Weird, they used the latest version of C++ at my university. Had to use Assembly and C in embedded though.

I don’t want to get into an Internet argument over pedantry. Linter is often used as a catch-all term for static analysis tools.

Wikipedia defines it as

Lint is the computer science term for a static code analysis tool used to flag programming errors, bugs, stylistic errors and suspicious constructs.

Catching type errors and attribute errors would fit under this description, if you use a different, more precise definition at your workplace, cool, then we just have different definitions for it. The point is that your IDE should automatically detect the errors regardless of what you call it.

OP suggested that linters for python won’t catch attribute errors, which they 100% will if you use type hints, as you should.

What happens at runtime is really relevant in this case.

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, x: int):
        self.whatever: int = x

def foo(x: MyClass) -> int:
    return x.whatevr

Any decent IDE would give you an error for unresolved attribute. Likewise it would warn you of type error if the type of x.whatever didn’t match the return type of foo()

The sea should be marked as C considering that’s what you’ll discover when you get deep into it.

The author pointed out how exceptions are often faster than checking every value. If your functions throws an error often enough that Exception handling noticeably slow down your program, surely you got to take a second look at what you’re doing.

They both have their place. I just recently discovered a bug in lemmy bot I wrote where the lemmy API module will raise an Exception if login fails (response status code != 200), which feels extremely out of place, as the error/status code do matter in that case.

Other times exceptions make more sense as Phillip pointed out. It’s easier faster to ask for forgiveness than permission after all.

It’s a genuine concern though. If you want one centralised server hosting all the content, just use reddit.

• The format works for both lossy and lossless compression, depending on the use case and need. Photographs can be encoded in a lossy way much more efficiently than JPEG and things like screenshots can be losslessly encoded more efficiently than PNG.

Someone made a fair point that having a format being both lossy and lossless is not necessarily a great idea. If you download a jpeg file you know it will be compressed, if you download png it will be lossless. Shifting through jxl files to check if it’s lossy or not doesn’t sound very fun.

All in all I’m a big supporter of jxl though, it’s one of the only github repos I actively follow.

but I don’t like the indentation crap

Do you not use indentation in other languages?

Kislev.

But now you’re cherry picking food. Fish and chicken is good and healthy food, why didn’t you mention those instead. Pure sugar is both vegan and gluten free, but you wouldn’t call that healthy would you?

There is nothing unhealthy about gluten if your body can tolerate it. So vegan, gluten free and the opposite are all perfectly valid options for a healthy diet. You could also have an unhealthy diet within those 3 categories as well.

Neither vegan nor gluten free food is “healthier” than other food. It’s a question of scale and target demographic.

Nowadays most websites leaves half of your horizontal space empty on high resolution monitors, so you have a lot of unused real estate. Verticals tabs can also fit in more tabs while showing tab title and can implement features like collapsible tabs.

This exaggeration gets tiresome, there are some great uses for LLM. The copilot autocomplete got to be one of the greatest QoL functions in a modern IDE.

It also generally work great for tech support, and lowers the skill requirement for installing and maintaining a Linux distro. Nowadays I will usually just redirect tech support questions from family members to an LLM.

Just because it won’t solve cancer in 10 years like the tech bros preach doesn’t mean the tech is without uses.

Try changing to desktop mode, worked for me.

3, about two lines per contributor

The only two people arguing against the change were both authors/contributors of is-number lol

Heard from someone else (so take it with a grain of salt) that CrowdStrike and/or similar companies threatened Microsoft with an antitrust suit when Microsoft tried to force them to use an API instead of working directly with the kernel.
