Re: General discussion chat I've used Python and I've never had any problems personally. I do plan on getting into Lua though.

Re: General discussion chat My computer is fully restored and operating how it should . Well I've learned my lesson. Don't copy and remove what you're not familiar with (especially with "Cut" :/ ). Now I have to get all of my games and programs reinstalled.
Re: General discussion chat I added extra cooling on laptop. IT WORKS TOO. i had a empty optical drive bay that i put another heastspreader in. then i connected it to the original heatsink/pipes. currently with Google chrome and 2 other programs open, im at 44c. That was the idle temperature of it before!
Re: General discussion chat For school i program with vb.net with ms visual studio 2012 making it my primary language at the moment, although i would much prefer to be using c#. I would 100% agree that if you do not indent your code as well as add at least a bit of commenting then you are bad and you should feel bad. Adding those two things takes next to no time in notepad so it should be just as easy in whatever IDE that you use. Many will do it for you which is ideal. People who dont use decent variable names are also bad and should also feel bad. If you do none of the above then you are a true monster
Re: General discussion chat AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA man i knew they were bad, didn't know they were THAT bad
Re: General discussion chat VB.NET, also an ugly abomination, might aswell use C# anyway But yeah, I dont get the lack of indentation. When I want a plain old text editor rather than a full blown IDE I use GEdit or Nano, both of which do automatic maintaining of indentation and tab to space conversion and vice versa (as well as mass removal of spaces to dedent). I don't care how you indent the code whether it be 4 spaces, a tab, 7 spaces, 3 or what as long as its consistent (python again doesnt mind, will recognise anything as long as the entire document is 100% consistent, convention is 4 spaces, google use 3 spaces, heard of both 2 and 6 being used by various companies, of course most languages dont have indentation forced as part of language). Curly brace location (on relevant languages), again, consistency is key. Variable names. Pick a scheme, stick to it. var1 is alot harder to debug than iPersonAge when using an integer to store the age of a person, although I'd use personAge rather than iPersonAge. person_age or PersonAge would equally be valid if consistent. I capitalise&underscore constants though so it would become PERSON_AGE if it was constant. It takes no additional time to make your code readable, its not even for the aid of others, its for the developer too.
Re: General discussion chat There is a thing around the web called coding messages from my past self. Has stuff like "dear future me, I was drunk in lines 400-427. God knows what it means" and "if you're opening this for class, remember mitochrodia is the powerhouse of the cell" IRCchats is also a hilarious twitter.
Re: General discussion chat Making a room booking system for my A-Level computing project. It uses a Microsoft access sql database because that's what my school teaches meaning i cant modify the database from home because Microsoft will only let you change it if you have access installed. Although you can add and remove records from the database just fine. But we had to code all of the data adapter etc stuff ourselves since apparently you loose marks for using the Microsoft wizard, honestly it wasn't too bad. I don't mind vb.net, it does a pretty good job at what it does and is very similar to c#.net in how it functions, it just looks a bit more like the English language which is why the school uses it.
Re: General discussion chat technically were already using a street legal like game (or at least eventually to be) http://www.beamng.com/threads/597-Game-modes?p=7409&viewfull=1#post7409
Re: General discussion chat So, today I bought this. http://www.dollartree.com/household...-Stereo-Speakers/500c548c548p341469/index.pro Testing the frequency response by ear now. EDIT: I hear nothing below 250Hz, and they are quite quiet. Also bought a pair of earbuds for a replacement for my Monoprice 8323's while they get RMA'd. I had to resolder a wire internally, and the earpads are all ripped up and flaked.
