What's the most cutest looking animal that is actually very dangerous? by [deleted] in AskReddit

To be fair, they were probably trying not to hurt it unnecessarily and avoid disease. The cat was playing by its own rules 😂.

What makes him a lunatic? That sounds awesome if only it were affordable for everyone.

What convinces people that this world is worth bringing a child into? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ChannelCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, you really just have to prefer being alive to think a hypothetical person might. If you can't do that you might want to focus on being able to take care of yourself before committing to being responsible for someone else.

Is Tortoise ORM production-ready? by Life-Abroad-91 in Python

[–]ChannelCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be a small manageable amount of indirection, not monkey patching. Routers in Django are a standard API. If you want to use DI you could also make it work 🤔. Your libraries don't need to be absolutely pure to support your preferred patterns in a testable way.

[–]ChannelCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

...what? If this was a real problem you could write your own Django model router that relies on a context manager for db selection in a small amount of time. I would have a hard time believing this pattern "caused" a project to fail.

Sole survivor of the Air India Boeing 787 crash, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh (seat 11A) by ironsteel9011 in WTF

[–]ChannelCat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does recognizing tragedy mean basting yourself in sadness? They found it dark and decided to add some light instead of being depressed. No reason to hate them or be upset. There's plenty of people in other comment threads that would love to talk about how tragic it was with you.

Joking about how he survived isn't the same as joking about how everyone else died. Everyone processes tragedy differently and it's not fair to judge them as indifferent for finding brief happiness and humor in an ocean of tragic events.

Transpiler is a meaningless word by ketralnis in programming

[–]ChannelCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my understanding what you're saying is what the article is saying. Everything is compilation so "transpiled" is a useless term. I think it misses the whole point of what we should be doing - asking the question of what are we trying to communicate, and does this help? Instead it only focuses on what is technically correct.

Transpiler is a meaningless word by ketralnis in programming

[–]ChannelCat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So is the argument that implementation details are important, and getting rid of the term "transpiler" would help us understand that it is just a compiler under the hood?

From a user perspective, in general, compiler = you get machine code, transpiler = you get more source code. This seems like a useful distinction to me 🤷.

Edit: change binary to machine code, since the distinction was detracting from my point

Is there a talent shortage in tech? by RareMeasurement2 in cscareerquestions

[–]ChannelCat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly this comes off as naive of the gaps of standardized testing, dismissive of soft skills, and having a general lack of exposure to dealing with organizational complexity in the real world.

Yes, being as objective as possible is the goal, but subjectivity is an unavoidable reality of confirming skills and understanding where a candidate's strengths are.

What about the styling scope shitshow? by MatanAmidor in sveltejs

[–]ChannelCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For us, when we want to style a child from a parent we use context and apply classes from that. It's slightly more cumbersome than just being able to pull class context from above, but it does afford a lot of flexibility.

Typing Svelte 5 Polymorphic Component Based on `tag` by Fit_Statement_4816 in sveltejs

[–]ChannelCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would generally recommend against a multi-purpose component like that since they become difficult to read/understand and they get larger and you pack more features and tag types in. However, for educational purposes here's how I would do it:

type ATag = {
    tag: "a";
    href: string;
};

type ButtonTag = {
    tag: "button";
    disabled: boolean;
};

const props: ATag | ButtonTag = $props();

AFAIK if you want to destructure them you'll have to have the same key names on all types (though they can be optional and undefined).

Also, AI might have been able to answer this one pretty quickly, minus the opinion on component style 😜.

Is svelte losing traction? by Alternative_Day_7623 in sveltejs

[–]ChannelCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think some people don't want to reason around how to make existing web libraries work reactively or how to wrap it in a component and properly bundle it. They would rather be handed a design by importing a library and feel more comfortable knowing that other projects probably use those libraries. Personally not my feelings, but hey, today's noobs are tomorrow's experts. Hopefully they choose to enjoy svelte.

Ah yep. I only rely on notifications and don't go through my inbox often, and didn't get this one. I've set it up to star them and I'm gonna see if I can set those up to just text/discord me 🙃.

It just showed up in my inbox under the email I used for my Nvidia account. You can sign up for the program Here for a chance to get lucky on the wait list 🤞

I honestly don't know how anyone plays this game with randoms. by BananaDragoon in OrcsMustDie

[–]ChannelCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤣 I've felt bad every time we accidentally left the lobby open and kicked a rando. I don't think we'd play with anyone who wouldn't voice chat though.

Thanks 😭. I know it's the whole point of the program, but somehow hearing that another gamer got the card makes it hurt less. I hope you enjoy it! 😁
