what's the future for processors? will we hit a plateau and end up resorting to some new theory of machines and logic?

also, would it be possible to make a whole CPU from discreet transistors? how big would it be?

you're joking about the discreet transistors, right?

nah man we need to go back. think about all the pros vs. the cons B^)

>>45216942
Probably some grapheme based technology.
Yeah you could build a CPU with transistors. You could build one with tubes and marbles if you wanted to (in theory), but I don't know how large either would be.

You know when Microsoft started to go wrong?

When they decided that they will push what the company wants, rather than selling something that the consumers actually want.

Nobody wants this metro minimalist shit.

Microsoft is living on borrowed time and only exists because of their legacy and stranglehold of the desktop market with Windows 7.

I have 1,800 to buy an Ultrabook.

Tell me, what would you buy.

Put yourself in my shoes:

Living in Japan
Always on the go
Programming apps

Originally I said an Asus 305 or a thinkpad X1 but many jimmys were rustled.

So what light laptop would you buy? Also, has to be at most 15 inches.


Mac? No, girlfriend will be getting one.

Getting a new smartphone very soon, /g/. I can't decide between these, pick for me.

The Contenders are: Z3 Compact, OPO, Moto G, Moto X. I seriously can't make my mind up between these four, or are there better recommended ones? I'll put the order in tonight, budget isn't an issue. Also, which Moto gen is preferred? I've heard stuff on both of them.

Also been considering a HTC, but I don't really know anything about their models.

Why is /g/ against OOP? I haven't worked on huge projects and have no idea how to organize them but the idea of combining functions and data in logical units seems like a good idea. Why is making all functions global a better idea? Proper abstraction is always better and more powerful in anything.
54 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
/g/ isn't a person.
The backlash against OOP is because it's inappropriately applied to problems.
OOP isn't bad on principle, and can be useful or even beautiful, but overuse by idiots leads to the tremendous bloat we have today.

Trendoids latch on to the criticism and declare OOP universally bad, just like every programming paradigm that's behind the curve of hip/rockstar tech.
>>
>>45208891
I absolutely love OOP. I also love functional programming, though I admit I'm mediocre at it at best, and my current job (at a medium sized reverse engineering/porting/development project) doesn't leave me that much room to work on my functional skills yet. That project is using OOP with quite a few really nice patterns and principles. It's great, and life is pretty good right now.
I find that most people who are really against any given thing here are most likely quite inexperienced. I remember being very strongly for some things yet strongly against others when I was first starting out, though there are things I'd still rather not touch again, like PHP and JS. I got my very first few grey hairs while working with PHP, and JS (and Java for that matter) are the only languages that have succeeded to make me angry.

Recently, I heard someone talk about "friction" in programming, while he was laying out some ideas for a language he'd like to make, and it really got me thinking. The language, principles, methods and whatever else should be chosen by how much they help you achieve the task at hand. If I need to make a website, the language of choice is not going to be assembly, while both Python and C# look like valid options (Python is fast, fast, fast to write, but may not run as fast, while C# is fast and fairly secure, but takes ages to write and pretty much ties you to microsoft, for example). If I need to make a game, then it's possible, but not likely that a GC'd language is going to quite cut it. It all depends on the scope and aims of any given project.

OOP is not the only way to organize functions.

If you want to hear some anti OOP stuff, here's a basic reading list.

Why aren't you programming in C right now ?

Are you afraid of pointer arithmetic ?
Do you hate minimal execution time ?
Do you hate crafting every bit of your program ?
Do you hate the most efficient procedural language ever made ?
Do you hate one of the greatest monument to the glory of the human mind ?

Your average CS student does not know what a pointer or what a bit is, especially if they need to use for programming.
