Ahh, shame. Next machine i set up will have something with her name as the hostname. Already got turing, ada (lovelace), and bernlee.

My suggestion is do it. Its a cool project, and clearly there is interest from others who could contribute to the project by suggestions, bug fixing, or general collaboration, helping you learn. Just add some kind of disclaimer in the project that its not ready yet, and that youre still learning and it should be fine.

This worked 👆 👏

I dont use firefox, and im on mobile, so i dont think that would work for me. Thanks anw though

Non paywalled link?

Ill have to check exactly what it writes there and see if i want to disable it

All my projects, which to be fair are mostly programming.

~/Documents/Projects doesn’t make sense to me because theyre not strictly documents. In documents i have - well, documents like bill receipts, forms ive filled in, etc…

My projects are a first-order thing for me if that makes sense, so it makes sense to have them in the top-level of my home.

Everyone complaining, and here I am not having noticed the change because I’ve created that directory for myself years ago :-P

Personally its for organisation

Recharging the mayhem batteries 😄

YouTube definitely does that. Im on Brave, been for years, and in the past year clicking on videos makes them load with several seconds delay, with a popup in the bottom left along the lines of “Experiencing interruptions? Find out why” and the help page it takes you to if you click it, basically gives the default reasons of “youre internet may be slow”, but IIRC it also includes the reason that you are using ad blocking scripts

Im just curious, but how would arch implement age verification if it wanted to? I mean, its basically just the linux kernel, with supporting software like systemd, no? I know systemd is making moves to add “age verification” in the form of an environment variable or something, but that would be trivial to remove as I think about it off the top of my head, or worst case you would just get a fork of systemd without the age verification if they bake it in too deep and make it so the entire systemd ecosystem doesnt work without that variable set

This is my thought process as well. Its ridiculous that a single state of the US - not even the entire country - can have so much sway over a global project.

Ill counter that by saying that because you started with something more low level, the other stuff was easy (my belief).

Also, depending on what the students are actually studying, I think you need to give an introduction to low level stuff because while some will want to do web dev for example, others might want to do low level stuff. Obviously if its a web dev course you dont want to do that, but if its something like CompSci or Software Engineering then i think having a grasp of the fundamentals of low level stuff is necessary.

Lastly, if its a general introduction to programming course I think C has advantages over other languages since almost everything is done by you, instead of the compiler (for example iterating over an array - C: you need to do the for loop to manually handle the data depending on whatever type is stored in the array - Python: for x in y is sufficient). Im tutoring my little sister in programming because they have it in school, and they use python. Sure its easier to get things done, but its harder to learn/teach general programming with python in my opinion. C would have been my choice, especially since at that level its not like you need to teach/learn memory management, or complex data structures. Its the same concepts as with python (input, output, variables, conditionals, loops, functions) but the syntax just doesnt hide too much from you, unlike python, making it easier to understand whats actually going on

Alright everyone, good result. See you all here in a couple years for the new iteration

You’re threatening greenland, and now threatening spain saying stuff like “we dont need their permission to use their bases”, and you have the audacity to act like the victim? 😆

Delete the USA, someone, finally

Walking on my desk as im working, in front of me, and of course swishing the tail right up in my face

Recently had an issue with qt5-webengine not building, leading to stremio not updating. Every fix i tried i had to try to rebuild, only for it to fail until a glorious person posted a comment on its AUR page.

Also, fuck electron

Im a neovim user myself, and i swapped my caps and escape keys at the os level. I touch another computer and am WONDERING WHY IM WRITING LIKE THIS xD

Give fairphone a look. Maybe youll like them and what they do

My point was basically to try to make you look at it from a different perspective. Sure 1 euro is better than 0, but thats not the point I was trying to make.

That looks at it from the perspective of the person in need of that 1 euro, or however much money. Im asking you to look at it from the perspective of the one giving the money. Now ask yourself why they would give just 1, if they can give 5, or 10, or give 1 consistently every month, assuming theyre rich-rich compared to the homeless guy.

The reason seems to be that the person giving the money doesnt care about helping in any way, they just want to do the minimum so that they can claim they help abd support the homeless.

Context and intent matters when discussing things like this, I think. If the intent is self serving, we shouldnt be treating FUTO as a beacon of OSS support. What we should be doing is acknowledging that they did give a small one time donation to various projects, but also recognising that it was for self-serving reasons. I’m sure theres individuals who have given more than 1000 in single payments to these projects, or less but more consistently (monthly, every 6 months, every year, etc). What makes FUTO more of a supporter than those individuals?

Anyway, I hope I explained my thinking well enough :)

Edit: I gave you the upvote even though I dont entirely agree with the way you see this matter, simply because I saw you got downvoted probably by someone else who disagrees with your opinion. However, upvotes/downvotes should be used to rate quality of discussion, not agreement/disagreement with the content.
