Comment on: My Most Important Project Was A Bytecode Interpreter

You could just learn Assembly, you'll learn this stuff and it'll probably be more useful.

Comment on: 400,000 GitHub repositories, 1 billion files, 14 terabytes of code: Spaces or Tabs?

Spaces are cancer tbh.

Comment on: [Poll] Tabs or Spaces?

Nah man, I hate modal editors, they just slow me down and I won't be able to remember all those keybinds. Whatever, I'll just code it into nano at some point if I can be bothered.

Comment on: [Poll] Tabs or Spaces?

There's probably a way, I just can't be bothered to look for it tbh, nowadays I'm using the fork of Nano I wrote (it adds line numbering), but sometimes I use Atom.

Comment on: [Poll] Tabs or Spaces?

Tab, sometimes my editor replaces my tabs with spaces for me. But I want tabs dammit! I see no reason to be pressing space 4 times just to indent, slows you down too much.

Comment on: The 1.44MB FAT32 floppy disk

I'm 15 and I've seen and used floppy disks before (when I was ~5 my dad gave me a few and I liked them because they were colourful) so he must be younger than me, then again, he says he's at work...

Comment on: Have Software Developers Given Up? (an interesting read and so are the comments)

This is the result of letting people who hate math program.

I hate math, but I'm a good programmer and pretty alright at math. I think the issue is more an issue of letting people who hate programming program, because they think they'll be 'the next Steve Jobs' even though Steve Jobs didn't really ever program. They never truly immerse themselves in it, because they're not trying to write impressive, efficient and robust code, they're trying to become rich as quick as possible.

Comment on: [OC] Online tool for taking microphone input and turning it into note name, pitch and octave. Great for tuning instruments or practicing singing.

This is awesome because I can't sing!

Fixed, I just removed the jump all together since it'll just continue onto main anyways

Comment on: App Uses Kids' Obsession With Phones to Teach Coding

This isn't really going to teach you coding, it's useful for people who can't code though because it lets them make their own 'programs'

It's also used in almost all supercomputers

Comment on: I hope one day I'll live in a country where I have freedom to write any code I like without fearing.

Doesn't matter, the thing has 876 forks, I'm sure you could rebuild the whole thing from the forks alone :D

Comment on: Cicada 3301 might be back, we need someone who knows ticker tape programming, punchcard programming or FORTRAN

Cicada 3301 is an internet puzzle that happens roughly every 2 years, no one knows what's at the end of it and no one's heard anything from the people who completed it.We managed to decode the message at the bottom and it says something similar to what is said in all the Cicada puzzles:

"WE 0RE LOOKING FOR 0 HIGHLY INTELLIGENT INDIVIDU0L. TO FIND THEM, WE H0VE DEVISED 0 TEST. IN THESE NUMBERS THERE 0RE 0 HIDDEN MESS0GE. FIND IT, 0ND IT WILL LE0D YOU ON THE RO0D TO FINDING US. WE LOOK FORW0RD TO MEETING THE FEW WHO WILL M0KE IT 0LL THE W0Y THROUGH. GOOD LUCK"

Ticker tape programming and punchcard programming is how programs were written in the olden days, by punching holes in the correct place (each places represented something).

FORTRAN is a very old programming language from back when punch card programming was a thing

Which is the bit that you're "wat"ing at? Cicada, ticker tape, punchcard or FORTRAN?

I think he means a Python implementation.

Comment on: Teaching a computer to complete Super Mario World with neuroevolution [x-post gaming]

And think about the malicious applications, imagine AI getting so optimised that someone could a Raspberry Pi with a pentesting AI and just plugged it into a corporate network and watch it wreck havoc!

Comment on: Teaching a computer to complete Super Mario World with neuroevolution [x-post gaming]

That's actually quite a neat idea... I did not think about that, but what if the AI goes rogue and starts defacing public websites or hacking the NSA or some stuff!? It would have to be physically isolated (like, can't even be in a VM, has to be on a dedicated, isolated from every network, machine) to keep it contained

Comment on: Teaching a computer to complete Super Mario World with neuroevolution [x-post gaming]

Yeah, but it might even discover bugs like the credits warp if given enough time which could be quite interesting

SethBling is awesome, I'd love to have this running for like 10 years on a crazy powerful build with the emulator running as fast as the CPU can take it, to see just how smart it can get
