So should we call this Xexit or just Xit?

It’s a the right shift assignment operator so x >>= 4
right shifts x by 4 and assigns the result back to x. The code editor is displaying single double wide symbol (ligature) instead of the three character long operator >>=
, I discovered today these are in fact well loved by some coders.
I agree, but it is going to increase the charging time for a car by quite a bit unless the USB spec advances significantly.
The OU has always had strong distance learning teaching, I have a family member who pivoted to a new career thanks largely to getting a degree with the OU. Also completing a degree through a remote program from and provider is a great indicator of your resolve and tenacity and can easily be a great selling point to future jobs etc.
It of course depends on the context and choice of ethics framework. If the decision is personal I like to use the shorthand: If you have the privilege to choose, then choose to build the type of future you want to live in.
One great use I have found for ChatGPT and family is helping me divine command line one-liners for standard shell programs. Generating commands for tools like ffmpeg are also reasonably successful and saves a lot of time digging through man files
That’s neat, so TIL ligature in code do actually have a strong following
Well done!
ffmpeg is my go to for things like this but I can never remember the necessary incantation on the command line. Fortunately ChatGPT tends to get you most of the way there a lot of the time, I would normally asks something like the following and start from there:
How to convert a folder of png images into a gif using ffmpeg?
This is my reality too, although maybe a little less pronounced as I can still drink decaf coffee. It was such a profound uptick in my mental health when I cut out caffeine, so I don’t think I’ll be going back anytime soon.
Op this is the guide you need! I’ll leave my link up as comparison in quality of the guide a knowledgable human produces vs that predicted by an ml model
I think you were looking for anglicisation the other is an Americanisation
Hey just took a look at the GitHub and I see one main.cpp so far are, you set on c++ or have you considered other languages such as rust?
LGTM. Though do people really code with ligatures turned on?
Edit: Ok so there are some big advocates of ligatures, I’m going to have to give them a second chance. I’ll try for a week, and either way that Fira Code font looks great.
