Most of the damage of the Anthropocene may already have been done.

Unless global warming gets sufficiently bad, in which case that will be the worst damage.

Personally I often upvote based on subjects that I'd like to see more discussion about.

(In this particular case I did not vote on the OP.)

A significant portion of it is written in Rust. https://github.com/imazen/imageflow

Is it possible to use React with a custom canvas-rendered UI? Is it in any way benefitial to do so compared to not using React for the custom canvas-rendered UI?

I'd love to see the demoscene do something cool with it :)

Will BPF replace ftrace? From what I understood he was able to do everything ftrace could by using BPF and BPF was more efficient.

every secret-sharing system [...] and the major ones are all FOSS

Can you recommend a specific one? I'd like to integrate a secret-sharing system into my personal set of computers and applications.

In case you are wary of giving recommendations, perhaps you could just list the top three instead. But ideally I'd like to have a specific recommendation. Also, if said secret-sharing system is written in rust an is available as a library I'd be extra super happy.

Having just said that, I decided to do a search on crates.io. https://crates.io/search?q=secret. It seems that at least a couple of those are about the thing that we are talking about here.

Speaking of BSD. While the OpenBSD guys are not on the Humble charity list, The FreeBSD Foundation is, and both Peter N.M. Hansteen and Michael W. Lucas (the authors of the two of the respective books you mentioned) seem to be into FreeBSD also.

So to anyone else buying the bundle primarily for the books on OpenBSD, and who happen to support FreeBSD also:

1. Log in or create an account.

2. Go to https://www.humblebundle.com/store/select-charity/charity/21... and select it as your chosen charity to support.

3. When you go to pay for the books adjust the sliders so that you give some percentage (I chose 100%) to charity and under charity adjust the slider for The FreeBSD Foundation (once again I chose 100%).

Deal? Deal!

Well, regardless of what you and I agree that it should be, the rule is Life + 70 years in the US.

It's telling me the same thing in Firefox.

Is the language refrence at http://coffeescript.org/#language completely up to date with CoffeeScript 2 or only partially?

Edit:

http://coffeescript.org/#whats-new-in-coffeescript-2 answers this I think.

The biggest change in CoffeeScript 2 is that now the CoffeeScript compiler produces modern JavaScript syntax (ES6, or ES2015 and later). [...] There are very few breaking changes from CoffeeScript 1.x to 2 [...]

So probably that means that the language reference is up to date.

I've never been to the US but I've heard that "everything" is so far apart from each other that people need cars.

Hopefully they will allow some form of direct access to the IR dot projector and camera along with DepthKit or whatever Apple decides to call it

And then the app developers upload the depth data to their servers and use it to track users, and then the servers are hacked and the depth data is taken by the hackers and then the hackers sell the depth data and then someone can use that data to unlock stolen iPhones. Sounds great /s

I have also found that it helps to put swear-words in the commit messages when I'm struggeling a lot with something.

Once I get to that point I will stop working on that specific problem until the next day, but swearing about it in the commit message helps me not think about it anymore and also when I come back to it the next day I can see from the commit what I was struggeling with.

Obviously only do this for repositories that you aren't sharing with anyone.

You could also do it in a shared repo if you don't push the commits and you squash them first. Personally I'm not a squash kind of person and I'd also fear that I pushed without remembering to squash even if I really were planning on squashing.

    >>> import operator
    >>> def add(it):
    ...   return reduce(operator.add, it)

By the way, speaking of sum, I find it a bit strange that Python allows

    'hello' + 'world'

    sum(['hello', 'world'])

Thanks for the response, I appreciated it :)

Here's mine. Almost exactly the same as yours but written a tiny bit different. Also I wrote the complete program.

    #!/usr/bin/env python3
    
    # Word of factor
    wof = { 3: 'Fizz', 5: 'Buzz', 7: 'Bar' }
    
    def fizz (i):
    
        out = ''.join([wof[k] for k in sorted(wof.keys()) if not(i % k)])
    
        return out or str(i)
    
    for i in range(1, 101):
    
        print(fizz(i))

1. I used dicts like the parent to yours. Tuples are almost just as fine and you do get a little bit nicer code in the part that you say

    word for x, word in outputs

    wof[k] for k in sorted(wof.keys())

Now let's say that we've each typed in the code we have here and then the interviewer says "now make it say Bazinga when the number is divisible by 19, and keep the order like with FizzBuzzBar".

Since my wof is global, I can add to it directly

    wof[19] = 'Bazinga'

    outputs.append((19, 'Bazinga'))

But then the interviewer says "now make it say Fnord when the number is divisible by 13, and keep the order still".

Then once again I can simply

    wof[13] = 'Fnord'

    outputs.append((13, 'Fnord'))

So you have to do some extra steps to ensure it's in order. Either you have to redeclare the whole thing (imagine there were one million pairs of numbers and strings!), or you have to sort it, or you have to find where you are going to insert and split it in two and join it around.

Not saying that mine is in any way better, just felt like sharing how I thought about this :)

2. (Wow note #1 was looong, sorry 'bout that.) I prefer splitting up my code like

    out = ''.join([wof[k] for k in sorted(wof.keys()) if not(i % k)])

    return out or str(i)

    return ''.join(word for x, word in outputs if i % x == 0) or str(i)

3. Even when split like I did there, I actually don't think my

    out = ''.join([wof[k] for k in sorted(wof.keys()) if not(i % k)])

One thing, which others have pointed out about this often is that too much is happening in one line but also there is another issue.

We all make typos or logic errors every now and then. In my exprience it's much more difficult to debug list comprehensions compared to... well whatever we call that which is not list comprehensions. Both with regards to error messages and with regards to following what's going on. I maintain that this is true even if you have a habit of using a lot of list comprehensions.
