That's good to hear. I never even tried to make anything for macOS because I opened Xcode and.. well, you know.

The mistakes in the text made me doubt it was AI, but who knows, maybe it's doing that on purpose now

WHAT D:

Wait, how are you supposed to say mate?

Being dead has no impact on the truth, actually.

I call it the "British comedy effect". And it's awful, and if you like it, you're awful too, sorry to say.

One of these days I'm gonna have to learn why cross-site scripting even matters, especially with modern browsers restricting a script's access to anything local

Uh-oh

How can he not include a video of it working? D:

Same for me, though I'm trying to change it. Tests are great, but it's really really hard to add them to a project that didn't start with them.

For better, my friend

This is, in fact, what git was made for

That's a (bad) joke, right?

That's rough, I'm sorry for your loss. I've been on dialysis for 5 years now (in-center, I couldn't do home for.. reasons). In the beginning I was considering giving up, but it did finally get somewhat better, and I'm fairly well adjusted now. I mean, it still sucks (especially losing about 5 hours 3 days a week), but I'm able to not think about it when I'm not there, at least.

The rules are very strict, primarily with respect to weight. That is, was (and still am) fat, and that's a no-no. I've lost 120 pounds so far, with at least 10 more to go before I will finally be (possibly) approved!

I've been on dialysis for 5 years now... which means when I eventually get listed for transplant, I'll be at the top of the list, because nobody survives 5 years...

Where are the Apple Silicon chips in this comparison?

Yeah, that was my thoughts as well. What database is this? In Postgres you definitely have to update materialized views manually....

I can't imagine trying to do real work on an iPad. But, I guess there are people now that can't image the inverse?

Be honest... when was the last time you ran pip install and didn't end up in dependency hell?

Hasn't been in issue in at least 5 years. Maybe 10. Doubly so now that we're all using uv. You _are_ using, uv, right?

I've been out of the loop on DuckDB, where can I get a real overview of what the excitement is about? It just looks like a new sqlite from the CLI...

Do they share the original CT scans?

What? Trump just did it with an executive order!

Yeah I understand that. You still shouldn't do it.

I feel like it was obvious I was being hyperbolic about the 99.9% figure.

But still, thank you for the long and thought-out reply. You're mostly right, of course, about the symbols I was familiar with. I didn't know about the "size of a set" using the |X| notation, that's new to me, but yeah.

I've heard the explanation of "compiling it in your head" before, and it makes sense, and I think I get the idea. However, that's a ton of work to understand a post, and my ADHD is way too strong.

I did go read about the lemma which is not Burnside's, though that lead down a rabbit hole (I had never heard of a lemma).

Anyway, I think you're mostly right about all of this, but I do think the position of "it's not the symbols" is a common misconception. It's like you handed me a recipe book in Spanish, and I said I don't speak Spanish, and you said "well, the the book isn't really _about_ Spanish, you know"

I was primarily offended by the second code snippet, in which there is a variable named foundException but it is not an exception.

I didn't realize it was Sage (I didn't know that existed) but I'm not sure that actually makes a difference. Obviously it works, and that's fine, but it's still horribly ugly.

"under the impression" ???

We have proof. There is no guessing here.

They probably would. But so long as the decisions are made using secret information, how can we know? We can only assume they are lying to us, until they show the proof.

But that's not the case... the random-looking very-large value X has to go through a conversion function to get the true value of 2024.12.25 T 23:59, just like every other value. Surely nobody is just dividing the Unix time by 86400 like people keep suggesting? What kind of a hack would think they could do date math themselves?

It's definitely not the right way, in this case.
