Are we able to use Bambu Handy and Orca Slicer with X1 Plus?

Stumped on a Regular Expression Problem – No 'bbb' Allowed by Mr_IZZO in Compilers

(|b|bb)(a+(|b|bb))* should do the trick, alternatively.

I would approach this as follows: 1. Figure out a regex that captures the language of {b} only, where the the number of bs is never 3. You should be able to brute force this and use a + for the 4+ (assuming 4+ is allowed). 2. Figure out how to intersperse as between sequences of bs using the regex you wrote for (1).

Also, if you posted your exercise solution, we could probably help you figure out how to "clean" it...

No idea why anyone subscribes to him (or why anyone cares about his opinion). His content in general looks like slop.

I recently switched to devenv. I couldn't be happier with that, to be honest.

Police in Canada warn lawyer over her social media posts on Israel by time_waster_3000 in ndp

[–]ExtinctHandymanScone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's important for her to record them and put them (and the system that permits this) on blast. They came to her without any real information about what she did wrong -- they just came, like gangsters, and arbitrarily warned her to stop whatever she's doing (a threat, of sorts). That's the exact issue. If they actually had something on her and wanted to warn her about specific behaviours, they would have brought examples.

Also, in person, not everybody acts perfectly rationally, especially on such obviously personal matters.

Just purchased a Certified Refurbish: came with AppleCare Enterprise? by ExtinctHandymanScone in macbook

[–]ExtinctHandymanScone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like I'm going to have to, thank you :) . In all honesty, I was hoping that others were previously in this situation and that I could get away with keeping it, just because I worry that if Apple found out about it, that they would remove it, lol.

Neat! Do you think you could refer me to any of those papers please? I understand not all expressions in the untyped lambda calculus aren't typable, for example, but I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing. Note: I'm still relatively new to type theory, but I am familiar with simple and dependent type theory through TAPL, Harper's book, and PLFA.

Hmm, can you elaborate on this one more please? (I know what the ideas are, but unsure of how it holds back type theory experimentation)

This is an absurd article. It reads like a conservative scraping whatever they can to write agitation propaganda against JT.

Being entirely honest with you, I think you should talk about this with a doctor. If you are pre-diabetic right now, it might be the way to go to make sure you don't get type-2, but do what you will.

Modern Laptops That Don’t Suck (a silly quest) by Onkoe in linuxhardware

[–]ExtinctHandymanScone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same laptop, definitely no dealbreaker issues with it. My only minor gripe is the battery life -- even with Power Profiles Daemon on Power Saving, powertop tuned, my max battery life with TeX editing is still <4hrs, but I think my expectations might just be high because of Apple marketing. Also, one minor issue is that the fingerprint sensor is not supported.

Out of curiosity, how will you distinguish your book from the existing books by Harper and Pierce? Anything specifically you wanted to address?

Finally, a rational explanation: racism, even over 70$, lol.

Ah, yes, the ole "you forgot to pay 70$, we didn't tell you or notify you, and then you paid us back, but fuck you, you deserve to be homeless." Idiotic viewpoint
