“I need a computer that jUsT wOrKs”

Python is great, but stuff like this just drives me up the wall (lemmy.world)

Explanation: Python is a programming language. Numpy is a library for python that makes it possible to run large computations much faster than in native python. In order to make that possible, it needs to keep its own set of data types that are different from python’s native datatypes, which means you now have two different...

I/O Issues are problems that come with the territory for scripting languages like python. Its why I prefer to use bash for scripting instead, because in bash, all I/O are strings. And if there are ever any conflicts, well that’s what awk/sed/Perl are for.

HStone32,

This principle applies to the GNU C compiler also. Any other compiler is going to complain at you for not adhering to their stupid style guide, or for not using their proprietary “mEmOrY sAfE” libraries. But if GCC is giving you warnings, you darn well better fix something.

HStone32,

Pretty sure post market is actually based on manjaro.

HStone32,

I’ve been patiently waiting for advancements in true Linux phones for years. I feel like a hypocrite when using android. Anyone know if pinephone is nearing a new release?

HStone32,

Consider how dead-easy it is to write a bash script or c program in Linux, and then enable it (have it run on boot) using SystemD daemons. A total noob could do it after reading a 5 minute tutorial.

Is it even possible to do the same on an android phone? I have no idea, but willing to bet not.

HStone32,

Well hey, at least it “just works,” right?

HStone32,

I don’t get what’s so wrong with man. If the creator neglected to add a -h option, then there’s at least a chance somebody made a man page.

HStone32,

I was taught coding using IDEs. After I discovered that they aren’t even necessary for debuging and compiling, I said “What’s the point?” And I’ve just been using text editors ever since.

HStone32,

Having a similar moment right now. I’m trying to figure out how to compute the transformation matrix for reflecting a bitmap of any given dimension across the y axis, but all the tutorials that come up in my search just tell me to import some python library. Its like nobody wants to learn how to do anything anymore.

HStone32,

Huh. All that security, and yet there are still so many viruses capable of infecting windows.

HStone32,

I would totally daily drive a Linux phone if performance wasn’t so awful. I don’t care if it doesn’t a have any apps. In fact, the inability to install apple or android apps is actually a positive point in my view.

HStone32,

Nobody is actively team windows, but they immediately become team windows as soon as you suggest they try Linux.

HStone32,

How do you reverse the bit-stream scalar using the systemd fractional scaling initializer?

HStone32,

I know I’m a fanboy, but I fell in love with C from the first time I tried it. I especially like its bare-bones grammar that never gets in your way. I appreciate how much it has taught me about how computers work. It helped me realize my aspirations to be an electrical engineer.

HStone32,

Stuff like this is the reason Linus decided to take a sabbatical back in 2018 to work on controlling his temper.

HStone32,

The black guy turned into a testificate in the 2nd panel

HStone32,

Nor can we host our projects on gittea, or run windows apps in WINE

HStone32,

Smart animal. None of the things that can reach the top of that tree can threaten the fox.

HStone32,

Ehh, I’m not sure. In my experience, apple users are too tech illiterate to have any opinions on windows, not even incorrect ones.

HStone32,

I don’t want to give the impression of being elitist, nor am I trying to make myself look super skilled, but whenever I hear people criticizing C for being unsafe, or for lacking some library, I can’t help but think that’s a skill issue, not an actual problem with the language.

HStone32,

How is money an issue? I can run down to the contracted office-supply refurbisher 2 miles away, buy a 2-year old lenovo mini PC for $160, and slap Debian on it for no additional licence fee.

HStone32,

I firmly believe AI will replace managers before it replaces engineers.
