Something that is missing in all western news that I have seen so far is why the president did that? The only info is that he said that it is to protect the democracy from north Korean supporters in the opposition, but no more details. Does

That will be wonderful with AI: Sir, I have this conversation with chatgpt where the assistant tells me that you are guilty. Based on the fact that chatgpt is able to correctly count raspberries we can now legally consider that it is r

In my experience, when there is a position of Engineering Manager, this person is almost never directly involved with the tech. Usually companies wants them to be pure manager and have dedicated staff/principal/architect for the t

For me it is not respecting the zen of python by pushing you to bad formatting sometimes just because the tool requires you to. And just for reminder, the following is one important point at the beginning of the pep8: Foolish Consiste

Something like harassment maybe? Either there is an official redundancy plan and that would make sense, but otherwise it is quite the proof that the work is not in question but like a personal vendetta. Or that the director was trying to de

In lots of case linters might be harmful also. It is one thing to have a style guide people follow in most cases, it is another one to rigidly force everywhere the style that the linter enforce. Especially because most linters will impose t

Perfect trend on our speedway run to Idiocracy... I guess it is just lacking having students drinking Gatorade at the same time that they "PDF to brainrot" study to ensure that they will be well educated. Because, as you know, &qu

Same idea but I would not say it like you: - social network site will ask Google if the use is old enough with any random I'd that can be used to match Google response. - but Google will now have a record of your Google account request

Yes, indeed I meant not typescript, not js but something to do a real desktop app. I'm not specially fan of Rust, but here what annoys me is to have to use an electron based app...

Sorry but you don't know the definition of a free software / OSS project. This project is clearly not OSS based on the common definition. They invent their own stupid license that we can say is freemiumish with available sources:

I support the idea of this project as something simple and not going through a third party service is a need. Just sad that it is based on typescript.

I'm obviously not a lawyer, but from what I can see, a project like redis_py is way older than any trademark registration from Redis lab. If I'm not wrong looking at the trademark, database, they have registered them recently (201
