Code Segment Puns

Do you think that code which looks like typical imperative code should be able to "magically" act reactively, meaning that some of the code in the program re-runs "automatically" whenever something it depends on has updated?

For example:

var x = 2;
console.log(`x: ${x}`);  // x: 2

We obviously expect that code to produce a single console statement of x: 2. But what if your programming language made that console.log(..) statement "reactive", wherein it would automatically re-run any time later when x is re-assigned:

setTimeout(() => {
   x = 3;   // x: 3
},100);

This is like extending the declarative nature of component-oriented programming (React, Vue, etc) -- where updating a piece of state implicitly forces a UI re-render -- into the internals of program state.

Svelte currently does something quite like this, but I think you mark a statement as being reactive with like a $: label in front of the line or something like that. But others are trying to make it just happen automatically in code without any explicit markers/syntax.

My question: do you think this is a healthy direction for programming languages to move?

What are the pros/cons in your view? Is this the kind of magic that a programming language needs?

1. Disable opponent team movement. Doesn't matter if the keeper is struggling to find an open teammate, they must stand idle behind an opponent.
2. Change aggression stats of every pressing opponent to 99. The base stats dosent matter.
3. Completely ruin possession teams passing stats. Make sure the ball from the defenders doesn't reach their midfielders so that it gets stolen and a simple ball will create a 1v1. Even a long ball will only reach a few metres allowing pressing team to get possesion.
4. Stamina drain stops. Why should stamina drain at all when my players are standing still and the opponents are just standing in front of them.
5. Severely increase chances of the pressing team winning every 50/50. So what if Ramos has the ball, since team press is on Dembele should be able to body him off the ball.

This is a project I've been working on for a while now. I have a barebones Arduino Uno hooked up to a shift register and LM35DZ temperature sensor, which then will allow me to read the analog signals from the LM35DZ and convert them into temperature in degrees Celsius. The shift register is there to control a four digit seven segment display, with the purpose of displaying the temperature readings. I have gotten an understanding of how the shift register works, and have managed to count from 0-9 on the four digit seven segment display using the shift register, that's all. I would love your tips and ideas on how I can display the temperature readings on the display, as I am personally having a hard time progressing. You can see my code so far here.

Thanks in advance!

I'm looking for the time Code or even just the episode name or number where Ben did the impersonation of Fauci. I think it was aired a couple of days ago but haven't been able to find it yet. Thanks for the help.

Hey everyone, so I am working on a little project right now involving a 16 bit ADC and the code I am writing rn will find the scale factor from the ADC output to the battery. My issue is regarding the code and I will be thinking about it while waiting for some feed back so i might figure it out beforehand.

Rn, from the void loop(void), I am calling a method called batteryScaleFactor() and this calls another method that ask for a string from the serial monitor. It does not/shouldnt return the string until it is entered. From here, this method calculate the scale factor from another method that finds the moving Average.

Not too bad right? well i am having some issues. First, The program runs through the loop before I enter anything in and it will keep doing that instead of waiting for a input. Ex below

My end goal is to be able to ask for a few inputs and make a linear approximation but the way it looks like, I dont know how to only send the certain numbers(scaleFactor) to another method/or same without it sending 0.00 or how to make it completly wait for an input without going through the loop

If i am not clear about anything please let me know and ill respond asap! Thank you!

• Enter a float for the battery power level.
• 0.00 //entered value
• 0.00 //entered value
• 0.00 //entered value

1. String serialTexttoString() {
3. static boolean newData = false;
4. const byte numChars = 32; // how many char the array can hold
5. char receivedChars[numChars]; // an array to store the received data
6. byte ndx = 0;
7. char endMarker = '\n';// "\n or "Enter" means a new line"
8. char rc;
10. //input will be converted to a string
12. while (Serial.available() > 0 && newData == false)
13. {
14. rc = Serial.read();
16. if (rc != endMarker)
17. {
18. receivedChars[ndx] = rc;// wouldnt that just put null in each case and increment the index?
19. ndx++;
20. if (ndx >= numChars)
21. {
22. ndx = numChars - 1; // not to go over the array size
23. }
24. }
25. else
26. {
27. receivedChars[ndx] = '\0'; // terminate the string and making that last index the terminating
28. ndx = 0;
30. Serial.print("You entered: ");
31. Serial.print(receivedChars);
32. Serial.println();
34. }
35. }
36. return receivedChars;
37. }
39. float batteryScaleFactor() ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Hey guys,

We are currently tracking data from GA using the Segment GA integration. We have data coming in but the behavioral metrics & pageviews are skewed and I am suspecting there was some sort of duplication issue.
When I looked at the source code, I found this error: Segment snippet included twice

!function(){var analytics=window.analytics=window.analytics||[];if(!analytics.initialize)if(analytics.invoked)window.console&&console.error&&console.error("Segment snippet included twice.");

Could that be the origin of the duplication? If so how can I fix it since when I look the GA destination on Segment, only one destination seems to be pointing to the GA tracking code?

Couldn't find anything on Youtube or Google. Just No Hit/No Damage Segmented Boss Runs but not an actual Single Segment No Hit Run like in the Souls games, Bloodborne or Sekiro. So if nobody has done it before, is it actually possible?

I guess Blade Bearer & Cannoneer might be one reason that nobody actually went for it since it is pretty tough to not get hit by anything in that fight consistently...

While I’m somewhat amused when I see it, I’m also pretty pissed off that MSM continues to tell the world the squeeze has done squoze.

Has anyone been archiving FUD?

It’s really important that after the MOASS, non-🦍 know who the media actually serves.

Nothing has been more damaging to every day, working class people than the MSM that pretends to have their best interests at heart.

So yeah, I think we should have an archive with unedited articles & segments for all to see POST-MOASS.

Collectively they could be called the FUD Packers.

Thoughts? Is this happening already? Can someone more technically savvy make this happen?

I’ve attempted googling this many times with no luck. I was programming with Java and everything was fine until about 15 minutes before I was about to be finished for the day. When running the code, a segment will run, and then it’ll just stop and sit there and I have to press enter to get the next segment to run. Such as entering a number, I have to press enter twice to get the following code to run. Is this an accidental keyboard stroke I made? I’ve never had an IDE do this before, wtf is it?
