ok i guess my buffer was 1 byte too small?

09:21

idk how

09:21

because it is only too small in some cases

09:21

it makes 0 sense tbh

09:22

unless malloc allocated more memory than i request

09:22

then it actually makes sense

09:22

it would explain why i didnt get a segfault

09:23

or maybe i was accessing memory which was allocated to my program by accident

asking the OS for memory does not happen with single byte precision

so my code for like 9 days was just wrong LOL

09:25

i also thought text files include 0 at the end

09:25

but i guess that would be dumb

files end with EOF but some functions to read those files will insert trailing null bytes if you're reading the file as a string (edited)

how does EOF work?

ummm

like it cant be physically in the file

09:30

because all 256 possible bytes can be in a file

I guess that's file system dependent

09:31

then your OS and libraries just translate that into a special marker

09:32

so really the natural way to check for EOF is not to check for the marker value but to check for whatever EOF flag exists

WOW

10:02

i think i created a solution for part 2 before creating the solution for part 1

10:03

thats insane

10:07

because part 2 is literally easier to solve for some reason

Whoever thought of this, this is actually brilliant https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/neutrino_modem.png

its just another dimension obviously

@TsFreddie is it true, that middle class chinese rather sit in traffic in their car, than use metro and waste only 1/4 of the time compred to sitting in the car?

13:17

Or is it random internet rumour

TsFreddie

nouis

I might give up on shape keys and just use textures

Wouldn't you rather just use two separate eye meshes that you toggle on and off? It'd look sharper at least

13:26

also no need to render transparency

Overlord

@TsFreddie is it true, that middle class chinese rather sit in traffic in their car, than use metro and waste only 1/4 of the time compred to sitting in the car?

we dont have metro here

risu

Wouldn't you rather just use two separate eye meshes that you toggle on and off? It'd look sharper at least

textures can probably have morm freedom in terms what eyes looks like.

risu

Wouldn't you rather just use two separate eye meshes that you toggle on and off? It'd look sharper at least

actually now that I think of it, if you did the UV map right you could get a perfectly sharp line across and could use a super low res texture

i might need some non-tw eyes for some npcs

13:28

if i manage to figure out shape key id prefer mesh, if not then just texture

13:29

i'd prefer figuring out the shape key first tho

13:29

at least from normal to angry

TsFreddie

we dont have metro here

Meant overal not Ur situation, that is if U know

then idk

unless most young people are not middle class anymore

A friend works as an IT at place where farmers do taxes etc and he was theeatened to be let fo If he doesnt get license in half a year

TsFreddie

is drivers license your ID

No

i know some country avoid using national ID but everyone just uses driver's license for IDing anyway.

And since then 2 years passed and he never had to use it

meanwhile US is using a insecure number as gov ID which the tax dept explicitly told everyone it is unsafe to use as an ID and everyone still did anyway.

The Worst Excuse In Economics...

15:15

wow

15:16

that always confused me

15:16

for example layoffs

15:16

layoffs are seen as something bad or even really bad i feel like

15:17

and why?

15:17

if a job is not very needed

15:17

then it shouldnt exist

15:17

and sure it is great to have a job

15:18

but at the end of the day we have jobs because they are actally needed

15:18

and sure robots could take over a really high amount of jobs

15:18

which would in theory suck for those humans

15:18

because they need to survive

15:19

but again we care about the product

15:20

so if we can optimise the number of required jobs it only really makes us richer?

