I just want a streaming solution of my own media. There are alternatives, but the zero effort required to use it outside my home makes it worthwhile to stick with it.
I don't care about the account aspect (which in part enables the ease of remote access of course). I don't need all kinds of other media added with ads or purchases though.
It will be a very sad day if the system as it works for me today were to shut down.
Data on search engine market share is available, but I wonder what that looks like for Lemmy users in particular, who I would assume lean more technical than the average user, so probably use DuckDuckGo and alternates more than Google....
Bing. No strong reason besides allocating Bing rewards to doctors without borders, and I'm not particularly concerned with any harvesting of data from my searches.
Pngme is a tutorial where besides having a spec and unit tests, there is no real hand holding for figuring out how to implement something except for links to locations in the rust docs that might be useful....
I've never been a breakfast person, and I don't wake up hungry. I used to go a few hours without eating anything and then have a breakfast of two scrambled eggs, 1/2 cup of brown rice, and a sliced avocado with some salt or soy sauce. That's a very tasty and healthy breakfast, but I get hungry again within a couple of hours....
Since you said any language, you have Free Pascal and its gui editor Lazarus.
För wxWidgets and C++ you have wxFormBuilder.
The Glade editor for gtk3 programs (C, C++, or whatever language one might use). (edit: just a gui editor that is used separately from whatever IDE or editor you write your code in)
It was already mentioned by @RHOPKINS13 so I didn't bother.
As for Qt itself, I wasn't thrilled with their path regarding licensing back in the day, like only allowing GPL (not LGPL) on Unix like systems and attempting their own special licenses, and only offering a paid commercial license for Windows development. These days I can't say I find the $300+/month subscription option for commercial usage very appealing either. They can of course do whatever they want, just as I look at what is at my disposal and what's out there and choose according to my needs and preferences (which may be very different from other individuals). Essentially, their decisions early on soured my opinion of Qt (regardless of any technical merits), and since those days I have always had other options that have worked well enough for me. It may also have played a role in my relative lack of interest in KDE,
I'm just expressing my feelings, and it is not a statement whether anyone else should make any specific choices. :)
I was looking over the first kata i did on codewars, and I thought it would be fun to try and solve it in C. The object was to return a string based on a boolean input. it took a lot of trial and error, googling, chat gippity, but I eventually got it to work. I am still focused on learning python, but I've had it in my mind that...
For these kinds of expressions, I really like to use the ternary operator. I find that more readable. An if statement with a condition and two simple possible return values like your code can be written as
return (value == 1) ? "Yes" : "No";
The return keyword is not part of the ternary operator. The definition is "<condition> ? <value if true> : <value if false>".
As the operator is an expression, the result of it can be assigned to a variable of course. But in your code example there is no need for a local variable to hold the result so it can just be returned.
If the expressions for the condition, or true or false results get too complicated I'll switch to if/else for readability (the question mark or the colon might get harder to spot).
I want to preface, if you see a mistake in the image or have something helpful to add, go right ahead! I still have the layered files for this, so edits can be made very quickly. I chose to handwrite the text to avoid font copyright infringement....
Seems like openid/oauth2 could be implemented in servers to allow you to use your login on one system to grant you authorization and authentication on another. Your identity would be the original server and no credential information would be shared, only successfully generated tokens.
Whether it is actually a good idea in a fediverse where posts and comments are already accessible between different systems and instances is another matter I have no insight into.
