THiNK about |PROG|RAMMING

What was the last nontrivial program you wrote, and when was that? Feel free to substitute with your current project if the last one was embarrassing. (Me? Currently: a procedural network wiring system for something too boring to describe. Previously: a prototype version of that boring something, completed a few months ago.) Being intentionally vague so I don't come off as an attention whore.

And by the way, have you read your SICP today? I'm reading mine right now.

A multithreaded calculation system to extend realistic, virtually real time distortion and dissection to an active 3D polygonal scene that uses indexed point geometry.  I'm trying to do a "take that" against the PS3.

At the moment, I'm actually doing underbelly work involving file IO and optimizing the vertex (re)indexing algorithms.

Write an IO library that simulates monads, so I can have the warm fuzzy feeling that Haskell gives me but in C++

Sounds worthy. Is this work part of an institution program?

I wrote a "real-time" (as in, not turn-based) rock paper scissors game using Arduino. Each component in itself was pretty trivial, but since I did everything myself (concept, circuitry, C++), altogether it was a sizable project.

Oh no, please don't refrain from elaborating on that.

Ok, I'll spill. The something is a model neural network. The network simulation itself is more complex than you might think (if you're familiar with ANNs) but it's still nothing compared to the task of getting it wired.

what's that big spike?

Last project was yet another rewrite of an image board bot (a few weeks or months ago).
Current project is a base for IRC bots and other clients (also a rewrite of a previous project).

TwoThree things:
1. Sage when testing.
2. Do not use an active thread to test. There are many BBCode testing threads which have not yet been threadstopped.
3. Remember to sage.

A marker on the graph showing how many times C++ was mentioned between months 50 and 60.

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-22 20:20

If I knew what base month was used I'd find the related posts and show you.

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-22 21:14

>>18
presumably the rightmost month (63) is RIGHT NOW, so:
$ date -dnow-63months
Sat Jan 22 20:15:00 EST 2005

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-22 21:44

>>19
It is not likely to be current: it will likely persist at that location for longer than a total period of 62 days, thus having less total opportunity to represent data coterminate with the present month than otherwise.

Postscript:
$ date -d "63 months ago"
Sat Jan 22 20:47:14 EST 2005


Sadly, date(1) does not know moons.

The graph was uploaded seconds before >>7 was submitted, and used a perfectly up-to-date progscrape database.

I have no way of knowing that.

That still doesn't mean anything about the data used to generate that graph.

Why would anyone use old data when fresh data is readily available?

I have no way of knowing you know that.

Okay fine. But how do I know these aren't Discordian months?

Since this is gnuplot and progscrape, it's probably Xarn doing all of these graphs, and Xarn is notorious for his hatred of Discordianism.

Why does he hate discordianism? Is he a cabbage or something?

Xarn hates all things equally

Oh, in that case I don't feel compelled to analyze his data. Actually, now that I think of it, in the future I shall only take interest in analyzing time plots done according to the Discordian calendar.

C#/SQL program that my employees use to tell them what to do and store it after they do it. Finished the first version in July, updating and adding stuff since then. Making a HTML/XML sportsbook odds scraping program in C on the side. Haven't read my SICP today.

Tell My Anus

Name: Anonymous 2010-04-23 17:50

I'll do it at night. There's a poetic sort of calm in the air. A silence that cannot be obtained during the day.

While in this silence I realize that telling your anus is all I ever want to do.

Don't change these.
