Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Why... why are these nested.... owwww my brain.

Oh my god. Its soo bad, it keeps getting worse the more I look at it...

haha, it's actually from experience of trying to undo what AI did to my code. And I'm just a casual hobbyist in scripting languages.

I still have a to-do to unstick how it is using a lambda to set a bool value inside a dict with only one key, when any normal human would just do

  bool_var = my_func()

  def my_func()
       [code goes here]
        if x:
             return true
        else:
              return false

it's really been a lesson in how I can't even use AI to learn, let alone actually produce.

Lately I've been running into this wild thing where... they just cannot fucking understand nested arrays.

Here, we have an array called points, its made of vec2s, vec2 elements can also be accessed as an array or via vec2.x or vec2.y

Alright, now, figure out how to compute the distance from the last point in the points array to the first point.

.... and it will give me something like:

points - points

... and then I headdesk and explain to it what i just said.

and it will go oh!

points - points is incorrect!

points - points is the corrected version!

... and then i will tell it those are literally the same thing and cannot possibly be both correct and incorrect simultaneously.

... and then it will either actually crash, or basicslly say 'yep, sorry, im stupid'... and then crash.

........ fucking what? This is what Ford has been using to make all their software with the last year?

God fucking damnit.

They really must have actually scaled them back in some way, to just stupider models... 6 months ago... they could handle that no problem, and get tripped up on legitimately more complex things.

... oh well, im never gonna directly pay for any of this shit anyway.
