solution 1: spill over to second card.

solution 2: hash function

if classes didn't have such a terribly verbose syntax in basically every language that has them, i'd be less opposed to using them.

in java, c++, or c#, to add a variable to a class, you have to repeat its name 4 times. once to declare, once in the constructor parameters, and once on each side of the assignment. why am i writing the same thing 4 times for what should be a core part of the language?

in haskell, you write it once (i'm not saying haskell's records are nice, but they got that part right). same with rust.

and with a function, you write it once.

how is this website so ugly?

the linux thing is not universally true.

i have installed a few different distros on my w500 over the years, and it runs hot every time. the ati drivers suck, the os can't seem to control the fans properly, and switchable graphics don't work. tried with opensuse years ago, and ubuntu a few times more recently.

i imagine it's better with a nvidia card, and no switchable graphics.

does this guy not know how to use type declarations?

[1,2,3,4,5] :: [Int] problem solved!

dropping out to work on something can be a good idea. start while you're in school, and only drop out once you can't handle both, though. maybe take a light course load at first, and if your project really picks up steam, drop the courses.

dropping out to work for someone is just stupid.

the superhero stuff is fun. i have only been programming for ~3 years, though, so i'm probably closer to sidekick than superhero at this point.

architecture is fun too, but i don't do it as much as i probably ought to. and debugging is something i know i'll have to do, but try to avoid.
