which makes it the big gay
Today, I'm tackling this
https://bitbucket.org/libtcod/libtcod/overview
And this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_Studio
They don't like each other >_>
visual studio gives me aids
says the roach
Isn't time for you to go to bed?
nein
@Legiondude is there a reason you have to use Visual Studio?
seems like it'd be easier to just code in python in something like Visual Studio Code
I'm most familiar with VS
And it's the only setup I've got on my box that has a compiler
you coding on windows?
if you use python you don't need to worry about a C++ compiler, and you'll be able to write code a lot faster
you don't need to worry about all the low level junk
I don't have experience with Python, thus the problem
There's an equivalent library for C#, but the documentation for that hasn't been maintained in some time
python would be a good language to learn if you get time
what do you use to compile python anyway?
nothing!
lol
wot
.....
all the bugs happen at runtime
the way God intended
Python is all dynamic. It requires extensive runtime support, like Java or C#.
If you restrict what features you use, you can compile into a native program, using RPython.
"Restricted Python"
Then you can do silly things, like PyPy. It's a Python implementation written in Python. And it's faster than the standard Python interpreter.
Cython is probably the fastest way to do Python, though it's a little different.
Python written in Python <:think_madpepe:378717098630971395>
But what about Python written in Python written in Python written in Python written in Python?
Sounds silly, but it's legit. Performance very close to C code.
Because it's far easier (for Python programmers) to write a Python interpreter in Python. PyPy also supports stackless Python, and a JIT compiler (which is what gives the extra performance.)
have to pick OS Template for virtual private server( idk what OS template means)
should i just go with windows?
general use/educational--I was going to work on coding some personal or business webpages and set up a Doom or Quake server
also WTF service is that, there's distros that are way out of support on that list
of those the easiest to use for that would be ubuntu 16
Windows server requires licenses and isn't very easy to manage remotely
you may want to just set up a server on a spare machine if you have one if you aren't used to remotely administering things through SSH or things like that
true, have spare PC but space is an issue
