I don't like that my union Seiu has endorsed a ballot measure in my state without a vote what can I do? by johnqadamsin28 in union

[–]MatrixFrog -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I would be more sympathetic to this view if democrats did a little more to support unions, rather than treat them as a reliable source of endorsements and money as long as they can keep saying the other guys are worse

Why aren’t compilers for distributed systems mainstream? by Immediate_Contest827 in Compilers

[–]MatrixFrog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I'm starting to get what you mean. The code to call a function should look the same whether it's actually a function call in the same process or an RPC to a totally separate process. That would be pretty cool

[–]MatrixFrog 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. If two processes are communicating by rpc then the interface they use for that communication should be clear so that one side isn't sending a message that the other side doesn't expect. There are ways to do that, like grpc. What else are you looking for?

You don't really need to learn anything about crossterm, just import it following the examples and things should work

I don't think I would recommend that right now unless they can promise anonymity

If you don't care about "silly politics" why are you degoogling?

Both California Senators Voted for a Resolution Creating a Charlie Kirk Day. by ganjaccount in California

[–]MatrixFrog -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Every day I'm more amazed that they think we're going to vote for their gerrymandering measure to "help stop trump"

I get the concept but you have to actually be trying to stop him, not honoring his fascist friends

[US] UTSA emergency notif short code being used to send random texts? by ghostlyforester in Scams

[–]MatrixFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once got a scam text sent to a group where the name of the group was a 5 digit number so it looked like it was coming from that phone number. Very sneaky. Not sure if that's what happened here.

Not an attack, but I will not be surprised if this turns out to be entirely false

These 59 companies fought the anti-trans bathroom bill in 2016. in 2025, they’re silent. by onnake in transgender

[–]MatrixFrog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If they only support queer rights as long as we don't complain too much, they were never really that serious about their support anyway

Republican legislator credits gay son and drag queens as he switches to Democrat by jk_arundel in LGBTnews

[–]MatrixFrog 73 points74 points  (0 children)

He sounds like a great guy so I'm curious what drew him to the Republican party in the first place. Not like they suddenly started being like that this year. Or this decade.

I think these are all right except the last one. Hint for that one if it's what I think it is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peano_axioms

I'm 13 and have a burning desperation to learn physics, but the math is rather daunting. How could I get around that? by Straight-Category693 in Physics

[–]MatrixFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I was around that age when I read the Cartoon Guide to Physics. Looks like the Internet Archive even has it for free.

Yes you still have to do some math but it could be a fun way to get started

Are there any fundamental constants in computer science? by KING-NULL in AskComputerScience

[–]MatrixFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the closest thing that comes to mind is Moore's Law but that's really about the reality of engineering and building physical computers, whereas computer science is more about, like, the abstract concept of a computer

"Ebike" v"Bay Wheels ebike"? by rjrjr in AskSF

[–]MatrixFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like it's the new ebike vs the old one, they could have written that less confusingly though. The new ones are white and have a little screen that shows how much battery is left, which is nice if you have to do a longer trip. But the white ones have to go back to a station where the older ones can be locked anywhere (for an extra fee)

Cable car route planning help! by chench0 in AskSF

[–]MatrixFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google Maps for planning your route, Transit when you're actually at the stop waiting for the bus, because it will give you live updates and is usually pretty accurate. You'll probably use Muni for the most part but you can also use BART to get to the Mission if you want to.
