@pwm because that's what I wrote on the first pass and I didn't realize python was going to take literally 10 minutes to do it
I already slightly rewrote the logic and now it takes 0.6 seconds

python really doesn't like it when I build a giant (millions of characters) string bit by bit in a loop
total memory suicide

@MachineMadeDog @Curvin I think it would be pretty hard technically unless it was like, isometric or something

@MachineMadeDog @Curvin I mean there's a big difference between the perspective of an infantryman and the perspective of a bigass mech. this has major implications on the technical design of a video game
imagine a game that is designed for someone walking around slowly in a city. a high level of detail is possible and desired because they can get close to everything, and you don't need to load things quickly because the camera can't move quickly anyway
now put that camera in a car and let it drive around. suddenly you need to be able to load the world way faster, and you won't be able to maintain the same level of detail. if the game was designed around a car in the first place you wouldn't try to have high detail because the camera can't get right up close to things and is expected to be moving around a lot. but maybe you just dynamically choose lower fidelity textures to cope with the problem
now put the camera in something that's tall, fairly fast, *and* can see for miles around. you can't afford the fine detail anymore at all, but you still need it to look good, and you need to be able to load the world blazingly fast
it's not impossible to accommodate all these things at once but it's technically very difficult and expensive

@butterdog @MachineMadeDog @Curvin to do it well you need a shitload more art than usual, and your engine has to be able to handle huge variability in loading and draw distance, which isn't a common feature
there are lots of compromises you might make to mitigate those problems but making the right choices is itself very difficult and can be risky in terms of development effort (you realize you made the wrong choice, but have a ton of work sunk into it)

@egirlyuumimain @sickburnbro I believe the government is pretty incompetent but I don't believe their accounting practices are so bad that they don't know who is being paid for what purpose

@JoshuaSlocum @billiam @RustyCrab I think the "leak" was intentional. but the leak isn't what I was interested in

replacing americans with foreigners on and off shore is a bipartisan issue. both parties overwhelmingly support it

well this is a choice the government has made, it's not a hard problem unless you expect perfection forever
but with all security stuff, the weak point is always the lazy user who won't tolerate even the tiniest sliver of inconvenience. so even if the government does have some hot shit secure chat an NSA furry cooked up, they likely wouldn't use it anyway because they couldn't have their family chat and top secret military chat in the same phone app

yea man most "programmers" can't program

there are a number of intrinsically flawed technologies being pushed today that make such enticing promises that otherwise rational people cannot help but want to believe in them, so they handwave away the clear and obvious problems they see

okay maybe my AI code resulted in a horrific accident that turned 73 people into hamburger but in my defense I didn't just copy paste the code

just come to open source, programmer socks are free but also we're not going to pay you

not only are they nonfunctional without their specific IDE setup, many "professional" programmers would be completely helpless if you asked them to build a project of modest complexity from scratch
they've literally never done it!
