yeah binary tree ;)

So, my wife sends me this picture because our car had 111,111 miles on it. Of course she called me a nerd when I told her, "That is awesome because if you ignore the .3 on the trip odometer it is 63 and that in binary is 111111"

Wife: what are you thinking about?

Me: how to optimize key storage in a binary tree

Wife: forget that I asked

"Hey, you know Binary Search Trees?" "Say no more."

-------------------------
Hey everyone! As some of you have already noticed, @trogus and I made a decision (based on the suggestion of some members of the community) to start transitioning all scores on the app to binary. We have started by making all user scores in our mobile apps and website (if you’re logged in) appear in binary. We think this makes the app more fun while remaining usable at the same time!

Please let us know what you think and happy binary-reading!

Yo mama's so fat that if she sat on a binary tree she will convert it into a linked list in O(1) time

Math teacher: wrong!
So i gived to her my calculator (in binary mode :-) )

Me: Yes!

Was letting my five year old cousin play on my laptop today. She was writing numbers in notepad, and after typing '123', she erased them because she wanted to start over from 0 instead.

Later she started typing 1 and 0 repeatedly in random sequence.

She may be a robot. Either way, I sense a bright future ahead for her.

I have a mechanical keyboard and a mouse with 18 buttons. I haven't gamed for over a year :/

I walk into this interview, all confident. It's a technical interview and it went over three hours, but that's another story.

The interviewer asks me a question, convert a binary tree to a doubly linked list, in place, in order traversal. I had legit forgotten about all the nitty gritties and took a few minutes to recall in order traversal code.

But I'm given a white board and allowed to mumble. That's nice. I think up something and tell him. He tells me to write the pseudocode. While writing, I realize it won't really work.

Now this is where the beauty comes out. I start manipulating stuff on board, trying out various ideas and, LIGHT BULB! I quickly write down the code. I show it to him.

Now this man sits there, stares at the code for fifteen minutes. He then proceeds to ask about a few corner cases. I go to rectify the code but WOAH, it's already taken care of! He takes a few examples and walksthrough each line of the code. We spent half hour after I wrote the code, with me either standing silently or explaining again why it worked the way it worked. And it did. Oh how beautifully it did.

The cherry on the cake is, for the next question I go to clear the board and he goes "WAIT! Let that stay, use the other side of the board." That was my badass dev moment.

I go home and check a popular technical interview questions website and my solution isn't there (or I didn't find it immediately at least).

I had, inadvertantly, bamboozled the interviewer 8D

The main reason I'm not taking computer science courses at my uni is because last year the department head flunked an entire Java/C class for plagiarism because the code for their binary search trees "looked too similar."

*While studying logic gates and binary at Uni* What's this got to do with computers?

There's 10 types of people.. those who know binary, and those who don't 😋

Also, fun fact: the reason that we use binary instead of decimal in digital processes has to do with logic levels. In electronics it's not always possible to generate a perfectly smooth and precise voltage, and non-binary data would also be quite difficult to process (because of all the different logic levels). Hence we have a safe margin of usually either 5V or 3.3V, which are the computer's logic levels.

Simply put, 5V or 3.3V is 1 while 0V is 0 🙂

Uggg..... I'm trying to encode a binary file in Python which may be an image or may be an executable, and then decode it back into a file (I plan on editing it in the middle, but baby steps for now..) but nothing is working!!

My plan is to:

Open binary file.

Decode as base64, or something else that could easily handle binary.

Convert byte data to string (for editory perpousos - I won't be editing bytes, I'll be doing custom encoding but that's irrelevant for this test)

Convert back to a byte string/array (with .encode(), probably)

Write to file.

I do this, yet the output has been altered... Though I haven't touched anything..

It's so enfuriating.. x.x

Based on at least a dozen times I've read or heard 'very true' or 'so true' used by so-called programmers this week alone (not only on devRant), I propose that we make them Boolean values from now on.

Maybe that will show them how stupid it is to relativise binary choices as a programmer.

Today I learned about binary encoding formats alternative to JSON such as Google Protocol Butter.
I like these binary formats.
Just thought I would share this here so others would benefit as well (and please share your experience if it is relevant)

Why do people still use both curl or wget? There's httpie and it's awesome!

http PUT your-host.com header-name:value parameter=value

Profit!

