I assume that firing was a bit more selective in who they wanted to keep.

> Actually it was a bit unexpected that it would have known to do that; it must have used its complete IMU data to even know it was rolled, as plain accelerometer would have been p…

It's fine as long as you catch all exceptions, and only produce ones that you document. Your users aren't supposed to know that you used `requests` at all.

Python dlopens binary wheels with RTLD_LOCAL on Linux, and I assume it does the equivalent on Windows. There were issues relatively recently with -ffast-math binary wheels in Pytho…

You can have private and public dependencies. Private dependencies are the ones that don't show up on your interface at all. That is you don't return it, you don't throw it or catc…

The actual video title is "Lorenzetti Electric Shower Head", the HN submission title is edited to include the nickname "suicide shower head". I think the best would be is to just u…

There are two paths: 1. Fork and cherry-pick from upstream, don't accept contributions from outside. They need minimal changes. 2. Fork and maintain their fork independently, try t…

I wonder what the fallout of this will be. If this results in a successful fork of wordpress with a registry independent from Wordpress.org that would be quite ironic.

We also did it in uni, it was very exhausting. And after a full day of measurements noone ever had enough data to see the quantization of the charge of electrons.

It can get minified/optimized by a tool. The "source code" is what you immediately edit, but you might not distribute that version, only a "binary" derived from it.

I use DejaVu Sans Mono for programming, it places a dot inside 0.

Cool! My personal preference is Knuth-style line-breaks on binary operators and pipes, which means breaking before the operator/pipe symbol. foo -a -b \ | bar -c -d -e \ | baz -e -…

At the same time if you suggest "maybe we shouldn't use X, Y and Z analytics then" then you get laughed out of the room. So is there really a choice?

I would appreciate if it didn't send notifications about me having unread notifications. And no, I can't turn this notification off separately.

It's a bit cumbersome, and I think only recently you can make longer dependency chains. It's certainly not automated away with just git commands, but maybe there there is a Gitlab …

It's fine to break commit atomicity on feature branches. You can use git bisect --first-parent on you development/master branch.

Another way to look at this that this is 3 linearly dependent PRs masquerading as one. Make each a distinct PR and the problem goes away, especially if you can mark the PR to depen…

"Commit pending writes" and "discard file handle" should ideally be separate operations, with the former potentially returning errors and the latter being infallible. "Discard file…
