Why is it that nobody can seem to figure out you need a god forsaken "cause" field of type Error in your Error class

How is this so fucking hard to understand for language makers

I seem to have a really bad case of evening depression. If that's even a thing

I'm super happy and full of energy but as soon as it's dark outside I become a depressed sack of shit with no drive to work on anything 😔

Whatever I'm actually working on without giving up because dear god I cannot have any more failures

I'm probably doing something wrong because I cannot think of a good implementation (or alternative) for this pattern in Rust.

trait Terminal {
fn color_manager(&mut self) -> &mut dyn ColorManager;
}

All I want is having things in their own tidy little class with a specific job. In this case handling color conversion, having a registry for indexed colors, stuff like that...

It's composition which Rust should be good at so I assume there's a better way

How can I do something like this properly?

"Because the compiled terminfo entries do not contain metadata identifying the indices within the tables to which each capability is assigned, they are not necessarily compatible between implementations"

Come ooonnnnn wtf even is this

I don't care what anyone says I'm still holding on to the idea of a depressed peoples chatting/dating platform primarily focused on connecting people that don't think they are good enough and trying to make them reevaluate

Fuck this shit
I'm out

Nothing better than finally stepping in and turning your life around just to have this one dream that kicks you right where it hurts

Not a sad dream where when you wake up you can be sure that it was indeed just a dream. I mean one of those crystal clear dreams where you behave just like you would in real life, being in exactly that situation that you worry about and then having to watch yourself failing at being a normal human being

Thanks brain. I didn't want to get over it anyways

My search for a solution to mintty terminal compatibility seems to be coming to a close (thank god). I know now that having compatibility with cygwin doesn't make sense as far as I can see. Because it's about mintty not cygwin.

But now I have to figure out how to interface with mintty for setting the non-canonical flag and switching stdin to non blocking mode

Oh boy... It's getting closer!

Which fucking cunt keeps thinking putting redo on ctrl+shift+z or some other retarded shortcut is a good idea

Lost a whole paragraph of technical explanation because I didn't realize and then couldn't redo my panic undo 😠

Okay say I'm compiling a windows binary but I need to call a function from a linux library when running on cygwin. How would one go about doing this? Does it even make sense?

My idea is compiling a dll with one function that links against the linux lib and calls the function. Then just load the dll when needed.

Kinda new to linking stuff so any input is appreciated

I'm so fucking done 😔

consoleapi on windows and control codes + termios on linux

But what about ansi terminals on windows :(
I can't find a good way to interface with them, termios obviously won't work

My brain hurts so much but I cannot have another failed project. Fucking obsolete bodged together amateur software 😔

Writing a truly crossplatform terminal library is the biggest pain in the ass.

And you thought windows was bad. They have a proper API with droves of features, freely allocatable screenbuffers, scrolling on both axes, etc.
Fucking xterm vtxxx compatible piles of shit are the problem.
Controlling kinda works eventhough the feature set is pretty bad. The really fucked up thing is reading values back. They literally get put into the input buffer. So you have to read all the actual user input before that and then somehow parse out the returned control sequence. Of course the user input has to be consumed so I have to buffer it myself. Even better is when you get a response with non printable characters which the fucking terminal will interpret as another control sequence. So when you set a window title to a ansi control sequence it would get executed when queried. Fuck this shit but I'm not giving up. I will tame this ugly, bodged together dragon

Installed chocolatey for the first time because hey a package manager for windows sounds cool

Turns out it automatically installs random ass windows updates

Fuck that noise

So I'm gonna finish my interpreter. No matter how much fucking work it is to implement a proper cross platform terminal library, because all the existing ones suck. I'm gonna write a debugger for it.

And then I'm gonna learn to play the ukulele.
And I'm going to start a new project that may actually make me a good sum of money.

This is the plan. If I don't do this then literally fuck my life, I might aswell jump off a bridge because I can't fucking do anything

So I just found out that GL_MAX as a blend func is supported pretty much universally (~92%). Pretty nice considering I kinda gave up my baricentrics based anti-aliasing technique months ago

First person to guess what I'm doing again gets a cookie

Why is my dad such an unsupportive, narcissistic piece of garbage jesus christ

More beer and more music. Who needs more in life? 😌

Maybe I don't understand myself. But I understand that I'm happy. And that's what counts

Okay, stupid question...

Is there are standardized api for manipulating text terminals on linux distros? Something similar to win32's consoleapi.h
Or is there a library that provides such an api?

"If you do something last minute, it only takes a minute to do."

Would it be clever to use a password manager with randomized passwords and also store them in chrome's password vault?

I mean it's less secure, yes, but should something bad really happen I can just change the password and this would be a good upgrade in terms of user experience

What do you guys think?

I'm dead inside

That is all

Holy shit my dream last night was the best I had in years. I was basically in this open world (just real life) kinda thing that felt a lot like DayZ with the atmosphere (just no zombies). We we're a lot of friends just running about. But it was also kinda an exploration dream where I went into this bunker on the airfield (I guess) and then it was more like an action horror game where I had to shoot the most disgusting creatures. Except one monster was a cute girl (yeah I don't know). The dream then shifted to cuddling and making out with this super cute girl in bed

Oh man. This dream had it all and it was crystal clear the whole time, it was just amazing

Sorry, not sorry for reading this lol

What the absolute fuck

Can someone explain why `SELECT foobar FROM sometable` works in MariaDB while `SELECT sometable.foobar` doesn't?

The error is "code 1109. Unknown table foobar in field list"

It's always weird drinking, then eating, suddently being not drunk and getting drunk again

It's just that there's never enough alcohol

I don't know what happened to me. I never had a problem not drinking when I didn't want to even though I drank quite a bit at times when I was still a teenager (Yes it annoys me greatly that I'm not considered a teenager anymore btw).

Not even a month in of being 20 and I feel like I have an alcohol addiction after going drinking a few times. What the hell

Who the hell chose this god damn font. Just why

NPM has this cool feature called "link" which allows you to easily link local npm packages as dependencies of other local packages for developement. It's so cool in fact that everything you run npm install it deletes all your links for fuck all reason

Just bought a mxmtoon vinyl. Do I have a record player? No. Do I care? Not really
