If you use gogoproto, it includes an extension to the protobuf spec, to override json tag for the emitted Go. https://github.com/gogo/protobuf/blob/master/extensions.md Use it like: import "gi

Hey, you're the one who put "read a book" and "enjoy a movie" in the same breath. If I had just quoted "or enjoy a movie" and left of the "read a book" part of what I quoted, would your "n

> I read a book, ... or enjoy a movie. Right there. For lots and lots of people, gaming is in the same class of activity as reading a book or watching a movie. It genuinely feels really weird for me to write that, it feels so obvious.

POSIX is about compatibility for 2 programming languages: C99 and Bourne Shell. POSIX incorporates the C99 spec by reference, and duplicates much of it (lots of pages say "The functionality described on this reference page is aligned

I did that intentionally, and not because FUD. I hear ">100 levels of nesting", and think "huge document", which as demonstrated here isn't necessarily true. So I said "202 bytes" to emphasize "n

by LukeShu 7y ago
On one hand, yes. On the other hand, the standard Ruby "json" gem can be made to overflow on just 202 bytes of valid JSON input.

Funny. Microsoft Works getting discontinued, and Microsoft Office being unable to open Works documents is what pushed me toward OpenOffice (which could open Works Word Processor documents, mostly without issue), since all of my family&#x27

My Intel 5500 drives Firefox at 4K just fine (actually, 6.6K because render at a multiple of 96 DPI, then xrandr to scale down, since GDK_SCALE only supports integers). Driving Zoom at that resolution tends to be painful though...

5 years ago, I would have agreed with you about BtrFS. Since 2012 or 2013, I'd been using BtrFS essentially as a cache on a build server; ephemeral data was kept there, if it was lost, it just meant that later operation would be slow.

Java's build artifacts are too painless. GNU/Linux distributions tend to have a policy of "we build things from source, we don't simply re-publish the authors' build artifacts." Because Java's build ar

The exemption was renewed in 2006 and in 2010 (the would-be-2009 decision was delivered late), but was not renewed in 2012. That said, the exemption was to allow legally bypassing the copy-protection mechanisms; that were preventing otherwi

Specifically, the part of the DMCA that the exemption is for is the part that makes it criminal to bypass copy-protection; it does not grant them additional rights to make or distribute copies. There are lots of forms of copying where the c

Would you care to recommend one? Causally browsing for scientific calculators, the overwhelming majority seem to not have a logx button.

by LukeShu 7y ago
There are 2 separate dedicated buttons for log_e and log_10. Why can't we get a single general log_x button!? I'm tired of having to type log(y)/log(x) instead of log_x(y).

I avoid C++ and stay in straight C as much as I can. GCC's C error messages have definitely improved in response to clang (especially around deep preprocessor stuff). I had assumed that the C++ messages had likewise improved, and tho
