  1. Re:'CruTcHy' - you haven't coded much have you? on Particle Physicists Confirm Arrow of Time Using B Meson Measurements · · Score: 1
    not that it matters, but I don't program C because I don't have a need for it (C is only better than other languages for low-level - such as hardware - stuff) and I also don't program python because as you eluded to it is for noobs (hence why you use it). I personally program PHP/JS/HTML/CSS/SQL mainly (that's what I get paid to do sometimes at the moment) but I get paid to do Delphi programming (although not as much as I used to). Your code was actually the first piece of python that I've ever debugged... its just a pity you seem to be incapable of doing the same.

    Easy - ALLOW for it during your checks in your filtering tests!

    you're right that it is easy to filter inputs, but not on keypress. you will need another event to handle that. that's why i mentioned events such as lostfocus, but there are of course others (keypress is definitely one event that can be used for partial input validation, but not on its own).

    if you have your so called "filter tests" (noobish terminology much) only in a keypress event, you will either allow invalid input (such as a lone "-" symbol) or you will prevent entering of valid inputs (such as "-5.4" for example).

    you are about as noob as they come APK, but you are definitely the most arrogant self-rightious noob I have ever come across, which makes you look even more stupid on this very public and open forum.

    btw, have you found that bug yet?

    Oh, so NOW 'CruTcHy' (lol) "flips the script" changing what he said, lol, "adding on to it"

    i quoted from the original message dipshit. i didn't add anything.

    getting pretty desperate aren't you?

    On user inputs, you USE KEYPRESS EVENTS in entry fields to trap bad data users may input.

    that's one way, but not necessarily the best because you may be trying to validate incomplete user input, so if a user startes by entering a minus symbol with the intention of entering a negative number, how can you validate that on keypress? the next key may be a number, which would make it valid, or they may move on leaving just an invalid minus symbol. using a keypress event handler is similar to a change event handler in that you can do something non-intrusive (like change the color of the text box label to red) as the user types until a valid input is achieved, but you shouldn't show any kind of intrusive error message until the user has actually finished entering their input (with an lostfocus or similar event).

    anyway, i know you won't even read this let alone understand it.

    you're also starting to get boring APK, so unless you can step up the intelligence of your conversation i'm probably going to move on

    parts fail regardless of whether you build yourself or buy oem... the difference is that oem shit is likely to fail sooner (as soon as the warranty runs out) and unless you're willing to pay a premium for after sales service, you'll get nothing but runarounds and idiots on the phone that you can't even understand when you need to get something fixed.

    i buy parts from my local store owner, who i can talk to in person and he's a local too. he gets parts as part of a national network, so cost is very cheap for decent brands.

    psu's are surprisingly expensive given that most modern decent systems need at least 700W

    i find that oem boxes will come with the minimum required for installed hardware, leaving no room for upgrading

    fortunately even if i spend $100 on a half decent psu i'll still finish up trumps compared to an equivalent spec'ed oem box
