    probE466 got a reaction from F60Outrunn in You’re Still Gonna Buy Intel… - Core i9 10900K & i5 10600K Review   
    Pretty disappointed with the title change and the general timing of this video (right after that last one?) I know you guys arent bought by Intel, but it sure does look weird. Not sure if I will continue paying for floatplane if this trend continues.

    You know that Java can do more than just build applets, right?
    You know that a lot of companies use Java, right?
    You know that no language is the best choice for every situation, right?
     
    It's unfortunate that you used the wrong language, or potentially just the wrong project type, for the job but that's hardly a reason to criticise the language from being taught in schools. With that said, many schools are changing, or have already changed, their intro courses away from Java. A lot are choosing Python while some are going with other languages. So there are valid reasons to move away from Java, according to some people, however, yours just isn't one of them.

    Is there a way to make the yearly payment not a subscription? So you need to manualy pay it once a year. This should work as a workaround, because I was able to contribute to the Office crowdfunding campaign via paypal.

    probE466 reacted to vorticalbox in What's causing the lag? C# Password generation   
    Why are you using while loops? you have a length so this is clearly a use for a for loop.
     
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) { //code } And way are you not you putting all the chars in an array and then using that to get the character? This would remove all of your if's and this would remove you putting a random function to call and as a final note you really should be using a string builder. 
     
    create an array holding all possible characters ask the user for a password length for loop from 0 up to user length pick a number from 0 to the length of the array passChars[randomNumber] add that to the password string return to user.

    probE466 reacted to Reflecting in GTX 1070 vs GTX 1070 G1 For 1080p   
    1070 is overkill for 1080p. As for overclocking, they all overclock nearly the same, so throw that out the window from the get go. The real difference in cards are efficiency and cooling. 
     
    Personally, on a 1080p setup I would suggest a 1060 6gb or a 480 8gb.

    probE466 reacted to RRGT19 in GTX 1070 vs GTX 1070 G1 For 1080p   
    totally agree with you, I have the same situation.
    it is not overkill. I have a gtx1070 playing at 1080p and while gaming syndicate I have to turn off a few settings to get 55-60 fps. the witcher 3 with hairworks on I have 58-61 FPS.. imagine that with a gtx1060. gtx1070 is not overkill at all

    probE466 reacted to Delicieuxz in GTX 1070 vs GTX 1070 G1 For 1080p   
    A GTX 1070 is not overkill for 1080p 60 FPS, and I have no idea where people saying that it is are getting such an idea from.
     
    If you get a 1060 or 480, you'll have to reduce graphical settings to get 60 FPS in graphically-intensive games. A GTX 1070 can usually get 60 - 90 FPS in graphically-intensive games, at 1080p, but there are still cases where a 1070 struggles to get 60 FPS at 1080p.
     
     
    Notice that Hairworks is disabled in the Witcher 3 part of that demo.
     
    Also, a GTX 1070 can't get 60 FPS at 1440p, therefore it can't really be called ideal for 1440p. The GTX 1070 is a 1080p card, and is the bare minimum if your goal is to have a constant 60 FPS, with all settings maxed, in graphically-intensive games.
     
    Then the GTX 1070, or a 980ti, is the bare minimum for you. With a 1060 or 480, you'll be living on the lower-side of 60 FPS in graphically-intensive games, unless you lower graphical settings. And that's with already-released game, nevermind games that will release over the next two years.
     
    If you get a 1060 or 480, you'll be in the exact situation that your above quote says is precisely the situation that you don't want to be in.
     
     
    People, please stop calling a 1070 overkill for 1080p, 60 FPS. It is not. And a 1070 is definitely not a 1080p, 144 FPS  GPU - for that, a person will want at least a GTX 1080, even though a GTX 1080 doesn't get 144 FPS in graphically-intensive games at 1080p, either.

    Imo, start with HTML to get really basic concepts, then move onto something like Python, then after a good amount of time try stepping up to JavaScript, then C#/C++

    probE466 reacted to deviant88 in Java or Python for first language?   
    I think people still dont understand programming, they fight too much with the topic "what language to use", did anyone told you, you are not allowed to use other languages at the same time?
    If your application is performance critical like a 3D renderer you write it all in C++.
    If not you can use python for productivity, and if need may be that 1 or 2 functions from your whole program run too slow you can code them in C++ make a C++ wrapper for python and invoke it there.
    And yes you should probably know both languages, start with python get very good at it, master it, then learn C++ at least the basics.

    There's more to a website than the front end and Java is, I believe, the most popular back end language (probably close between Java and PHP.) 
     
    Those companies wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't the best solution (for them.) For a simple website you make to learn programming, no of course it wouldn't be necessary but that also doesn't mean it's a bad choice.
