Not just unsupported, I think you need a kernel extension?

I must not be taxing my Linux computers enough :)

Oh my god, your first point. I had to pass arbitrary arguments through a couple layers of shell and I couldn't do it. Gave up and rewrote it all in Python, even though it's annoying in other ways, and I'm decent at shell scripting. It's a nightmare.

dat ecosystem though

Yeah, it still needs a 'back to home' link somewhere

I think there's a space for this. ncdu for example is invaluable to me.

I love many aspects of Nix but for me at least the language is a barrier. I spend time and get better at it but there's a fine number of things people can spend that time on.

It would make a superb April fool's if done correctly :)

It's definitely a pain not knowing if your python3 is 3.5, 3.6, or later. If you stick to using the older syntax and standard library, though, it's a fairly reliable replacement for bash. Though, in my situation the environments are pretty tightly controlled, so maybe I've got a biased set of experiences.

It's really interesting reading these comments. I'm in Australia, more of my friends use iphone (but it's close), nobody I know uses iMessage though, everyone uses WhatsApp. I had to go read about iMessage to understand the context here. Not a fan of Google but this stuff is not endearing me to apple at all.

Anything that can use an LSP server will give you most/all of those benefits. Your favourite editor + LSP, that's the tooling. It's very much worth it.

It's crazy that the check for this was right there in the original code and was obviously missed when porting to Java. Great example of why unit tests are part of the code (and were missing in both in this case).

The diff view with all the features of the normal editor is actually amazing. I've always derided people using a GUI for version control but here I am.

EDIT: derided is a strong word :) just good to learn the command line version before moving to shortcuts

Or getting eaten by a balrog

Pyston versions aren't aligned to Python versions, if that's what you're thinking. This supports 3.x syntax (not sure which exactly, at least 3.8).

We need some technology that turns text files into binary. To the startupmobile!

Your comment makes me want to make up some new nonsense and try to spread it in here. I'll restrain myself though :)

I'm a nobody but I'll tell you a small experience I had with Pyramid (/ Pylons) - it didn't do too much for you in terms of admin UIs and things like Django etc but one thing it did really well is make a lot of its decisions easy to override. It uses the much-maligned Zope Component Architecture, but in practice it meant most parts of it could be switched out when you needed different functionality.

(random mixing of past and present tense because it's still around and presumably still good but I don't use it)

I think you have to strike a balance sometimes, maybe bank on your eventual success and put a few % more in upfront to ease the path later. Using something you already know well is good, given you'll be more productive in it to start with and better understand how it's going to impact you in the future.

I could be on dialup and it wouldn't be any slower, the VPN is utterly atrocious.

I am confused as to whether it happened in spring or winter.

"good old days of planking" damn I'm old. Planking is in my phone's dictionary too, hahaha

Telefission

Closest thing I could find to a plausible explanation was this (not about implants but about hiding bluetooth devices):

"The chappal is such it has an entire phone inside and a Bluetooth device. The candidate had a device inside his ear and someone from outside the exam hall was helping him cheat," police officer additional SP Ratan Lal Bhargav of the Rajasthan police .

But yeah searching for info about this stuff feels like probing an area of a video game where the developers didn't put much content, just many duplicates of the same article on different sites, all from around Feb 22.

Love how fast it loads. I wasn't even sure it had loaded properly, had to refresh a few times (just kidding).

Showing the message the user submitted as part of the success message as well would be reassuring.

That just gets better and better

I am not affiliated with kagi the search engine except as a user, but I would just like to say kagi found it too and I was surprised and impressed.

I woke up in a cold sweat last night with this thought, but yes, Czech company (Russian founders I think)

Or 3:2 even better