15:22

and i am sure there would be issues if most jobs just disappeared in a short amount of time but it is a solvable issue

pilonpl

so if we can optimise the number of required jobs it only really makes us richer?

often "optimizing" stands for making everything as cheap as possible to maximize revenue. it's not bad in terms of becoming richer, but overall utility goes lower

well

15:36

i guess the issue is that the market very often chooses the cheaper thing

not really, but cheap market is the largest one i suppose

15:37

you wouldn't choose cheap material for building skyscrapers if you care fr

and cheap isnt necessarily bad

pilonpl

and cheap isnt necessarily bad

oh no my landscaping is going to fall apart because I bought cheap gravel

i think it's better to have a bit worse food but actually have it than spend 90% of your wealth on food just for it to be kinda better

15:38

or you might not have it at all

15:38

like was and still is the case for a lot of people

pilonpl

i think it's better to have a bit worse food but actually have it than spend 90% of your wealth on food just for it to be kinda better

Worse food -> worse health -> all U saved up ends spent on meds

pilonpl

i think it's better to have a bit worse food but actually have it than spend 90% of your wealth on food just for it to be kinda better

xd, cheap food is literally a problem as WHO mentioned

Its like saving on toothpaste

15:39

U save now 5€ to spend 500€ at the dentist in a year

if youre eating cheap food you just want to passively kys faster (edited)

15:40

i mean, if you are able to buy better food

zhn

if youre eating cheap food you just want to passively kys faster (edited)

U can do that with any food tbh if U want ro kys faster

i mean it on a bigger scale, food now is a lot easier to get than like 200 years ago

15:41

and it is cheaper compared to that

15:41

if you know what i mean

but we are talking about current timeline

15:42

would you really prefer cheap food instead of good alternatives?

no

15:42

but thats not what i am talking about

pilonpl

i mean it on a bigger scale, food now is a lot easier to get than like 200 years ago

Food now or then, is same as always, peasants should earn exactly enough to buy just that to keep working

you jumped from "cheap is good for economics" to "cheap is good because more people can afford it"

it's just not possible to get enough food for everyone without using some of the problematic things

it's not a topic i wanted to argue about xd

15:45

i'll leave off topic for now then

Pesticides i guess could technically be an issue

pilonpl

it's just not possible to get enough food for everyone without using some of the problematic things

ehhhh just like, produce less beef or something, and you have capacity for way more

justatest

1

i just feel like it's a much more complicated issue then people realize

15:46

because sure maybe some things got worse

15:46

and some stuff used to be a lot better

idk its still pretty ok there in russia

but you can't just ignore the fact that overall lots of things have improved and sacrificing other things might just be worth it (edited)

First of all, U could easily feed everyone (talking about current population) because if U couldnt we wouldnt increase the total population, so atm U have excess of food

no one said that it was better in past in terms of food being more affordable kekw

yeah we can but a lot of it is modern technology

The biggest "game changer" was actually engine. For farm equipment (tractor for example) because U only have 2-3 days for a good harvest

15:50

Problem in farming atm is exactly technology and the seeds

seeds?

They are modified so U cant use it more than once ( which js opposite of real plants would want )

15:50

Yes, seeds are copyrighted

15:50

Patented or whatever

hm, have to consult my father

Overlord

Yes, seeds are copyrighted

wow

don't really think that farmers in tatarstan use anything than native (that are used since 1900s for example) seeds

it's also insane how much stuff is produced in china

zhn

don't really think that farmers in tatarstan use anything than native (that are used since 1900s for example) seeds

No idea how many people tatarstan feeds

15:52

Also nobody is safe, because for example big corpo comes, sells their modified seeds, to new farmers / ones that start out for really low price, hence they can sell wheat for less than og tatarstan farmer

15:53

Give take few years og farmers are basically gone, and now everyone is dependant on modified 1 year only seeds

15:53

This shit is literally what happend in poland with original sodas

15:53

Coca cola and pepsi came, undercut price for years

i feel like so many issues that are centered around economics aren't well understood by people and i also dont know that much so yeah (edited)

And bam U dont have natively made soda, and now cola proces are insane

15:54

Well current life is confusing and its hard to pick a side

15:55

Example meds in usa, often are extremely overpriced because of patents, so noone else can produce hence U can have 1300% markup

15:55

While in india it works differently and same medicine is produced for worldwide customer for $5

