This blog post has a few inaccuracies, so the situation isn't as bad as it seems. (It is still annoying and requires thought though). I'm just going to ignore the part where Clang apparently sabotages itself by requiring `-include

Even with JS, if it is classical synchronous JS it is much better than the modern blind push for async JS, which causes the browser to try to restore the position before the JS has actually created the content.

Perhaps, but it is absolutely relevant . Most of the horrible formatting results are due to the formatter trying really hard when the user really should introduce a variable.

There are 3 major problems with automated code formatters: * Handling of multiple newlines to break sections, or none to group related functions (e.g. a getter with a setter). Sometimes it's even best to move functions around for b

It's not merely rude, it is actively detrimental . I'd call it "malicious" if that didn't imply proof of conscious ill-will.

Even with postgres, you don't have to use the system instance; there's nothing stopping you from running the server as a child process. You probably need to support this for your testsuite anyway.

Theft is correct but for a different reason. The #1 reason for all AI scrapers is to replace the content they are scraping. This means no "fair use" defense to the copyright infringement they inevitably commit.

It's not just "kings", but "distant kings" in most cases. The French Revolution being a notable counterexample.

That fundamentally requires a snapshot-capable filesystem, so you need to use a distro designed around such.

I'll admit to unfamiliarity with the .NET version, but for Python even `threading.local` is a useless implementation if you care at all about performance. Performant thread-local variables require ahead-of-time mapping to a 1-or-2-le

Also task-local variables, which almost all systems other than C-level threads basically give up on despite being widely demanded.

Frankly, it's time to look into seeing how recall elections work in various states. "Our legally elected representative directly refuses to represent us" should be plenty of grounds.

Only the get half is `map`-like. In combination it's more like a property descriptor, which is far easier to understand and much more efficient. And, if it wasn't obvious, it's only the `set` half where lenses suck for perf

This is equivalent to that for people who are irrationally terrified of mutability, and are willing to abandon performance.

Hm, does caching the result of each unique `tput` fix that?

If it's on GOG it probably wasn't that obscure. Also, sometimes the original version doesn't work but the GOG version does, or even vice versa. I've seen all sorts of oddities.

Related: the `COLORFGBG` variable and the `tput el` sequence.

It gets worse. Some browser APIs respect `LC_TIME`. Others say "fuck standards, I'm using `LC_MESSAGES`". This means that if those locales differ about say, y/m/d ordering, it is quite possible for the way the bro

Part of the problem with the DMCA is that the "perjury" clause only applies to "claiming that some IP exists", not "claiming that this violates the IP".

There is one way in which AI has made it easier: instead of maintainers trying to figure out how to talk someone into being a productive contributor, now "just reach for the banhammer" is a reasonable response.
