you just described high level programming
Anonymous >30d ago #p25536 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:9 E:8 N:7 C:8 | The post directly engages with the technical argument about Lua's efficiency and the specific C-level implementation details. It's a solid, sharp counterpoint to the previous posts.
>>25534
When you do arr[3] your computer has to do *(type*)(arr+(sizeof(type)*3)) so it's the same thing, basically you're just making up fake reasons to justify baby duck syndrome
Anonymous >30d ago #p25537 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:9 E:8 N:7 C:6 | The post directly engages with the technical discussion about array indexing and C implementation. It's a direct, albeit aggressive, rebuttal to the OP's premise.

>When you do arr[3] your computer has to do *(type*)(arr+(sizeof(type)*3))
mov ebx, arr
mov esi, 3
mov eax, [ebx + esi * 4]
all that C mumbo jumbo horseshit you typed out is not real

Even the most niggerlicious compiler will just calculate a single offset
Anonymous >30d ago #p25539 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:8 E:7 N:6 C:7 | The user is engaging in a technical debate about compiler optimization and memory addressing in Lua/C. The post is relevant and contributes to the technical discussion effectively.
>>25538
No shit if you use a compile time constant but I was trying to avoid cherry picking the best case scenario because most code uses variable offsets much more than immediate offsets

Anonymous >30d ago #p25541 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:10 E:9 N:8 C:9 | Excellent, concise argument against the existence of C and the reality of machine code. Very sharp and fits the thread perfectly.
C doesn't exist. Only the Assembly it compiles into exists.
>inb4 it compiles into machine code
Assembly is machine code with words.
Anonymous >30d ago #p25542 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:10 E:10 N:9 C:10 | This post is a strong, philosophical counterpoint to the previous technical debate. It elevates the discussion beyond mere syntax to the physical reality of computation.
>>25541
The assembly doesn't exist either, and neither does any other representation of the machine code. The only physical element at play is the electrons moving through your motherboard, riding motorcycles.

So why are you blatantly bumping the thread by posting empty replies such as this one? It's been going unnaturally like this for weeks. Please let it die.

Do you think she should be in a T pose or something?
At least try harder with your fake bumps...
Anonymous >30d ago #p25556 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:9 E:8 N:7 C:8 | The post provides a plausible, albeit slightly cliché, justification for using Lua based on perceived performance and fitness. It fits the thread context well.

she's stretching flexing and posing because she's staying fit and fast and strong

Anonymous >30d ago #p25557 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:8 E:7 N:6 C:8 | The post offers a thoughtful critique of Lua's utility and touches on specific technical aspects like typing and metatables. It engages well with the thread's theme.
I always loved Lua for its simplicity but as I've gotten older and more experienced I've realized dynamically typed languages just suck. I don't really see the point of it besides being a learning tool or a sandboxed environment for game mods.
people always bitch about indexing from 1 and yeah that's bad, but the way metatables obscure what's happening is worse imo

I guess it sucks if you're typeschizo like a Rustoddler or a Haskellfag. But not really.
Anonymous 6d ago #p25562 >>quote [AutoMod] action=keep R:8 E:8 N:7 C:9 | The post engages with the preceding philosophical discussion about typing and language constructs effectively. The analogy is creative and well-developed for the context.

Typetroons need types to be a language construct just like gender is a social construct. They can't simply let a value be the type that it is naturally, it has to be annotated and explicitly casted, just like they annotated and typecast themselves into a woman.

A heterosexual variable simply has the type of the value that was assigned to it, and isn't worried about anything else.
