@DerKommissar Wait until you read about matrix lie groups.

Why is delete invoked on a pointer to an object that is still in use? There's your bug. You need to properly manage the lifetime of objects. One simple way to fix that is the mentioned smart pointers, another is to use a garbage collector. Other methods specific to your application design may exist, too. I can't comment on that design since you don't provide any substantial info on it, maybe presenting it on codereview.stackexchange.com would be beneficial. — Ulrich Eckhardt 53 secs ago

should I use enterText.Length instead of timesPressed?. If you use length as well as times pressed then you can get a measure of how many keystrokes were needed to generate the result , ie how many corrections were needed which is a pointer towards accuracy. If you want to make a statistic of that you can, but most of the questions you're asking are leaning towards us designing your program for you; we are not the authority on how it should be designed; you are. Stackoverflow is not designed to answer questions like this. Also, your code works and hence belongs on CodeReview StackExchange — flackoverstow 32 secs ago

@Reinderien Fortunately I don't have to deal with those, I was able to get out of dealing with the quaternions too, though I think that will only last for a small bit yet

And this 8 year old zombie hopefully is now at peace.
Thank you Santa!
I have 13 spam calls today from the same telemarketer, and they keep switching phone numbers too.
@DerKommissar So sorry to hear that. I only have a cell phone these days and I block unknown callers.
Yes, I love the block unknown callers feature
15:34
Problem is it's a business line so I can't just have it reject all unknown calls
@DerKommissar I thought that might be the case.
Anyone here ever have to modify a linux-based OS for self-startup branded platforms? We're trying to determine how easy it is to put our logo in the bootloader, and have the system only show a GUI after starting the application we want
It's only been 35 years since I worked in that area and that was on Unix. Sorry.
I probably need to go dig through the GRUB docs, and see if I can find what I need there

Q: Calculating the moment of inertia of a 2D convex polygon for physics

kasjolamanI have made a quick and basic working demo on calculating the moment of inertia of a 2D convex polygon. This was for the purpose of learning physics engines, more specifically rigid body dynamics (2D) for fun. However, inertia can be complicated subject (especially in 3D) and that there seems to ...

@pacmaninbw I'm mainly on on Windows again, but the Linux installs I do have running at the moment are Arch.
@Mast I've been using Ubuntu 22.04 for about a year. Not real fond of 24.04 I installed it in a VM on Windows and it crashed.
I was dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 22.04 on an 8 year old Lenovo P50, but somehow the Windows partition got messed up.
I'd like to dual boot my Dell but I need to keep Windows on that machine.

@CaptainObvious @toolic Just curious, since it looks okay, is there a reason you didn't up vote it?
@Mast Have you tried the new Arch installer?
@Peilonrayz My last install was a year ago and I don't recall which installer it had.
Probably Rufus. I usually do Linux installs with Rufus.
Dump ISO to stick, install, done.

@pacmaninbw: I'll get a round tuit. I still think it's funny when people here ask me, of all people, to vote more :) Speaking of votes, how about some Santa vote on my latest zombie kill?
@Mast Ah, I can't find anything nice in the Arch Wiki about archinstall. :/ You probably didn't use the new installer. Arch is really easy to install now, no more having the Installation Guide on a second device XD
@Peilonrayz Doesn't look familiar, but I'll keep that in mind next time I reinstall a system. Got an old PC from someone last week that I got to re-install when I'm feeling better, good excuse to try the new installer.
Thanks, Santa!

@pacmaninbw Looks like the comment from last week didn't get converted to an answer yet, I really don't want to have to do it...
@toolic Hopefully we can find a way to get more people to read it, but as this meta post explains:
> - We want people to vote too. We want new users to vote for us too! It is good for everyone.
> - First Posters cannot vote until they get 15 rep.

@DerKommissar I don't see a comment on that post.
@SᴀᴍOnᴇᴌᴀ toolic has more votes ever than you. What's your point?
Tell people to vote, sure. You too @pacmaninbw. But perhaps start aiming for people who aren't actually voting, instead of bothering people who are doing way above average already.
@toolic almost has twice the votes @Reinderien has and nobody is bothering them.
What's next, people telling me to vote more often?
I'm 4th overall ever. I know a thing or two about votes. Start bothering people who aren't voting instead of those who have 7k votes on their name.
If we're talking about votes cast vs rep gained, they're doing way better than the both of you.
You can figure out which graph belongs tho who easily enough.
They're doing amazing.

@Mast Yes they are. I just don't want to see "Looks OK" in the First Questions review history.

Insofar as you're starting with working, rather than broken, code -- this question is probably better suited to Code Review rather than Stack Overflow. You got an answer this time, but in general "best practice" questions tend to be closed. — Charles Duffy 36 secs ago
@Mast I was attempting to point out why new users can use upvotes (when appropriate)
@SᴀᴍOnᴇᴌᴀ They're not new.
@Mast The OP of the post which was reviewed is new
