y'all stop saying fyodor has never looked so sincerely angry before. he has.

I know this because, and this is not an exaggeration, the vast majority of my manga revisits are to enjoy his expressions of anger, disdain, and malcontent. i shit you not, several of my bsd meta posts wholly unrelated to fyodor were written because I happened to notice something else while flipping through to imbibe fedya's hissy fits. I don't reread the manga when I do this, just those scenes, unless something else catches my attention.

anyway, stop disrespecting my beloved pastime.

The story of BASIC’s development began in 1963, when Kemeny and Kurtz, both mathematics professors at Dartmouth, recognized the need for a programming language that could be used by non-technical students. At the time, most programming languages were complex and required a strong background in mathematics and computer science. Kemeny and Kurtz wanted to create a language that would allow students from all disciplines to use computers, regardless of their technical expertise.

The development of BASIC was a collaborative effort between Kemeny, Kurtz, and a team of students, including Mary Kenneth Keller, John McGeachie, and others. The team worked tirelessly to design a language that was easy to learn and use, with a syntax that was simple and intuitive. They drew inspiration from existing programming languages, such as ALGOL and FORTRAN, but also introduced many innovative features that would become hallmarks of the BASIC language.

One of the key innovations of BASIC was its use of simple, English-like commands. Unlike other programming languages, which required users to learn complex syntax and notation, BASIC used commands such as “PRINT” and “INPUT” that were easy to understand and remember. This made it possible for non-technical users to write programs and interact with the computer, without needing to have a deep understanding of computer science.

BASIC was first implemented on the Dartmouth Time-Sharing System, a pioneering computer system that allowed multiple users to interact with the computer simultaneously. The Time-Sharing System was a major innovation in itself, as it allowed users to share the computer’s resources and work on their own projects independently. With BASIC, users could write programs, run simulations, and analyze data, all from the comfort of their own terminals.

The impact of BASIC was immediate and profound. The language quickly gained popularity, not just at Dartmouth, but also at other universities and institutions around the world. It became the language of choice for many introductory programming courses, and its simplicity and ease of use made it an ideal language for beginners. As the personal computer revolution took hold in the 1970s and 1980s, BASIC became the language of choice for many hobbyists and enthusiasts, who used it to write games, utilities, and other applications.

Today, BASIC remains a popular language, with many variants and implementations available. While it may not be as widely used as it once was, its influence can still be seen in many modern programming languages, including Visual Basic, Python, and JavaScript. The development of BASIC was a major milestone in the history of computer science, as it democratized computing and made it accessible to a wider range of people.

Struggling with keeping things organized while simultaneously enjoying coding and game dev is like walking into a house of mirrors. You just keep smacking into shit and can't find things you need half the time.

Oh let me grab that character sprite *smacks into wall* hey what was the color of that heading? *confidently walks into mirror* let me just fix this part, I think it was supposed to be-- *runs into small gremlin like being*

Help required to collect data for a project.

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on the development of an Indian Sign Language interpretation system and need your help in collecting sign language gestures for training purposes. I have not found proper data for training a model for this project. Any contributions are would be very helpful and will be used exclusively for this project. I have created a Google form where you can upload video demonstrations of the gestures. Sample videos are provided for your reference. If you're interested in contributing, please use the following link to fill the form

Any support will be very helpful. If you're unable to upload the video files in the form send them to the mail mentioned in the form.

Please reblog and share this post which would help me reach more people who would be able to help me with this.

I am not dead just severely busy! Days 74-109. I have so much to talk about this time!

So at work (Can't show that due to NDA) I've been bug chasing, and ultimately having to restructure many classes and methods to make one function work as intended.

Then for my C# final I'm still working on my .Net Maui project I finished the journals implementation, and added the event reporting function. I added the events to the journal entry for the day. If there are no entries yet it makes one. I am going to be using the library of microcharts that were used in xamarin (before Xamarin got depreciated into .Net Maui) now it can be used for .Net Maui. I'll be capturing data gathered in the journals to display on graphs to track progress in sleep disorders. At a later time I'll be getting it set up to grab information from sleep tracking apps on mobile.

In C++ my final is to make a game. I am making an adventure game where you can explore a village. It has lore, Easter eggs, and fun imagery (it's a console game unfortunately can't do Unreal). I have to change the code a bit but it has been fun to code!

I might have a contract role coming up for another game studio, so that's exciting.

My plans for the next few days is to get some functionality on the statistics tab in my Maui app, and get my C++ project more put together. At work I'm waiting on the senior dev to plan out how to fix the massive problem we have.

Before I resort to M*crosoft Learn, can anybody suggest me some free HTML/CSS online course that issues a certificate after an exam? I can finish it in the span of half a week and it's not something I actually need, but it would definitely make my life at home with my parents much easier if I could show them I'm doing something (studying languages doesn't count, since I'm not getting anywhere).

(Panicking a bit because I don't want to leave too much data and digital footprint behind...)

Svelte Basics: First Component

I'm going through the Svelte tutorial since it's very comprehensive and up-to-date.

I'm going on a bit of a tangent before I start this post, but I'm straying away from YouTube videos and Udemy courses when learning new programming languages and frameworks. YouTube videos are too fragmented to get good information from. Courses (and YouTube videos) are usually not up-to-date, rendering parts of them useless. Not to mention that you have to pay for free information that's packaged in a course, which is kind of scummy.

Anyway, I've gotten quite a bit further than just the introduction section of Svelte basics, but I don't want to overload myself (or readers) with information.

My First Svelte Component:

This section was relatively straightforward. There wasn't much new information, but I was hooked because of its simplicity. I personally love the idea of having the script tags be a place to define variables and attributes:

<script> let var = "a variable!" </script>

<p>I'm {var}</p>

The example above shows how dynamic attributes are used. I can basically define any variable (and states, but that'll be for the next post) between the script tags that can be used in HTML.

This may seem mundane to programmers experienced in Svelte, but I think it gives really good insight into the philosophy behind Svelte. It's clear that they wanted to keep the language simple and easy to use, and I appreciate that.

As I mentioned in my introductory post, I have a background in React, which has a reputation for being convoluted. Well, maybe that's just my perception, but how Svelte is written is a breath of fresh air!

I look forward to making more posts about what I learn and my attempts at understanding it.

Until next time!

Which Programming Languages Are Top Choices for App Development in 2024?

[python-programming-language]

SoloLearn was one of my favourite learning platforms for programming languages on the internet in 2023. I think my power, endurance and success time were awesome.

Amazon app store doesn't let's you delete apps 😡

So I got to know that Amazon app store doesn't let you delete apps that you have published !! And now I can't even update my old web apps there !!! I have 7 apps in Amazon app store and I want to remove them because of poor developer experience of Amazon, but get this?!! They will not let you even remove apps. To get it published you have to dance to their drums!! To get it removed you have to dance to their drums!!! I HATE AMAZON !!!

Days 47-50 of coding everyday for a year... It's been stressful

So I worked on with the image on top a game in Unity. I made a reverse murder mystery visual novel for Brackeys game jam. The bottom was me getting a feel for C++ still. Tbh I'm still kind of lost with it, but I'm trying. (it's just so different from C# in some ways). I'm also doing a small coding challenge every morning after I've had my coffee with C# since that's the language I'm going to base most of my career off of (I can do Java/Kotlin, and C++ but C# is special)

Here's a link to the game...

The next few days I'll be working on more C++, and my .Net Maui project. I also might be practicing some coding interview questions/tests since the summer is coming up soon (I did make an impressive fizzbuzz with a twist)
