this is a perfectly good time to bring up that our upcoming indie jRPG (https://t.co/k9khoi3IFt) has a VERY silly Shai-Hulud pun boss

@trevam98 @stackoverflo_ looks like it still exists in my dms but its unfriended everyone.

@stackoverflo_ Dude congrats!

@HPGal12 Can confirm, weddings are hard.
We went the easy route and got married during covid, didn't need to have a reception and got to do more pictures in front of mountains instead.

The Great Wave off Kanagawa, created by Hokusai in 1831, is one of the world's most famous paintings.

But why are there more than 100 different versions of it in galleries all around the world?

Because it isn't actually a painting...

(Thread) In the first What If? book, I answered a question about cooking a steak by dropping it from space. At one point, I commented—jokingly!—that if anyone put a steak in a hypersonic wind tunnel to gather better data, I’d love to see the video.

Well, I have good news.

BREAKING: C++26 will add named auto. For example, instead of
auto n = 42;
you'll be able to write:
int n = 42;

IMPORTANT UNICODE NOTICE:

The character "ꙮ" (U+A66E) is being updated in version 15.0.0.

Because it doesn't have enough eyes. It needs to have three more eyes.

@stackoverflo_ Gotta be careful what you wish for

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@olafurw Gotta milk it for what it's worth

Did you know that every 4th Koi fish is fake?

It's to help against predators.

The A, B and C Koi are real. Then there is the D Koi.

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@mechangel18 @delaneykingrox Just switch to ternary instead!

@olafurw Is that why their lumberyard game engine went open source/free? Are they changing how they monetize it?

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@HPGal12 @stackoverflo_ Yeah I don't remember if I did it in C++ or Java, might have been Java, they had us do a lot of the classes in Java.

Honestly these days I'd prefer if they taught Kotlin to Java I think but of course I still use both for work.

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@HPGal12 @stackoverflo_ Well I'm not sure if that's the course with a book or not, I do remember those cs classes often having just a paper booklet or pdf now that you mention it.

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@HPGal12 @stackoverflo_ Yes the pain is real. Also I want to say there was some other metric they had us learn in data structures that I'm not quite remembering, like it wasn't an o but some kind of Greek letter. That stuff confused the heck out of me.
I might still have my book for it somewhere

[Coolcoder360 @coolcoder360]

@stackoverflo_ @HPGal12 Agree, I remember data structures being quite something, especially if they expect you to find the big o or little o of each structure, or other such things.

I remember one project they had was implementing like a text based game with a graph structure, that was fun.

@denvercoder @browniepoints @CooperCodes I saw a different tweet somewhere that GitHub copilot was suggesting pieces of code verbatim from projects with licenses that required adding the license onto any derivative works.

I think part of the issue is that not all code on GitHub is free for all use including commercial.
