Warcraft 3 had helicopters and tanks, so cars aren’t all that crazy.

Edit: For those interested it’s Van Gogh - The Scream.

Is this some Swedish psyop meant to trigger Norwegians? The Scream was painted by Edvard Munch.

You also didn’t link to the actual painting.

I’ve never been to a house in Norway that didn’t have a dishwasher. Even cabins up in the mountain or old seaside cabins have them installed if they got water access. Where do you live where it isn’t common?

She refused until I guessed… She even had the gall to act insulted when I was wrong

Guessing people’s height also isn’t something I do regularly. Might be why I suck at it.

My height is 192 so 190 vs 185 would be easy to tell, but once you reach ~182 and below it’s all a wash. 180 vs 175 I wouldn’t have a clue. I was off by more than 10cm in my estimation when they were sitting in front of me, and it was a person I knew well.

Unless you’re the same height as me, I’ll never remember how tall you are. I was mentoring some girl for half year and when she asked me to guess her height while she was sitting, I guessed ~170, turns out she was 180+.

Height just isn’t something I register about a person, and I don’t see why anyone would bother trying to remember stuff like that.

Huh, that’s unfortunate. Surprised it affects people that badly.

I don’t understand why so many people care about it. It’s never been a bother other than that one night you lose an hour of sleep.

TIL I write better commit messages in my hobby projects than some Linux maintainers

Sounds like a nothingburger, sovereign wealth funds investment in a diverse set of industries. And especially industries their own economy isn’t big in.

I don’t see PIF here though 🤔

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.

As a Norwegian, that got to be our coolest stat, however I have no idea how it can be true. Even in my engineering bubble there aren’t that many people using Linux. It’s all Windows and macs for home computers.

I thought they dissolved after Chester’s suicide?

• 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.
