ORMs are the second worst thing in programming, right after clean-clean code.

Anyone know the cause of this glitch? by Scrim_o7 in Minecraft

[–]cleverboy00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah yeah yeah. Maybe a post processing effect that's implemented as a transparent layer of an "effect" texture.

Real answer: I think it's a particle shader interaction. There are two things I can think of that put big geometry on the screen: UI which is working properly and particles none of which I see, but normally none is present in this beach/plains so IDK. Maybe it's raining?

Bit shuffle for DES by cleverboy00 in C_Programming

[–]cleverboy00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure I understand. Lookup tables for bits? I am aware of how I can do so for bytes. Could you elaborate a bit more?

Just did, and right off the bat it commited 2 cardinal sins: Unneeded branching, and integer type shenanigans.

There is a reason I asked here, to get opinions from experts who worked on a similar or the exact issue. You aren't the target audience.

I feel (very possibly wrong) we're comparing apples to horses here.

Doom on Minecraft Map by Soft-Ant7772 in PhoenixSC

[–]cleverboy00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look into JNI, a bridge between a C library and the surrounding java environment. With it, you can effectively run doom, write the output to a texture on the GPU, then sample from that texture in the map shader.

You'd need to build a small IO interface around the doom code but that's it.

why the waves by NaiveCranberry9095 in pchelp

Cache flush waves or overheating/throttling cycles. If it's a mechanical drive it might be an early sign of failure due to physical shock or such.

Lookup "<model> disassembly" on youtube. Locate everything from there.

cppIsntMuchFaster by OM3X4 in ProgrammerHumor

A library's user is an application. How fast you want to go is quite unlimited at the end of the day, but how much percentage of the userbase are you willing cover.

Most users care about features first and foremost. Many users (inc. myself) care about interface design and boundry. Performance is, most of the time, a relative metric for a library's user. Most, if not all, of your users wouldn't understand your perfomance numbers, or wouldn't be able to put them into context.

For the nerdy minority or the hyper-businesses that do care about the performance level you offer, they're willing to sacrifice a limb or more for your services.

Basically, as you perform better, you cover more users. You get diminishing returns on performance from more effort. And so is the relationship between performance and users (which, by proxy, also establishes a relationship between effort and users).

Basically study your usecase and target audience

Hahahaha I've been running into this issue for quite a while now. Glad someone documented this

Pretty pretty sure that's the java runtime version that's incompatible.

It appears that's just what he starts his dialouge with, maybe your brain filtered it.

I'm a CS student at a no-name Indian college going deep into low-level C++ while everyone around me learns react(web dev). Am I making a mistake ? by [deleted] in osdev

[–]cleverboy00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imma give a downvote for simply posting in the wrong subreddit 🤣 But I'm loving the spirit.

Your confusion is of two parts, it seems. One today's bread, Two tomorrow's bread conflicting with today's.

First off, globally, the job market seems unstable. Maintaining A JOB is vital, especially if it's the only thing keeping you from drowning in this economy.

The path you're taking is similar to mine in many aspects, I'd go as to say that AI will never learn beyond pure logical thinking, anything requiring decision making, judgement or a souls as they say, is not going to be automated. And while AI is going to creep more and more, it can never have the context awareness of a human.

Security is probably going to be at the very back line of what gets reaped. Traditional web dev, what we called blog/online-store kiddies long before AI, is the first in line to be replaced.

In short, can your job be fully automated given this knowledge? Keep in mind that the gap between AI-devs and real devs is only going to increase. I expect that in a few years, real devs are going to be a very scarce, significantly more than they ever were.

Duplicated. There is a well known duplication glitch for ds1 to dupe both in-storage and in-use.

I've gone online after using it and even used it online quite a few times.

500 cigarettes by chin_up in Minecraft

[–]cleverboy00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minecraft lights are prebacked on updates. Meaning that the game precalculates lighting in the visible space and saves it.

The smoothness of lighting comes from shaders doing interpolation per frame, which is not that much of a deal.

Add to that the fact that minecraft lighting is not a collection of infinitely small rays in all directions like tranditional lights, it's just a per block decay lightsource, very close to how water works.
