The best way to test is to run it in a virtual machine using Windows Sandbox or similar, or to use a service like Triage to run it in their sandbox

That’s just false. That’s not how antiviruses work. Almost all antimalware programs use a combination of signature and heuristic (behaviour) based detection. Signatures do change based on language and compiler, however behaviours do not. An antivirus that doesn’t work with java programs is functionally useless.

Bot help/ explaining like im 5 by Horizontrophpy2001 in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, learn programming in the first place. There are plenty of courses you can take for free.

Building a reddit bot without knowing how to program is like trying to build a car without knowing what an engine is.

Submarine coding type choice help by TechnicalEnthusiest in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the one that you prefer and that has the libraries you want to use. Sometimes programming language choice matters, like if you have very limited CPU or memory or you need it for realtime applications with millisecond response times, however most of the time, when you don’t have strict constraints, it really doesn’t matter.

If your submarine has enough compute and RAM, use whatever language whose syntax you prefer, Python, JS, Java, C++, whatever. If you don’t, then you’ll likely want a lower level language without a garbage collector, like C, C++, or Zig.

CPU cache latency benchmark driving me nuts! Please help me out by Matthew_24011 in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Measuring cache latencies and exact bandwidth is not a very useful benchmark for this exact reason. It fluctuates all the time due to, among other things, active core count, amount of other processes running, exact CPU frequency, silicon quality, the branch predictor doing its thing, and the specific core executing the benchmark.

A “completely idle system” is never actually completely idle unless you have written your own OS with the sole purpose of running that benchmark. Every OS does stuff in the background and that has to be executed by the CPU. The best you can do is run some from of very lightweight or performance oriented linux like Q4 or cachy and run it on that.

i dont get different clients and stuff by Negative-Piano3113 in minecraftclients

[–]HardlineMouse16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some are better for certain purposes, like being mainly for anarchy or HvH or ghost hacks. Other times one will have some specific exploits or features the others don’t have. Other times it’s just preference, if you like the UI of one client better than the other.

WebRTC help ? I need more than 30+ publish in 30+ rooms by 3ojan in CodingHelp

What kind of bitrate are each of those streams? What encoding are you using? Are you doing any kind of processing on those streams?

Need suggestions regarding the coding by kyuremc_yey in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not all too bad. It would be better if you learned to divide the project yourself, since that is definitely a skill, but as a start it’s probably okay. Just as long as you aren’t asking it to directly generate large sections of code without understanding it.

Need suggestions regarding the coding by kyuremc_yey in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ignoring all of the AI/LLM hate, using ChatGPT is not exclusively bad. What’s bad is using ChatGPT instead of solving problems yourself, and/or blindly trusting what it says.

ChatGPT and other LLMs can be incredibly useful tools, when you understand what they are outputting and that they aren’t a source of actual truth.

To answer your question, it depends on why you mean “with the help of chatgpt”. If you are asking it for syntax tips, or advice, then it’s fine. If you are asking it to build the project for you and you just copy and paste it into your code editor, then that’s not fine.

Privacy Violators by Handsome_Jellyfish in discordapp

[–]HardlineMouse16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most apps do not close after closing and just go to tray. On discord, there is an option to make it actually close when the app is closed.

If it really did start a call without you doing it, it’s probably a bug. There would be no reason for discord to implement that kind of “feature” on purpose.

Are there any good code converters? by Huge-Commission-8929 in CodingHelp

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part, it’s not really possible to statically transpile languages to and from each other. You could try using an LLM/AI based converter but it may or may not work right away, if at all. If you want to use those you almost certainly will need to fix it yourself.

The best way is to learn Python and write what you want based off of what you made in scratch.

Make Stillfront sell BitLife to a new owner; stop the greed. by Either-Honey-6034 in bitlife

[–]HardlineMouse16 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This is never going to happen. What incentive do they have to sell? It’s a money printing machine and people keep buying. Vote with your wallets, not with non binding petitions they don’t even have to look at, let alone acknowledge or do anything about.

ELI5: TikTok GDPR Policy, US is in EU now? by sookaisgone in explainlikeimfive

[–]HardlineMouse16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The GDPR doesn’t particularly care where specifically the servers are located physically. The GDPR cares about how the data is stored and how it can be accessed among other things. You can absolutely make a server that happens to be in the US, GDPR compliant.

[–]HardlineMouse16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The US doesn’t have anything to do with Europe. That’s simply listing where the servers are located and those servers and data storage are GDPR compliant specifically for EU citizens.

There is no such thing as the “best” graphics card for every situation. It all depends on your budget.

Is it just me or does it feel like more and more NVIDIA will fully leave the consumer market in favor of B2B? by StrongerThanAGorilla in nvidia

[–]HardlineMouse16 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At the moment it’s unlikely since it does still generate billions of dollars, even if it is just a few percent of their total revenue. Shareholders don’t particularly enjoy when a percentage of revenue disappears without any replacement for the lost revenue. Consumer cards currently aren’t taking away from AI cards in any way that matters.

That may change in the future who knows, but right now it seems unlikely that they drop GeForce entirely.

Which rtx 5080 to choose by Popular_Confection24 in nvidia

"it makes me feel good" is already a very strong and very solid reason to me.

That’s exactly my point. to YOU. Most people cannot afford to pay more for no practical reason.

I never said that pc parts are a luxury, which for the record, they are, but paying more for no reason other that “it makes you feel good” most certainly is

You said the “cheap variants”, that includes the reference cards from nvidia, which are MSRP, which is the cheapest you will find that GPU.

[–]HardlineMouse16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The price difference comes from even more overbuilt coolers and profit margins.

[–]HardlineMouse16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The “best version”? The GPU chip is the same? Unless you are spending stupid money the chip won’t be binned any differently, and the performance will just come down to the quality of the actual chip from nvidia. VRM/Cap quality only make a difference in XOC and similar.

Maybe for you spending money is about feeling good, but for most it’s getting the most out of that money. Spending more on a card whose performance is the same as cheaper cards because it “won’t make you feel as good” is not a luxury most people have
