{ My brother who's into movies shared with me a nice example of how capitalism ruined the art of movie dubbing (which my country has a big tradition in) -- it's just one example which however reflects many other areas that got ruined and shows why we just see this huge decline of all art and craft. Back in the day (here during a non-capitalist regime) movie dubbing was done like a play, dubbing was performed scene by scene, all actors were present, they all watched the scene together, then rehersed it several times and then dubbed it together (on a single microphone); if the result wasn't satisfactory, they tried another take until they were happy. The voice actors got time, creative freedom and were interacting together -- movie dubbing from these times are excellent works of art that sometimes even elevate the original works higher. Nowadays dubbing is done by each actor separately (no interaction between actors), each one scheduled at different time, they work without rehearsal, on first take, the translation is done on tight schedule by the cheapest translator the company finds (usually some student who's doing it as a side job at nights, soon this will probably just be done by AI), the actors are tired as hell as they have to voice many movies in a single day, they are pushed to work quickly and produce as much material as possible and to keep it safe so as to not have to risk additional takes (time loss = money loss), i.e. artistic freedom completely disappears. As different performances are recorded separately, the equipment is also more expensive (there has to be minimum noise as many records will be added together, which will amplify noise, and also someone has to do the mixing etc.). So not only are these dubbing complete and absolute soulless sterile shit without any true emotion and with laughable translation errors, they are also more expensive to make. Capitalism killed the art, humiliated it and in addition made us pay more for it. ~drummyfish } { My brother who's into movies shared with me a nice example of how capitalism ruined the art of movie dubbing (which my country has a big tradition in) -- it's just one example which however reflects many other areas that got ruined and shows why we just see this huge decline of all art and craft.

WORK IN PROGRESS Debugging is a term predominantly related to [computer](computer.md) technology (but sometimes also extended beyond it) where it stands for the practice of actively searching for [bugs](bug.md) (errors, design flaws, defects, ...) and fixing them; most typically it happens in software [programming](programming.md), but we may also talk about debugging [hardware](hardware.md) etc. Debugging is notoriously tedious and stressful, it can even take majority of the programmer's time and some bugs are extremely hard to track down, however systematic approaches can be applied to basically always succeed in fixing any bug. Debugging is sometimes humorously defined as "replacing old bugs with new ones".

**Spare yourself debugging by testing as you go** -- while programming it's best to at least quickly test the program is working after each small step change you make. Actually you should be writing **[automatic tests](automatic_test.md)** along with your main program that quickly tests that all you've programmed so far still works (see also [regression](regression.md)). This way you discover a bug early and you know it's in the part you just changed so you find it and fix it quickly. If you don't do this and just write the whole program before even running it, your program will just crash and you won't have a clue why -- at this point you most likely have SEVERAL bugs working together and so even finding one or two of them will still leave your program crashing -- this situation is so shitty that the time you saved earlier won't nearly be worth it. **Spare yourself debugging by testing as you go** -- while programming it's best to at least quickly test the program is working after each small step change you make.

Sometimes a bug can be super nasty and make the program crash always in random places, even depending e.g. on where you put the print statement, even if the print statement shouldn't really have an effect on the rest of the program. When you spot something like this, you probably have some super nasty bug related to undefined behavior or optimization, try to mess with optimization flags, use static analyzers, reduce your program to a minimum program that still bugs etc. This may take some time.

### Logging
[Logging](logging.md) is similar to the debug prints but it's something you just do automatically as you program (see also asserts below), logging system is a permanent part of the program, i.e. something that will stays as the program's feature rather than a temporary way of finding and fixing a specific bug. Logging means your program records what it's doing by printing it to the command line or into some text file -- this creates a log that will be useful for many things, including debugging. The advantage here is that if a user encounters a bug, he can just send the programmer his log file which the programmer can read and get some idea about what happened. For this logs should adhere to some rules and be a bit more sophisticated than mere quick printouts: firstly log outputs should be nice and more verbose (i.e. output e.g. `step 225: variable x = 342` instead of `asdf 225 342`) so as to be understandable to anyone, they should be nicely formatted because a log will likely be long so it should be friendly to be filtered with [regexes](regex.md) etc., it should also be possible to turn logs off. With bigger project there are also options to set different log levels (e.g. the highest level will print almost everything the program is doing, lower level will print only important steps and so on), set where to store the log (i.e. print to console, store to some specified file, ...) and so on.

