From my experience all the time (probably even more) it saves me is wasted on spotting bugs and the bugs are in very subtle places.

This is what it is called a programming language, it only exists to be able to tell the machine what to do in an unambiguous (in contrast to natural language) way.

Sure, but my point is that if it is implemented right, you won’t even know you’re using IPv6 until you check network configuration.

If IPv6 is done right you don’t even know you have it. If you use a cell phone or a home Internet, there is a high chance you are already using IPv6.

We saw other similar news from China which turned out to be a bunk. I wouldn’t hold my breath. I would love to be wrong though.

That’s how I understand Mastodon’s meant to work. You have your instance like you do a mail server, then you have full control over it.

They also waive rights for class action lawsuits, one should also say to not agree with that.

Not only that, but they also waive right for class action lawsuits and don’t make it clear if you can opt out of it.

Do we know it is Python?

For 1 hour = 4^(-1) characters

I mean I won’t argue that paper isn’t safest in terms of privacy, because I would be wrong, but the app is open source and doesn’t store data outside of the phone so it should be the second safest way.

Though, I’m upset about Maya (I think initially it was called cycles or something like that) how it started similarly (although it wasn’t open source) and transformed into a piece of shit.

I always start a session with disabling auto commit (note, I could add it to my settings, but then it would backfire that one time my settings don’t execute, so I’m making it a habit to type it out every time, first thing I connect)

BTW: what kind of genius decides that auto commit should be enabled by default?

In the MySQL client console where you can run multiple commands.

If you add semicolon in language library commands such as fetch() you will get an error.

You need semicolons if it is a script with multiple commands to separate them. It is not needed for a single statement, like you would use in most language libraries.

Obviously California or Canada.

Ah sorry this is a tech community so obviously it is computer animation.

I’m Bill I don’t comment my code (except complex parts), instead I try to make code clear, including using proper variable and function names and try to keep functions short. I don’t think I ever got lost in my own code in my 20+ years of experience. Even got complements about it.

The programming language is meant for humans to read/write, if you need to put comments to understand your code then your code sucks.

What about this? https://youtu.be/5XY3K8DH55M

Also I created this repo to create a reproducible sec environment for myself. I added other languages, but personally work mostly with python. It is basically resonating for handling all the boiler plate:

For packaging in docker I started to use nix2container project as it gives me a greater control over layers. So for example when I package my phyton app I typically use 3 layers:

• python and it’s dependencies
• my application dependencies
• my application, which is very tiny compared to other two, so there is great reuse of the layers

The algorithm mentioned in the video also helps a lot with reuse, but the above is more optimized by frequency of how things typically change.

BTW: today I discovered this https://github.com/astro/microvm.nix I haven’t play with it yet, but in theory it would let me generate a microvm image (in similar fashion to generate a docker container) which would let me to run my app natively as a tiny VM on EC2 for example, and use only minimum necessary of a typical OS to run it.

Yeah, it “solved” the “it works on my machine” by bundling the machine with the code.

But it doesn’t even compile!

The problem I have with it is that all the time it saves me I have to use on reading the code. I probably spend more time on that as once in a while the code it produces is broken in a subtle way.

I see some people swearing by it, which is the opposite of my experience. I suspect that if your coding was copying code from stack overflow then it indeed improved your experience as now this process is streamlined.
