CAN YOU DIG IT?!

Not to me, polymath is simply many disciplines, the teacher is irrelevant.
-
Add it as a shell function or alias to your .bashrc (or whatever shell you use), that way it's project independent! ^_^
-
Have an internet cookie, I've not heard this one before!
-
No fair, you changed the outcome by observing it!
-
Who even cares? IQ is more or less meaningless anyway...
-
Define "better"?
-
Riiiight, that's the weird thing about this situation...
-
That sounds... Utterly awful.
-
Just want to echo what's already been said: get enough sleep. Chronic sleep deprivation is one of the worst things you can do to yourself short of some sort of wasting addiction like smoking. It causes poor mental and physical health and makes you unable to get anything real done when you're awake.
Get. Enough. Sleep. -
What are you looking for from a JSON file? I work with both python and JSON every day, and I really don't have any issues with it...
-
Man, for something that people claim is utterly irrelevant and has no effect on anything in the real world, there are some awful strong opinions flying about...
-
@hasu 100% agreed. This post reeks of a lack of boundaries, and desperation.
-
@kosimst ah, fair enough, must have been mistaken, as you were! xD
-
Doesn't chromium generally lag behind Chrome? I thought they open sourced things later on...
-
College is worthwhile. College as private enterprise is utterly fucked.

> legal requirement
> Calls it a meme
... Right.
It is bad practice that the site either isn't it can't be GDPR compliant, but 'meme'? For real? -
Sublime or VSCode with suitable plug ins will serve you well, young padawan.
-
Yeah, people really don't realise how much they're missing if you quote numbers like 99% to them, it just sounds good at first.
-
This is what we might call a "learning experience" :-P
-
@Irithyll I'm give just come out and say this: if you don't have a good head for logic, you will not be a good programmer.
99% of people can learn the thought process, but if you haven't learned how to think things through logically, you will be a bad programmer. -
World championships?
-
I would have though giving birth would be more like a fork of the mother and/or father? xD
-
Impossible question without more information. The first question would always be "What is the aim of the software?" After that there may be other questions, but they are all context-specific.
-
So tell me, why is this such a big deal?
-
@Fast-Nop agreed, comments should explain non-obvious decisions and reasoning. Over commenting is just noise and a waste of everyone's time. If your code needs an explanation you'd better have a damn good reason for making it weird.
-
I know it's difficult but if you're overloaded you really need to learn to push back on getting more added. You can't keep all those promises and keep a healthy balance in your life!
-
Experiences like this teach you very important lessons
1 - Documentation goes stale. Code/behaviour never lies.
2 - Never trust anything you didn't write yourself. Even then take it with a pinch of salt.
I've had similar experiences, and they are why I always take documentation as an indication of what a thing might do, rather than gospel truth xD. For REST APIs, always test behaviour with postman or similar before implementing! -
@c3ypt1c Infowars politics causes its followers to harass Sandy Hook families to the extent of not being able to visit the graves of their family members who died there because of Alex Jones's fucking insane beliefs. Frankly I don't care if those kinds of politics are suppressed, because they are not good faith politics, the whole site is an odious monument to unsupported view points and misrepresented science.
This isn't about opposing opinions, this is removing a set of people who use their position to lie to people who don't know better to shill whatever they're trying to sell. -
@platypus the difference in the gender/ethnicity examples is that those aren't opinions, that's not something that anything short of major surgery can change. That's what makes this discrimination rather than what happened to Infowars. The examples you give aren't comparable. A comparable example would be to ban a gay person who said "kill so the straights", it's then the opinion that's the reason for the ban, and no longer discrimination.
