[QUOTE=Dj Yoshi]Seriously, I made a good point that writing doesn't help me figure out any of my programs[/QUOTE]

You didn't make a point at all. Your "point" was that because you aren't able enough to benefit from hand-coding and writing pseudo-code, everyone who does is mentally incapacitated.

Good job.

Good job.

No, I never said that. You guys assumed it. I said it sounded like a waste of time, and never helped me.

Seriously, stop jumping on me everytime I say something. It's getting old.

EDIT: Okay, now I see where I might have offended someone. By mentally incapacitated I meant crazy, not stupid. Sorry.

Hey anakin, I have a question about Boot Camp and I was wondering if you MIGHT have an answer.

The current build of Boot Camp does not utilize the full power of the Graphics card and other hardware things. Is the new build of Boot Camp going to have better drivers that would allow some better functionality to play some 3d Games in Boot Camp?


According to what we have 'heard' yes the next version of bootcamp will be much better, we hear that it will be released by the end of the month. So heres hoping.
Flying over there some were...

[QUOTE=Dj Yoshi]Except I type about 100 wpm. I write about 20. I somehow doubt I'll save any time.

Algorithms and psuedo-code are one thing, handwriting programs is just a sign of mental incapacity.[/QUOTE]

Who said that you have write everything explicitly on a piece of paper? I write sloppy for extra speed; only the author has to be able to read his or her work. I don't fully spell method and variable names, usually shortening them to single letters or symbols (several chemistry and physics courses can make one easily adopt the greek alphabet :P ). I don't consider coding standards when writing. The priority is to get all ideas on the paper for later reference; aesthetics don't matter. Overall, such measures can save a lot of time instead of just typing and staring at a computer screen, straining your eyes as you think about something you didn't prepare for. Of course, another big benefit is that you can easily see if your code is optimal before you use a computer. In RL, the first version can be garbage (in comparison to what would be realized as a better alternative); there is no point typing and debugging it if you can scrap it ahead of time.

I also design programs (on the scope of a set of classes), write essays, and complete some random tasks (ex. cutting my nails) with scrap paper. It's a versatile medium.

WTF do you mean that handwriting a program is essentially a sign of mental incapacity? Seriously, STFU.

Good job at not reading the rest of the thread chief. You're telling me to STFU for something I cleared up a few posts back.

Apparently it is a sign of mental incapacity :v:

No, I had read the entire thread and saw your edit before I posted.

STFU just felt right.

Then you're an idiot. Yeah, I apologized for the misconception, and yet you still used that misconception to try and insult me and tell me to STFU. Good job man.
