Anecdotally, I see a lot more “normal” human to human engagement than the addressed-to-millions engagement bait I see on Threads.
Shellcheck is great, but dealing with source/imports is suuuch a pain. Not their fault sh is a nightmare.
Genuinely surprised anybody would acquire Splunk in 2023. Whenever you hear about Splunk from security engineers, they're actively trying to get off it (edit: yes, primarily because of cost). Better, next-gen SIEMs are…
I do wonder if something like the MagSafe (laptop) adaptor would strike a happy medium. Also - I don't know if Apple's 15w Qi is strong enough for a tablet.
Having worked at a company with a million-lines-plus of Python monolith, gradual typing annotations made all the difference. Why do you need it enforced at runtime? It's static types!
Drew Houston needs to step down. The company has been aimless for a decade. The 'collaborative workspace' was an obviously bad idea that they sunk years of company-wide resources on (ask me how I know!)
Ah, yes, it's <insert minority here>'s fault that America doesn't build mechas. Go crawl back in to your cave.
Agreed - the common rental ones really have no power. I think Lime and its ilk are usually in the 300w range. I bought my own scooter on a whim; it can toggle between 500w and 1000w of power, and I rarely need the 1000w…
(I was at Dropbox from 2015-2020) The legacy framework was Pylons, which eventually evolved into Pyramid. The tldr is there were hundreds of unowned endpoints that, yes, were allowed to fester. They eventually got…
plus one, also having twitter issues besides this tweet
Uber is doing fine without that garbage human.
Some projects need performant regexes, and some honestly just don't. I agree that keeping the base regex library linear is admirable, but it's be nice if they offered a well-marked thing like regex.slow_and_perl_like in…
(Note: my knowledge here is out of date as of 2015.) Sable is relatively ancient and badly in need of deprecation. (If I remember correctly, as of 2011 it was sort of in a "please consider alternate storage solutions"…
Skype for Android is unbelievably bad. I uninstalled it after the following: - a spam bot texts me asking to connect - which, whatever. - my locked phone wakes up from sleep and /launches into Skype/ to show me this…
So, when is somebody going to do an assistant abstraction layer so you can plug your service into all N of these things?
I'd just like to give a shout-out to Jetbrains for being really responsive on their bug tracker! I've reported a couple bugs about PEP 484 type comments and they've acknowledged or fixed them usually within a week.
'bo*' is pretty common for cows in european languages - they are the genus 'bos' after all (see: english 'bovine'). As for the Vietnamese roots, I thought it might have been a French loanword but it looks like it came…
Most likely, they A/B tested it and liked what they saw. Interesting development considering Nordstrom's failure with the same experiment.
While I agree that the article is all business-speak ("we're just like Apple!" said every auto exec ever), the Mazda/Ford partnership is basically done as of the market crash. Ford at one point owned 33% of it in the…
A unique ode to the biggest changes between 2->3
The article says that the modern peanut has 20 chromosomes, whereas its ancestors each had 10. At least in animal hybridization, the hybrid chromosome amount lies between that of the two parents. So what's up with that?…
My favorite is that Jeb Bush's website used a capitalized I instead of a pipe symbol, assuming it'd be sans-serifs. http://imgur.com/hc3LVwI
We've been using the Python 2 support at work for the past ~month and it's a gamechanger for me personally. I like that it's easy to incrementally add types, and silo it to one piece of the codebase at a time. Thanks…
They want to add hooks for it, noting Opera already has a sidebar API. https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions/Future I've seen similar sentiments echoed by Mozilla devs in a reddit AMA a few weeks ago.
Can somebody wrap this in a Slackbot and call it SmarterManchild?
