  • Still learning, they just covered compiler flags in cs. They didn’t go into detail yet though.

    Edit: I’ve used python for years and they have something equally dumb. You can have a function in a massive application that is broken and the moment it’s called, the application crashes.

    At any other point the application will just run as if nothing is wrong even though python evaluates everything at runtime. I’m sure they can’t do much because the initial launch would be slow.













  • My computers are pretty new. It’s the small things that really eat at you though.

    Glad I switched even with the teething pains with Nvidia and wayland. I can always fallback on x11 until the bug is squashed. Always new little problems popping up like Nvidia isn’t really tested well on the Wayland side.



  • I don’t know much about the guy, I don’t even watch him. I was making an observation based on what other people’s comments said. I’m pretty sure you’re on the nose. Most people in his situation probably would try to bring some good in the world.

    I just like leaving it to the professionals. It’s also important to make sure the community gets a vote on weather that’s the best solution or if other things are more urgent.

    Kinda like how funding went into mosquito nets and instead of using it to protect infants from malaria it was used as a fishing net. In that community putting food in the table was more important. Now there are issues of chemicals being leached into the water by the treated nets and overfishing due to the fine mesh.
