Excellent - I’m about to install it for my aged mother, because windows keeps moving her cheese.
I want something that doesn’t change the workflows once she’s learned how to do a task, and that local techs can help her with, and that I can VNC to when I have to.
the translation step from binary (program) -> text (SQL) -> binary (server)
Your concern about this is misguided. Inter-process communication always has to cross a barrier, by definition.
I take it http also feels wrong to you?
Binary protocols do exist, e.g. gRPC, but they incur costs of their own.
Shame I had to scroll this far to find PRQL
No! Bad dev! No biscuit!
Never merge master into a feature branch. It’s called a “wrong-way” merge and it makes the history fucking awful.
You shit in the face of project maintainers when you do this.
You may not care, in fact many don’t. Also people buy timeshares, read celebrity gossip magazines, and vote for scumbags. They are fucking idiots who don’t know what they are doing. So are people who leave wrong-way merges in shared history.
In fact, wrong-way mergers are worse, because you can’t just ignore them - git blame rubs your face in their shit, so they shit in your face forever.
Just don’t fucking do it, OK? Or I will hit you in the throat with a cricket bat soaked in wasps. As a first warning.
If I were a democrat pol, I’d want to keep Gaetz, and Trump, and all the nut jobs.
They are loved by their base and horrible to work with in the houses, but they are electorally toxic.
Prediction for your next presidential election: Trump will still be on trial on federal charges, he will be the nominee anyway, and he will lose badly. DeSantis will bite chunks out of him. Bullish on popcorn.
Or Trump bites chunks out of whoever they do nominate. The party either gets moderate votes, or Trump votes, or DeSantis votes, but not all three.
I’m getting started with i3, so I get your point now.
Ahhh, thanks! Please excuse my error - I am attempting to perform computation using a kilo of wet squidgy protein and fat.
Actually no, I’ve met some people who present themselves like slobs but are excellent human beings.
Fucking hell, way to perpetuate a society where women are valued only for their fuckability.
They are. If Trump stands, it’ll be a big victory for Biden, because Trump has made himself unelectable for swing voters.
Over here, the tories are heading for a wipeout. They’ve been telling us their shit smelled like roses, and it worked, up until it didn’t.
Edgy shit like this is why anti-woke is a vote winner. It’s repulsive to normal people.
It’s not a uniform, it’s a dress code, and it long predates boomers.
My friend, you haven’t heard about Oracle.
Microsoft at least gave the world Powershell, to balance out their sins. I can also name other good things they have done. Oracle is pure and deliberate evil.
I believe that the human race will end in one of three ways:
Another Kagi fan here. I pay $10 a month.
I’m a reasonably heavy search user, but have never hit the quota.
It’s wonderful to have relevant results again.
The one thing it doesn’t work for is shopping. From time to time I use Google. I should probably switch that to Bing, as the lesser of two evils.
Deliberately duplicate a mac address, and worse, deliberately pick a device that’s definitely going to be online in the same network segment?
At first I thought you were either trolling or profoundly ignorant.
Then I remembered that wifi is CSMA, and thought, hang on… is this actually a genius idea? Has this user come up with a hack that no-one else knows about? So I tried it.
It doesn’t work. I couldn’t even join.
So no, you are either trolling or ignorant.
Hers some discussion and links, for anyone interested: https://superuser.com/questions/1132935/duplicate-mac-on-a-wifi-network-problems
Racial origins of those terms? Citation needed.
Black and white, in the sense of good and evil, have had their connotations for a fucking long time, whereas black and white to describe skin colour are relatively recent etymologies. I’m pretty sure that Romans didn’t call themselves “white” or others “black”, for example.
I’m willing to be taught, but this sounds like bullshit to me.
The etymology being wrong doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t drop freighted terminology, I just don’t want false justification. Bullshit is never a valid reason to do something.
Pure FUD. Worse, it’s wilfully stupid.
Are you in the habit of picking pipeline commands at random? Do you not usually have a purpose in mind? OBVIOUSLY the receiving end has to understand what it’s receiving, or what the fuck are you even doing?
Do you believe that your text processing commands don’t have to understand what they receive?
Let’s get the ports of the node container.
Bash:
docker ps | grep node | cut -n 6 -f ' '
Pwsh:
docker-ps | where name -eq 'node' | select ports
First the grep command shits the bed because at some point you started a new container running a nodejs image.
Then the cut command fails because you had a container with a space in the name, so it outputs mounts instead of ports.
That’s a non-issue with sematic tools. Semantic tools are also legible. Yeah, I can figure out what that awk command does, but it’s meaningless unless I also know the shape of the data is supposed to operate on.
You don’t write “USE 2nd DATABASE; SELECT 3rd COLUMN FROM 10th ROW”, do you? Why would you want to do that in a shell?
Ate you joking? Auto-complete works out of the box, it’s a shell feature. Install pwsh and save keystrokes.
Observability is a capability my last employer really fucked up. I would have loved this power.
Trying to figure out wtf is going on with database locks, or celery tasks you can’t find in the dashboard, was like blindfold surgery.
Fat chance that team would use elixir, though. Nothing more esoteric than python.
