There's not really any skill involved in the use of specific compilers, they all work about the same once you understand how to use them. For example, I typically support Windows and Linux with gcc, intel, and cl.exe (the Visual Studio compiler) all in the same makefile. Switching between compilers is a matter of syntax, not semantics.

As for the relevance of GNU, don't let others fool you. GNU has a distinct advantage over many other popular compilers: it's free. Compiler optimization nowadays tends to be based on hardware, which changes rapidly... thus requiring regular updates of compilers. That's a lot easier to do when there's no associated cost. Consider this: I work for a huge company with scads of money. We JUST updated to VS 2010... we've been riding on 6.0 forever. Pretty difficult to optimize code for today's CPUs when the compiler you're using thinks P4s are the top of the food chain. Intel, I'm still using 8.0. It also thinks P4s are hot shit, but updating to 13.0 (or whatever their latest tier is) would cost several thousands. Every year.

...or we could update gcc for free.


"As for the relevance of GNU, don't let others fool you. GNU has a distinct advantage over many other popular compilers: it's free."

There's a reason it's still packaged with Linux's.. kernal? I always forget if the GNU is the kernal or what rests on top.  Wink

Completely agree with you, even though I don't have the knowledge to fully use them yet. That's some good information. I'm still kind of the teenager in the pond for this stuff, lots to learn. It's fun and I enjoy it so that's a leg up over many people in their professions.

EDIT: Linux is the kernal and GNU is the OS, combined to still be called Linux. I just learned this shit in class last month, apparently I dumped it to make room for more important things like C Programming class and other usefull Linux Admin/Net Sec stuffs.

Here's a nice client side stamina hack: source2  and source1

I haven't tried it but I am pretty sure it works.






Supposedly there is a LOT more client-side stuff, allegedly some people are using rogue skills on a CW and stuff like that Cheesy

The frequency of these exploits kinda makes them lose that christmassy feel they had in DDO Sad

It's all Visual Stuff nowadays... ( C#, C++, J++, Java, ... pick the one you like )

Give them a good ol' cc ( even a gcc ) in a shell on a Unix system and they are lost.

I won't even talk of when I start talking assembler... Usually I'm met with glazed eyes and a flat EEG.


There's certainly a lot of that, but some of our local schools are still turning out kids with decent experience with Linux.  We just made an offer to a guy whose most recent project included developing an assembly-level device driver for an autonomous drone.  As always, you have to sift the wheat from the chaff.

It already is.  They had a 12+ hour downtime that included rolling back the servers.  Can you imagine the rage if DDO rolled back their servers?  Although now that I mention it, I'm not sure Turbine even has that ability.

Well, if you take full context into consideration, DDO did a full wipe between beta and launch. NW did a 12 hour rollback in beta.

At one point, maybe twice, DDO was rolled back.  Chill shard for one

Most of the client side hacks were patched out today. I believe that stealth remains hackable but sprint isnt anymore.
  

Also, penis.

I wasn't around for that, so obviously it didn't happen or isn't important!

Wasn't here for chill shard, what was that about?

But DDO has been rolled back countless times (just not intentionally).

You could dupe Chill Shards easily and then sell them to vendors and make lots of plat.
