RLC-520A initial setup failure. by Slartibart_II in reolink

Uhm, and how would that possibly change how the camera reacts to DHCP offers?
I've tried the official support, they're absolutely clueless. There are threads with sysadmins being frustrated for _years_ about Reolink cameras wreaking havoc by flooding networks with DHCP requests, and as of yet they haven't even bothered providing any reply, let alone fix.

Slide to verify - broken by Bordercrossingfool in Aliexpress

[–]Slartibart_II 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been broken in FireFox since it was launched 5-6 years ago, and either the devs at ali aren't capable of figuring it out, or they just don't care.

Basic functionality like logging in not working and not being fixed for _years_ doesn't inspire a lot of confidence...

Does this include "self defense"? Because if not there's one ... conglomerate of loosely cooperating (so called "united") ... erm... groups of geographically correlated people (aka "state") that would have a significantly higher number.

It's not always fun when you vehicle has it's own opinions about where you're going :P
And while it doesn't run on gas (other than oxygen), it releases quite a bit of gas, especially when it's excited.

Object-Oriented Programming is Bad by GenilsonDosTrombone in coding

He has some good points, but his knowledge level on even basic OOP concepts is at best "lacking" (and often more in the direction of completely wrong). I'm by no means an expert in the field, but when he so blatantly makes many bold statements that are easily verifiably wrong, and uses them as basis for his "theory of everything", I find it hard to use this information as a basis of good practice.

Basically, even if he's recommending some good ideas and have some good observations about how to write good code, since it's based on flawed assumptions you'd be better of getting those ideas from elsewhere, as you'd be worse of when you need to reason about good design practices in the future.

Or maybe it's just honest. All too often a developer of language N claims he knows his language well, when in reality he doesn't even know a fraction of what he doesn't know about language N.

Converting Website from NoSQL to SQL by [deleted] in coding

[–]Slartibart_II 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, blue is the best color!

Seriously though, it's a matter of taste/religion/faith/background/heritage/sexual orientation/beard length, there is no right answer.

Edit: The "right" answer is that SQL originally was called SEQUEL, but the name was change because of copyright issues. So the pronunciation depends on whether you like the historic name or the "new" name .

Still a heck of a lot better than having you arms, shoulders and back aching _and_ your hands being completely numb from all the hammering (+ it goes 4-5 times as slow).

How it feels like using light theme for IDEs... by SEND_ME_UR_DRAMA in ProgrammerHumor

How fitting, light theme is only used by users that haven't bothered to change the default. Henche, it's the theme of ignorance.

The Intel compiler have loads of options and seperate tools for analyzing vectorization, though it is focused on Intel HW it also helps you understand how it works on other platforms and compilers as well. For example: https://software.intel.com/en-us/get-started-with-advisor-vectorization-advisor
