I have a great performance optimization for this
What if instead of 1s sleep, we did 0.5s sleep? That’s a 100% improvement.
It’s not sleeping for 1 second, $1 is an input parameter in the script
That sounds expensive
I took it as meaning sleep for a number of seconds equal to half the value you’re sorting. So like
f "(( $1 / 2 ))" &or however math works in bash, I always forget.Bash is the worst
Yes but also skill issue
I bet you also tell people you love regex because you think it makes you look smarter lol
What if you do love regex? 🥺
For anyone who controls time travel this is the fastest algorithm ever. Probably gonna change everything when we are traveling through space and passing by some dark holes.
The output isn’t guaranteed to be correct though. Most implementations of sleep can only guarantee that it will sleep for at least the amount of time specified. It can sleep for longer though.
I remember seeing discussions about this at the time, it would also sometimes fail with a very large number of 1s and a single 2.
Even as a joke, this doesn’t avoid anything. The system scheduler just has to do the sorting using a regular algorithm
Most of the time
stay away from the edge cases and everything will be fine

…on my machine.
Perfect, we’ll just spin up an image of your machine in EC2, give it a public IP, set the default network rules to “allow any any” and we’re good. And I have no idea why the security team just all quit.
The git commit comment when pushing to prod is just: WCGW?
… alternate ending: YOLO!
and that’s how docker was invented
That’s why we invented docker! Instead of trying to fix, just copy your whole machine
No wonder he was the captain of the Black Perl…
And the dinghy got him all the way to dock. What more could anyone want.

It runs, just nothing happens and no error pops ANYWHERE!!!
Minecraft, quintessentially
I want to learn C# or Python for game dev, but it looks…daunting.
Anyone got advice?
“Automate the boring stuff with python” to start. As an added bonus you’ll have more downtime as you go.
Start by using an existing engine like renpy to get flow and math. Then expand to other engines.
I would start (if you havent already) with an introduction to CS. You can take CS50 for free online - https://cs50.harvard.edu/x/2025/.
I dont think they cover much C# (I took the 2020 course and they didnt) but they do introduce you to C, C++, Python, html, etc. They provide github codespaces available for anyone for free, so you can complete the weekly labs and problem sets offered in the course. It really is a good jumping off point.
Learn rust for game dev, develop the game in rust, and then brag about how your game is written 100% in rust (nerds will be extremely impressed, for maximum clout release it under GPL V3 with native Linux support).
Then remake Rust in rust
But first you need to make a custom Risc-V CPU optimized for rust (and minimal memory leaks) and then port a custom Arch fork (completely rewritten in rust ofc) so you can run OxideFetch
gameplay doesn’t matter. If it’s written in rust it will automatically be fun.
Be sure to regularly defrag your C: drive or things might slow down.
I know a bit of python and ruby, but doing something similar except I’m writing it in BASIC on a Commodore 64 and am going to attempt to refactor it assembly. I have most of the BASIC version working now.
Code looks more terrifying than it actually is
After learning the basics of a programming language, you could try using a game engine like Unity or Godot to not have to code a lot of more complicated things like displaying things and collisions
Find a different career choice!
Software development is all stress all the time and I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing and I really don’t think this much stress at 34 is healthy even with the salary
I think your description covers many career choices in a capitalist society.
This… Is a very good point.
I think software development is a good career, but game development specifically is certainly not. It’s a fine hobby though. Also, learning development through a hobby is fine.
… In the wrong direction.
