[2014-12-03. : 7:31 pm]  jjf28 -- I guess there could be two allocation methods, or an override with options for unmanaged/managed memory, gg coding[2014-12-03. : 7:19 pm] jjf28 -- as long as one pointer to the block remains other pointers can do what they want[2014-12-03. : 7:18 pm]  O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- In playing with Android I'm basically just copying a program I already had, so I wrote a function to write the output big-endian, so I just made a function that fwrite's the bytes backwards ;o[2014-12-03. : 7:18 pm] Devourer -- So you would have two pointers, one pointing at the first address and remaining there while the other starts there too but is iterating?[2014-12-03. : 7:17 pm] Devourer -- Well, I find pointer iterations quite useful, but I did not yet deal with auto-garbage-collectors (only our own programmed OperaingSystem, which has a "garbage collection" upon killing an process, but not automatically)[2014-12-03. : 7:17 pm] jjf28 -- you need to have a pointer to a block of memory, or it's considered dead[2014-12-03. : 7:16 pm] Devourer -- *ptr = 0xFF; ptr++; and the 0xFF would be removed/deleted automatically?[2014-12-03. : 7:15 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: do you like iterating pointers? that's where the real problem comes in with auto garbage collection ptr++? I do that sometimes. In fact, I did that yesterday![2014-12-03. : 7:15 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: you can use a C++ compiler and write all C code I've done that  though that's counterproductive as C is slightly more portable I forgot what program it was, but I needed some library or something that only had a C++ implementation so I just checked the C++ compile option. [2014-12-03. : 7:14 pm] jjf28 -- do you like iterating pointers? that's where the real problem comes in with auto garbage collection[2014-12-03. : 7:14 pm] jjf28 -- you can use a C++ compiler and write all C code though that's counterproductive as C is slightly more portable[2014-12-03. : 7:13 pm] jjf28 -- though pointer arithmetic could be left to die, can't see a modern use for it[2014-12-03. : 7:13 pm] Devourer -- I'm using C to make software for a piece of hardware :c pretty much a simple operating system with scheduler, allocation, input etc[2014-12-03. : 7:12 pm] jjf28 -- can't garbage collect everywhere cause that defies C's nature to play with pointers[2014-12-03. : 7:12 pm] jjf28 -- C++ is like... almost perfect, just needs some trait that makes objects a part of garbage collection[2014-12-03. : 7:11 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I rarely make anything complex enough to necessitate C++[2014-12-03. : 7:11 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I was going to mention that, but decided against it ... [2014-12-03. : 7:09 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- SacrieurSacrieur shouted: C# is like java, only not retarded. Or you can be a real man and use C++[2014-12-03. : 7:01 pm] Devourer -- "+15 kudos to dev for links in quotes and zip filelist cleanup " <3[2014-12-03. : 6:59 pm] jjf28 -- Fire_KameFire_Kame shouted: @jack yep got married on Friday. I met a guy in Vegas about two months ago and thought why not? Who says love doesn't blossom like this  [2014-12-03. : 6:58 pm] Fire_Kame -- @jack yep got married on Friday. I met a guy in Vegas about two months ago and thought why not? Who says love doesn't blossom like this[2014-12-03. : 6:54 pm] Devourer -- example bbcode and expected output? just a name not being a link?[2014-12-03. : 6:53 pm] jjf28 -- yay it parses links, though the "Quote from name:" is irksome when it's not a valid name[2014-12-03. : 6:45 pm] jjf28 -- if you can't fix it cleanly try: logout (save shout textbox contents) login (load shout textbox contents)[2014-12-03. : 6:43 pm] jjf28 -- it mostly a problem on mobile devices, where you spend far too much time typing something then lose it or have to work with their crappy paste mechanisms[2014-12-03. : 6:41 pm] Devourer -- in addition, you would have to relog to make the shoutbox work again?[2014-12-03. : 6:41 pm] Devourer -- Shoutbox: it shows no reaction when you were on SEN for a long time (opened tab) and after being inactive for a while, hitting enter just will not work[2014-12-03. : 6:31 pm] Sacrieur -- Likewise, the contest's staff also demonstrates an equal amount of professionalism and personal responsibility, this works both ways[2014-12-03. : 6:29 pm] Sacrieur -- I don't care how many maps I have on the finish line, the prize incentivizes participation. If they don't want the prize, that's fine [2014-12-03. : 6:29 pm] jjf28 -- SacrieurSacrieur shouted: I'm not going to hold the contestant's hand. No one asked you to, I'm just suggesting you might have a few more maps on the finish line with the trivial device of: an optional sign up sheet  [2014-12-03. : 6:28 pm] Sacrieur -- Either they're self motivated or not, it's not in the spirit of the contest to do anything that's their own responsibility.[2014-12-03. : 6:25 pm] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: all hail the mighty Devo (open a topic if you don't get it) [2014-12-03. : 6:24 pm] NudeRaider -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: NudeRaider I have little sympathy as I (and others) have offered to help with coding That's for Devlin to decide.[2014-12-03. : 6:22 pm] jjf28 -- AzraelAzrael shouted: But as it stands, the community is one which hates feeling obligated to do anything. The fact they "have to" do it acts as a demotivator. less productive because they feel obligated? what kind of backwards world do you live in xD people participate in mapping and mapping contests for the love and fun of mapping, some get through the tedious parts because they already committed to the project in question[2014-12-03. : 6:20 pm] Devourer -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Hate on Devo for not being your personal problem solver 24/7 and releasing what he worked on for months and not holding back until every tiny bit was perfect all you want. But personally I love SEN v6. So much more responsive and stable. I gladly take the few problems it has for that. NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: And I fully understand that Devo, after having worked for months is now taking a break from fixing minor stuff. I'm sure he'll come back in a few months and do stuff again. <3[2014-12-03. : 6:16 pm] jjf28 -- though yeah i'm not an old enough mapper to be seen in many before that[2014-12-03. : 6:16 pm] *jjf28 opens the last week-long and a few others to confirm they weren't "weekly", sees that i'm in it, slaps az*[2014-12-03. : 6:10 pm] jjf28 -- AzraelAzrael shouted: Considering I participated in 7 of the last 8 weekly contests, I don't personally need to look-up the contest threads to know what the participation was. AzraelAzrael shouted: As I recall, you didn't participate in any of them. pics or it didn't happen [2014-12-03. : 6:10 pm] Azrael -- But as it stands, the community is one which hates feeling obligated to do anything. The fact they "have to" do it acts as a demotivator.[2014-12-03. : 6:10 pm] Azrael -- If someone is really concerned that they need to sign-up to follow-through with completing a map, they should publicly state that intention. Same difference; they become a liar if they don't submit a map. |