15:55

Now on one hand we should respect intellectual property because it incentives people to think and make progress

patents are kinda bs tbh

On the other patent laws are terrible if minor changes can give them the right to the thing for another 20 years

15:56

There are also situations where compnies file a patent that is slightly worse than what they came up with only so they can say they modernised it when its about to expire

don't patents just allow companies to create monopolies but legally for some reason? (edited)

15:58

i just don't understand at all what the purpose of patents is

https://discord.com/channels/252358080522747904/342454474117218334/1316069724089487500 @TimXker both sound terrible. Whats ur budget?

ok now that i think about it patents might be necessary to cover research and development costs

pilonpl

i just don't understand at all what the purpose of patents is

The purpose is, so that when U spend years of time and monry to create something, U get paid by either allowing somone else to use it in their products or by making it urself

pilonpl

ok now that i think about it patents might be necessary to cover research and development costs

U figured urself

16:03

Congrats

16:04

Either way thing is there are also multiple people who hold same patent because some things are banned from production and hencr patents are undisclosed

16:07

Either way patents are crap just as big as contracts that make U unable to work in certain field for X years in fear that U will help competition

Overlord

No idea how many people tatarstan feeds

tatarstan exports more than 400k tons a year making 3.6 million tons a year so

also, I really didnt expect negative population growth for such prolonged periods fo time there

18:15

must have been political situations

just imagine: covid and the war

we had a decline in 2019 and 2020 and went good on 2021 but got a decline on 2022

its just a silly joke, dont bother!

18:22

the interesting thing in the region (imo) is that it's both heavy industry and food

18:22

I would guess those usually dont mix

I wonder if people pre-electricity were annoyed with flickering flames / bad wicks

they were probably more annoyed by some diseases or parasites idk

♂S1mple♂

they were probably more annoyed by some diseases or parasites idk

nah, today a lot of people have parasites aswell and arent annoyed

19:42

also, the bigger population density the more diseases and parasites thrive

19:43

(hence european extra power vs latin america)

Overlord

nah, today a lot of people have parasites aswell and arent annoyed

yeah i don't only mean roundworms

19:44

and you get medication and treatment for any parasites nowadays

♂S1mple♂

and you get medication and treatment for any parasites nowadays

YOU WILL NOT TAKE WILHELM FROM ME!!!

19:45

(btw I get Ur point) but for real, try to use unstable source of light

19:45

and even while looking at LED pc screen, the flickering of darker and lighter behind urself is extremely annoying

yeah i can't imagine people writing/reading at night time with like 1 candle up

19:45

sounds awful

as long as wick is fine, and there is literally no air movement, it's ok / fine / not that bad

19:46

but if there iss even a bit of movement they flicker like mfs

I mean they used glass to keep wind from hitting the flames too much didn;t they

those are lanterns ig

19:47

or that's the term for fueled ones

19:47

idk

i mean with like, a hole on the top

also iirc those fueled lanterns were extremly unhealthy to use

I might be fibbin tho idk

well there are those open lamps designs

♂S1mple♂

also iirc those fueled lanterns were extremly unhealthy to use

walls were made of lead

but those were not for the poor also they came much later

19:48

with more liquid'y flues* (edited)

Welshi

walls were made of lead

and asbestos, I think the unhealthy lanterns weren't really on their radars

theoretically no fire source in closed room is healthy

true

19:49

I always wonder about people whiffing these at home

19:49

these sticks that burn and provide "aroma"

aroma candles are more common ig (edited)

19:50

where you got that gif

19:50

from the discord giphy thing

19:51

also it doesnt move for me

the smoke

so i dont even know what's there aside from man with some burner

19:51

ch ok

19:51

then im blind

i had to look closely to see what is moving (edited)

either way, 1 bigger candle (with decent wick) is defienietly cheaper than electric light

19:52

but the wicks they make at stores are such a crap that doesnt burn decently

1 candle will provide less light though

what do U need light for?

