fucking yep

My family is picking up on the backlash to that sentiment, sloooooooooooooowly

CS doesn't involve knowledge of computer parts other than how they function in particular. Just tell them to find someone versed in IT or whatnot. x3

IT is a waste of time for programmers.

In regards to earlier: GC tends to be pretty resource heavy.

But GC is pretty essential.

Also, yeah, having a hard-on for programming in C++ is a bit detrimental, while it's absolutely essential to have fundamental knowledge of lower-level programs and how any language you're currently using that's higher level will be parsed and compiled into at a base level (for optimization purposes) holding onto only working in C++ just kills your ability to program something in a short/efficient period of time.

C++ is very high level dude.

The only edge other languages have is the easy-to-install 3rd party modules.

Who knows, maybe C++23 will have modules.

MS has been pushing for their own horrible package manager.

And I'll take RAII over GC any day.

GC is a tool for only one kind of resource, memory. RAII is more general. You can start to think about various things as resources that can be managed.

Well, I don't know about you, but I don't know many people that actually work directly with assembly. @DanielKO

I only work with it when I've reverse-engineering keygen mes.

``` L = L1;
L <<= 16;
L |= L2;
L >>>= 0;
R = R1;
R <<= 16;
R |= R2;
R >>>= 0;``` I remember this one.

And then my code comments like this.

I only ever do littl snippets of inline stuff for specific functionality on embedded stuff now

but even that is super super rare

*ASM↑

I was the man with ARM32 ASM back in the day

There was the logic for the mask.

It was a series of numbers that would follow under those specs.

I could have made a bitmask to clean it up, but yeah.

It's expanded logic.

The keygen after that was encoded with time hashes.

On blowfish.

That was... a hard one.

Has anyone ever used Radare2 for reverse engineering?

If so I would like some assistance

fixing a computer is 90% google tbh

unless whatever is broken is just the person being retarded

like my Barber who thought her computer was broken because it told her to repeat her password and she didn't know what that meant <:think_woke:378717098681171988>

people are technologically illiterate af

@Ruggwain exactly my dude

Legendary barber again

She called because she's friends with my mother

Apparently she asked someone about getting a new computer

And he told her to get something with 'window' on it
