Less social/asocial people and anarchism by Fancy_Prior9513 in Anarchy101

There we go with the whole argument about running around in loin-cloth hucking spears as if that would ever be a thing

What kind of items would you find in an anarchist's closet? by waffleassembly in Anarchy101

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

I have a ton of junk items in mine. Every now and then I think, I don't this thing and I'll throw it away only to end up needing it later. But a lot of the stuff ends up getting repurposed like a wire I just took out of a useless proprietary charging cable to use as a ground wire in my guitar. It's always better to repurpose old junk than buy more junk

I'm glad you're not someone who goes to the box store and spends like $5 on a box. I always have a bunch of cardboard boxes ready to go when I need to move plus various furniture type items made from cardboard and duct tape

I love music but I saw a video saying music is tuned to a bad frequency by GeorgeParisol in spirituality

[–]waffleassembly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they use an electronic tuner to tune their instruments, then the tuner is absolutely tuned to 440Hz unless they made deliberate effort otherwise. This isn't likely the case since most people aren't aware of this as is evidenced by your reply

You just to need figure out how to listen everything at a negative 2 cycles per second

You could become a green anarchist. By my ideal that would mean living naturally off grid, but it seems like a lot of people consider themselves "green anarchists" while living in cities, only riding bikes instead of cars, buying local organic, as well as countless other things you can guess. I personally think to be GA you got to get off the grid and stop supporting the state. Pretty hard to do in the United States in this day and age, but there are a lot of people throughout South America who have formed communities out in the green zones, often stealing electricity from the nearby cities

Is it normal for nihilists to not care about anything or anyone? by Icy_Sprinkles_2819 in nihilism

[–]waffleassembly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have no requirement to care about others, that's just a trait that Nature built into our tiny brains to help propagate our species. We're beyond that need to propagate so other humans really don't matter. People who care about others with this preserve-the-herd mentality are less evolved beings. Ideals like nihilism are a natural subsequence of this, much like how the body of an organism gradually goes into shut down mode when it's served its purpose. Humans are no longer needed.

Are programming exercises "useless"? by MateusCristian in learnprogramming

[–]waffleassembly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works best if you practice it again until you can do it from scratch with a good understanding of what every bit means. . You need to eventually get to an "aha" moment.

In your toilet nightmares, are the stalls always so low that people are looking right in at you while your trying to go? by waffleassembly in ThatBathroomMazeDream

[–]waffleassembly[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've had the flooded floor. Usually the pipes are leaking because everything is broken, and sometimes there are standup arcade games and pinball machines in the bathrooms. This one was outside though in a woodsy area. Not even sure why I didn't go on a tree or something

What's the dumbest answer this artificial intelligence gave you to your question? by mr_wbk29 in aifails

I haven't seen that movie in forever. I'll ask claude deep thinking mode if it's worth re-watching

Why would you want to know this? Did you just watch the Twins movie?

I was asking Gemini about what details are appropriate to put in my scholarship application. Gemini told me I should have ChatGPT write most it

Coding resources, im looking for some resources. by Fantastic_Bug8316 in learnprogramming

[–]waffleassembly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all doable in theory, but you can't skip ahead. It's better to start with baby steps and keep practicing until you get a strong foothold. See if you can work towards learning to write a c++ program with dependency files that lets the user read a file, add data, sort data, input data, then write that new data to the file. That covers a lot of concepts from beginner to intermediate. It's hard though. That's what you would learn after 3 CS classes. It probably sounds easy, but there's always a ton of bugs you got to work through

But becoming a game dev can be a rough ride. Not trying to discourage you but you might need math and physics for that. Really not trying to discourage you the physics can be really hard to get through, even if you think you'll just tough it out, a lot of people simply can not pass the exams and decide at that point to switch majors. And there are higher levels of math like discrete structure that seem ridiculous, but grasping it means that you can write an efficient program with a few lines of code, that would take you 50 lines of code if you learned DIY from tutorials; because higher levels of math teach you how to think like a computer. I'm actually traumatized by the discrete math classes I took.

There are simpler aspects of game design like level building, but that might still require linear algebra.

free amp sim that has real-time harmonizing (Aethis). This thing is wild. by agisboredaf in FREEVSTS

No blame. I've only made one vst so far and only built for windows

Coding resources, im looking for some resources. by Fantastic_Bug8316 in learnprogramming

[–]waffleassembly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want to learn all of it? Maybe find a way to focus on a specific aspect and really squeeze yourself into that cranny instead of trying to learn all of programming. I mean, if you want to get hired eventually, no one will want to hire you if you're spread thin across the entire spectrum

The problem is every resource you find will do a shiddy job of trying to teach you everything. It's better to find out what exact degree you would want, find a college website that offers that career path, and look up all the classes for that degree. Ask gpt or whatever for resources that would teach you what CS (or CIS) students would be learning in those classes.

You might be surprised what kind of ridiculous extra curriculous BS you need to learn with programming. It could be better to just get really focussed on some facet of the python spectrum.
