Topic: Athiest's No Afterlife/Heaven?

Posted: 10/29/09 03:02 AM

Forum: General

1. Your body rots in the ground
2. Your brain rots in the ground

3. WTF happens to your conscious?

Seeing as it's hard to define "life" in the first place I don't even want to try defining "consciousness". I know I have one, you don't know for sure that I have one and I don't know for sure that you have one.

I don't believe any of the religions have it right.
I don't believe any of them will ever have it right.
I don't believe science will ever explain a consciousness.
I believe science can explain nearly everything else.

When I fall asleep it's sorta like my conscious skips ahead in time. It's impossible to imagine what would happen when you fall asleep for good (die). It seems fairly obvious to me that my conscious is attached to my physical brain. So when that goes away what does the conscious do? One possibility is that it detaches itself from the body and finds a new physical object to attach to. A new baby, an alien on a distant planet, a computer, a robot. Sounds a bit like reincarnation. Although it's entirely possible there's a separate realm of existence for consciousnesses. Who knows it's pointless to think about while we're here.

Atheism falls apart when you try to figure out what a conscious is.
Religion falls apart when it tries to explain anything with certainty.

Therefore, I consider myself unaffiliated. I don't know if there's a higher being or not. I don't know how to explain a consciousness. I don't care, I'm enjoying my time here on Earth so why bother thinking about what happens after death?

The flaw in any organized school of thought is that it states its beliefs as fact. You can't prove anything so both extremes (atheist, religious) are WRONG. Well I can't say that for sure, they COULD be right, after all.

But I don't care. The universe is a wonderful place, enjoy it while you're here.

Because SendMessage takes two long parameters, wParam and lParam

Try using a unicode string (wchar_t, and std:wstring)

still doesnt make sense to me that you're casting a pointer type (char*) to an integer type (long)

Topic: What's Your Favorite Pizza Place?

Posted: 10/26/09 01:19 AM

Forum: General

Marc Anthony's (Onset, MA, very tiny town, near wareham)

It's in the town in cape cod where my family has had a vacation home since the 50s. The pizza place has been there for like 30 years, I've been going to it since I was born.

Nobody ever believes that it's the best pizza place in the world when I first tell them, since "best in the world" is such a large claim, but the second they try it they agree.

Fuck now I'm craving it and no other place has ever come close IMO.

Also if you say dominos or pizza hit or other chain place then you need to go away forever and get taste buf implants since that shit is so disgusting I wouldn't even eat it drunk.

Forum: Programming

I'll top your parallel processing cluster heuristic A* sorting algorithm with one of my own:

The quantum imaginary 4D parallel heuristic sweep-cache mutex sort.

It uses 4-dimensional imaginary numbers and quantum computing to preprocess all possible sorted lists in constant time then distributes the table amongst multiple processors so that they can all mutex the list and sort in sub-constant time.

It's all experimental at the moment but you can google the papers on it if you wish

Pet Peeves about Windows
I'm a developer so I'm going to go about this from a developer standpoint and not bother covering the "viruses, right click, and games" arguments you people so like to latch on to.

1. DLLs
FUCK DLLS seriously. It's an outdated piece of shit way to reuse executable code. If you have a different or wrong version of the DLL in question, your program will still run it'll just give random idiotic errors, crash, and burn. So... What DLLs does my program need to run? I'll just stick them in the same folder as the exe and all is well. Using SDL... and openAL... and openGL... and that's about it. OH WAIT NO visual studio links with it's standard c/c++ library too, which unfortunately isn't a standard header on windows and has a different version for every version of visual studio and 40 different versions for each type of processor and junk and it's stupid. I think I solved it after a while, but DLLs are hell to organize, especially when you have multiple versions of the same dll on your computer (and programs need a specific one to run, not any one)

OSX has a much more graceful option, "frameworks". It's a package format where it stores data about the current and past versions of a specific dynamic library, much more organized than microsoft's crappy DLL system. Plus, .app packages on OSX are way nicer than windows .exes. I can package all my resources and frameworks and junk into one nice .app package. It's a glorified folder, but when you open it it runs the program inside instead. No need to distribute the game as an exe, a folder of resources, and a list of DLLs to install, just zip the app and the user never knows that it is actually a package.

2. Xcode / Visual Studio
Visual studio has a better debugger. Too bad the good version costs like a crapload of money.

I use Xcode on OSX. It's a cleaner, nicer coding environment and it's FREE.

Visual studio takes FOREVER when you try to open a text file with it. That's expected for a project file and junk, since it's a massive bloaty program, but it's a pain to double click a small .cpp file and have it spend 2 minutes starting up.

Xcode takes some time to open up a project file too, but here's the kicker: when I just click a raw cpp or h file to open, it starts up near-instantly (and doesn't load any of the project management IDE junk, basically just acts as a lightweight text editor). That's huge, and a really awesome feature to have when i'm working on small junk that doesn't need an IDE for compiling.

3. Screenshot tool

print screen is way outdated and retarded. On OSX, I hit cmd-shift-3 to screenshot the whole screen and save it to the desktop as a png (no ugly copy-paste junk). BETTER YET, I hit cmd-shift 4 and get to select what to capture by dragging a box. Or, instead of dragging a box, I hit space, and it'll let me capture 1 window, no background objects, and is nice enough to put the alpha transparency drop shadow on the window too (see: http://www.closuregame.com/Log/screensho ts/2009/08_AUG/Picture%2019.png )
(this is built in OSX stuff)

4. Spotlight. I type what I want to search for on my hardrive, it takes about a second to find EVERYTHING (searches in files, in filenames, etc). On windows, I hit the search button and the dog with the magnifying glass pops up and talks to me. I tell him what I want to search for, then walk away and go cook dinner. I come back and he's found 2 things, neither of which are the one I want.

5. Everything else. There's a ton of hidden OS usability things on the computer. I don't even realize how much I use these features till I move to windows, and suddenly the tiny features I use all the time are gone.

6. Windows API, Cocoa API

BOTH are retarded in my opinion

Cocoa: void NSApplicationPoolShittiness(NSString*&&*
** nuts, NSShitballs n)

Windows API: HANDLE WinGetHandleToKeyboardKeyCapitalA(LPVOID HANDLE, WCHAR_T, LONG_INTEGER, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, 0, NULL, NULL, 0);

Topic: Zipped (unix) executable

Posted: 10/23/09 09:08 PM

Forum: Programming

I have a unix executable file (on OSX 10.5) (called sample)
I zip the unix executable file (zip stuff.zip sample)
I send the zip over ichat to a friend (running OSX 10.6)
He unzips it
sample no longer has execute permissions (-rw-r--r--)

doing chmod +x sample allows the file to be run

How can I make it so the unix file gets unzipped with execute permissions, so people don't have to run command line junk to run it?

Topic: Midi to Wav

Posted: 10/23/09 04:22 PM

Forum: Programming

WAV:
stores the raw audio waveform. Pretty much nothing special you need to do with it to get it to make noise, just send it to the audio card and it'll play

MIDI:
Stores (essentially) the "sheet music" for a song. When to play what note, for how long, at what volume, and which instrument. A wav file needs 44100 samples per second to make audio (at 4 bytes per sample, that's 176kb per second). A midi file is much more compressed because it's not storing sound, but instructions on how to recreate that sound.

Of course, most programs have their own "midi sound generators". A midi file can be read in by 2 different programs and recreated with completely different instruments in each one (although most try to find the closest match).

As a result, you should really have the program making the midi file export a wav or mp3, otherwise it will sound different
