There's no money in a cancer cure. Cuz ya know, people wouldn't pay money to cure their cancer. And cancer is just one disease that can be cured by a single drug lol.

@IS_Comet(TheComet):
Will check mail tomorrow.

Quote: "Someone should filter all messages containing useful information from The Posting Competition."

Indeed, one needs to be able to scrape for programming-related words first.
The Next Step (that was two puns, "The Next" and "Next Step") is to then analyse number of posts between each "cluster" of posts to separate them into smaller fragments.
Then a group of brave young lads (or old farts with nothing but time) each choose a cluster to work on "refining".

We can start a git sometime... Of course now that I have posted this, at least three people here are going to add programming-related terms to their posts. Example:

Quote: "
Points! And tips!

python callback
^lol I messed with your scraper.
"

Couldn't we just modify the program that someone uses for points to look for posts with certain keywords, like "C++", "DBP", or even project titles?

Then just cut out all the filler and see what happens.

Look at us, trying to make The Posting Competition useful.

@The Zoq2
He eventually came to realize that the Microsoft strings he was thinking of and C++ strings are different. He still doesn't think he's going to use them as he wants to know the exact instructions the CPU is executing. He wants to create a game engine (3D I would assume) without using OpenGL or DirectX and it's gonna be assembly-optimized.

I'm not sure if he's trolling or seriously misguided.

Oh goodness, look what I found for Mac... http://www.cheetah3d.com

It's some pretty great modeling/animation software, currently on sale for $69... I think I might buy it, I just tried the demo and was able to do a lot more than I currently can do in blender, because I could actually figure it out! Hooray!

This will make character animations so much easier to implement... not to mention it'll be great for 3D work in videos!

AAAAAND I'm getting points for it

[EDIT] It turns out he wishes to write a game engine ("assembly optimised") but he doesn't want to use OpenGL or DirectX because it is "too mainstream"

[EDIT2] - My C++ App has an embedded python interpreter, and I just made it possible to invoke it from within PyCharm. This means I can write my python code using an awesome IDE:

I'm going to start developing a game in Unity again, in order to complete one of my new years resolutions. I think I can do it, I mean I do have 5 months until the end of the year, and even if I don't finish it I can at least get it working for NaGaCreMo!

@TheComet: Mailz recieved. Shall reply tomorrow. Today was... Bad. Had to play catch-up (that's when you pretend to be tomato sauce) because there was a power outage the day before yesterday and it only ended yesterday evening. Nearly 24hrs with no electricity and my left eye started twitching and I started seeing alien space cats again. Lucky I've two laptops and a phone. Music kept me sane... until the last two hours.

Because banks don't have a sense of marketing aparently. Also, implying that it's common cents would make people believe that any money in the bank is shared with everyone thereby making it a pretty terrible bank.
