Looking at the rest of their recent update history, this likely just broke... Task failed successfully.

Yes, that's the point of why CoCs are essentially useless. Humans should be able to interact politely in any setting and if they don't, the issue needs to be settled with good old human interaction anyways.

Why? It doesn't say you need to have extensive experience with them. I would assume this is mostly to dissuade applicants that are not aware of the potential challenges ahead.

I found the book "Linear Algebra" and accompanying lecture recordings by Jim Hefferon very approachable and solid. It's free, including exercises and an (also free) solutions book.

You will never find a level of "beginner friendly" that suits everyone. I agree that this is not an ideal start - at least without any further clarification - for beginners but I think it works well for people that already known m

Yes. Unless the party generating the QR code first obtains its external IP address by other means, which would still require some kind of echo server. Even then, ignoring outdated approaches like UPnP, a commonly accessible host would be ne

I second this. As someone who still learned "Schreibschrift" in school, I have a tiny bit of a head start but a lot of letters changed or at least changed in style drastically but I can reverse-engineer as you described.

Structure and control flow feels very Python/Ruby-ish, however, when you get into the depths of pattern matching and binary deconstruction or even macros, Elixir syntax can become somewhat messy. However, the same concepts, once unders

We've been running Elixir in production for 5+ years and most of our team only know some very basic erlang data structures for working with the :dbg module on live systems. Erlang knowledge is not needed for building products with Elix

Also: As if you didn't need "5-10 highly specialized engineers" (neither needs this number but alas) to get all AWS serverless services to coexist and scale cost and compute efficiently with proper monitoring, logging, permis

Is it? If you compare to serverless, you'd almost have to compare AWS EKS Fargate and with that, there's a lot less operational overload. You still have to learn ingress, logging, networking, etc. but you'd have to do that wi

I love the idea of mermaid but the syntax is somewhat convolutes and the integrations in tools like GitLab are very unstable.

Maybe a fluid, touch-centric experience would be less important for most use-cases if not every simple to-do app had to be over-engineered with 20 animations and gestures...

True but "fake it and then immediately proceed to make it" is definitely more appreciated than just burning through deals by lying for a long time, which "fake it till you make it" usually boils down to.

Unintentional remedy: with Starlink now giving them HD video coverage for the whole flight, I doubt they would be able to do this convincingly anymore. (Assuming they ever did. I do not know about any such launch)

Don't blame it on the people, correct. However, it is safe to say that the policies surrounding this sector have failed quite spectacularly in bringing new talent to Germany in the past 10 years.

Witty response. - Too bad it falls flat considering there was no attempt at criticism but just a mention of a different, unrelated topic. But alas, I know how these conversations play out so rest assured that I shall no longer correct you.
