I bought the QC35-IIs through my works tech budget and was very disappointed to find out how they worked wrt. there being two different voice profiles, where one profile uses this selfvoice thing and has no ANC. This is particularly shite w

I think you're both right. He's still right because my experience suggests that it is 100% likely that somewhere, some system relies on a bug in the TCP protocol stack of another system causing a segfault to shut down something cr

Alright -- I wish you the best of luck, though I'm skeptical that you guys can sell this to businesses. Mostly because as I've gained experience working in the industry, it hasn't been my experience that corporations are will

I want something like this, which is why I more or less have the skeleton and something that at least approaches this idea, built organically through time using various utilities. Rofi, some shell scripts, etc. This is a great idea in theor

This guy has clearly worked for the government. And by work I mean attended meetings, then status meetings about the previous meetings and so on for a couple of years until the project finally starts(already over budget) at which point enou

I'm sorry but what, lol? The media has barely talked about anything else for more than the past two weeks. If you got banned somewhere it's probably because you were spreading misinformation or suggesting there are conspiracies, k

I've just spent the past 3 months reengineering what is essentially a spreadsheet calculator to use pandas. Pandas was chosen before I was there but it seemed like it was perfect for the job. Aaand.. well, I guess it kind of is. But at

That is an absolutely awful article. Example: > The same problem as before repeats itself. Complexity grows to a point that we yet again need a real language to do the job. A script language which allows us to write some code that explai

Because it is a way to force you think about how you structure your code. You necessarily pull out the pure parts and are explicit in handling all the impure parts. This also makes it very easy to test your code. Why is it done in the type

I don't think this is a swipe at Rich Hickey, unless it's considered a swipe to call someone out for repeatedly making misinformed statements about things they don't understand properly.. which is what Hickey does a lot in hi

I recently got a job in the ERP industry(SAP), though my purpose is essentially to do stuff that is not SAP related. I don't think it should surprise anyone that SAP makes mistakes and/or that ERP systems are hard to implement. SA

This sums up my experience with webpack quite nicely. It doesn't help that boilerplates like CRA are so ergonomic in terms of saving startup time in other places as well, because this means I really need to have a good reason to manual

The inventor of PHP is Danish, and Anders Hejlsberg is also Danish, so we had a hand in C# and TypeScript as well. However, this doesn't mean there is a nationally endorsed programming language.

Okay - so what is that reason?

I can't help but find this article incredibly cringy. Firstly, while I can understand some background info, I don't feel like her entire digital biography is needed to tackle this subject. Second, I can't help but think that

Depends on your setup. I run a fairly custom setup without a DE and such and I just use xrandr(arandr) and saved the layouts. I haven't bothered to make anything happen automatically since I have a few different monitor setups, so I ju

This looks absolutely awesome. I had been toying with a similar idea in my head for a while, but I never even started building anything, and now it looks like I won't need to! It had seemed to me that due to how web development has evo

Officially? How could such a thing be accepted officially? What kind of question is that? There is no Ministry of Relationship Creepiness Estimation.

Both of these subreddits make me cringe so hard. Okay, maybe some RA posts are okay because they are legitimately about very complicated relationship issues, but the vast majority of the posts in both AITA and RA are just downright pathetic

Most profound? Is this for real? You don't need to spend very long on that subreddit to see that it's just as susceptible to the typical narrow-minded, black and white Reddit justice as every other subreddit. When it's not cr

I couldn't agree more. I honestly find it rather baffling that someone would write a book on not just regular expressions in general, but one particular variant in one particular language. I've been writing code for over 15 years

Parser combinators are the way to go. I don't use python often enough to know if such a library exists for python, but I would assume so.

I'm pretty baffled someone thinks this is a sustainable business model, but good luck regardless.

No, not even close.

This is just an awful idea all the way through. I'm baffled by how much effort had been put into this. It's almost as if the author went off grid and made this without ever asking anyone if it was a good idea without a second thou

It's worth mentioning that most of the cities in Denmark are similar. Nearly every town that isn't tiny has pedestrian/bike only streets, and the trend seems to be to expand these areas rather than making them smaller. I live

I think that by virtue of being here to comment at all, you are not one of these dark matter devs. The group of people he is describing I think largely don't bother to come to communities like this. They do their job, go home and only

In my experience, that's the best way to learn. I think a lot of people are scared off by intellectual challenges that seem insurmountable because they underestimate what persistence can do. I think my most important lesson in uni was
