I observed it on myself, although after some time I started doing it too. My belief was that it's because English is not spelled the same way it sounds, so people who learn it are forced to memorize pronunciation and writing separately

I observed that too on myself (English is my second language), and I even wrote comments like that in the past, but after 20 years I noticed that I started making those errors myself, which sucks. I'm guessing when you read people maki

It is and that's why now bitcoin folks now are distancing itself saying that crypto != cryptocurrency and the only real cryptocurrency is bitcoin and crypto are all "shitcoins".

Except in this scenario you're giving money to some random dude on the street that looks like lives in his mom's basement, so it's even worse.

Could you expand on "But the moment you step off the happy path then you will find yourself lost in the woods."? Because from my experience FreeBSD is very predictable, and knowing how things are laid out you can figure things out

The idea was about opening the API, and this suggestion was to argument that it makes easier for the malicious bots. So this was suggested to make the API less valuable for that purpose. I think the only problem would be if this API was use

I do like the module that automatically creates a home directory on first login. It works well when you use ldap or similar mechanism for authentication.

I don't use NixOS myself, but have Nix installed on my Mac, and it seems to provide all functionality of package or version managers I needed. I think though it is more complex because it is a programming language that provides this fu

You seem to put trust in technology to do important tasks, when they have problems securing a stupid light bulbs. There's a joke about it: Tech Enthusiasts: Everything in my house is wired to the Internet of Things! I control it all fr

I have a representative who I agree pretty much on all issues. The problem though is that he is one of 435 people in the House. He can just vote for, against, or propose changes. But then will have to fight against those who will easily acc

That's weird that it was implement to preempt. Normally bills add on top of each other so why it is different here? As a Californian I would prefer that bills add additional protections especially when it comes to privacy.

Oh man, HTC 10 was the worst phone I owned in terms of repair-ability (I even saw one phone repair place explicitly saying they don't support that phone). Not only you risk screen (primarily) and other components damage. You can also b

Not the GP, but I became a big fan of using poetry for managing python package dependencies. For managing python itself and binary libraries I started using Nix package manager. It allows to describe all dependencies via code, but with time

Perhaps I was just proving author's point. I tried to say that from mentioned tools only poetry can be called as a dependency management. The other tools are used for different purposes, but perhaps could be used as a piece of package

But Python has a decent and a reproducible way of installing packages. The problem python has is that things evolved over time, so you can find on the net plenty of outdated information. There is also a lot of blogs and articles with bad pr

Keep in mind that Python is 31 year old (it's even older than Java) it was created around the same time as world wide web. So it started when no one even knew they would need dependency management and evolved over time from people post

I think that depends on library. The ones I use seem to use appear to not do that. In fact I think I actually have seen that more in Go. What goes for Go though is that you won't compile your code until you fix it. In Python you could

Frankly this seem like a big deal when I first started using GnuCash after using Quicken for many years. But after a while it doesn't bother me that much. The process also is not entirely manual. The banks export their transactions in
