LP0 ON FIRE posted:MrMoo have you tried using d3 with your graphing? I think it's pretty awesome from what I've seen. Both Rickshaw and Plotly are built above d3.js in order to provide additional functionality such as time-series support. I'll probably get there eventually.

I remember fantasizing about this when I was a kid, ie if only the money I got from one game transferred over to another. I'm not gonna lie seeing that was a bit magical.

That’s awesome! Now I’m imagining some massive metagame where there’s fluctuating exchange rates between rupees/coins/pokédollars/whatever and your goal is to... maximize... something... ?

Why limit yourself to money? AGDQ would be even more interesting if some speedruns or even audience donations changed resource levels or set/unset boolean values needed for game progress. Whoever's running Super Metroid goes to rescue the animals and they're already dead!

Twitch audiences being able to change the gameplay for a streamer while it's happening is basically my end-goal for these prototypes, yeah. Of course there's some modern games being made with that stuff in it, but I feel like no one cares about those and it's a lot more interesting when it's happening to a classic game a bunch of people grew up with.

I believe there is an I Wanna Be The Guy fangame that uses twitch chat as input, so if you type emotes into the chat they become projectiles in the game that the streamer has to dodge.

This is very cool. You could have a thing where someone donates for one player over another in an AGDQ race to give them bonuses or detriments. Like, every 5 dollars to one incentive gives them a bomb, every 500 dollars donated to another incentive gives them a heart container or something. Or even something that doesn't impact the game, like a donation mentioning one runner will increase their score or coin count in smw.

Switzerland posted:Is this your doing, too? Ha, looks like they don't have the previous close. All the major websites typically pull the data from a company that aggregates multiple exchange connections. This is what Thomson Reuters, Bloomberg, IDC, etc, all do. Those companies have direct connection to NYSE which provides the raw data. For something like this either the website itself is trying to be too smart and messed up or something failed in the middleman aggregator, i.e. lost state. I get to enjoy similar issues and more because NYSE is not allowed to source data from itself directly, but because ICE owns NYSE and IDC I can source from IDC instead.

i had this idea for an RTS simulation type game thing bouncing around in my head for ages, and only recently i've started to properly flesh out the concept. it's based in the 18th-19th century during the fur trade era, so you start with a charter and have to build up your fort/factory, develop buildings, manage resources, defend against enemies, the usual kind of stuff. i made a mock-up of the UI in photoshop and was wondering what people though...

Looks real cool & interesting. I think I would prefer the whole thing mirrored (chat and minimap on the left, unit details and info on the right) but it probably doesn't matter very much.

Continuing my work on music synthesizers, I've got a fairly basic sample-based synthesizer working in VB .Net. As it is now, it currently supports definitions for all of the existing MIDI instruments, but so far I have only implemented basic square wave and timpani samples. Eventually I'm going to add the ability for the user to create their own patch (instrument) banks. I'm also going to have to handle various MIDI controller changes, such as reverb, chorus, etc. Here's a video of what I've got it doing so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRgSfZo-BkA Edit: Just noticed I misspelled "SYNTH" in some of the console messages, lmao Neurion fucked around with this message at 04:56 on Nov 23, 2017 |

I did this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-dpR76bZ-g I research compiler optimisations, so I don't usually have much opportunity to do anything with visual appeal. But I defended my PhD last week, and to show off a bit, I was rendering my slides in a program written in the programming language I had designed and implemented as part of my research. I didn't tell anyone that in advance, but did a reveal where I suddenly disintegrated a slide into free-floating pixels interacting through gravitational attraction (essentially turning the slide into a 2D N-body problem), computed in real-time on my laptop. It looked like this (I press a button to make the pixels return to their original position, restoring the original image). It was pretty flashy by the standards of a compiler researcher, and the assessment committee seemed amused Athas fucked around with this message at 09:03 on Nov 25, 2017 |

Well, the defense is not for their sake - they already read my thesis, where I limited Sanic to a hedgehog on the cover page. And I find that computer scientists really don't mind jokes and silly pictures of vidya game characters, as long as the work is otherwise up to snuff.

 Wanted to learn WebAssembly in better detail, so I hand-write a Brainfuck interpreter in WebAssembly's text format. Considering the number of infinite loops that their toolchain has on non-well-formed input, I don't think anybody has actually tried to do this. https://github.com/magcius/bfasm/ Code over this way. There's also a hand-written asm.js version I wrote first and used for reference for the compiled version.

Sagacity posted:Ok, no problem! I was just asking because a friend of mine worked on Inertia Player which was pretty popular back in the day. Well he had come up with a cracking fast algorithm that did FFT in like 2 ms (he was approached by BNFL to get it so they could multiplex multiple sensors through one cable and still have realtime monitoring of the reactor cores) He did transpose from Dos into OS2 and Win 32 and made a library out of it in C++ he told me this about its name: PowerMOD. An early OS/2 version is briefly mentioned here: http://www.os2ezine.com/v2n10/first.htm Tony is really cool, having written the OS2 version of Mysql and worked for Mysql, Google, Blizzard, and currently Linked in

Building OO psuedo-databases in PHP for a Uni project where we had to get classes and junk to interact with eachother. I've built a food ordering system which assembles ingredient items from the pseudo-classes and outputs them. The user selects an item, counts the number of items they want, and then some stuff happens. JS handles the client side, calculating the amount of items, and the sum total of the items and displays them in the form fields using DOM selection, then the form values are passed into PHP, calculated, and returned to the user in a similar fashion. It's probably pretty baby tier stuff for advanced guys and I know PHP isn't hot poo poo anymore and a lot of people hate it but we're being taught it at Uni as it's generally a very good starter language with clear syntax and processes and all of the principles of OO can be applied in PHP, so it can't be that bad. P.S. I love VSCode.

VSCode is great. PHP is less so, but honestly, the first language you learn doesn't really matter. I learned to code in MATLAB.
