This is just a simple poll to let everyone know why people are using GUI.
I am creating this poll because i see many people who think that all GUI'ers only use GUI because they are to lazy to learn jass (in my case thats true but however ^^). So lets do the polling

there are many great turtorials out there, just check "What is JASS (and how to learn it)?" one of the stickys in this forum

btw thist poll does not refer to some simple initialization or things like that. i know for some things is just no reason to be coded in jass

even if people vote for something else, i really think most are just to lazy to learn jass or even are to lazy to inform themselfes about the advantages of jass.

you mean it? if you know how to use jass its far easier than using GUI? jass looks just so complex and hard to understand

Arithmetic in JASS is so simple compared to GUI.

because all such codes reminds me c++ where i was spending like 3 days just to create simple calculator with buttons (tho it worked perfectly) so no thx for JASS

To everyone who voted "Because its easier to code in GUI" or "Because I think that my coding in GUI is more efficient" I suggest actually learning Jass.

GUI (meaning "Graphical User Interface) is coding via those drop down and select actions/conditions/events u most likely know if you have ever started WE.

Jass is the Programing Language Warcraft uses (Those GUI things are also Jass) if people refer to jass here they mean using hand-typed codes using the jass languages

omg thats a crappy explaination but my english sucks ^^

To everyone who voted "Because its easier to code in GUI" or "Because I think that my coding in GUI is more efficient" I suggest actually learning Jass.

For "easier to code", I would say it totally depends on how the person interprets the word "easier".

To me, GUI is easier to code as it follows a rigid coding system and can follow through with my line of thought.

For Jass, it would be "easier" as you have access to functions, locals, structs and various systems out there.


As for "efficient", anyone who thinks GUI is more efficient really need to know what they are thinking.... at least know what they are comparing.

And that "interpretation" is entirely dependent on how well that person knows Jass. If you don't think so, I suggest continuing to learn it.

I use GUI because I don't need JASS at the moment. JASS is maybe more effective than GUI but GUI is faster than JASS. That is why I don't use JASS at the moment.

  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
