I mean, exec already exists, so you can become anything anyways.

To me the icons in the first are not useful and they are also distracting, I immediately only scan the text while ignoring the icons. I also immediately ignore the icons and scan the text on the latter one. I guess it's mostly from not

Are you saying it's closer? Or do you refer to using time instead of distance? Even if you live in a city, getting to a hardware store usually takes at least 15 minutes unless you really live like right next door. Usually takes longer.

This was just painful to read. >For my washing machine, they were unknown unknowns - I didn’t even expect there’d be a hole to drill, new hoses to buy, a cold water tap cap to remove, and a spigot PVC wall to drill out. No, most of this

Since no one has said, but I strongly feel like it should be said and it's so great and positive abd triggers many memories. Secret tunnel!

Can't edit anymore but a better (only slightly) and clearer version is u32 length = (code <= 0x7F) + (code <= 0x07FF) + (code <= 0xFFFF); u32 limit = (code <= 0x10FFFF); u32 allowed = ((code < 0xD800) || (0xDF

I mean, isn't the trivial answer to just collapse the if else tree into just math that's evaluated always? u32 a = (code <= 0x7F); u32 b = (code <= 0x07FF); u32 c = ((code < 0xD800) || (0xDFFF < code)); u3

It's refreshing to see it said out loud today as an ideal, even if they didn't really believe it then nor today, the idea on page 24: "But what happens when everyone can put their message in front of a lot of people? When the

Fortunately a quick fix is to first go through a cryptographically secure trapdoor function that makes the initial check security time invariant, like with sha256 with a random salt, before checking exact byte matching.

You'll get a lot of hate for saying these things, but it's good you said them. People really need to face reality and that our society simply cannot sustain even limited immigration if those people end up as a negative for the sta

Wayland is still broken in so many ways it's not funny. Just recently I had to switch back to X11 because Wayland was just awful performance wise, like stuttering and constant fps drop. And this on a what 2023 high quality laptop with

I mean yeah, when you make multiplayer too clean it becomes less fun.

Np, it happens. By not accepting I meant they might say "what does that have to do with this?", "that's not related" or "that has nothing to do with this". Ie. they completely skip over and don't acce

My recounting informs of an issue, namely not accepting the argument (analogue illustrating the issue and argument), and then attacking the non-argument, ie the analogue instead of the argument. The reply to my post has the same issue, thou

by emilfihlman 2y ago
Yeah, and I somewhat agree with you. The problem is that for tacking double standards an analogue is kind of required, and analogues are good for trying to explain to a person who doesn't understand the matter but understands or is fam

"Because analogies and metaphors are not arguments. They are illustrations. In an argument, you need to show the link between cause and effect, a chain of reasoning." Presents that I would use an analogue/metaphor as an argum

by emilfihlman 2y ago
Sigh. You made an assumption that I don't know how an argument goes and/or that I don't know how to use an analogue/metaphor, and you attacked me saying people don't accept analogues/metaphors. This is about th

by emilfihlman 2y ago
You ran straight into the exact issue I brought up.

by emilfihlman 2y ago
I've unfortunately noticed that many people don't usually accept analogues or metaphors in arguments, unless they are trying to work with you. They either dismiss them outright or attack the analogue/metaphor without understa

Maybe they are more modern and with more features and so on, but the default user experience absolutely sucks on tmux and ip, which makes using them useless on servers you don't control, and asking to "oh lemme just drop my config

Syntax wise awful? I'm not sure you know what you are saying. It's basically just C/C++ without the chaotical Template shit from C++. Syntax wise JavaScript is one of the best. If only it had types.

Not sure why you are so hostile about it, this has nothing to do with arrogance but effective communication on a board with people from all over the place. "mt" is not a recognised abbreviation for meter, nor is it taught as so an

It seems to only have 5x optical. I'm pretty annoyed, since I had 10x optical on the Huawei P30 Pro many years ago, and I really loved that camera.

Yeah, nah. The possibilities are: Everyone can vote by entering the country. Or only citizens can vote. The direct purpose of any ID system is to identify people so that citizens can assert control over the state by voting, not the other wa

I don't really get what you mean? Only citizens can of course vote.

I guess it's the natural cycle of money always spreading its tentacles to everywhere, and specifically applying pressure after sufficient metastasis and entrenching.
