I can see that :v:
Note that quite a few of these tools (e.g. Xamarin) are still limited to individuals and very small companies, though.

[QUOTE=awcmon;50045866]I find it somewhat ironic that while you don't seem to have a problem with china's way of doing things, china's way of doing things would really have a problem with you[/QUOTE]

You are misinformed about the Chinese system because it has been misrepresented by Western media. Saying mean things online does not punish you. Currently the system that exists is like if Amazon (in their case Alibaba and some other company I think) used a lot of data to give more benefits to customers with good scores. So if you pay your bills in time, have stable income, have been living in your house for a certain amount of time, buy certain types of stuff online, then maybe you can more easily get a loan, or it'll be easier to rent a place somewhere else to live for a while, or you can rent a car without paying a deposit. But all this is valid for services offered by Alibaba. You can still use other services normally. It's like a credit card score, or a mobile phone score. It's from one company. It's not mandatory and it doesn't affect you if you're not inside those systems.

When I talk about variations on this system I mean exactly that, variations on this system. So you'd have Google data mining your shit more so that instead of just feeding you ads, now instead if you have a good Google Score you have better access to some Google services. If you want to you can just stop using Google and use something else. This isn't Orwellian or whatever the fuck people said it was, it's just a company doing something good for their customers. People who care about their privacy won't use it, but most people will, because it will be convenient as fuck.

The part that journalists pretty much made up was about political comments online. The system used by Alibaba currently doesn't do this, it's mostly based on your online purchasing behaviors, websites they visit, and so on. There's a system that the Chinese government WANTS to implement in 2020 around these ideas, but no details have been made public yet. So any article that talked about how the Chinese government is doing X or Y is WRONG and is using MADE UP information.

Xamarin won't be. Whilst the Visual Studio or Xamarin Studio integration will be licensed such that it's only free for open source, individuals and teams of 5 or less, the SDKs the actual bits that allow you to build a Xamarin project from the command line will be open source. You won't have the editor support but you should be able to build a Xamarin application with open source tools in the future.

What's with all those Unix-first tools by default putting (\r)\n at the end of the file too though?

[sp](I heard something about line separators vs. terminators, but that prob. would ruin the comedic timing more than that's the case anyway.)[/sp]

I use \0

I did SecurePlayerPrefs, still not done because sama data encrypts to same string (need to change key for each data)

POSIX defines a line as a series of characters terminated by a line feed (LF, "\n") while (I guess) Windows just separates lines by a carriage return (CR, "\r", moves cursor back to the beginning of the line) followed by a line feed (only moves cursor down on some systems?).

This is why you often see empty lines at the end of files, it's the editor thinking the final \n means a new line, while it's really just a terminator for the preceding line as per POSIX' definition of a line.

Making my first iOS application. Learning how to do that, but also how to use [url=http://ionicframework.com/]Ionic Framework[/url], it literally took me 2 hours just to figure out how to build this.

[QUOTE=Tamschi;50026074]I'm starting out with my data structures class and this is the first Java example (main language of the course, but at least it's not Pascal):

public boolean contains (int[] s, int c)
{
  boolean b = false;
  for (int i = 0; i < s.length; i++)
    if (s[i] == c) b = true;
  return b;
}

Notice anything? The course text only says it's "obviously clumsy" [I]13 pages later[/I].

I think I understand now why so many people with CS degrees are terrible developers :cry:[/QUOTE]

I actually did something like this on purpose once for my [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_algorithms]AA[/url] class so the algorithm would always be linear and i wouldn't have to explain two different cases.
