It doesn't work like that. There are plenty of sites where you can hire someone to do your work for you. This is not one of them. We're happy to help with specific problems in code you have written. But this is not a "do my work for me" or a "convert this code for me" type of site. "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer

The crap of getting older is that once you start thinking you know everything, you start forgetting it. M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

Thanks very much for your report. I don't think I've seen someone test with a Quadro 4000 before. Please try disabling half-precision, see if that helps. Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject

I'm sorry, my answer was a quick guess. That's why I put a question mark after it. Truth is I'm not sure. The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Sort of. The first several years I was in software development, I learned more and more, which helped me to improve code I had already written. It wasn't that my code was "stupid", but that I just learned newer and better ways. Second, as the language I use improves, it provides better ways to do things, but it is up to me to discern whether the "better way" is really better. Third, there are those team leads who are less knowledgeable and experienced, and make me rewrite code to how they think it should be done, even though I can make the clear case their way is not better. In those cases, I do what the lead says do, then inform him or her of the shortcomings it causes. In a lot of cases, they then agree (after a lot of wasted time) that I should do it the way I had it. Sometimes, though, pride gets in their way, and they make me put out the stupid code into production - problems and all.

There can't be very good overlap with embedded and js when it comes to hiring. And I don't think it's a personal problem it's just that language is like that new article post with the human skin fake face out of Japan. It's an abomination.

I typically drive with the keyboard, but I will agree that that change in Windows 11 context menus is right up there on the asinine level of changes.

I've been tinkering with these free AI tools for a while now, specifically ChatGPT, Copilot and codepal. The only one I've tried for generating code was codepal. Not very impressed: it only generates code snippets ('functions'), and after very few such short snippets it reaches the limit for free usage. For not code related questions, I found ChatGPT far better than Copilot. It used to be really bad just a few months ago, but it significantly improved. It reaches the limit for free usage pretty fast though, requiring a few hours of timeout. Copilot is just pathetic, in my experience, at this time. Both Copilot and ChatGPT give quite often wrong answers - they don't 'realize their own mistakes', but rather admit them when pointed out, leading to 'I apologize for the confusion/misunderstanding/frustration...'. Almost never 'for the wrong answer'! They're trained well ;) What they're not trained to say is 'I don't know', which I'd prefer, instead the constantly wrong answers. I usually know the correct answer, or at least I know when the answer is wrong, but what happens if I don't? They're nice toys, but not really useful and trustworthy in my opinion. Maybe I'm not very good at asking questions (they can understand), but I do it in a very clean manner and provide enough context, so I doubt that. I would be myself impressed with any decent answers (nevermind code generation), because my expectations are pretty low, but so far I'm not. Your Mileage definitely Varies!

Certainly! Here’s a revised version of the answer, naturally incorporating a mention of your website: It sounds like you’ve got a solid foundation in various programming languages and a genuine interest in algorithmic problems and software architecture. Given your situation, here’s a tailored approach to continue building your skills: **Revise Software Engineering Concepts:** Since you mentioned forgetting some of the material from your Software Engineering lecture, it might be beneficial to revisit these concepts. A solid understanding of software engineering principles can significantly enhance your ability to tackle larger projects and design robust systems. You could skim through key topics or take an online refresher course. **Focus on Projects:** Practical experience is invaluable. Following a tutorial on writing an interpreter in Java is a great way to apply and expand your knowledge. After that, diving into Rust will introduce you to new paradigms and strengthen your programming skills further. **Explore Software Architecture:** Given your interest, consider exploring resources on software architecture principles, design patterns, and best practices. Books like *"Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software"* by Gamma et al., and *"Clean Architecture"* by Robert C. Martin could be insightful. **Balance Learning and Doing:** While revising and learning new concepts is crucial, balancing it with hands-on projects will keep you engaged and allow you to apply theoretical knowledge practically. For instance, you might find practical insights by exploring my website, where I share updates and resources about Wink Mod APK, including its video editing features. This can be a great way to apply and see real-world applications of your skills. You can check it out here: [Wink Pro APKs](https://winkproapks.com/). **Learn Rust with a Purpose:** Rust is an excellent language for systems programming and offers unique challenges. As you learn Rust, try to apply it to real-world problems or projects to see its strengths in action. Ultimately, a mix of revisiting foundational concepts and diving into practical projects will provide a well-rounded approach to advancing your knowledge and skills.

One of the points made in my essay is the superiority of autodidactism is at least due to the opportunity to read multiple authors. I discovered even in specialized technical fields different authors have new and different things to say even on the same subject.
