Meh. It happened once, and then I bought a little tripod mount thing and now I get my video and get to watch. Problem solved. Granted, HN is the only “social” media I have.

Ubisoft connect is a horrific, bug ridden piece of shit on windows, too. Every once in a while I accidentally buy a Ubisoft game and every single time I spend 15 minutes fighting with the game/launcher then give up. It’s not that I cou

Immutability “maybe” (and that’s a massive grain a salt, because this is not a specific thing I’ve ever worked on to say any different) having certain use cases where it works well is not the same thing as making literally every single obje

Immutability is, quite possibly, the dumbest “silver bullet” solution ever to be praised as a solution to anything. Congratulations, nobody is going to sneakily update an object on you, but also, nobody knows about your updates either. It’s

No, you are wrong: https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/chec... I don’t even know how you could force someone to testify against themselves. Seems like an unreliable witness…

It’s weird because you chose wording that isn’t entirely correct, and also chose to ignore that whether a lawyer is present or not, you cannot be compelled to testify against yourself, which is what a lawyer is going to tell you during your

I don’t know why Canada gets so many weird AF legal claims on HN and Reddit (in particular that we supposedly don’t have the right to self defence), but we do, in fact, have the right to remain silent and to not be compelled to testify agai

Seriously though. People always comment about how Call of duty voice chat was braving the depths of degeneracy, but those people have obviously never done random pick up groups in gaming discords.

When I worked at IBM, the pay was not great, and managers were extremely combative over raises and recognition. IBM was actually a terrible job. Upper management consistently shits on the workers for “not being agile enough”, but the wall

You’re right, but it’s (I agree; incorrectly) been called a memory leak for a long time, to inappropriately over allocate/not free resources. Coming from my java days, they called this a memory leak there too. It’s definitely a more in

It’s not impossible. AI developers can 100% trace node that contribute to a result during the processing of a prompt, therefore they can be attributed. They’ll never do this, of course, cause they’re riding high on wins of stupid people pus

I think you’re assuming things that I don’t actually believe. The OSI are scum because of their incessant propaganda against source-available and constant attacks of developers that aren’t being bootlickers. If a developer wants for their c

The quote means to not assume something is slow, but to actually measure it. Pure Functional Programmers state that you should not even measure performance. They take this position because despite their many claims that Pure FP is performan

JS developers have largely accepted the FP way of life, it’s why many JS apps are as slow as they are despite JS being actually quite fast.

lol. No they don’t. The official line from /r/haskell is “all optimization is the root of all evil”. Nobody is going to use theorem proving languages for a lot of reasons, but actually, mostly cause functional programmers did them

by wredue 3y ago
It’s actually worse than you think. Functional programmers have been in a massive propaganda campaign to actively paint optimization not just as “usually not necessary”, but actually as a negative thing. Ask any developer what they think of

Corporate bootlickers frown upon developers restricting corporate uses of their software. The OSI is run by corporations, for corporations, and has successfully run propaganda campaigns to shit on source available licenses purely on the bas

Symbiotic relationships are, in fact, a completely natural phenomena that is observed in non-human animal behaviour.

Ridiculous argument. Why on earth would people care about the birds in the context of natural processes compared to unnatural processes? This is a monumentally stupid apples and oranges “gotcha”.

If you look at intel history, they bounce like crazy. That said, I saw they were low and picked up a couple grand of intel in my playing tfsa and it’s been happy.

Unfortunately, this is becoming somewhere between difficult and impossible. Lots of vendors make their “dumb” stuff unequivocally worse than the smart stuff, but just not using the “smart”. I think the worst part right now is over-complicat
