@12bitfloat Also since you mentioned specifically DECENT, the K&R book has a hashtable implementation that is EXTREMELY simple (like, stupidly simple), and it's pretty decent, the string hashing function could be better but it's easy to replace with a better performing one, and it's still decent enough to work well.

@12bitfloat I have written hashmaps though. Of varrying degrees of Complexity, and in multiple languages, C included.

@retoor You too are talking about VERY different cells, so while you're correct to some degree it doesn't apply to him

@12bitfloat I don't mean it in a condescending way, but I wouldn't say a HashMap is really complex to write, and I'm not really good at C

Ummm

dnf/emerge/pacman/apt/flatpak(/etc') search [Software Name]

sudo dnf/emerge/pacman/apt/flatpak(/etc') install [Package Name]

95% of the times...

It's really simple actually, most people REALLY don't wanna think, they would really prefer someone else do the thinking for them. So when a system is suggested that does the thinking and decisions for you, most people would be on board. What does the system do? How does it do it? Why does it do it? People would REALLY prefer NOT to know and not to think about it. So the system does whatever it wants and follows whatever agenda it has.

If you're already doing that, make devrant archives, in case the site goes down since it's not being maintained anymore

@retoor You KNOW I'm conservative lmao, I'm literally fighting in a war, that's already pretty 'right' leaning, I believe in god, you know that lol

But it's not about that, Non-Woke doesn't mean conservative, "I don't want politics in my distro" is not a conservative take, there are a lot of liberals who share the same opinion. Just because wokies are *usually* leftist, doesn't mean leftists are woke or that they like them. I know a LOT of left-leaning people who absolutely despise wokeism, some of them are gay and left-leaning and dislike woke culture.

@D-4got10-01 Meritocracy all the way!

@MammaNeedHummus Okay???..
Literally just had a weird and funny embarrassing moment and thought it'd be funny to share.
The hell is your problem lmao

@electrineer The fuck?

Wait why?

Human ingenuity isn't what gives human value.
Holy shit that would be such a horrible take

@retoor And the second description is still just a bunch of text with no points. It's trying to meta analyze me through post lengths instead of the actual post contents? I don't get why.
But yeah, a bunch of text and it still said nothing.

@retoor Bruh he's literally married.

@retoor Wow, I've never raid so much "nothing" slop before xD
But that's AIs for you I guess.
It literally wrote whole 4 paragraphs without avtually saying *anything*
Sounds like corpo speech, where someone's just trying to sound smart/sophisticated so they just use a LOT of a formal and smart sounding words lmao

I wonder what you two will have to say about it: @retoor @jestdotty
I'd think to have interesting takes/opinions about it

From what I understood it's considerably more efficient, thus costing less and being easier to train(=needing much smaller dataset), was created with a fraction of the funds OpenAI has, made some new(?) learning algorythm that learns much faster and from less data than GPT.
Also it's fully open source, both the code, and the model/dataset.

Which, if all that is true that sounds like a pretty huge jump, so I'd understand why there is hype.
I didn't dig into it too much tho, all I said above is from hearsay(so don't trust me too much).

Plus, not having a way to handle timezones is NOT a strength... No idea why you'd give that as an example of a good date system.
I don't know Swift but it sounds hard to believe it's dates can't handle timezones, but if it's actually true, than it's a huge downside.
Congradulations, you now can't use the language to do any network stuff or logging stuff or database stuff or etc'

Because they're old. The ways dates have been handled by programmers have changed so many times after learning from mistakes.
It's complicated to handle because time IS a complicated matter (e.g. https://gist.github.com/timvisee/...).
C# and Java don't have multiple types and ways that handle time. They have ONE way and a bunch of outdated and deprecated ones.

What died in the forest that retoor of all people shits on AI suddenly xD
As for the 1/0/yes/no, you can actually explain to it that it's responses are going to be piped into a program and the program expects certain inputs.
GPT tends to behave more and give more accurate responses if you actually explain to it what's going on and what are you trying to do, hope this helps! ^_^

Huh, I should buy a thermos cup
I have a habit of getting distracted and forgetting my tea for a few hours

But yeeeee
My boy @Ranchonyx mentioned
A fucking genius <3

I meean, skill doesn't really have much to do with fame.
Fame is mostly Charisma, skill helps ofc, but Charisma and knowing how "sell" your skill is the main part. Charisma + Skill = Godlike, tons of Charisma with little Skill works almost just as much, and tons of Skill with no Charisma just doesn't work.

(Talking specifically about YouTube, Social Media and stuff like that ofc)

@Lensflare Simple? If you use keyboard shortcuts of any kind you must've encountered situations where you press a key and for one reason or another the thing just doesn't happen(Weird angle, weak press, too fast, PC just happened to hickup on that moment, etc), so you press it again. Except with saving you don't get a visual/auditory confirmation that you did indeed save, so you press multiple times in case it didn't save.

@Lensflare Me, I do it, I always press CTRL+S like 5 times instinctively

@retoor Oooh, that's a nice one

And here's the Hebrew-style version:

@retoor

@retoor Not what I said, I just said that I never claimed I was training. Just not sure where you got the training part.
