MatPat started to get on my nerves years ago, but I'll give the man credit: it was easy to just stop watching his videos. The only time I saw him after that is when he made a guest appearance on Pitch Meeting and that was actually a cool cameo. He's not one of those people you just can't get away from. He never (to my knowledge) got mixed up in some horrible controversy or anything, he just kept doing his thing and if you don't watch him you wouldn't know him.

Anyway, I feel for you, it sucks when someone you're a fan of stops doing the thing you love.

I don't think Leonardo Da Vinci has a worst song.

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

As a tall man I can tell you that it's not just a short person problem.

Serious question: how are male and female defined, and why does the sea horse that gets pregnant count as male and not female?

Oh, and if you really want a tough language, try Malbolge. The ratio of structured code to spaghetti code in that one is 0:1 - there are 0 instances of non-spaghetti code, and 1 instance of spaghetti code. I refuse to believe there's any more code other than the Hello World example.

I think we're going to have to agree to disagree. If any project in any language has well-organized code, it's down to a ton of effort.

Assembly is harder to code in, period. It's even harder when your code is a total mess and you didn't plan ahead. For a large assembly project to survive at all, some structure is as necessary as oxygen. And not to mention, there are far fewer projects written in assembly anyway.

Okay, I'll grant you brainfuck... As for assembly, I don't think it's inherently spaghetti. You can split it up into functions just like you can with an actual programming language. It's not impossible to make structured code.

That said, I never coded assembly outside of a mandatory university course, so I don't feel super confident in saying that. But I don't think of it as a programming language anyway - it's a 1:1 translation to/from machine code, and machine code isn't meant to make programming easy or scalable.

This is not the first time the play store removes an app for absolutely no reason and then refuses to explain why it did so, and it won't be the last. Usually they don't just reinstate the app for no reason.

I don't think it was a mistake, but even if it was, they do not have proper communications to resolve such mistakes.

I hate both of them, but JRPGs are worse. I am sure this is exactly the kind of answer you were looking for.

Not recommended while using power tools.

Then perhaps you should post it to the !parallelview@sh.itjust.works community instead.

The other two have no discernable 3D effect for me, when comparing elements inside the photo (e.g. one rock should appear closer to me than another rock). Maybe if they were blown up to a bigger size, some 3D effect might start to appear, but that's not possible to see with the parallel method. Maybe with some viewing device that these were specifically made for.

The editing I suggested is dead easy: just switch the position of the left image and the right image. You can learn to do it in any photo editing software - or in Paint for that matter - in a matter of minutes.

I firmly believe that every language has an equal proportion of spaghetti code to clean code. The only factor that might screw with this is how much a language is used in industry, which I'd expect raises the ratio. However, there's plenty of hobbyists writing spaghetti code too so I don't think even that factor has much effect.
