programming refers to the process of designing, debugging, maintaining etc the source code of computer programs. it is done by people like this:

nerds-13814.jpg

[chat]ting refers to the communal joking, arguing, sniping, sexing, herping, derping, and socialization of a bunch of internet people. coincidentally, i have a group portrait on hand of our [chat] community:

nerds-3.jpg

there's… a bit of overlap

on some real talk though programming rulesssssssssss

i still have (i think) the first program i ever wrote! before i knew anything about modulo!
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main (int argc, const char * argv[])
{
    
    int sum1 = 0;
    int sum2 = 0;
    int sum3 = 0;
    int total;
    
    for (int i = 3; i < 1000; i=i+3)
        sum1 = sum1 + i;
        
        
    for (int i = 5; i < 1000; i=i+5)
        sum2 = sum2 + i;
    
    for(int i = 15; i < 1000; i=i+15)
        sum3 = sum3 + i;
    
    total = (int)sum1 + (int)sum2 - (int)sum3;
    
    printf("The sum of all natural multiples of three (%d) and five (%d) through 1,000, excepting \n overlap from common multiples (%d) is %d.\n", sum1, sum2, sum3, total);
    
    return 0;
}

now it's six months later and i'm writing an interactive scrabble helper type application!

so talk about variables and typecasting and finite math… or, i don't know. talk about boobs and french films, like usual.



on some real talk, mods ain't happy about how y'all have been acting. since will has been, like, programming stuff and doing bar trivia, kosh does a lot of the modding in this forum by himself. he was angry at what happened today and next time (let there not be a next time, neckbeards!) it might take him more than a few hours to decompress from all the stress this thread gives him. please just be nice!

    s'alright. The family dynamic is pretty interesting, and Ginnifer Goodwin is adorable.

    After the drama and stakes are amped up a bit in the later seasons, though, I lost interest a little.

    I borrowed the first season off my sister while she's on her honeymoon, but I keep delaying watching it because of things like re-watching early Dexter

    might start it in the post-Christmas lull

    I'm going to be in the minority here and say that Mission Impossible 4 was disappointing and didn't even come close to living up to its hype. If I wanted to watch a Roger Moore-era James Bond movie, I would've watched a Roger Moore-era James Bond movie.

    And if I wanted a minority report, I'd watch Minority Report.

    I'm not really sure but I think the impossible mission was to make a movie solely out of plot holes.

    Mission Impossible 1:
    They get disavowed and have to clear their names by breaking into shit

    Mission Impossible 2: We don't talk about Mission Impossible 2.

    Mission Impossible 3:
    They get disavowed and have to clear their names by breaking into shit

    Mission Impossible 4:
    They get disavowed and have to clear their names by breaking into shit


    You'd think they'd get it right by now. Or at least find an employer that doesn't fucking throw them to the wolves the first time someone farts in an elevator.

    It's kinda similar to how quite a few Star Trek films:
    Require the crew to disobey orders and effectively go rogue for a while.
    It's like a cultural thing in American cinema.

    Stay pure Richy. The only reason to watch 2 was if you somehow hadn't heard how bad 2 was. The only reason to watch 3 was because it was supposed to be an apology for sitting through 2.

    I'm surprised that the franchise has made it to four films, even though the only thing anyone remembers about the source material is the theme song.

    The only MI episode I saw was one where:
    The guy they're after is safely holed up in a nuclear bunker, so they fake a nuclear holocaust to trick him into coming out.

    Did you know that it was made by the same studios (and at the same time) that made Star Trek?

    I think his reasoning is that after such a thing nobody would be looking for him, and he'd need to stock up on supplies eventually so no time like the present!
