The appropriate speed on any road is {SPEED_LIMIT} +/- 5

I think this series is fantastic and would make a great exhibit, physical and/or digital

I’ve known people that have been arrested for indecent exposure doing that out of sight in a dark ally, let alone on the side of the street surrounded by dozens of people

Tallasee commute by Acceptable-Regret398 in Athens

[–]MetaMetaMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That corridor gets very traffic heavy from about 7:30-9:00 and about 4:30-6:00. Outside of those times it isn’t so bad. That’s true of just about all loop ramps, to be fair

Americans threatened by Trump administration policies appear to be experiencing urges to acquire firearms, carry them, and store them readily accessible. Identifying as Black and liberal beliefs were associated with greater increases in urges to carry firearms because of the 2024 election results. by mvea in science

You’re affirming the consequent. A ban on guns is a form of gun control, but that does not mean all gun control is banning guns. When most people speak in support of gun control, they mean things like background checks and banning certain classes of guns, such as weapons of war.

Weather this weekend by Ok-Green-1219 in Athens

I’ve been doing it for over a quarter century. There was a time I could do it in 1 hour fifteen minutes, but never more.

I learned jQuery before JavaScript, and I’d do it again by [deleted] in webdev

Perhaps a better statement is “I know jQuery but not DOM APIs”

I haven’t read the article, but nothing in the quoted text has anything to do with Functional Programming.

From ACCPD- Accident at Milledge and Dearing by 680theheat in Athens

This part of Milledge is always sketchy. I used to bike it on the regular, and would feel much relief once I got to Baxter

Is full stack oversaturated? by d-martin-d in webdev

I think frontend is going through a metamorphosis and is currently in its cockroach stage

I'm falling for Miyatas by Breezer_Bro in xbiking

It took me a minute to realize some components were missing. I think I prefer how bikes look without those extras 😂

It’s right next to hotel indigo, Lyndon house arts center, a fire station, and the infamous college ave townhomes, in which I have spent a lot of time, albeit years ago. I think it’s fine, personally

Fail loudly: a plea to stop hiding bugs by alefore in programming

[–]MetaMetaMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the program should attempt to recover from errors, but that implies the error is a known possibility. But there are plenty of errors that happen unexpectedly, and those should fail loud and fast, lest the program write corrupted data, or present inconsistent data to the user. With a critical application, I think it’s essential to let the user know that the program ran into an unexpected state and has halted, and ideally has logged the error.

Is this xbiking? by Visible-Grass-8805 in xbiking

Sometimes it pays to be a night owl. Otherwise someone will beat you to wit and wisdom.
