Dreamt that Adidas's first product was a tractor called the Adidas Robust Muscle and that they still sold them in Europe. I'm my dream, I saw one in a museum. Adidas got into the footwear business after designing a shoe for farmers.

The least enjoyable part of coding is getting the IDE setup, the folders named, the correct libraries installed and trimmed down so they have what you think you will need.

If the language is java then the least enjoyable part is deciding if you want to store a number as a float or an int (formatted if you need decimals) ... then always changing your mind and having to go through and fix the numbers so they work.

I know python is lazy, but strict typing still feels like a drag to me.

@futurebird @phryk reminds me of some Python code that has flummoxed the C++ devs I was working with at the time.
“It doesn’t round consistently! Sometimes it goes up and other times it rounds down [on .5]”
Me: “so, statistical rounding? It does that to prevent systematically biasing your data away from zero. Use this other round function instead of the one built for stats and data.”

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@phryk integers and fixed point are faster generally and some hardware lacks native support for floating point types — yes, even now. Some ARM chips have a full barrel-shifter letting you bitshift (divide or multiply by a power of two) for free at the end of another operation, but only for integer types.

Trying to git clone in the terminal and github asks for my username and password and then tells me support for password authentication was removed in 2021. What the hell man

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@wez @MLE_online you can clone public repos over HTTPS without any auth still, if you’re getting prompted for credentials on a public repo you probably have a typo.
This advice doesn’t apply to your case where you authenticated successfully though.

I just noticed that after I take a picture with my Samsung android phone, it automatically edits/adjusts it - most noticeably the lighting, but probably other elements as well. I can't figure out how to turn this "feature" off. Guys I am so tired of technology.

@immersfer @shauna what. Dude compares autofocus and shutter speed adjustments to straight-up just pasting in a picture of the moon or using lots of statistics to modify the image entirely!

Just bought the Middle-Earth Shadow Bundle on Steam. It includes:

  • Middle-Earth: Shadow of War
  • Middle-Earth: Shadow of War Expansion Pass
  • Middle-Earth: Shadow of Modor
  • Middle-Earth: Shadow of Modor GOTY Edition Upgrade

The price of each of these individual items is $112.96. But today, I’m paying C$8.99.

@atomicpoet I have the base games already, and they scratch the third-person brawler itch pretty well despite not being as fluid as the Arkham games. Also the Nemesis system was fairly amusing.

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@j_bertolotti @atomicpoet I liked the added perks or feats that they got, it added a little variety (not that the Nemesis system is unique in doing this). Although over the course of a full play through the taunts get really old (again, pretty typical).

The cat body is either 90 percent butt or basically there is no butt. It's a paradox. Where dose the butt end and the back begin? Some questions go beyond what man was meant to know.

In his new book, Ari Berman explains how the Founding Fathers planted a bomb in the Constitution and Donald Trump lit the fuse.

Long-durational thermal storage is coming.

The world's largest thermal storage project is underway in Finland with a capacity of 90 GWh, enough to meet the heating demands of a medium-sized city for up to a year.

@jago @janrosenow big ass cement water reservoir probably lasts a hell of a lot longer than any battery tech we have today. Industry lead-acid batteries can last a long time, but you have to provide a good bit of care and maintenance sampling and adjusting acid levels.

A while back we started to turn many of the library dependencies of systemd from regular ELF dependencies (which you can explore with tools like lddtree or readelf -d … | grep NEEDED) into dlopen() deps, in order to minimize the dep footprint of systemd. The primary reason for this was to make it easier to build small disk images without optional components, in particular for the purpose of initrds or container deployments. Recently, another reason for doing this came into focus:

Last night my boyfriend showed me a TikTok of a young woman pretending to get upset over someone putting a bunch of colored blocks -- squares, triangles, arches -- all through the same square hole. You've probably seen it.

And he was making a point about social conformity, amongst other things, but I became viscerally upset and was crying on the woman's behalf even knowing she was acting and it was kind of a dumb joke, which I felt a little embarrassed about afterwards.

Dumb RPM question: how do you "namespace" packages so that your package named foobar doesn't conflict with a distribution package named foobar?

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@cadey stick all your files in /opt and prefix your (personal or organization) name on the front.

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@cadey yeah, sorry, prefix your name on the front of the package name. You can add the package to the yum/dnf installonlypkgs list to avoid uninstalling other packages with the same name, but then you’re asking for trouble later on when one of those packages updates.

c0dec0dec0de,
@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

@cadey also, damnit, I’m being that guy and not directly answering your question.
I don’t think you can encode that in the RPM.
