<0> (not idiot)
<1> IRR: i don't really have advice either
<1> sigh, i'm as useless as rdragon
<0> indeed ;)
<0> try openmp ?
<0> I don't really know much about it
<0> other than it's basically a stopgap
<0> same with that silly 'concurrency & coordination runtime' coming from MS
<2> Well this is a very basic concurrency mechanism. If anyone wants more elaborate stuff he'll have to arrive at that manipulating the basic constructs provided.
<2> compose { block1 and block2}. choose {block1 and block2}
<3> have somebody sucessfully read a 32 bits tga file with an alpha channel using opengl?
<4> As you write it, I'd wager "no".
<4> OpenGL is a specification for rendering, not for working with data files.
<3> well you can load image files using opengl
<3> the thing is I can load a 24 bit tga but not a 32 and I dont understand why..
<2> Ok I am going ahead with the scheme I mentioned. I'll finish implementing it tomorrow. Then lets see.



<2> laterz
<5> are there any good game development channels ?
<6> will delegates be available in the next standard?
<5> congress has yet to determine that
<4> brainsocket - irc.afternet.org #gamedev
<4> also gamedev.net
<5> thanks :)
<4> Several professionals, lots of wannabes, and tons of idle chat.
<5> i figured
<4> For the professionals there are a few other channels, but that one covers most everybody.
<5> thanks though :) i'm off to idleland
<7> peterhu: http://www.vdare.com/Sailer/kerry_iq_lower.htm
<7> and since I know you are too illiterate to read the whole thing, I'll break it down for you.
<7> This suggests that the 50th percentile among the norm group of Air Force Academy applicants had an IQ of about 123, thus putting Bush in the 125-130 rangea little better than his SAT score would imply.
<7> what is your IQ peterhu?
<7> I'm an Atheist by the way, and I hate all the faith based crap he's done, but I wholeheartedly support what we are doing in Iraq and afghanistan.
<7> So, you can hate religion and xtians and still back his effort to keep us from being killed or converted to islam
<7> because, right now, you have a choice, if they take control your only choice will be Islam or death?
<7> let's see how you wish to have Bush back in office then.
<7> http://www.csbsju.edu/uspp/Bush/Bush-IQ-Myth.html <----Another page on the subject
<7> http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/presiq.htm <---again
<7> If you did any amount of independent research instead of swallowing the Liberal's pill without question (the same thing you accuse Xtians of doing) you would know this already.
<8> lol
<1> heh, if an IQ of 125 is impressive, then perhaps i waste my time on some people
<9> it's above average, isn't it ?
<1> by definition, yes
<10> i dont know... i know some people with documented IQs of 125 who are still idiots
<1> mine was tested at 155
<1> i put no faith in it
<10> when i was in 8th grade the school thougth i was retarded so they gave me an IQ test to get me into special education
<10> the test was like 6 hours and i gave up on the end (boredom), i got put into the 128 - 137 range
<1> yeah
<1> it was long and filled with puzzles
<1> it was boring indeed
<1> i failed to see the point of it
<10> i was failing most of my cl***es, but that was because i was bored and didnt do homework
<9> I only bothered to do a couple of online tests - but they are unreliable
<1> see, the difference between me and that guy is that i don't back up my rhetoric with obviously bull**** websites, heh
<10> peterhu: which test did you get the 155 on? the stanford-bennet?
<1> it was 10 years ago administrated by a psychologist, i don't know
<10> i think mine was called WISC III or something similar to that
<1> i also got poor marks in school because i didn't do any homework
<1> i didn't see the point considering i could get an A on a test with little effort
<10> i wonder if i should start putting on my resume that i have IQ scores that put me in the genius range
<1> heh
<10> im looking for just about anything to add to my resume as it seems like people are just throwing it out
<1> contrary to what that website claiming bush to be smarter than kerry says, IQ really is meaningless
<1> intelligence is not so easily measured in a 6 hour test
<11> Im trying to learn how C++ p***es functions using pointers, and i came across this example code
<4> Right. It takes at least SEVEN hours to test it.
<4> :-)
<11> http://rafb.net/paste/results/DEjBFC78.html
<11> on line 12
<11> its ***igns the *minus with the function subtraction
<11> and then laters uses it
<1> declares a global function pointer
<10> a friend of mine had an IQ tested at 159, yet had horrible logic and reasoning skills
<9> what does a psychologist do during the test, exactly ?
<11> but it also uses another function the same way
<10> exception: essentially ask questions and note your responses...



