I think anything involving PDF generation is cursed because PDF is a cursed format. And if I remember correctly, error messages for LaTeX tend to be shitty. But I don’t think anyone can dispute it’s the standard for a reason.

Rhizomes stay winning

Put Netanyahu, Assad, Erdogan, Khamenei and their cabinets and top people from Hezbollah in Hague then we can talk.

So what you’re saying is Assad must go?

Now if he could start making cuts to the military…

Thoughts on their protocol vs ActivityPub? ActivityPub seems to have inherent issues with scaling and authentication whereas Bluesky’s at:// protocol seems pretty robust at first glance.

The dude who admitted on national tv to never washing his hands? Lmao

Reading through the specifics of what the guy’s said and done, clearly a good move

Children throwing a tantrum because their team lost. Same libs who are always on about “I don’t know how to teach you empathy”

If not every state is fascist, then the conditions for fascism must be more specific than the presence of a state

Thank god

In the way that’s common in languages like Java where you’re making a property read-only, yes. But there’s a whole protocol in Python called descriptors where you can override the . on a field. The most common form of these is class methods annotated with the @property annotation, which makes it so the method can be accessed as if it were a property.

Yeah. I can understand the use case when it’s something relating to keeping simple state in sync by replacing it with derived state. But this particular case was flushing a cache after each get, which made each get of the property non-deterministic based on the class’s state.

I helped a friend debug a script last week that was working inconsistently in really weird ways. I looked at the script and it was all event hooks littered with sleep calls. I told him he was basically fuzz testing his own script and then getting surprised when he found race conditions. Shit was wild. Also, sometimes getters in Python are a mistake.

The US’s currently level of military aid is unsustainable, even for the most wealthy empire in history. Domestic production has been showing signs of not being able to keep up for a while now.

This got downvoted both in r/SocialistMemes and even in r/StupidpolEurope. The video itself is clearly rage bait.

colden the relations with Israel

I thought this was a forum for Linux discussion, not promotion of fascists

Turns out everything is political
