> without any external dependencies (i.e. no Redis/RabbitMQ) You still depend on a database with the `Task` model. This would be a no-go for that reason, since there's no reasonabl…

I won't comment on whether it's a solved problem in general, as I don't actively follow the area very closely, but that particular QRNG has been shown to be more biased than /dev/u…

Well, just letting it expire would certainly halt local development at until renewing. The primary reason for this is that some integrations require TLS for callbacks, so we have a…

That would be my exact use-case for a service like this: monitoring a domain I have pointing at localhost (and not only for expiry, but also for revocation). At least currently the…

Well, to be fair, the `len` operation on lists in Python is a constant time operation. What makes the example particularly bad is using a cast on the result of a floating-point div…

I'm not familiar with the software in question, but I'm quite sure it'd still be possible to have someone else to sit your exam. For instance, you could have an external webcam poi…

Here's a (perhaps "unnecessarily clever") Python 3 version I wrote a while back, for some reason: import functools def fizzbuzz(n): if not n % 3: yield (r := "fizz") if not n % 5: …

I can see this happening, but with a reasonable bug-tracking solution in place and enforcing `fix/...` branches for fixes, these situations could mostly be avoided.

Hm, you're right. The simplest example I could think of right now is the upstream having renamed/deleted something that the dev branch depends on, but didn't directly touch. That w…

In some cases I agree, but squashes can end up so large that doing a `git bisect` (which is quite useful in finding the comparatively small commit which introduced a bug) becomes u…

When you rebase, you basically replay the history of your branch since it diverged from the branch you're rebasing onto. Thus, the branch is always in a consistent state (or equall…

There shouldn't be an issue in doing so. During a rebase you'll either have no conflicts — in which case there isn't an issue — or you'll have to stop to resolve conflicts, and you…

In Swift 3 (and probably previous versions as well), `String.count` defaulted to the count of the Unicode scalar representation. In this version, iterating over a string would oper…

I had a similar thought: git init -q && git commit -q --allow-empty -m "Hello, World\!" && git show --format=%B | head -1
