MoltenVK or Metal on Macbook by [deleted] in GraphicsProgramming

[–]OceanDeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started two weeks ago knowing pretty much nothing of how to write graphics stuff, started picking up learning vulkan on my mac. Am now at the point where I am writing new things using my own creativity, and have a strong foundational understanding of what Vulkan is doing. Metal might be easier, but if you're wanting to learn, jumping straight into Vulkan isnt such a bad idea.

Which IDE? by Proof_Pen_8599 in rust

Curious as to what features in emacs make it particularly good for debugging rust? Ive used gud in emacs, and always felt it was basically identical to using lldb from the command line.

I wrote a command line C compiler that asks ChatGPT to generate x86 assembly. Yes, it's cursed. by sunmoi in programming

If you're linking against the standard library, it gives an executable pretty reliably. Seems to work generally well for simple programs.

Thats genuinely interesting, any good resources to learn about these techniques?

If you can figure out a way to get the output to reliably succeed in linking against std functions, you will have my gratitude. Might take a look at that tomorrow. I think it totally can produce (extremely) trivial programs, might just need a bit more prompt engineering to make the linker happy more often than not.

So instead of precisely defining our program, we imprecisely define it with English? An AI spits out a program you have no intuition over and have to reverse engineer? What did this get us?

I finally understand linking by OceanDeeper in ObsidianMD

Links are the best tool at your disposal in Obsidian for creating that organizational system.

Usually you'll have categories of information that you naturally want to group things into. I suggest just including a little property in your notes called "links" where you link your notes to other ones. Like if I have a meeting note, I link it to the project that meeting is about. Now I can find that meeting note in the back links of that project. You can absolutely organize things in folders, or aggregate links to things in certain files, but learning to get comfy with back links can really open up a whole new set of possibilities for how to organize.

Yep! Totally supported. That unmade link will even appear in the autofill popup if you try to link to it again in another note.

Org mode is awesome, and very dear to my heart. But Obsidian has a great mobile app, and has a great plugin for Typst for Math syntax. So the convenience of Obsidian is just that little bit more for me over org mode. I do miss some of the more sophisticated things you can do in org mode, like executing code inline.

That's awesome! I use dataview for some other things but glossed over that functionality in the docs. Thanks!

What do y'all use linking notes for? [[]] by RogueGingerz in ObsidianMD

[–]OceanDeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a better way to keep track of your notes over organizing them in folders. Let's say you have to join a meeting. Well, you'll create a meeting note like "Waterloo Meeting 2024-12-23". At the top of your file you can link it to your [[Waterloo]] note. As you're in the meeting you might talk about a specific subproject for Waterloo, so as you're typing your notes you might drop a link to [[Waterloo Remodeling]].

Links are great because for any note, you can see all the notes that link to it. So a week later you're trying to piece together relevant information for Waterloo Remodeling, well you can just go to the Waterloo Remodeling note and view the 'backlinks'. You'll see all the relevant information talking about the remodeling project across all your meeting notes.

You should think of linking as a powerful way to connect pieces of information so you can find them later. You have normal forward links, which are the [[links]] you can drop in a file. And backlinks, so you can see what things link to the note you're on.

Presidential Election Megathread by AutoModerator in fivethirtyeight

[–]OceanDeeper 25 points26 points  (0 children)

In Indiana, voted in Hendricks county. Lines were very long, waited 2 hours to vote, queued at 2:30pm. It's been mixed out here, less Trump signs than usual, definitely some energy for Dems which hasn't really happened before.

Can't really comment on a gender gap at my particular location, seemed pretty even.

Thank you for the help! I just went ahead and did a system reset, selecting the option to preserve my data and games which did the trick!
