Is learning assembly worth it?
If so, which language?
>>54853837
I think everyone who is serious about being a good programmer should learn a little bit to get a better understanding of lower level CPU details, but really the only people who *need* to know it are compiler/OS writers and CPU designers (and maybe a few other really low level types I can't think of at the moment). So the answer is yes, just don't get too sucked into it unless you plan on going into any of those professions I mentioned, because otherwise it becomes a waste of time quickly.

Yes, you can only get so far without understanding what the compiler is doing. Understanding assembly won't hurt you at all. x86 is the dominant instruction set, but I'm starting with 6502 because it's simpler and more resources to learn from.
>>54853837
Start out with a simple architecture, with a small instruction set. I like MIPS a whole lot.
A good way of learning is translating C-code, and then optimising. Comparing the cycle-count of optimised assembly and the C-code, motivates you to continue.

What is the absolute GOD TIER of app icons and why is it Apple's Weather app?
why is it god tier?
why are there tiers? they're app icons. do you really think about this that much?
>>54853667
That shit is Fisher-Price tier
>>54853683
This. The only thing I like about iOS icons is that they are mostly consistent, even for third-party apps.
What do you use as your main machine /g/? What do you do most of your stuff on?
Desktop?
Laptop?
Tablet?
>tfw don't have a nice comfy laptop as my main machine
>have to power up a gayming rig just to shitpost on /g/
Good thing mummy pays for electricity bill.
>>54853557
desktop as my main machine cause i'm not a faggot who only has a laptop.
I mostly browse the web and shitpost on /g/ and /b/. I also edit alot of pictures and sometimes game.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Core Prime (the cheapest samsung phone) and i don't use it as much more than an mp3 player.
This morning i woke up to a dead battery. The history shows the phone was "awake" but the screen wasn't on. Is the phone "awake" for some auto-update thing? How could i check for what caused it?
>>54853534
You can just take educated guesses or look at the details on app usage pertaining to your battery. Facebook is usually the number one cause for terrible battery life on every android phone ever. Just uninstall apps one by one until the problem goes away and then you'll know which app is the culprit.
>>54853617
It says that the operating system uses up the most battery life.

Getting a new phone this month, got it down to these two. Any thoughts on this or feedback from people who have or did have one or both of these?

Whats /g/ preferred cell phone coverage provider?
Are dropped calls even a thing anymore? How much do you pay and what do you get
Im on verison right now and my reception is really inadequate
Verizon is the only company with towers anywhere near where I live so I into Verizon.
AT&T via Straight Talk
I don't stream, just browse. 4G in my town but not in my side of the county. LTE in the big city. $45 a month I can't complain. ~120 dollar LG phone has starting rotting. Need a nexus.
>>54853544
Verizon. It's shit, but it's the only one with passable service where I live.

Work for a crappy company and I think they are using fake copies of windows, should I report them to get a reward or is this low even by /g/ Standards?
>>54853422
Do you like your company? The reward isn't that good.
>>54853422
Do it.
I did it multiple times, just let them burn.

Why don't we all just hold hands and sing Kumbaya? Delusional idiot.

Nvidia got complacent. Like MS during the WinME days. They deserve to be overtaken

Intel is bailing from desktop computing. Take a fucking hint.
Say, does self-learning actually work when it comes to programming?
People would always say 'learn to code' but I hardly suspect it's ever that simple. How can I employ self-learning in a way that I can actually be a good programmer? What are some good resources and things to do to make sure I'm actually learning? Also, where to start if I genuinely want to commit long-term to programming? I'm not necessarily looking for a job here, it's just something I've always wanted to do.
pls don't sink. I know you get plenty of those "I want to code" posts but I'm genuinely serious and I know exactly how hard it's going to be
I neglected mentioning that I took an Intro to Python course in college, and I'm generally just looking for something to do in my summer vacation. It would also increase my graduation credentials as a mechanical engineer (still a 2nd year so it's a good chance)
try creating something you find interesting (a platformer game)
when you get stuck, google it.

Hello /g/
What's the best software for recording video games right now? I havent bothered recording anything for like three years and the last thing I used was FRAPS and I remember not liking it
shadowplay
>>54853275
OBS
AMD GVR/RPTR if no nvidia card.
If nvidia, shadowplay.
