  • What would be a valuable thing to have memorized by heart?

  • It's not something you try to recite. You just do it so many times you became too good at it to look at the table.

    Four bits can represent up to 15, from 0000 to 1111. Correspondingly, 0 to F in hex.

    Binary from right to left is 1, 2, 4, 8.

    One byte is eight bits. It takes eight digit places.XXXX XXXX

    0000 0000 to 1111 111100 to FF0 to 255

  • It was best as a silly toy language in the 1990's...

  • What you mentioned is compatibility across platforms. A program written in C is also guaranteed to run on all the systems you mentioned, given that the system has a C compiler and libc that stick to the standard. You, the programmer, does not have to anything to "make sure" your program works.

    See this insane list of platforms GCC supports.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Compiler_Collection#Architectures

    We've invented high-level programming languages like C 53 years ago, just to get away from assembly, and to avoid dealing with the "cross-platform" problem you mentioned, remember?

  • You are comparing it to Eclipse. I also give you that.

  • VS Code is a good software? I beg to differ. It's slow. It's messy to look at. It's resource hungry.

    If you think VS Code is a good editor, we can make an even better editor in another language.

  • But why Node? Node cost five seconds just to start up back when I worked on my embedded ARM v7 platform, and on modern x86_64 computers, npx anything takes just as long. Why rely on another runtime? Why not native binaries instead?

  • Not determine, but allows. C is a shitty language too. Linux is great because Linus bars off shitty contributors.

  • I'm 100% sure I can make Rust code (not even compiled to WASM) run natively in a browser like Firefox, given I have enough will power, time, energy, and money. The problem is getting everyone else to agree to this new standard.

    I'm using DisplayPort from now on instead of HDMI!

  • Battery life? Yes, because it's (mobile-grade) ARM. Performance? They are far behind high-end Ryzen or Ultra.

  • Qualcomm has started enshitification of Arduino

  • It's more expensive than what it is really worth years ago, among many other problems. It was a cheap and reliable programming platform when it was Raspberry Pi 1.

  • What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?

  • "I wanna try out this FreeBSD thing."

  • What's the best Online Alarm Clock that's also Open Source?

  • Is this your post?https://lemmy.ml/post/39086016

    You probably shall not ask the same question twice in such a short duration. It wastes server resource and reader's time on duplicated material.

    Have you tried searching on the internet? "Is there an open source alarm program" is not a question. It's a query, which you should just input into Google and such. If it finds nothing good for you, we won't either. We're not better than search engines.

    Imagine every one just makes a post with "Is there an open source XYZ program?" but with "XYZ" replaced with a random feature, this community would become a garbage collection site in one day. I'm sure that is not what you want to see either. Please don't do that.

    However, as a community, we're happy to discuss a project that is already open source, or a closed source program about to get open sourced.

    Writing your own program, and potentially if you're considering making it open source? Great. There are programming communities too. Also try website like StackOverflow.

  • Handled a ThinkPad today. What distro should I go with? Ubuntu? Arch?

    Jump

  • Why not asking? How do you know which distro best fit the computer if you don't know it's screen size and colour? And do ask again when it becomes colder in winter!

  • Do you use a dishwasher or wash dishes by hand?

  • What? I heard they were putting out good money to hire COBOL developers to maintain their old banking systems.

  • What's a video game that you just don't get the hype about?

    Jump

  • If you look at only the rating in number then the gaming industry suffers the same problem as the movie industry. You have to read in-depth review of it to determine the chance of you liking it.

    People still talk about old movies twenty years ago. The original Hollow Knight is still being discussed by the community, especially now that Silksong is out, and the two stories connect. Gameplay-wise, Silksong has not only one, but six sets of play styles (crest). Imagine the contents to experience.

    But of course you don't have to experience all these if it's not your cup of tea. Just saying you don't have to invalid someone else's preference.

  • Distro Recommendation Discussion (Not a 'What Distro Should I Use?' Post)

    Jump

  • I feel the same way, man. Every question of "What distro should I use after Windows 10 EOL?" is just generic to enough to be damned to hell. "Oh, but can it run Microsoft WordPhotoshop/AutoCAD/Steam?" Or, "I only use it to watch YouTube."

    How about finding a question that was already answered by others?

    How about trying it out on a virtual machine or a secondary computer?

    Face it. Your need isn't that unique at all. You're just a normal user like 90% of the remaining.
