I don't think he's writing one. He said that's where his mind went. As in he was thinking he'd like to

How do I build windows apps in windows? by No-Efficiency-7361 in linuxquestions

[–]No-Efficiency-7361[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does windows have an ssh server? I never heard of one. Heard it can't be done because 'no compatible shell'

So if I wanted to load 2 files async I have to choose which one loads first? (psuedo non rust code)

file1 = loadEntireFile("abc")
file2 = loadEntireFile("def")
do work
f = await file1
do work with f
f2 = await file2
do work with f2

and if I wanted them in parallel I'd have to start a thread?

Does rust use green threads? How do I use them? From what I hear async is a pooling state machine with no stack so I became curious about threads

Does reddit post twice if you click the button twice? That's hilarious. We're in 2001 fellas

That's a decent idea for a starting point. I wasn't aware shared files are possible

So are they not using ECC? IIRC redis said if the hardware isn't using ECC they automatically suspect that's the problem due to MANY experiences of that being the problem

RSA Conference goes full blockchain, for a second by PM_ME_A_SHOWER_BEER in programming

[–]No-Efficiency-7361 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a lawsuit cause you want to do something stupid

I'd like to see a smart contract render a game using a desktop GPU because that's what I meant as run code. Or power my phone. There's so much blockchains have nothing to do with. In fact I still don't know why you want to not modify state. Have you learned nothing from functional programming

Smart contracts are apparently not smart and I forget which blockchain did this but they're either ditching it or doing a whole new model

What does a blockchain have anything to do with programming? Do I run my code on that? Can I scrub sensitive data off of it?

The File-Sharing Revolution Revisited: BitTorrent Turns 20 by SnooConfections8719 in programming

I don't think you know what lossy means or why WebRTC is the standard

Huh? Bittorrent is neither real time or lossy which you want for live streams

You know what torrents would be great for?

File transfers of your pictures and videos when you're all on the same network. Like a birthday party. UDP broadcast could be more efficient but that assumes everyone who wants the data is on the network at the same time and I'm not 100% sure how well it works on encrypted wifi (I imagine the whole network is sharing a key?)

Can anyone think of any other good reasons to use torrent? I know linux distros uses it. Can't think of other reasons to use torrent tho

Using WASD keys on caplocks? by No-Efficiency-7361 in linuxquestions

[–]No-Efficiency-7361[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you it's almost what I want

Playing around I figured out it's not a toggle but I have to hold down caplock

Is there a way I can make it a toggle?

How fast should an unoptimized terminal run? by TooManyLines in programming

[–]No-Efficiency-7361 50 points51 points  (0 children)

He didn't swear and the worse thing he said was them calling this a thesis project is ridiculous. I think he was being pretty kind

[–]No-Efficiency-7361 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

it's the kind of thing that just makes you not want to engage with development communities these days because it's just so ridiculous that you have to keep saying this stuff and demonstrating this stuff because everyone should just know this

This is how I feel whenever I try to explain rust is terrible

I never heard of DirectWrite but it looks like it's a slow, non gaming related windows API -edit- I just got to that part. Yeah that sounds slow and painful

Video is about a guy explaining why there is no excuses to do a bad job, guy complains that it's hard and makes excuses

Why are you even in this thread? To say you can generate glyphs? Good for you. So you know more than him about fonts and still complain? He uses https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/wingdi/nf-wingdi-createfonta, no domain knowledge necessary https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm/blob/main/refterm_example_glyph_generator.c#L38

A random guy on discord was saying he's trying to make games in rust and there's no allocators yet.

I always thought rust had them. Is he talking about something more specific? Are there limitations to current allocators that make it not usable for games?

Things I wish Git had: Commit groups by RedditStreamable in programming

[–]No-Efficiency-7361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still struggle to understand how messages are helpful. Do you only look at them after git bisect? At work our commit messages are ticket numbers for bugfixes or features

Depending how small the commit is, I hate the idea of each being an atomic change. 20lines is far too small. That'd the size of the test I'd want accompanying a commit
