This is something thats kinda impossible in a class that requires technology. A solution one of my professors came up with was having frequent handwritten tests worth less points.

Programming on a handwritten test is nothing new, but he also made us use gdb to debug a program written in assembly on paper… which did work better than I thought it would.

I’ve seen this blog before but are we really taking ui advice from a guy who has an all yellow site and thinks that syntax highlighting is useless?

wtf thats a real thing? I thought my physics professor was just joking when he said spintronics once

Tbh theres probably not going to be water in utah by the time the data center finishes construction. And utah will likely be uninhabitable.

I agree. Something about llms where they use strange wording like the last sentence or “its not just x its y” type phrases

I program on pc. Programming on phone is pretty terrible, I have spent a decent amount of time doing this and you kinda need to accept that a lot of regular dev programs on termux don’t work. And you also have to accept using the terminal for everything

Being able to program with a mouse is pretty convinient for things like debugging

The valve index has lower ppd though (quest 2 has 17 ppd, index has 14 ppd). The index controllers aren’t as precise at gripping things and they don’t work with sweat on them.

Standalone headsets have better support on linux also than the index.

I myself bought an index headset to switch from quest 2 and its not a better headset. At most its a side grade that costs way more, and wouldn’t have been worth it other than getting base stations for the base station ecosystem.

The quest 3 has like 25 ppd (pixels per degree) and the human limit is like at least 60 ppd. So your friend needs some glasses

The index is also not as good as the quest 2. Although if a valve index full kit were selling for 233.3 dollars (1/3 of 700) that is honestly worth it solely for the basestations to use with full body tracking. Basestations tend to sell for 300 usd a pair.

I’m not seeing any index full kits selling for that cheap though, at a minimum 550 for the full kit.

Phones have already came with ai processors for a long time, specifically for speech recognition and camera features, its not advertised because its from before the bubble started

I still use deviantart occasionally and the ui has gotten worse every year. Even ignoring the impact ai art has had on the platform, search doesn’t work anymore, groups don’t work anymore, its impossible to find things you are looking for

Ok so there are 3 microsoft products called copilot now. Surely this won’t confuse anyone

Literally every VR headset released this year is over 1k usd. Only meta (and now valve) care about budget headsets

Its a standalone headset that runs steamos.

Wikipedia already has a button where you can go to another language’s version of that page where you can then machine translate it yourself.

It already is, they just put guardrails to prevent it from making adult content before

more legible than a ssd for humans

I heard mods of big subreddits can get basically sponsored by big companies and go to events. Half the pc gaming subreddits have what are basically ad posts pinned by the mods.

Honestly I forgot porn was banned in Utah (id verification) and I live in Utah. Its still relatively easy to view sites without vpn or id

I don’t understand what I’m reading. Is it just like datacenters in africa or did they make an alternative to http/https