When dealing with a super nasty bug in a complex program that's dodging solutions by the simpler methods, it is useful to just copy your program elsewhere and there strip down everything off of it while still keeping the bug in place. I.e. you just keep deleting functions and all the program does while making sure the bug you're after is still happening. This will firstly eliminate places where you have to look for the bug but mainly will usually lead you to reducing the program to just a few lines of code that behave extremely weirdly, like a function whose behavior depends on where you put a print statement of if you use a wider data type etc. Then you usually find the problematic line or whatever it is that's causing the bug and once you know the line, you can look at it really carefully, google the behavior of each operator etc. to really find the bug.

### Asserts
Assertions are checks for conditions that should always hold, for example if you're programming some game, it should always hold that the player is within the level boundaries at all times, so you can just regularly keep checking this condition in your program -- if this assert fails, there is probably some bug (maybe you calculated the position wrong, maybe some pointer overwrote your value, ...), and the location of this condition can also help you locate the bug (you will know approximately when and where in the code it happened). Similarly you can just watch all important variables and their relationships. In bigger projects adding asserts on the go is sometimes considered a "[good habit](good_habit.md)" or is even a required practice, i.e. it is not something you start doing only when you discover a bug -- the purpose of asserts is more to discover bugs early and prevent disasters (running a code that's internally working bad) rather than help fix them (but they'll help with that too). Asserts can be implemented with special debuggers or [libraries](library.md), however a more [KISS](kiss.md) way is to simply [do it yourself](diy.md), it's a simple condition check -- you should just make it so that you can disable all assert check easily because while you will use them in debugging, for the [release](release.md) build you'll want more performance, so you'll want to turn unnecessary condition checks off. For example in [C](c.md) you can make an assert macro like:
```
#ifdef DEBUG
#define ass(cond,text) if (!(cond)) printf("ASSERT FAILED: %s!\n",text);
#else
#define ass(c,t) ;
#endif
...
// assert correct player position:
ass(abs(playerPos.x) <= WORLD_BOUND && abs(playerPos.y) <= WORLD_BOUND,"player position")
...
```
Here if you don't define the `DEBUG` macro, the assert macro will just be an empty command that does nothing.

### Other Tips
Additionally these may help deal with bugs as well:
- With weird bugs try to rebuild everything from scratch -- delete all object files, intermediate and temporary files and compile the whole project from scratch, turn it on an off again, it may be that there's some peculiar bug and/or weirdness in the build system or something.
- If you had a working build, added something and it's bugging and you're stuck debugging it, it may be faster to just scratch your changes, revert to the working code and implement the thing again, more carefully. First time you may have just made some stupid oversight that's hard to find, you won't make it again the second time.
- When stuck also maybe try the program on different computer, use different compiler, interpreter etc. -- this can at least give you more information, i.e. like that the bug is specific to your operating system or that it doesn't happen if there is more RAM etc.

This means that many (probably most) free culture promoters actually rely and even support the concept of e.g. copyright, they just want to make it much less strict. Some of these conditions may e.g. further require a source code of the work to be made available (e.g. sheet music, to allow studying and modification).

