Not quite this, but I did have a validation team that didn’t know when to quit.
The project was a Windows service, and they would be constantly opening bugs saying “program crashes when we deleted xxxxx.dll”
Like… Yeah. If you delete necessary libraries from the installation directory, the program won’t run correctly.
What exactly are they arguing over? I probably shouldn’t ask, but I’ve been fortunate enough to not encounter any of this controversy on my social media
Imagine programming a computer without understanding the machine code that tells the CPU what to do
Fire often is, which is a possible side effect of gunpowder
I thought I would play a straight character in Baldur’s Gate 3, but Gale made it hard.
Gates can be moving, but not at faster than light. SG1 had the bit where they tossed an active gate into a sun to blow it up, and Atlantis had straight up orbital space gates with stabilizer rockets on them
There was some explanation about how the gates had to be calibrated to a general part of space in order to participate in the gate network which is why they couldn’t use it in hyperspace. That, and probably some physics mumbo jumbo about why wormholes can’t connect from within subspace or whatever
Classic Who went through enough changes that there might be something you enjoy in there. It was arguably at its best during the Tom Baker years. (Season 12). If you can’t get into that, then it may just not be your jam. A lot of the charm to the old series came from the low budgets and aggressively short production times. But with the 4th Doctor they had gotten a little more confidence from BBC and I think their budgets started getting bigger for a few years.
The original Doctor Who in the 60s was more like original series Star Trek, in that it sometimes felt more like a stage production than a television show, and that kind of writing is understandably dated.
I’m fond of Go, which comes with its own auto formatter. It eliminates all arguments over style and format.
For what it’s worth, this looks like the standard cat crouch position that my cats do all the time. It’s one step away from the regular cat loaf.
This cat’s legs are very likely normal length, they’re just hidden in that white fur.
ActivityPub has nothing to do with privacy. It’s explicitly about publicly sharing everything you share
I have a physics joke, but it only works in a vacuum
I don’t understand why someone changed this comic to the same joke but worse.
Here is the original, from They Can talk
Right, and everyone agreed that wasn’t the greatest practice. Two years ago.
This thread from two days ago was bringing attention to an issue that was fixed two years ago, and calling it out as if it was a different problem than it was.
It’s good to have discussions about security best practices, but this thread is pointless. This problem is simply not there anymore.
This was hashed out pretty thoroughly in that thread.
The initial concern over the password being stored in plaintext was shown to be a mistaken assumption, and it was made clear that this kind of email doesn’t happen anymore, it’s an outdated problem.
No need to keep the discussion going past that, is there? Much less spread it around?
I’ve never felt dependent on public code repos for my own career before,
I hope you don’t actually believe this.
I think you misunderstood me. We all use open source software or develop using open source libraries, and in the context of the question, I don’t care where they host their code, as long as I can find it. But that isn’t what I was talking about. I have never felt like my career depended on me publicly hosting my own code. I have found jobs and connected with people through other means, and they haven’t even asked to see my github profile in any interviews I’ve been in.
which is why you should always open source your code unless there’s a specific reason not to. If you’ve ever made something that works, then your cube would be useful.
Sure, I have a Python script running on a Raspberry Pi controlling my garage door opener. You want it, I’ll show it to you. I believe in open source software, but I’m not going out of my way to publicly host (and document, yuck!) every little thing I’ve made for myself, especially when they have often been tailor made for my home environment, or hacked together in 15 minutes and riddled with secrets.
But my main reason is simply privacy. I don’t want to broadcast to the Internet what project I am working on right now, or reveal the architecture of my home network or smart home setup. There’s a lot you reveal about yourself when you show the world what you are doing, and I would prefer not to do that.
I don’t understand the question or the responses.
It’s a host for code repos. I would “switch” from GitHub if the repos I need to interact with were hosted somewhere else.
How do y’all use GitHub? Is everyone running their own open source project? None of my personal projects have ever been open source before. Very few of them were even useful for anyone but myself
I’ve been a developer for 20 years, I’ve never felt dependent on public code repos for my own career before, and I would be uncomfortable if it happened. No employer has even asked for my public GitHub profile or to see my commit activity. Not even when the company hosted their code on GitHub
Sometimes it’s intentional. I have seen both of these cases as well:
Gotta get more impressions, right?
A couple of main points:
Still, I feel your pain. When trying to get into these technologies, most people who have done the work are engineers, and we stink at writing documentation. I’m sure you’re familiar with it, we automate the solutions for issues we encounter, and then those tools or automatic configurations fail to make it to the end user.
And I’m probably biased, but don’t use a video guide for this sort of thing. It’s just the wrong medium for a technical tutorial.
