Ad block is the number one thing you can do on the Internet to reduce your risk to exploits, phishing, etc. The US government recommends the use of ad block specifically for this reason. Usage of ad block is basic internet security hygiene.

An environmental posadist. Not a stance I’ve normally seen. Imo, if nothing came out of deep water horizon, there’s no oil accident big enough to matter.

Transocean received an early partial insurance settlement for total loss of the Deepwater Horizon of US$401 million about 5 May 2010.[60] Financial analysts noted that the insurance recovery was likely to be more than the value of the rig (although not necessarily its replacement value) and any liabilities – the latter estimated at as much as US$200 million.

A problem that only affects newbies huh?

Let’s say that you are writing code intended to be deployed headless in the field, and it should not be allowed to exit in an uncontrolled fashion because there are communications that need to happen with hardware to safely shut them down. You’re making a autonomous robot or something.

Using python for this task isn’t too out of left field, because one of the major languages of ROS is python, and it’s the most common one.

Which of the following python standard library functions can throw, and what do they throw?

bytes, hasattr, len, super, zip

No one tell OP that the ml in lemmy.ml is for Marxist Leninists.

Most recently, other than Trump, George HW Bush lost the election while incumbent. Prior to that it was Jimmy Carter.

The next most recent person to win the election but lose the popular vote was George W Bush, prior to that is was Harrison back in 1888.

(please attend to primaries next time…)

So… should I have voted for Marianne Williamson or Dean Phillips, keeping in mind Dean Phillips formally withdrew from the race before my state’s primary, and Marianne Williamson couldn’t have won if she had sweeped every state after and including mine?

I think the problem is mostly that the US system of elections is turbo mega fucked.

I am sorryI am sorryI am sorryI…

Wow, your name is my name too.

Trigraphs are handled by the preprocessor, so if you’re not handling that, then that’s fine. Digraphs are handled by the tokenizer, however.

Are digraphs and trigraphs deprecated?

Did you reference the standard?

1001st, technically

You give me hope.

I wasn’t aware. I can give it a shot, but I fear the reception isn’t going to be “gang-busters” :)

I would be thrilled to teach you. Back when I was starting I had the exact same problem, and it pretty much lasted as long as I didn’t have someone available to teach me. Alternatively, you can try learning from AI. Back then AIs were not very strong, and absolutely did not play good moves, thankfully they’re extremely strong now. However, they might teach you… not bad habits, but very much not rank appropriate ones.

I’m not going to weigh in on the specifics of Flatpak vs AppImage, because I don’t know enough about the particulars.

However, I think the “user choice” argument is often deployed in situations where it probably shouldn’t be.

For instance, in this case, it’s not the user’s choice at all, but a developer’s choice, as a normal user would not be packaging their own software. They would be merely downloading one of a number of options of precompiled packages. And this is the thrust of the argument. If we take the GitHub rant at face value, some developers seem to be distributing software using AppImage, to the exclusion of other options. And then listing ways in which this is problematic.

I, for one, would be rather annoyed if my only option were either AppImage or Flatpak, as I typically prefer use software packaged for my package manager. That is user choice, give me the option to package it myself; hopefully it’s already been done for me.

There are some good things to be said about trust and verification, and I’m generally receptive to those arguments way more than “user choice.”

My main hobby is go, aka baduk. But that’s like me and a dozen other people in the West.

Would there be space for an abstract board game community? Like chess, go, Othello, hex, and so on?
