As someone who was afflicted by CSS, translateZ(0.001px) sounds normal, like the sort of thing which somehow fixes a browser rendering bug.

That's exactly it. When an element moves from having a transformon it to not, it changes the rendering and makes the edge aliasing look different. Sticking a low translate Z on elements that will have translate on them at some point works around that.

There was also a sign up form for some stuff where the year was set to 2021, I had to change it to 2022 last year and I've changed it to 2023 this year. There are reasons why we can't just use the real date, but I honestly just want to add a config variable for it so I don't have to adjust in code.

0:05 actually makes sense. I do this in my code sometimes to make sure that the unexpected case doesn't happen. Depending on the language, this may even be the only way to make sure you handle all cases in a switch on an enum, especially as you add new values to the enum.

⁠@@OniKrisNeptune In this case we’re executing a function based on the input. I’d probably create a map with key of type string and value of a function and store it in that. It would lead to a constant time since it just has to do a hash lookup compared to the O(n) time that the switch statement has.

Depends on the programming language. Most compiled languages like C++ cannot do "reflection" without an extended/third-party library, so what you see in the video is realistically the only way to handle it in a way that's readable and easy to communicate what you were trying to accomplish. Interpreted languages like Python can usually handle reflection and don't need to do this roundabout method.

[@TheBypasser]

@@Chaooo It is clearly not C/C++ though, as what are those cases? Pointers to string constants? It will not even compile, but should it, what would it be, comparing a pointer to some other one? Why, if they are very likely not equal.

[@Chaooo]

@@TheBypasser Yes, I know that is not C nor C++. I would've immediately noticed that it was as I was trained in C++ in a previous job. The first example looks like TypeScript to me. The cases are a string being used as input, so based on the input, a function of the same name will be invoked (hence the empty parentheses after the symbol name, like "chick()"). Is that what you're asking? If the programming language is able to do "reflection", then you wouldn't need this long switch statement. You would just run the string through a list of acceptable inputs and then invoke the function name. For instance, using pseudocode: ``` # Define the class. class CommentHandler CommentHandler.WritePost = {function definition} CommentHandler.ReadPost = {function definition} # Define vars. object myHandler = new CommentHandler string user_input = (user input) array valid_inputs = ["WritePost", "ReadPost"] # Check if "user_input" is valid. if user_input not in valid_inputs: raise InvalidInputException() # Return the result of the class method where the class method chosen is based on the "user_input" variable. class_method reflected_method = myHandler.getMethod(user_input) return myHandler.invoke(reflected_method) ```

@@Chaooo Just sayin' :P In fact, this is a very common VB/VBS approach as those lack the function pointers. For C/C++ I always use call tables though (and it seems everyone does), especially as usually a code like this is a user command decoder of some sort, and in order to keep those command systems user-friendly the table also gets stuff like a help text and alike.

The 'true = false' thing has me questioning some people's sanity. Hope that's a joke.

[@baileyharrison1030]

It wouldn’t compile anyway

[@keshi5541]

If true = false. Lets think about this logically. Wouldn't the fact that true = false itself be false but again something that is false is true. Makes my head hurt. It would mean something is factually inaccurate and completely inaccurate that the same time.

What does that last program do? I've been staring at it for a while and I can't figure it out. It's very slow for n>20. Currently working on optimizing it so I can plot the output.

[@Hwyadylaw]

The algorithm has a time complexity of O(2^n), so each increment of n by 1 more than doubles the execution time. Maybe this pseudo-code helps: x = 0 for each integer i in [2, 2^n): k = number of 1s in the binary representation of i increment x if k is not a multiple of any integer j in [2, sqrt(k)]

[@hacatu]

@@WhaleIsOnline This is fairly easy to solve, but it's mostly a math problem not a cs problem. First, the most 1s that a number up to 2^n could have is n, so we need to find all primes up to n. Then, for each prime p, we can count the number of primelovers with p 1s by calculating (n choose p). So the number of primelovers up to 2^n is just sum((n choose p) for p
