I'm thoroughly disappointed.

Most software expect an error of some sort (e.g. file not found, permissions) and do nothing with it except print it. This would be sane behavior with a NFS timeout. Let the user retry rather than hanging forever. Consider a startup script

In Go, it is a single code path. Contexts can be canceled and they also come with propagating timeouts. The timeouts simply trigger a cancellation, so the only code path is handling cancellation. There's nothing complicated about it, s

You can give it a shot and then do a factory reset if anything stops working.

An assertion, I think, would crash the program. In that sense implementing them is simple - just panic when the condition is violated. Go prefers plain checks that return errors, though. Panics should be used for truly unexpected conditions

Sure, it's simple. But you would have to be able to modify the container settings anyway. For all practical uses, and certainly in my case, you could just make it run a different image at that point. Or copy another executable into the

If you're already running another process in the container, you could do whatever you want anyway.

It was disabled by default, and could only be enabled using environment variables. Even when enabled, the whole thing ran in Docker and the socket was bound to loopback, so you could only connect to it from within the container. When the in

At a previous workplace we had a few places in the code which used the word backdoor. It was not an actual backdoor though, but merely a debugging server that could be enabled and allowed you to inspect internal state during runtime. At som

There just isn't any good competition. As with anything else, lack of competition stifles innovation. Why should they spend engineer time on this when it sells just as well?

NXDOMAIN is often cached for much longer because it's assumed not to change soon. Sometimes, as in this case, that's a wrong assumption.

I'm not though. It had the intended effect on me. I don't believe what he has to say is so revolutionary that I'm missing much by not reading it, and I agree with the sentiment that I'm respecting the Unabomber's go

While just not reading it likely has no effect, making this public post about it might dissuade others from reading and discourage manifesto publishing.

Because they now offer more content, at a higher quality, with greater convenience than when they first started. It is also perceived as high value socially, something you should obviously have. This wasn't always the case, and the pri

You would never initialize an enum like that, since you would use one of the enumerated values instead. That is, after all, the reason behind defining an enum in the first place. When could you end up with an enum that has an invalid value?
76.
by orisho 6y ago
Sure it could. A junior programmer aware of the values but not the repercussions could easily overlook this without any malice or disregard for privacy.

Sleep studies are often done at home now using a device you get and then bring back the next day. It has a finger VO2 sensor, snoring sensor, and you attach it to your chest to detect breathing. Contact your physician.

It's not. What's more common isn't that it's from Israel, but that people bother to mention Israel when that's the home country of the responsible company.

I agree - it isn't a real trade-off. I always hear people saying this and am puzzled by it. Indeed writing "good" code - modular, clean, tested is a matter of having good habits and acting on them. Sure, it technically takes

This is my entire CI yaml, which copies static HTML and other files (I don't use any static site generator, just plain HTML & CSS) and flushes the Cloudflare cache: stages: - deploy - clear-cache pages: stage: dep

GitHub pages / GitLab pages. I prefer the latter since the CI for pages is less magical and more flexible as a result - you aren't limited to what they support, and they don't claim a 100GB* traffic limit (just fair use). Cou

They mentioned something about the suit pressure for one of them being lower than expected and asked them to check for "white teeth" on 3 zippers, which they reported seeing on all 3. Can anyone explain what that is?

The difference I was aiming at is that you (a library author, whether public or internal) shouldn't implement adder, you should implement add. And let your caller implement adder using add, if they require it. If you only expose adder,

If you know better than the calling code, you're probably writing a framework and not a library :) A library should not be limiting, and should be easy to adapt for use with other code. Frameworks are highly opinionated so it's ok

Is that true though? You can pass the function itself. If your interface is a function that takes no parameters and returns an int, just wrap this function with another function that takes no arguments and moves the arguments into a closure

Sure, this problem can be solved as can any other -- but there's a cost to it in development time. For every feature, the dev working on it had to do it in 3 steps to ensure backwards compatibility and handle partial migration failures

Yes, that one is definitely very unfortunate :(