light the room

if U are assemblign electronics / etc then of course, but if U're just eating, looking at pc /tv, thinking

19:53

then candles ftw

19:54

+ as far as Ik from experience as long as U get flat wick (not roundy one)

19:54

U can even read

light keeps you awake kinda

problem is fuel, no matter what fuel I buy they either smell weirdly, or do leave smoke

if light source is small you get sleepier

♂S1mple♂

light keeps you awake kinda

just like man made horrors, beyond my comperhension

19:54

idk, I could never sleep with a flame burning around

you don't sleep

even if I know it's "safe"...

but light is low enough to make you sleepier

♂S1mple♂

you don't sleep

see, the candles work better!

Overlord

even if I know it's "safe"...

that's another reason to not use candles

19:55

my stupid ass will light the house on fire

I have no idea what sort of cat are You, but mine defienietly doesnt need light source to stay awake

that's also the reason behind why you shouldn't use bright white light before sleeping

19:56

or electronic gadgets

♂S1mple♂

that's also the reason behind why you shouldn't use bright white light before sleeping

huh why?

Image attachment

then why do I sleep during the day, and am awake here at night

19:58

makes no sense!

cuz your different

19:58

well, try the candles trick to stay awake forever

19:58

it's cheap! 0.75€ for 26h candle

19:59

these mfs are not candles

19:59

and are a huge scam

yeah cuz the design is fucking stupid (edited)

improve it

make it less wider

20:01

if it's wide so that wax leaks inside make some sink thing at the top without wax

20:02

and with that you can increase the size of it

there are those like that already

20:02

I think I have "body" of one like that, works better aka is unaffected by the container of container

20:03

tho from my experiment, only the one in warm surroundings melted fully and survived

what if your house is cold (edited)

its is, why else would i light 5 real candles and 8 of those shits

20:05

then again its tradeoff of inhaling smoke

there are electrical heaters

20:06

trollet

20:06

no smoke

yeah I had one, my mom took it, cuz its cold at her workplace

20:07

tho electrical heaters are expenisve

20:07

and older ones smell not nicely (especially if U have furry animals)

20:07

yes yes, U can disassemble and reassaemble it

20:07

I also used to have electrical blanket, that thing kept me in bed for 18h a day during weekends

how was your back feeling

hot, and wet, but electric blanket evaporates the wetness

20:09

other than that U dont really feel anything there

20:09

it's just like lying on regular sheets

ok i meant like back hurting stuff

20:09

but that's interesting too

why would it hurt bruh, it's relaxation! but yeah if You dont move at all in bed then stuff can start hurting

20:09

but that's why U have 4 sides to lie on

fair

20:10

though i hate laying on stomach

20:11

it's cool for like 15 mins

♂S1mple♂

it's cool for like 15 mins

true, I wanted to sleep on stomach few times in life, but I guess its only for truly fat people

im kinda fat tbh and it's uncomfortable

20:13

it's way harder to breath than any other pose

are U truly fat or just fat

guess just fat

because im just fat aswell, but the only stomach sleeper ik, is truly fat (Especially on the belly)

thin legs, big belly

fat keeps the lungs away from ribs so you can enjoy the sleep

Boltzmann brain

The Boltzmann brain thought experiment suggests that it might be more likely for a brain to spontaneously form in space, complete with a memory of having existed in our universe, rather than for the entire universe to come about in the manner cosmologists think it actually did. Physicists use the Boltzmann brain thought experiment as a reductio ...

^ isnt it burnt af on sides?

nah

it's just a schnitzel with different name from what i see

20:23

due to the fact that I ate it all my life, I do try to avoid it. hope it tasted nicely tho

argentina are the masters of this

20:26

its not the same trust me

20:27

i think its different type of meat tho

might be, I only ate it in poland and germany (unless somewhere else aswell but have decided to get rid of that memory)

I think it's better to always have bad internet connection, than* one that alternates between usable, and dead (edited)
