Shouldn’t that be:
DELETE FROM real_influencers WHERE name = 'Simon Riggs';

Lol, same.

But this is not the super tic tac toe I know (and also implemented 10 years ago in college). Here you play until all ttts are solved. The version I know, has a winner only if in the bigger grid there are three wins in a tic tac toe fashion.

Yes, right. We could completely erase one third of exploitable vulnerabilities (by your numbers) only by switching to modern languages.

There is no good argument against that. Why wait for C or C++ to try and implement get another weird “solution” for those problems? (That no one uses then anyway)

Doesn’t look like it, but you can be the one writing one.

Why do people still host their stuff on github if they know its illegal?

How would you play a DRM-free game bought through steam without steam? (Genuine question)

Yes and if you bend them out of the way, some become sharp and I poured a carton of milk. So no, I to not like them.

To each their own except I have no (real) choice.

I have cut my lips twice on these fuckers. Also just this week while pouring milk, the cap somehow slipped right under the stream and spilled the milk everywhere.

Who loses their bottlecap?

Also this makes it harder for kids to drink from bottles, since they can’t put their whole mouth around.

I hate these shit stains with a passion.

I am 99% sure, thia was all just a PR stunt by some bottle company. If they really wanted to do something for the environment, they would go for glass bottles again, since they can be recycled forever.

Mullvad is the most private a VPN company can get. They literally accept cash by mail.

Mullvad is RAM only for a few months by now, no log since forever and regularly contributes to privacy related topics.

The thing is: you can’t trust a company when they say they are no log or RAM only. But you can trust what info you give them. Mullvad only has my IPs. No info about who I am otherwise. I send them 30€ twice a year and that’s it.

BUT: they don’t allow port forwarding anymore, if you need that, so they are not perfect.

First off, cause you are programming under windows, a lot of things will be harder for you. As seen on your problems with Python.
Most Linux installs have it right from the get-go and everything else is as simple. So giving directions for developers on other platforms might be much easier than what you had to go through. (Maybe use WSL?)

Let’s get to your real question: How does one organize dependencies in a way easy for new contributors?
Since you will use Python, I will use that as example.

Most languages have a way to automagically import dependencies. Python has the requirements.txt file. Installing dependencies is then really easy. It is also a widely known way to do that, has lots of explanation online etc. so seasoned pythoneers will know what to do and younglings will get to know a good standard right away.

Bonus tip: If you don’t have a GUI library yet, maybe also search for game engines. They provide all the necessary tools as well, oftentimes have good GUI add-ins and are (mostly) for all mayor platforms.

You are right in that it isn’t (or shouldn’t be) part of the parsing, but the program has to check the blacklist even if it’s in a database.

Well chrome should, yes. But they don’t.
Then some JavaScript framework developers think “well this non-standard feature is neat, let’s use that everywhere” and then companies who use their framework (or a framwork dependent on it) can’t support all browsers.

It’s a multilayered problem (as always) with lots of individually decisions that make sense, but don’t work out in the end (as always).

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

1. Embrace:

They implement ActivityPub and connect to all the available servers. A load of new users will see the content here and all the communities here will be absolutely flooded with new content and users.

2. Extend:

ActivityPub will be extended. Many new features will be added, that don’t really match the standard, but they are mostly useful so some developers will try to add them to let’s say Lemmy. They won’t be blr to develop new features on their own and some stuff with threads will always be broken or half baked. Threads users will belittle the users here, some will maybe go there, cause it just works and is otherwise the same.
New users at the same time will most likely go directly to threads cause it’s backed by a giant company, always works and has more features.

3. Extinguish:

They will cut the federation.
Communities here will feel empty and most users will just leave. Only the hard core will stay and that won’t be sustainable. The fediverse becomes even less attractive for new users and will devolve into a niche community.

What’s your working environment like?
We’ve recently moved to a more “hip” location. We used to have personal desks, but now we have this “pick whatever spot is avaiable” open area. I dislike it a lot.

Lol. Same.

Nice “interview” with funny insights. As former ABAP-programmer (SAP systems) I see lots of familiarities.

Same 😂

Q: Why didn’t you write this in $NEW_LANGUAGE instead of crufty C++? A: I probably should have! $NEW_LANGUAGE is deservedly attracting a lot of attention for its combination of safety, readable syntax, and support for modern programming paradigms. I’ve been trying out $NEW_LANGUAGE and want to write more code in it. But for this I chose C++ because it’s supported on all platforms, lots of people know how to use it, and it still supports high-level abstractions (unlike C.)

Lol

What is your comment supposed to mean?

I can’t speak for the country but those people were awesome!

If they were assholes, would you just bomb their country? Wtf?

A rental car from Sony?

Are you in the wrong thread? (I mean I responded to you but still…)

Yeah, but renting is not purchasing.

(Yes, I am fun at parties.)
