catch22@programming.devOPto Rust@programming.dev•Inferred types for function calls?English1·1 month agoI gather from your explanation, that in order to tell before hand whether or not a type will be inferred, you really need to examine the code and see how things are being handled, and optimized out. (And even then you still may not know) Interesting, thanks.
catch22@programming.devOPto Rust@programming.dev•Inferred types for function calls?English1·1 month agoGot it, this completely made sense after your explanation and a second look. Also before I saw this example I hadn’t thought about being able to pass arrays and tuples as generic parameters types. Thanks

IMHO, it would be really cool if there were an easy way to share and remove a profile across instances that wasn’t stored on a server, and it was yours and yours alone to do with what you like.

catch22@programming.devto Linux@programming.dev•Why I Switched to Linux for Gaming: No More Windows1·5 months agoAh, good point. I do have a monitor with HDR, but I never really paid attention to it in the past. AFAIK unfortunately there isn’t really any good support for HDR without a lot of messing with the window server. It seems to be in the works though by various groups.

catch22@programming.devto Linux@programming.dev•Why I Switched to Linux for Gaming: No More Windows4·6 months agoSimilar to this guy I haven’t used windows to play games for around 2 years now. I have around 30-40 games and I haven’t found a game that doesn’t work, yet…
catch22@programming.devto Linux@programming.dev•how can i check for driver/gpu related problems on linux?4·9 months agoJust had a similar issue a few days ago, where my system would freeze and spent 2 days trying to solve it. Ran a memory test, no issues. Tried NVIDIA drivers 470,535 and 550 with different combinations of the kernel including 6.x and 5.x (make sure you’re using generic). Issue was still there, grabbed a copy of windows and tried it there, same issue. That narrowed it down to a hardware issue. Started tweaking the bios and found the problem was a pcie gen issue, my motherboard was automatically setting it to 5 which was causing the crash I set it to 3, no more problems. You could use the same techniques to narrow down your problem as well. (Nothing was ever reported in any logs since it was a hard freeze, which made this a huge pain in the ass to fix)
They provide services to ALL people. So tired of reading that only the poor use the library. My kids are always begging to be taken there to get books and do activities. We just used the color printer/copier at ours the other day and the first 3 copies were free. Libraries are an amazing community resource for EVERYONE.
catch22@programming.devto Programming@programming.dev•Is there an example program that illustrates how a buffer overflow attack actually executes arbitrary code?14·11 months agoI really like this video, in it he demonstrates how a char pointer can be exploited to alter the return value in the stack and walks through an example of how it’s done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S0aBV-Waeo
catch22@programming.devto Programming@programming.dev•Open source Git repo owners with open licenses, how do you know your code is being used by a big corpo?2·1 year agoFor MIT/Apache it doesn’t matter. That’s always a problem with those free to use licenses you have a “good idea” who’s using it, but you never really can tell. It also creates a shit load of wasted improvements every time a company uses it, moth balls the project, but never pushes code upstream because why do that? \s So you sit back and hope that someone in the company feels a big enough moral drive or obligation to contribute their improvements up stream. But, how can you tell definitively? You can sometimes see it in the job descriptions they are hiring for, also I have had companies reach out out me personally for help. Many open source projects also will reach out and ask, and if they get the ok, will put it in the project description in order to encourage others companies to do the same. So why to companies bother? The funny thing about open source is that it lets people who like solving tough problems (the best type of engineers) know where the tough problems are being definitively solved, because here’s the code, and here’s the author from xyz company contributing and showing the rest of the world how it’s done. Often this will bring in engineers who are at the top of their game to these companies.
