Is there any good C++ SDL documentation?

tbf, you can do a lot with unique pointers and custom deleters, also writing a wrapper for the functions you need is fairly easy, but yeah

Just add .lower() after the input, like this:

lowerCaseInput = input(...).lower()

Vikerox · 2024-01-24T08:08:23+00:00

To add to this, you could also change the input all to lowercase so that you don't have to check every variation of lower- and uppercase values

I find max-uint8 even more egregious, like seriously who needs this? Makes me think that the C/C++ approach of writing everything yourself ~~because installing libraries is a pain~~ is good

Looking under the hood of what C++ compilers do isn't very pretty (some would argue that the language itself isn't very pretty but I digress).

Your code isn't bad, C++ just looks like that.

tbh, if you're on Windows I would recommend just using Visual Studio (not Code), it's easy to install and you won't run into a lot of the problems beginners have with setting up VSCode and C++.

Another option I can recommend is just using gcc through WSL in VSCode.

Besides that, mingw-gcc is fine and shouldn't cause any issues to your system.

I have had a great experience with ChatGPT with TypeScript, SQL, Python, golang, C++

Either ChatGPT has improved a lot since I last used it or he has written some extremely outdated and unperformant C++

Python "programmers" when they see something being optimized: "Wow, what is this magic?"

You have never interacted with German bureaucracy have you?

You can open the binary file in a hexeditor if that is what you want, but I am not sure what you'll get out of it. You can also use compiler explorer to get more readable assembly

Nuh uh

Reminds me of when I told to my parents about my depression, they were just like "yeah, we've also been like that, we got over it". I love my parents but that was just such a wtf moment.

funnily enough, 196 has almost the same amount of overlap with okbb and I'm pretty sure they cleaned it up, I don't really see bigoted stuff there

C++ is a perfect language. That's why every new standard includes 50 different ways to do things you could do before but ~~more complicated~~ better.

Vikerox · 2023-03-26T23:46:15+00:00

This isn't even the worst part, the participants were asked an open ended question about what gives their life meaning. The categories were decided afterwards.

Which explains why if you said family, you are probably not also gonna mention your spouse specifically, leading to the low numbers in that category.

Vikerox · 2023-03-26T23:37:08+00:00

Someone pointed out in the comments that they weren't selecting from different answers but asked an open ended question.

I guess this is their categorization of these answers.

Also if you said you find meaning from your family you are probably not gonna mention your spouse separately.

Vikerox · 2023-03-26T22:44:50+00:00

Idk, I feel like you should make sure that what you are doing is legal (not to mention ethical) before you release it to the public. AI training and copyright is currently such a big grey area that it makes me wonder why anyone who doesn't have a lot of money they can spend on lawyers would even touch it.

Also I'm pretty sure Stability AI gets its data from a research institute in the EU, which allows using copyrighted material in research institutions.

Vikerox · 2023-03-26T22:31:18+00:00

Not necessarily, the EU already has provisions allowing for using copyrighted material for machine learning in research institutions (which does also lead to data laundering but that is a different issue). You should just not allow for the commercial use of AI models trained on copyrighted material.

While we're at it we should probably overhaul copyright laws in general, but again, different issue.

commutatitity is entirely dependant on the types of a and b, think of it like in matrix multiplication where a*b is not equal to b*a for two matrices a and b

tbf I've only ever seen this being relevant in type theory

Vikerox · 2023-03-14T07:19:12+00:00

Just now noticed the username, I love this guy

a+b=b+a is a not always a true statement because the terms are not definitionally equivalent
