So much Python criticism comes from people who don’t know the language.

wewbull@feddit.ukto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Why do some programmers love emacs so muchEnglish0·7 months agoIt’s a text editor you customise by programming it. Why do you think that’s appealing?
A lot do. They call them “rationals”.
Neural net evaluation mainly, but FP16 is used in graphics too.
wewbull@feddit.ukto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•When I'm attempting to get updates from the upstream, but the git server is downEnglish0·11 months agoMy comment is more about how we have this decentralised tool, but we’re unable to get our collective heads out of the centralised model. We e ended up turning it back into centralised VCS.
wewbull@feddit.ukto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•When I'm attempting to get updates from the upstream, but the git server is downEnglish0·11 months agoAh… Git.
The decentralised version control system.
Computer programming, regardless of language, is hard. The computer does exactly what you tell it to.
wewbull@feddit.ukto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Which one are you reaching for today?English0·1 year agoIs that an armadillo? Forgetting how my own code works is my forte.
wewbull@feddit.ukto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Forgejo is now copyleft, just like GitEnglish30·1 year agoI have a lot of respect for this project. I lurk on the discussion forum and issues and I’ve always seen mature discussion even though the project was born out of issues which could have been quite emotive.
It’s also a lot nicer to run than any other git forge that I’ve had experience with.
The most difficult part is to keep track of the big picture because it is so verbose. Otherwise it’s a handful or two of instructions you use 90+% of the time.
It’s a long time since I wrote any assembly in anger, but I don’t remember this being an issue. Back then Id be writing 2D and 3D graphics demos. Reasonably complex things, but the challenge was always getting it fast enought to keep the frame rate up, not code structure.
As you say, I think you just establish patterns to decompose the problem.
Only the most very basic compilers. C compilers are in C mainly.
Lucky it was set in America.
wewbull@feddit.ukto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Gender bias in open source: Pull request acceptance of women versus menEnglish18·1 year ago…or the research is flawed. Gender identity was gained from social media accounts. So maybe it’s a general bias against social media users (half joking).
wewbull@feddit.ukto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I just won an auction for 25 computers. What should I setup on them?English2·1 year ago- Slurm cluster
- MPI development
Totally understandable choice.
Death by wasps
It’s a few hundred lines of C across 7-8 files. It checks the password hash against a set of predefined ones and then calls a script if it matches.
It doesn’t need a lot of maintaining.
