It’s such a beautiful place, but it’s cursed with such ugly and incompetent politics. I’m hoping the maps get redrawn here so we can get some less shitty people in power.

My state always makes the news for the most fucked up shit.

Oh, I use vim, I don’t run an OS that can run Notepad++ natively. I meant using HEREDOCs as the responding anon suggested. I’ve absolutely done that on systems that lack a text editor.

It’s like this meme was made for me. GET OUT OF MY HEAD, ANON.

Reolink seems pretty good.

Using ohmyzsh and not antidote? Blocked /s

Say it with me, folks!

I live in Utah and was in a crowd of thousands this summer screaming the above.

It was obvious and I was being a bit of a dummy this morning. Mea culpa.

If you want a free and massive performance optimization, remove the cat:

fastWikiLookup() { grep "$@" ~/wikipedia.txt }

Reading and piping 156 GB of data to another process every time you want to look something up is a somewhat nontrivial action. Grep can directly read the file, which should result in a pretty damn good speed up.

My girlfriend and I have spent many fun hours playing Lethal Company. It’s a real blast with an insanely high skill ceiling if that’s your thing.

It’s getting encoded. % is a special character in URIs. Let me try posting it inside of back ticks, as well as triple back ticks:

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

I’ve noticed that there’s a plague of threadiverse clients which improperly escape/encode URIs. It’s most evident with how they mangle parenthesis in Wikipedia article titles.

The Utah state government is especially incompetent when matters get overly political, so I give this a nonzero chance of succeeding.

Sheesh, it’s 5 GB with pnpm. Isn’t that meant to deduplicate dependencies?

Anywho, it looks like --prod isn’t being set in the Dockerfile, so dev dependencies are being included. I’m no node dev, but I remember this being something that people needed to set to shrink node_modules with npm. That might be an easy win.

Yeah, plus it has type hints and tooling to make said type hints mandatory.

Also, like, fuck golang, it’s such a shit language and the compiler does very little to protect you. I’d say that mypy does a better job of giving you AOT protection.

I seem to recall hearing speculation that the person behind this had their AUR packages deleted because they were posting malware. I’ve only heard this second-hand so it could be complete bullshit, but it seems plausible given some of the fucking adult babies we have out in the world.

After reading the linked page, it appears that at least some of the security issues are addressed:

Applications will be isolated from each other by default and can only interact with other applications either through a GUI prompt asking for permission, such as with screen recorders, where it will only be allowed to record the window specified or by explicitly giving the application permission before launched (such as a window manager or external compositor).

I’ll probably continue to push forward with Wayland, but I suppose I’m pleased that someone is taking a crack at trying to improve X11. The author also mentions potentially using this as a lightweight and safe replacement for xwayland.

Childhood trauma is horrible, I’m sorry ): you deserved a safe home, and it’s tragic you felt so scared that you had to call the cops.

It annoys me when people don’t at least try to explain the advantages of language features. Like, there are some real advantages to writing “pythonic” Python, but if someone doesn’t know then it’s better to tell them why this other way rocks and is fucking cool and also happens to be considered best practice.

Also, sometimes you just have to do things in a non-pythonic way. PEP 8 literally says that a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, which the pythonic nuts should hold as gospel.

idk who downvoted you, it’s a very common sentiment. I advocate for <<<, but a pipe is often fine when performance doesn’t matter.

Idk, writing POSIX-compliant shell is so miserable that I avoid doing it when I can. You can use Bash on BSD and all other unixes, so it’s still a relatively portable solution.