<1> Asmodee`: one of my friends in high school was incredibly gifted at physics, smart as they come; but he was always doing boneheaded things
<11> peterhu, look at line 24
<9> Asmodee` : but the test itself is written, isn't it ?
<11> its does this using the addition function
<10> exception: the one i took was only partially written, some involved me to look at pictures given by the psychiatrist... of course this was a test for children, not adults
<11> but the function hasent been ***igned to a pointer
<1> exception: he administered the test; asking questions, recording responses, etc
<12> Asmodee, the only way to get IQ on to a resume is through mensa
<12> And that seems a little eh to me
<1> i'm not really sure their role in it exactly, as i've never proctored one
<1> by eh i hope you mean absurdly pretencious
<10> JBlitzen: why? i have the paperwork that shows my scores from the test I took
<12> That's a good phrase for it, homokhan
<1> moforila: line 24 is calling the function named operation, p***ing in addition for the function pointer
<9> Asmodee` : do you think that including the IQ in CV would provide more benefit than damage ?
<10> exception: no clue, but im getting about 2% responses on jobs i apply to, so im willing to try just about anything
<10> it's sick considering idiots that i graduated with have jobs, but i do not
<1> is there something in particular you don't understand about it? (i'm asking to understand your comprehension; i am not trying to riddicule or be confrontational)
<1> it's hard on IRC to convey intent
<9> if I were to hire someone, it would raise a suspicion - yet another "I'm a genius" arrogant fellow
<11> peterhu, ok but why is it that on line 12, minus is ***igned to subtrations, but not like this happens for the addition function?
<11> nothing*
<11> int (*minus)(int,int) = subtraction;
<1> moforila: you can consider minus to be an alias to subtraction
<11> so dont we also need to go int (*add)(int,int) = addition;
<11> for this to work
<1> nope
<10> exception: well there certainly is that point, but i may end up having it catch someone's attention.. and if they request documentation i do have it
<9> had an argument with someone yesterday. He used function pointers because he knew virtual functions are slow...
<12> I don't think the problem with your resume is that it doesn't have your IQ on it.
<1> Asmodee`: funny corollary; we had a tech writer interview who remarked at least once every other sentence that she was great
<1> literally
<10> i think my resume needs lots of work and that's the problem, but i really dont know what to change
<1> "i'm great"
<11> peterhu, so ***igning it to another name only shows you can change the name, you can call any function in the programing with the opertation *functioncall ?
<1> exception: sounds like a C developer to me
<9> peterhu : probably
<1> moforila: the dereferncing syntax is not required to call a function pointer, but i think the intent of that sample is to demonstrate how to declare a function pointer and ***ign it to a function
<9> there are people who write the private part of the cl*** first, just to save on writing "private:"
<9> I'm going to do some serious education on my new job, and if I fail - start looking for another one
<1> you could also later do "minus = addition;" to point the minus function pointer at the addition function, since they both have the same signature
<12> http://thedailywtf.com/forums/thread/40043.aspx
<1> moforila: but yes, functioncall will point to a function of the given signature, so it allows the callee to call the function given
<1> this is a common pattern employed by standard c++ algorithms, but they take functors, which are a super set of function pointers
<11> peterhu, thanks mate
<1> any time
<1> the dailywtf is JBlitzen's paste site
<11> I have only started programming, only made a few ***igments for uni work, There is alot of stuff I dont use in C++ and im still a bit lost when its comes to writing nice object oriented code
<1> dailywtf: where JBlitzen-code comes alive
<1> moforila: it can take years to fully appreciate the language, not to be discouraging
<1> there's a lot of good stuff in it; the hard part, i've found, is learning how to think like a c++ developer
<1> http://www.rudbek.com/books.html is a list of books the majority in here believe are excellent sources of information
<1> you may want to consider getting one or two (preferably as many as possible, budget allowing) if you think you will continue to learn the language
<1> heh, nice jb
<12> It load for you?
<12> Ah
<1> yeah finally
<11> thanks peterhu, i thinks its important to have a good understanding of how to code even though im not going to be a programmer
<11> how can you guys sitting a a chair for 8 hours at a time and code, i would go crazy
<1> it helps to start out crazy
<1> most of us do
<11> lol
<11> whats the money like in programming
<1> one usually does alright
<11> I think you can make more in websites design, and its much easier i think
<1> everything is relative to your location though
<1> i know plenty of developers that make good six figures, but they have to support a 1+ million dollar mortgage for a condo
<1> a condo that's half the size of my house
<11> mmh yes true
<1> but i guess it would be exciting to live in the city
<11> not really
<1> with all the crime and what not
<1> i want to fight it
<11> well in sydney any way
