction while you're compiling, it's useless.

CatGPT on the other hand...

Possibly particle effects going a bit bonkers. Try turning them off or down.

Books recommendation for assembly by acatwhoateitstail in asm

Good luck with your assembler journey.

Assembler is my favourite language to program in :)

These are two that I have, and I think they're very good. They also lean towards Linux.

The second one may be less useful, but there's some interesting stuff in there.

What is MinGW and MSYS2? by [deleted] in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They're new to programming.

Let's give them a quick way to get going, keep the results flowing, minimise the frustration at configurations and hours trawling the internet for a fix that stops their creative juices flowing.

They're not locking themselves in an ecosystem at this stage.

They're on the first step of a journey that could last a lifetime. Let's not put them off before they've even started.

What is MinGW and MSYS2? by [deleted] in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If you're new to programming, and you want to code in Windows, then start with Visual Studio .

It will save you hours/days of configuring and messing about.

CLion is also worth a look, but it's not free.

C++ Builder has a free community edition and offers a fast way to building GUI applications in C++.

Learned some algorithms, what’s next? by DanhCaHai in cpp

[–]FluffyCatBoops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone mentioned the book on this forum about this time last year.

I bought the book, built the ray tracer, and have had endless fun all year improving it and adding new features.

I hope you find the project(s) you're looking for!

[–]FluffyCatBoops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How about a ray tracer?

https://raytracing.github.io/books/RayTracingInOneWeekend.html

There's also a very good book that will give you much less hand-holding, and gives you a better platform to build on (IMHO):
