Considering there are clearly tons of programmers/learning programmers here I think we should make a thread where we can talk about different programming languages and help each other out, I'm currently messing around in OpenGL though I suspect if I want to make anything functional like a game I'm going to have to properly get into C++ too, feel free to post code here of stuff you're working on and need help with etc.
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glPushMatrix();
glTranslatef(-0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f);
glPushMatrix();
glRotatef (90.0f, -180.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
glPopMatrix();
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(0.5f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.5f, 1.0f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.5f, 0.0f); glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 1.0f);
glEnd();
glPopMatrix();
I made a pink pentagon, WEEEEEEEEE!  Can't figure out how to get GLRotatef working though. |

I got a fortune that told me that one day I was going to be rich and famous, doesn't mean it's true though lol  |

I'm also finding the groupings a bit weird. Maybe if you're going to do "Europe" as a group you could also add in general groups for Asia, Oceania, South America, etc. It's a bit odd to name two Asian countries but not name a couple of European countries.
I'm pretty sure this person must be American to make such a stupid poll. |

I think so but it depends on the person, some people will stay close-minded no matter who they are but you also have to make sure that the documentary you're doing is actually factual and not just a scare mongering piece like a lot of the stuff televised news throws out.

It's like someone took the people we regularly argue with about Bitcoin and then gave them moderating powers lol.

Well I'm mostly learning C++ and OpenGL, yeah I'm using Codeblocks and the more I mess with it the more helpful it's being, but there are times like when I'm using glTranslate and glRotate that the help decides to bugger up on me and I can't get the code working because it demands that I do two different things in the same line. When it does work nothing happens, maybe I should post what I'm working with too? I think I just need to look into the code a bit more though. Edit: I just figured out what I did wrong with glTranslate at least sometimes I just need to look at the code when I'm less tired. |

https://btcjam.com/listings/2252Here you go, it was just on BTCJam so I'm not that surprised really, but that's why I only put in a small amount, the main problem is he seems to have buggered off with a lot of other peoples' money as well, oh and at least I'm not like those people who lose hundreds upon hundreds of BTC Lethn 0.1 2013-03-06 09:10:20 UTC

So here's another random thread I'm making about programming and great news, I'm actually vaguely beginning to understand this stuff the more I mess around which seems to be how a lot of people learn anyway, there's only one problem though, I want to learn what every little bit of code means properly rather than just wtfing about it if I change something. Then I realised there is such a thing for this, a glossary! I've been searching around and found some stuff that's been helpful but what I'd really like is something that's near enough complete and explains every little thing out there in the language for you. http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~evs/intro/handouts/prog-glossary.htmlhttp://www.computerhope.com/jargon/program.htmDoes anyone have better lists than this? Or does such a glossary not exist right now? |

Yes, just like how when someone says their investment is solid or they write in capslock.

From an experience I've just had, always be suspicious of people who have taken out several loans at once and they haven't taken steps to repay, chances are it's a grab and run strategy.

Well this is my first scam accusation thread, there's a guy on BTC called nexusakachus that I lent money too as well as a bunch of others on these loans he put up, this person owes me the loan of 0.1 BTC I pooled in with other people, probably not going to get the interest back but I'd both like to warn people or get my money back without interest if he is honest.
I am making this thread so others can post here because he has an active account on Bitcointalk, I have patiently waited until the very last due date for him to pay me back and it hasn't happened, in hindsight it was a stupid thing to do because he was clearly overextending himself with the amount of loans he had taken out but I know better now.

Yeah, saw this as well, I'm seriously considering now adopting Bitcoin entirely, I have a co-op bank account and thought they were fairly safe, I'm actually thinking about having a serious talk with my parents to try and convince them to buy some Bitcoins, even a small percentage will probably help them a lot.

I'm a strictly self-defence, defence of others person kind of guy, I do however believe if that you're going to have gun control the people policing should have to obey the same rules as well and come up with other forms of defence against guns which I'd actually be happy to help with if that were the case. Anything else is just a power grab and shows that governments only want to have complete control over us.

including details of their postings on social networking websites and about family members. Now why the fuck would you need details about other people in order to file taxes or not pay them at all? I'm glad I don't live in the U.S. |

I have also decided to accept Litecoin payments for my Jewellery, I will be making more stuff and I'll post more photo's up over time.

I'll tell you what this actually is, it is of course politicians being as stupid as ever, but it is also that they'll be desperate to not officially acknowledge Bitcoin as a currency, if they do, then that means there will be all sorts of different rules involved with Bitcoin and they may even have to declare it as a currency entirely seperate from the state.
You can bet that the central banks won't be having that because it would be a direct threat to them.

It depends, if his conditions included something like making government debt illegal and going back to a standard of money that couldn't be easily hyper-inflated then I'd be all for it, even if a scenario like that doesn't really exist now problem is, if you gave someone like the US government a free ride they'd take it and abuse the shit out of it like they've been doing with peoples money for almost a century now. Edit: Oh wait, I was sleepy and I didn't notice you said Liberals LOL silly neo-conservative. |

EDIT: But I do get it now. I didn't realize when I came upon Bitcoin that there were so many libertarians involved. Again, totally those people right. But it's also within my right to label these people crazy, tin-foil hat consiracy theorists who would rather see the whole world burn and would love nothing more than use Bitcoin to do. Just know, I'm not on your side and if you can't beat me in a debate, you have no chance in the real world. Just thought I'd say speaking as someone with Libertarian/Anarchist beliefs, I don't want to see the 'whole' world burn, I just want to see the world of people like you crumble around you because it can only exist through the theft of other peoples' wealth. People like you conveniently forget that when you actually take action and don't pay taxes, you go to jail, our current society does not exist on a voluntary basis, if I could completely abandon this system I would, that's why I support Bitcoin. |

Never believe anything a politician says, even if they're telling you the truth they're probably hiding something.
