Fix Android accelerometer calculation bug#21killerdevildog wants to merge 1 commit intoschellingb:mainfrom
Conversation
- Fixed faulty accelerometer angle calculation implementation - Corrected variable name mismatches (accPosX -> x, etc.) - Replaced undefined M_1_PI constant with proper value - Implemented proper roll/pitch calculation using standard formulas - Added math.h include for required math functions - Maintains backward compatibility by preserving raw value transmission - Added comprehensive comments explaining the corrected calculations The original commented code had multiple compilation and mathematical errors. This fix addresses the TODO comment 'this is faulty!' with a proper implementation of accelerometer-to-orientation angle conversion. Resolves accelerometer calculation issues in Android platform code.

The calculation seems reasonable. Do you have any plans to actually use the results? As of now in the PR'd code it calculates the numbers but then doesn't do anything with them. So I can't merge this as is because it doesn't do anything. |

Thanks for the detailed feedback! To clarify your concerns:

May I ask a question then. What made you want to contribute this? Why try to improve an Android specific part of a library if you haven't used it on Android? Have you used ZillaLib at all? |
|
If you provide your email. I'll send you an email regarding this question in private. |

Don't waste your time, this user is just posting a whole bunch of AI slop on GitHub to up the PR counter in his resume. |

@tobybear AI has been a great tool for me in learning Git and GitHub, and I believe it can be a positive part of the open-source process. I’m currently looking for work and adding PRs to my resume, so it’s important to me that the environment is welcoming for all contributors, including those with disabilities. Harassment or targeted behavior is against GitHub’s Terms of Service. If the goal is to limit contributions, a private repository might be a better option. Otherwise, I hope we can maintain a respectful and inclusive space for everyone who wants to help. |

That's also a bit mean to say. Contributions are certainly welcome, but they need to do something, be useful and be tested. It needs to fit into the code base, style and everything. If there are performance implications, thought needs to be put into that. If a change affects an API, special care needs to be taken to not break things, to not introduce a new approach when there already is a way to do things like it, to not make an interface that no one wants to use. Contributions should not overcomplicate things, simplicity pretty much always wins. Before writing code, while writing code, before preparing to commit code, always think if it's the right amount of complexity. If it's not, rethink it, rework it, it will be better in every aspect. Simpler, more readable, better maintainable, use less dependencies, run faster, be more impressive! Code is written by humans for humans. And heck this is a hobby project, so it has to be fun, too! Did you have fun? I have to be honest with you, you are being a nuisance with what you are doing. You waste people's time with useless automatically generated nonsense. Have a look at what you are trying to contribute here. It's an inactive block of code. It does nothing. You haven't tested it and I assume you haven't even compiled the code you are trying to contribute under your name. You said you have reviewed the code before submitting it. I have a very hard time believing that. Wouldn't you have noticed that it does nothing? I'd never hire someone with a GitHub profile like yours. Seeing "Created 100+ other repositories" there alone is a big big red flag. Don't you think your profile looks like either a scam or a bot? If you want to become a respected programmer that people will want to hire, write code. Write your own code. Show proof that you understand code. Submitting an ungodly amount of meaningless PRs every day won't impress anyone. Having even just one repository of something you've created is a thousand times better than what you are doing. And on top of that it won't waste people's time. |
