Strange: you'd think that nerds shut in their rooms is the perfect circumstance for coding.

Perhaps this was an instance of “Don't mind the case, I lost the original one so the case is from MW”.

I mean, it stands to evolutionary reason that Python shouldn't have a GIL.

I recently found the games that I had back in the day on some demo disk: PLBM Pong and Gravity Well (iirc—if it's not Lunar Lander instead). Both are obviously not too original, but Pong had a bunch of parameters, so you can have minus

Hmmm, I guess it only affects discovery between phones, because I just recently re-set up syncing with two laptops, and it worked fine without entering the IDs or ips or anything—just clicked on the discovered IDs. Of course, this issue sti

On Android, Syncthing-fork is a bit nicer because it has a native app interface instead of the embedded web interface. However, on Android 11 the Play Store release doesn't work with folders other than /Android/media or the a

Did you read the article? P.S. If the CleanFlash installer contains the Flash Player distribution, instead of downloading and patching it on the user's machine, then the author indeed deserves to be slapped with a complaint for such an

Yep: Meccano clones of my childhood weren't brightly colored, unlike what I see in search now—so I almost nostalgia'd all over myself from seeing that thing. E.g.: https://rc-today.ru/UserFiles/Image/89&#

Well I have trouble taking advice from you, because you're obviously not a real sim racer: you haven't even told me to buy a wheel.

I keep wondering how Codemasters, and Sony/Psygnosis before them, obtained any kind of accurate info about F1 cars. Well, sure they have the license, but do the teams share numbers? Codemasters have mentioned on the forums that they ha

I bet a Clojure-style ‘threading’ arrow function can be easily done in Python. arrow(my_list [map args] [filter args] [filter args] [map args] [sum]) For cases when function argument positions differ, you'll need some special va

Dirty stuff probably. Wouldn't want to taint the primary workhorse by association with ogling naked people and buying weed.

This is missing one large avenue of speedup: the startup time, which is bad with Python. Some of my Lua scripts are done faster than Python starts up, even when doing file i/o. This is especially crucial for interactive ‘productivity’

I also recommend an onscreen magnifier that appears and disappears on hotkeys. I use MacOS' built-in one, set up to show when ctrl-alt are held. I have only moderate myopia, but the magnifier makes it much more comfortable to look at s

Yeah, Richard Dawkins finally cleared it up for me that the primary stage of insects like butterfly is the larva. The larva sits around eating stuff and generally having a good time, whereas after turning into the butterfly it's gonna

There were videos floating on the webs of bugs taking flight—looked way messier than this, pretty much jumbling around with legs swinging this and that way, until finally going in the air. This vid, I think: https://www.youtube.c

In the 2000s they were among the go-to strategy games. The hot-seat mode probably helped. Of course, the publishers and devs saw little profit from all that following—unlike middle-aged dudes selling pirate CDs in mall stands. HOMM 5 was de
