That works too. I've done both and I currently use Just because it collects the entrypoints to the project into a single file. This can provide an advantage where there's a bit of interdependence across your entrypoints.

E.g: You have a docker container, you might be `run`ning it, `exec`ing it etc. from the same compose-file. So Just gives you the ability to link those shared commands within the same file. Once the entrypoints get too numerous you can either break them into scripts (I do this partially depending on the level of behavioral complexity in the script) or partition your justfiles and import them into a single master.

I see that Steve Klabnik an Corey Haines apologized on their blogs, and you're right that I was wrong there. The reason I wrote that was in the article it says "I queried some tweeters for more information on why exactly it was so bothersome. I didn’t get apologies from these tweeters."

I do want to point out that if you complain about someone in a medium, it's reasonable to expect the apology or explanation there. If someone is a jerk in front of other people to you, they should clarify their behavior in front of everyone, not just a direct, personal apology.

This is kind of my point - I'm not a neurologist or social scientist, but, in my opinion, we humans don't seem well equipped to deal with the group sizes the internet makes available. I think it's totally valid to point out that the problem here isn't really the individual behavior per-se, it's the behavior in the context of 10k others. In the blink of an eye, we've made it possible for virtually everyone to reach an enormous amount of people, so easily, and with so little oversight, that it falls on those people to take responsibility for engaging with the platform in the first place.

And yet no thought is given to broadcasting a thought to thousands or millions of people simultaneously. You're right, by the way, nobody should be put on trial for minor transgressions like this, but in a humane world, they wouldn't happen either.

also, FTA, it appears they did ask for an apology, which they apparently didn't get. Another thing interactions on the internet make very hard, is that owning your transgressions when you're wrong has very little utility as the other person is easy to objectify.

If it's reasonable for a 12yo to be able to play in a for-money tourney, then I don't think it's unreasonable to think they should know the difference between right and wrong.

Rust 1.62.0 4 years ago

Not being too familiar with the underlying mechanics, I'm curious to know- How much will this improve the performance?

In normal conditions you can check for a ZWJ, but with regional coding chars, you would have to consider the regional chars block as a single char in the reversal. Given that is isn't necessarily locale dependant but presentation layer dependant, there might not be anough info to decide how to act.

My suggestion to you is going to sound pithy, but its what worked for me: do problems. Lots and lots of problems.

Pick a direction (maybe discrete math, if you're trying to do CS) and get a book (I like EPP, as it is super accessible) and go, in order, through each chapter. Read, do the example problems, and do EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM in the (sub)chapter section enders.

Its a time commitment, but if you really want to learn it, this is one way to do so. IMO finding the right textbook is key.

Just a side note, but some jurisdictions treat faxing similarly to giving a document in-person. For example, signing a contract and faxing it can be considered the same as certified mail. Generally not so with email. I'm not saying it's right by the way, just that is how it is sometimes.

Tiny Tiny RSS 6 years ago

Running FreshRSS on my cluster with FeedMe and happy with it. I looked at TinyRSS when getting going. Chose FreshRSS because it can run self-contained, whereas TinyRSS requires Redis. Just one less moving part is all AFAICT. Could be wrong, don't really care at this point as FreshRSS is fine and working. :)

From what I've picked up, creating Domain-Specific Languages is one of the Lisp family's strong points. Whether its a good thing or a bad thing is another matter.

One thing this video implies is that no radios are on during airplane mode. Perhaps my terminology is imprecise but the passive GPS receiver can remain active. Still, its creepy (though unsurprising) that it uploads the data anyways.

BTW, having the GPS on must have been a massive battery drain. I know it is on my phone, especially for initial triangulation. I wonder if low power mode would help?

Interesting.

The article says the standard is 4' 8", and the South mostly used 5' 6". 8" variation seems like not that much when you're dealing with something as imprecise as a wagon wheel.

I don't know though. Thanks for the link.
