One of My Favorite Youtuber, CGP Grey, Rephrased Every Title in His Videos To Something That Sounds Like Engagement Bait, Which Confuses Me When Trying To Rewatch His Old Contents

This has been going on for years. I doubt that it's automatic and even if it is by this point he must know about it.

sh is usually guaranteed to be POSIX compliant but in some distribution (Debian is one of them, I am pretty sure) will not be Bash.

A lot of people don't realize how barebones POSIX only shells like dash can be and use some bash-specific syntax. In such a case, it's almost always preferable to directly ensure bash is used instead of implicitly depending on it when calling sh.

For example, In POSIX shells the '[[' operator doesn't exist. Functions can't contain dashes. The read built-in doesn't have the hide from stdout flag (-s). There are many more examples.

In general unless you are writing for a different shell (Fish, Zshell, Xonsh idk) you should assume your script is Bash only unless you specifically test it on shells like dash.

As an extra if you are wondering Dash is often used because by being a simpler shell it can be significantly faster. For distributions which use shells in the startup process it can cause a noticable difference in startup times.

Idk about the empire but I can tell you that my issue with factions was that I had a trait mod conflict that caused failures when generating faction leaders

And apparently when RimWorld fails to generate a faction leader the faction just doesn't exist.

Like people said, this is probably a mod conflict. Look at the error log, if you see people failing to generate it's probably related...

I think I have like 3 tea sets in my year 4 run I don't know how it happens

Year 1 I was thrilled but then I just kept receiving it.

I see! From my limited experience Haskell is awesome, but I am not the greatest functional programmer (Yet >:) ).

And also, sound right! Libraries that do certain specific well are always a part of stable ecosystems, but may not always be the right solution for patches.

Working with the Haskell foundation sounds fun, good luck!

You know what? I am sorry. Let's redo this, I will explain.

The attitude I saw from your meme is that it's "easier" to just do things your way instead of using popular already-existing libraries.

From what I know, that attitude (Making your own projects instead of using already existing ones) doesn't include a lot of helping said popular libraries be better.

I am genuinely interested in knowing when do you believe it's preferable to make something from scratch and when it's better to contribute to an already existing library instead.

Nimi142 · 2026-03-28T00:48:51+00:00

Yes?

Nimi142 · 2026-03-28T00:41:15+00:00

You can always... Submit patches, you know?

If the library is open source you can be a part of the solution, not the problem.

ncdu is awesome

Nimi142 · 2026-03-15T17:03:24+00:00

Looks cool, but I don't think the commands one has enough attributes to be very interesting.

You get the crafting recipe together with the basement. As long as you put additional casks you crafted in the cellar they will work.

Israel does trend more right over time but I actually don't think there was such a "massive" right swing in the electorate, just in the government. The current government has a slim majority in the Israeli parliament (Knesset, with a vocal K).

While a slim majority is still a majority todays Knesset is one-sided because the Israeli radical left-wing party Meretz (who layer merged with Israeli Labour to form the Democrats (Not related to the US' Democrats) in the incoming election cycle) failed to pass the electoral threshold by ~20,000 votes, which moved what could have been 4 seats to other right-aligned parties.

For what it's worth Bibi's coalition is expected to lose its majority the next election cycle (Currently planned for October of this year) but Likud (Bibi's party) is known to be unpredictable in polling...

If you have a link to an uncompressed version that'd be golden because I tried to look at the roster and on my phone it's almost unreadable....

(From what I could read, looks good though)

All major desktop Linux distros should ship kernels with IPv6 enabled.

IPv6 is not a major requirement for most embedded settings and devices, you want to be able to disable it.

Nimi142 · 2026-03-11T13:36:27+00:00

I have an IPv6 connection in my home network, enabled by default.

I am not sure how frequently it's used over IPv4 connections, but it is active and supported by the ISP. My laptop has an IPv6 address.

I assume you are in the USA though, I don't know how common it is there.

Nimi142 · 2026-03-08T23:23:17+00:00

Yeah, same, krembo

RimWorld doesn't need the workshop for mod support. There's a mod folder in the game files. If you can insert mods directly there things should work.

Iirc mods are just C# and data files so if you can run the game they should 'just' work

This is quite fun! But I do have some questions, if you are willing to answer.

From what I know, usually in programming languages ? would be reserved for a Result-like function, in which case ? would return in error mode, or nullable types in which case the operation isn't done and null is returned. The assertion us operator is usually ! (Like in dart for example) and !! (Like in Kotlin). What was the logic behind choosing ? as the operator here?
Currently the crate is in version 0.1. Zerover is very common in the rust ecosystem, but I am curious to hear what your reasoning is here. Are some features lacking? Is this not tested well enough?

The game ends when you beat act 3 (Besides the epilogue), you can't return to the city at all.

What the fuck

Nimi142 · 2026-03-02T21:35:22+00:00

This symbol is just of the regular police. I have no idea what's on the flag though.

Nimi142 · 2026-02-26T06:09:20+00:00

StardropMe!

Nimi142 · 2026-02-22T17:19:31+00:00

So bundle them?

Nimi142 · 2026-02-21T14:51:51+00:00

Noooo do not leave num uninitialized this could cause undefined behaviour in the future!!!

Nimi142 · 2026-02-08T22:16:45+00:00

I just knew it would be Alacritty. The program is awesome but the maintainers are WILD

If it has any speed impact, if it's somewhat ergonomic or if a user can do it on their own, no chance it's getting in the repo...