And it formats the response for json without jq. It will just show binary for binary content and you download by adding the download flag.

Yet why is curl still the default!?

//First rant

So I've been working trying to get a file exporter for a binary file format mostly reverse engineered - 2001 Super Monkey Ball 2 (GameCube) if anyone's interested.

Everything works fine, goals show up in the right places, wormholes work as intended, etc. That is everything, except every single level you create will be invisible, or crash (Depending on which version of Dolphin emu you use).

This happens whenever trying to specify object names for 3D objects. I checked, all the many offsets seem correct, Object names are correct. Tried both null terminated strings and fixed 80 character strings - nothing.

Some other guy also made an exporter that works, however the code is an absolute mess - basically unreadable. It also lacks some newer parts of the file spec, which is the main reason as to why I'm rewriting it.

And as I'm working with an almost entirely unheard of file format, there are few people to go to for help. The 2 I know who are also familiar with the LZ file format have no idea either...

Sigh.

Module for splitting binary files into multiple chunks/parts and viceversa, easy and fast.

This binary thing is actually pretty cool! It would be even cooler if we could configure which base to use.

What if aside from ++'s, devrant also turned their text posts into binary. Who'll read, who'll not? Hmm.

Y'know, up until now, everyone was just bragging about who has the most ++s... (I'm kidding, that didn't really happen... I think...?)

But now that we have ++s in binary, we can literally brag about who has the LONGEST... string of ++s.
Not... something else. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Oh well, size doesn't matter anyway.

I've never made anything interesting enough for people to want to hack, but I did find a way to remote control any Mac in the school.

So we have netbooks at school, and I have windows pe on a USB (it's quicker and easier than trying to mount ETFS on Linux). So booting from USB shouldn't be possible but I figured out that if you press ctrl alt delete right as it posts I can get a boot order option to appear (also my friend saw the it guy type in the password so I have that too), so I boot to my USB and copy the SAM file onto another USB (while I'm there I swapped sethc with CMD, I always leave an admin account named lolhakt or something like that) then used WPR and hashcat to crack the password (the first 3 characters were in the password hint so it didn't take long). I did a speed run of this, did it in under 20 minutes including cracking the hash.

So now I have the password. I actually kept it for a month or so before my friend found the network folder on his Mac, and that with the admin login you can pull files off any Mac (I found the Mac, iPhone and iPad wifi certificates on one) and another button labelled remote control. After login in we had complete remote access to the computer, including terminal (SSH worked too) to use the say command, and photo booth to see through the webcam. I had a lovely chat with some year 7s :)

The day after I got rated out 'cos I'm a bit of a repeat offender, and they got rid of my wifi access (meaning I had to piggyback of hacked netbooks for about a month) until they fixed the issue.

Windows security is terrible and from that, nothing is safe.

Finding tools. I am still to find a set of development tools I'm happy with. At the moment I'm on windows - only because my school doesn't support Linux, but I can't find a distro I'm happy with anyway - and I've got a couple of different editors including VS, VScode, notepad++, jetbrains suite, and sublime text, and I've got gitkraken as a git GUI but it's a little buggy.

Perfect points for me, dealing in binary

Why can assessment tasks be even slightly understandable?

I'm doing computing as a year 12 subject in year 10, I'm doing my first assessed task, and it's terrible. It's really not that hard to make things understandable is it?

"Store the data for a table of passengers (supplied below)"
Does that mean the user can input their own table? Where do I store it, we haven't learned about anything like that? And does anyone actually use psudocode? It's so hard without syntax highlighting!

This is making me really distressed :(

Is it just me or is everyone thinking the binary ++ counter is a good idea?

I think it’s really cool because it sort of hides the number of ++ you have behind a wall of laziness. Like people probably aren’t going to convert every score and I personally just look at the length of it as a rough estimate of how upvoted a user is.

I think this really helps eliminate the “likes contest” that can come with other social media. (And as a result reduces spam that is posted/reposted just to get likes)

Anyone agree? Disagree?

I've somehow got one of my servers on an IP I want to use, the problem is I have no idea where it is! SSH doesn't work, no web server, no other servers i usually use. Guys help what do I do!?

It would be so cool if the rant ++ counter would display binary too :D
