Apple fan boi here.

I also love to shit on Apple.

Some of the big reveals are so dumb. They just give things a different name to blow your mind.

“Omg! They invited spatial computing!!!”

summerof69 ,

It’s not dumb because it works, doesn’t it? Even haters spread the news.

survivalmachine , in was this not allowed before?

This was not allowed before. Until just recently, the technology didn’t exist to place icons anywhere in the grid. They would automatically smoosh up into orderly rows starting at the top-left with no gaps between icons. Apple is continuing to develop cutting edge innovation, though, and now you will be able to leave entire rows and columns empty, or any specific icon space you choose!

Seems like a trivial programming task even my junior noob ass can handle.

casmael ,

Actually it’s because apps aren’t neutrally buoyant in the OS, they naturally float to the top

Starayo ,

No wonder it took so long, must’ve been a nightmare to get every different app neutral, what with their differing weights.

Natanael ,

They had to invent whole new algorithms to he able to give the binaries of all apps the exact same Hamming weight

Dear god, someone needs to make a physics based home screen. It would be utter hell. When you move, it all gets tossed around.

Particle simulation home screen

There’s probably a live wallpaper for that.

I mean apps icons that are rigid bodies that are simulated

Oh oh. Gotcha. Imagine not being able to make an emergency phone call until it settled down.

I’m a teen, and I don’t even know how to git. I’m learning, tho school does everything in it’s power to stop me.

Do it.

All the cool kids learn things outside of school.

Especially for anything tech related, don’t wait for a school to teach you, you’ll have way more fun and learn so much more by yourself.

At least until college, then it depends…

UnRelatedBurner ,

Thanks, for the motivation. But I ment it like I don’t have time because of school. I have exams due in a week and I have to study 10+ topics in grammar, literature and history. For a week I’m like a zombie.

Wake up at noon, hate life, study bullshit, hate life w/ a numb brain, play some games caz I can’t anymore, it’s 4am so let’s sleep.

I’d like a job for the summer, and I should be working on contacts, or something I can show to my employer, not on literature.

Croquette ,

In what grade are you? If you aren’t college/university level, this is fucking bullshit

UnRelatedBurner ,

I downloaded a pdf to search for the british equivalent. closest thing is further education, “work-based” college, but I’m not at the part-time-work part yet.

School system is so fucked can’t even translate it. Best I could get out of online translators is “technical college”. But the whole point is, that it’s not a college, idk.

Croquette ,

I get what you are saying, we have something similar here. But even then, the workload was never as big as it was for college/university.

Good luck

Funkytom467 ,
@Funkytom467@lemmy.world avatar

I get that, went through it myself and i’ve known plenty of people in that case.

What got me into programming is learning c++ to make games. I started the summer after high school when i didn’t have any work left.

But my programming skills became useful for my job though. If it’s not for you I get you would rather look for a job.

Good luck with your work my friend.

UnRelatedBurner ,

Thanks, my A plan is to get thru this hell. I’d only like a summer job. Still, I feel like I should be able to show something up. I started AoC 2023 back in december, day 13 bricked me, and I haven’t gotten a 2nd wind yet, and time is running out.

If I can ask for advice… I heard with leetcode (I’m not doing it, just heard) that if I don’t know the solution for something in 30 minutes, I should look it up. Does this apply to AoC? As I remember spending 8 hours on these puzzles and feeling awesome when I finally came up with a solution that worked. But I’ve gave day 13 two afternoons and I still can’t figure it out. I have ideas, but it’ll take like a week to code and test all of them, chances are they won’t even work. I know that two half days since december isn’t very dedicated, but I don’t know where tf did these 3 months go, I actually can’t remember what happened in jan-feb lol.

Funkytom467 ,
@Funkytom467@lemmy.world avatar

Well i’ve never really done AoC or test alike myself. So i don’t know the difficulty or amount of time you should spend.

To me if you have ideas but just not elegant ones, you could always do them. Despite being wrong or ugly they’ll still teach you something, especially if they’re complex.

But if the idea gets too hard to do, to time consuming for your little time, or if you’re really stuck, you can look at the solution.

Just remember that a solution isn’t a great way to learn, at best it will teach you what you need to learn more about.

flashgnash ,

Best way to learn at a surface level is randoms on the internet and Google imo

Bonus points if you get it wrong publicly because then everyone will jump on the chance to point out the things you do wrong

Catsrules ,

Git some.

UnRelatedBurner ,

I once reverted all local changes when trying to learn branches. It’s a dangerous game.

Never use --force or --hard and it’s very difficult to use data that you have committed.

At the age of 8 he enrolled at The University of South Alabama, where he received in 1994 a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and is listed in the Guinness Book as the world’s youngest university graduate at the age of ten. At the age of 14 he obtained a master’s degree in chemistry at Middle Tennessee State University. At age 18 he obtained his master’s degree in computer science at Vanderbilt University.

JDubbleu ,

I often use that as a source of encouragement rather than defeat. My two favorite sports are snowboarding and muay thai which are filled with people who’ve been practicing before they formed memories. If a child is better than me then I’m almost certainly capable of becoming that good with continued practice. Even if it takes years it’s something to aspire to regardless of the relative age difference. I was one of those kids who was way better than a lot of people on a dirt bike. I was put on a dirt bike at the age of 4 and don’t even remember learning, so it’s not like it’s a fair comparison. Just run your own race and aspire to be like those around you.

    drolex , in Flux pricing

    So, you’re a restaurant and when people come for restauranting at restauranting times, you charge them more, because people should actually come restauranting outside restauranting times.

    That is, er, innovative.

    I don’t know how it is in the US, but people will typically go for lunch at lunch times where I live and if a fast food restaurant starts considering this kind of shit, it will promptly go out of business.

    dangblingus ,

    Unless they change the metrics by which they price their menu items. If the price is lowered, and surge pricing makes a 12 noon burger $0.50 more than usual, but an off-peak burger costs less than the OG price (but enough to still turn a profit), then Wendy’s might actually see more money if they can undercut other FF joints.

    Anticorp ,

    Corporations aren’t trustworthy enough to handle all the data they’ve been given with modern computing. Of course they’re going to pick it apart and try to figure out a way to profit off it, customer service, ethics, and common sense be damned!

    This is the reason why I started to block Internet access for all devices that don’t need it for their normal operation. I don’t trust the „disable updates“ function at all.

    AllonzeeLV , in Such benefits. Very wow. Praise the almighty job creators.

    This made me laugh because the HR lady at my company made an email about such “resources” recently.

    HR is corporate gestapo, anything you say can and will be used against you, but by all means share your inner demons with them.

    NatakuNox ,
    @NatakuNox@lemmy.world avatar

    Only talk to HR about benefits and raises. Everything else seek outside representation before speaking to HR

    Yes yes fun fun. In real life, I have some pretty huge batteries and there is a handle on each but the handle is a non-conductive rope.