This means that many (probably most) free culture promoters actually rely and even support the concept of e.g. copyright, they just want to make it much less strict.
IMPORTANT NOTE: **[fair use](fair_use.md) (or exclusive author permission) is unacceptable in free culture!** It is an extremely common mistake, happening even among people long contributing to free culture, to think that within free culture you can use a piece of proprietary art under so called *fair use* while keeping the whole work adhering to free culture -- you cannot do this (even though e.g. [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) does this for which it actually seizes to be a completely free work). Fair use is a legal concept that allows people to use any kind of art -- even proprietary -- in some "fair" ways even without the permission of the copyright holder, i.e. for example you can likely use someone's copyrighted photograph on your website as long as you have a good justification for it (e.g. documenting a historical event with this being the only existing photo of it), if you only include a low resolution version and if you're not making money off of it -- this could be judged fair use by the court, i.e. you wouldn't be violating copyright. However a work that is to be free licensed must allow ANY use, not just fair use, i.e. it mustn't contain any part under fair use, or even under EXCLUSIVE author's permission for it to be used within that project, because such part would only limit the work to be used in the "fair use" way ONLY. While in some contexts, e.g. in hobbyist projects, such work will likely be legal, i.e. fair use, in other context, like commercial ones (which free culture MUST enable), this fair use part will suddenly seize to be fair use and the use will be illegal. Similarly if you e.g. want to use someone's music in your free culture movie, it is NOT enough to get the author's permission to use the music in your movie, the author has to give permission to EVERYONE to use it in ANY WAY, because if your movie is to be under a free license, anyone will be able to take any part out of your movie and use it in any other way. { I actually managed to get some characters out of the [SuperTuxKart](supertuxkart.md) game for this reason, there were some mascots that were used under exclusive permission, which was unacceptable and Debian maintainers sorted this out. So just for the confirmation of this fact: Debian also confirmed this. ~drummyfish }
It was in 2001 when **[Lawrence Lessig](lessig.md)**, an American lawyer who can be seen as the movement's founder, created the **[Creative Commons](creative_commons.md)**, a non-profit organization which stands among the foundations of the movement and is very much connected to it. By this time he was already educating people about the twisted intellectual property laws and had a few followers. Creative Commons would create and publish a set of [licenses](license.md) that anyone could use to release their works under much less restrictive conditions than those that lawfully arise by default. For example if someone creates a song and releases it under the [CC-BY](cc_by.md) license, he allows anyone to freely use, modify and share the song as long as proper attribution is given to him. It has to be noted that **NOT all Creative Commons licenses are free culture** (those with NC and ND conditions break the above given rules)! It is also possible to use other, non Creative Commons licenses in free culture, as long as the above given criteria are respected.

In 2004 Lessig published his **book** called Free Culture that summarized the topic as well as proposed solutions -- the book itself is shared under a Creative Commons license and can be downloaded for free (however the license is among the non-free CC licenses so the book itself is not part of free culture [lmao](lmao.md), big fail by Lessig).

Liberalism is a political ideology whose definition is not greatly clear (we may find branches that differ a lot) but which usually aims for "liberty", focus on individuals who ought to be protected by the state and have equal opportunities, which leads to obsession with all kinds of "[rights](rights_culture.md)" and "social justice" (i.e. social revenge of minorities); as one of worst imaginable ideologies it is no surprise it's the prevailing [US](usa.md) ideology and ideology of [SJW](sjw.md)s -- liberalism is taking over the whole western world and it's destroying everything.

Regular expressions are widely used in [Unix](unix.md) tools, [programming languages](programming_language.md), editors etc. Especially notable are [grep](grep.md) (searches for patterns in files), [sed](sed.md) (text processor, often used for search and replacement of patterns), [awk](awk.md), [Perl](perl.md), [Vim](vim.md) etc. Regular expressions are widely used in [Unix](unix.md) tools, [programming languages](programming_language.md), editors etc. Especially notable are [grep](grep.md) (searches for patterns in files), [sed](sed.md) (text processor, often used for search and replacement of patterns), [awk](awk.md), [Perl](perl.md), [Vim](vim.md) etc.
From the point of view of [theoretical computer science](theoretical_compsci.md) and [formal languages](formal_language.md) **regular expressions are computationally weak**, they are equivalent to the weakest models of computations such as regular [grammars](grammar.md) or **[finite state machines](finite_state_machine.md)** -- in fact regular expressions are often implemented as finite state machines. This means that **regular expressions can NOT describe any possible pattern** (for example they can't capture a math expression with brackets in which start brackets have to match end brackets), only relatively simple ones; however it turns out that very many commonly encountered patterns are simple enough to be described this way, so we have a [good enough](good_enough.md) tool.

**Are there yet simpler pattern describers than regular expressions?** Yes, of course, the simplest example is just a string directly describing the pattern, e.g. "abc" matching exactly just the string "abc" -- this is called a *fixed string*. Notable subclass of regular expressions are so called *star-free* languages/expressions which are regular expressions without the star (repetition) operator. Star-free expressions can be used as a [simpler](kiss.md) variant to regular expressions, they may still describe many patterns and are easier to implement. **Are there yet simpler pattern describers than regular expressions?** Yes, of course, the simplest example is just a string directly describing the pattern, e.g. "abc" matching exactly just the string "abc" -- this is called a *fixed string*.
