ctps: really want to build some sort of basic space simulation thing, perhaps simply trying to model our own solar system at first. visually i'm imagining the overhead view in stellaris.

it sounds like a distraction but i'm pretty interested in space and space physics and among many other things i've been vaguely considering computational astronomy if i go back to school.

e: yah i'm gonna try this, does anyone know anything about it? I'm probably picking up this book: https://www.amazon.com/Astrophysics-PC-Introduction-Computational/dp/0943396433

Just use Kerbal, not a big deal?

Yeah, that's what I told her but it's like my boss tells me: "The customer is always right". Tell her I appreciated the tip and ask if she found my commemorative Apollo-Soyuz Test Project knit cock-sock. It has sentimental value to me and I think I left it on her nightstand?

I've literally never programmed anything more than pasting together powershell poo poo from stack exchange. :(

Mind you, I don't especially want to be a programmer but I'd like to at least be able to go :hmmyes: and fake it like I sort of can with processors.

Is there like an equivalent of this but for software?

I once had a tooth pulled for which I got the one that’s Tylenol and some opiate. I took one then fell asleep extremely worried I wasn’t going to ever wake up but unable to do anything about it.

:shudder:

I’ve never really “gotten” the appeal of opiates.

Visual Studio still supports WinForms for VB/C#
it’s dull as ditchwater and but it gets ‘er done. Basically a wrapper around the old win32 C/C++ api. A total revolution over having to do this in native.



though I’d suspect that the people that really knew that API are hitting retirement
so if this old rear end corner of windows needs maintenance any kid that gets the task has a lot to learn

are modern javascript libraries exclusively developed by insane people?

I started using React as I wanted to dabble with actually nice webpages instead of the usual drivel I produce for people and it feels really weird. Usually I pick up syntax stuff pretty fast when learning a new language but it's doing my head in.

Developed but also used by, so I’m afraid I have some bad news...
