Hahaha! Right on target!
I am not really into politics and not even going to post my stance on the president and the would have been. it’s humorously in masochistic kind of way where the world is headed. No matter who would have won.
I am working on a classic 80’s flashback game sort of. it’s a spinoff of one of my favorites from the 80’s and others. I don’t know when I will be done. I haven’t really spent much time programming probably done about 6 hrs in the last two months. Family life, lack of interest in programming and personal difficulties have gotten on the way. hopefully I can get back to normal soon.
If you are trying to be politically correct, that train is a wreck and that is its pink colored smoke coming down. If you know what I mean.
LOOOOOOOOOL. And that end-tune, well…Yea pink clouds sound very interesting.
actually it’s a nice demo.
I don’t always feel like solving puzzles. I have a very short span for solving problems and quite good at doing it. If I spend too much time to solve them I loose interest So a lot of times I don’t even bother unless it’s something quite important to me.Haha! You think to much.
Obviously not, but it’s a bother so no thanks.
How I wish I had an interest in riddles.
g!Based on the rules I know from blitzBasic and BlitzMax which have helped me with Monkey2 so far the rule is:
doubles take precedence over float and floats take precedence over int. So in a direct formula with with doubles,
floats and integers(no brackets included and no casting) everything will be cast to double and the result will be double no matter the order. if the formula includes floats and integers everything will be cast to float and the result will be a float. same principle with double and int. I am not an expert on the subject but it has helped me well until now.I kind of agree but I think, it being open for public discussion, even on forums that don’t do nothing but bashing, is good for publicity so I don’t think its so bath for the language after all. So people will come and check it out and will decide by themselves. I say just ignore all the negativity and keep chipping away. I am sure not everything is negativity.
Anyway I have faith guys and as long as Mark keeps with this language I will be here. The donations will keep him here as long they are there. If he leaves for another language, I will be here still and will not be moving on. I am 50 and will not be giving him another chance as I am thinking I am getting too old to start with something else, I guess, even if I was much younger. Based on what I have read on the forums. I am thinking Mark is years older than I am and I am thinking he has already considered that possibility as well and hope he takes in consideration the age thing before he starts or plan his next language project. I am thinking this needs to be his best closing show.
I remember when I first started using BlitzMax. there was a lot of bashing of the language. a lot of programmers who were used to BlitzBasic and Blitz3d were complaining about blitzMax that it wasn’t as good or as fast as BlitzBasic or Blitz3D or that it was too complex but but a lot of those naysayers are now praising BlitzMax doing the same complaints to Monkey2. I think a lot of them will change their minds sooner or later and some of them that feel offended by the new language, Marks decisions and have to much pride will not. I have seen some programmers that said that they will move to other Language because of Marks decision, are back.
I personally don’t think that Mark will make another language and that if he keeps the efforts he promised this will be come a great language but only time will tell. And will see a lot of those complainers here sooner or later. I say just give it time.
Hey Nerobot, thank you for your hard work and your efforts with this IDE. It has really been useful to me and great help. I don’t know if you are getting donations from the download page but you really should be. it is great work you are doing. you should do something like what Mark is doing for Monkey2, sell the precompiled latest update to whoever donates and give it to whoever have donated :). Keep the public code one or two steps behind. Just a suggestion. sometimes people need some sort of motivation. I wish this website allowed signatures that way you could add a donation button to your signature.
Its the administrator home folder. The one for my Macbook Pro is MBP/users/legend as my administrator account is legend and that is where I have the monkey2 folder. /users/yourusersname folder is your home folder.
why don’t you install the monkey2 in the default home directory no the applications directory. It should stop all your problems.
Do you have the latest Xcode and developer tools installed?
check if there is a python folder in your applications folder.
if you are not sure the developer tools are installed, try this to attempt and install the developer tools:
xcode-select —install
it will tell you if they are installed or not.
or you might want to manually install python:
https://docs.python.org/3/using/mac.html
Yes, I see this thread being made as an attempt to humiliate and embarrass(it may not be true but thats how I see it.) but I don’t think it’s a fair comparison or a good idea due to the way monkey2 is being worked on. I am also sure Mark knows it’s weakness but has to decide between working on the language or working on the documentation. So, the question is what should he focus on? as it stand We need programers to step up and attempt to help either by creating their own tutorials and or good documentations instead of putting it down. I am not a good coder or a good documenter. I don’t even document my own stuff but I am willing to help, not much, but can offer my help if useful.
