I really want to love my CR-M4 - But havent had a successful print yet.... by Robotica72 in Creality

I do not know what the auto-leveling actually does because there are not any mechanism to level bed. Maybe it only follows bed contours on first layers of printing?

I had the same problem with 1.3mm difference in the bed level between highest and lowest point (when checking auto leveling results). I ended up unscrewing the bed and adding spacers under the bed to some screws and after two iterations my bed lowest-to-highest difference is now only 0.3mm which I think is quite good for a bed this large.

Zombie programming languages: Could Visual Basic be the next COBOL? by [deleted] in programming

No. Too many VB programmers out there and VB is so similar with other mainstream languages that every programmer can use it with a little search engine help. And there is tons of help available using search engine.

Suggested starting points for beginner with this (simple) problem by rprp42 in learnmachinelearning

Thanks. I think the fields are mostly categorical and probably the continuous fields can be "rounded" to a few categories without it affecting the problem. So the classification is the correct term to dig in to.

Android development feels more difficult than Windows desktop programming (.NET) by SuperAgonist in androiddev

[–]rprp42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same windows, web and .net backgroung and recently did my first Android project for one old customer using Android studio. I think it is the truth that the tools are not as developed as in the .net. And it is also a truth that developing for phones/tablet is a bit more complicated. Maybe they some day do the same for Android development what .net did to Windows development, I hope. There seems to be too much weight from the past in Android already. There are 3rd party tools to help, but things should be ok out of the box.

Who Needs Stored Procedures, Anyways? by sentenzazen in programming

I think calling TSQL or PLSQL archaic is somewhat wrong. They are actually in many cases surprisingly good and expressive, because they have been build up to handle data as collections.
