I was in the hospital last month and the screen lock on the computer cart that they use to access your records and record information was showing advertisements.

It wasn’t even medical related. It was for a fast food chain.

I am certainly not one of the younger folks and had never seen that before. That is awesome, thank you for sharing.

Good news. After reading the article, it seems like the content and the course will still exist, it is just that Yale has decided that it cant afford to pay ULA’s to support the class.

For those who just want to learn, the course content can still be found here: https://www.edx.org/cs50

Yep, I love it. I told my wife about it and she thinks I’m crazy.

Right, I agree with you there. I guess I should invert my question. If you’re tipping the driver, what is the delivery fee for?

These two costs seem redundant.

If you are paying separately for the delivery, what is the tip for?

Yeah, I wish I knew this about a year ago. Thanks.

Maybe they just typed it out how they would say it?

Also, doesn’t the jetbrains license let you continue to use the version that was the latest as of when your license ended. It’s a small difference, but also kinda huge.

I use youtrack. It’s a project management tool. It’s not open source, but does have a self hostable option.

I think it needs to be 5 or 8 so it’s a number from the Fibonacci scale.

It is also important that there is no possible way that a story point can meaningfuly represent time.

I know you asked about memory, but the computer I just assembled had a 750watt power supply. As an American I think we should refer to it as a “one horsepower power supply” instead.

I feel like most of my googling of simple code is because I know what I’m trying to do, but I don’t remember the correct function name and or language structure for the language I’m currently using.

Clearly this is what we call “self documenting code”.

I usually say “I’m a computer toucher” or “computer programmer” if I don’t want to talk about what I do. If I want to flex some nerd cred, and/or boast a little, I’ll usually say “I work with machine automation” or “robotics”. It tends to get a more curious response and I can talk about some of the weird stuff I’ve helped make.

On my current team, when we were trying to choose a style, my only input was “any style that can be checked/applied with a git commit hook.”

I get some people prefer reading code in a particular format. Let them configure their editor to apply it, but let’s keep the version history in one unavoidably consistent style. Pretty please.

It’s not exactly what I think you’re looking for, but depending on what you are trying to do, maybe look at hackmd/codimd.

It’s more like Google docs meets markdown formatting. It’s goal is realtime collaboration but I’ve definitely used it for syncing todo lists with people.

Codimd is the self hostable version.

Oh, and I think there is a way to have it sync with a GitHub repo too, in case that is useful.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure some compiler settings can change this. I have a fuzzy memory of a bug that went away when compiled with debug flags enabled and the difference was that unassigned variables were being zeroed vs not zeroed.

This reminds me of an article I read about a guy whose last name was Null.

This isn’t it but is the first one I found when looking.

The story is pretty much what you would expect but still an amusing read.

Since my last comment, I learned that my local library has a few machines and a serger that you can reserve time on. I think that is going to be how I avoid buying my own for a while, and possibly a social setting I may learn from others.
