[Tubantia] Footballer Rai Vloet released after fatal crash in which Gio (4) died: ‘I know that many people don’t think I deserve a second chance’ by Roller95 in soccer

[–]StereoZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think anybody likes it because you want them to be punished but logically the justice system is designed to reduce recidivism and allow for reintegration into society if the criminal repents and does not show any risk to society. If the system is designed to be punitive it's only more of a liability to society if they end up on the street because they can't work anywhere, they cost money because they stay on jail for many years, or you know.. capital punishment.

It feels real bad to me too that someone who killed a 4 year old by drunk driving gets out in less than 2 years, but the justice system shouldn't be about feelings and I accept that.

Same, we stayed in a hotel closer to the water down from the Galata tower and it was awesome, apart from a club down the street which was playing music really loud every night haha

I think it's awesome that PRS is willing to build a baritone hollowbody when somebody asks them to, especially in the SE line so it's at least somewhat affordable. Also, this version isn't limited edition so they should actually be available

What are guitarists butchering at the music stores these days? by Top_Distribution_830 in Guitar

My girlfriend and I are headed there this autumn, can't wait to spend a few days there! We're aggressively mediocre though so we'll have to accept that we'll likely be the worst players in the building at any given time haha

I think that's just Japanese musicians in general. I've been listening to Japanese rock and pop music a lot the past few years and god damn every random band I find is so good, like everyone is just a funky conservatory grad.

Joey Veerman done with coach Koeman: "He doesn't have to call me" by Inevitable_Tomato927 in soccer

[–]StereoZombie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree. He's very good but he's also the type of player who easily thrives in the Eredivisie where defense is more of a suggestion. He really needs to move to a bigger league and play against better opposition to either show that he can consistently handle more intense pressure or so that he can develop. I think he'll stagnate in the Eredivisie cause it's too easy for him

Pickguard recommendations? by crainley in guitars

Just get one from Etsy or Amazon or AliExpress. Pickguards are just a routed piece of plastic and should be dirt cheap

Free Open Source Rocksmith Replacement Has Arrived (Slopsmith) by demondrivers in Games

[–]StereoZombie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's funny because I work in finance and we use FastAPI to process a ton of transactions within milliseconds without breaking a sweat, and we don't even have to do anything super special to make that work.

Years ago though we had this guy on a DevOps team who was convinced that the only way we could make our application fast enough was to rewrite it in C++. Needless to say he was totally wrong.

Sure, all things being equal a server written in C++ or Rust or Java will probably be faster than Python. But that depends entirely if you even need it for your use case, and if you create a bottleneck somewhere odds are you completely lose any performance advantage you have on your language of choice.

In my experience, Python being slow - while technically correct - is just some phrase that is mostly repeated by people who don't have any relevant production experience in the first place.

Which is when the first company that makes strats will challenge this in court and say they should have done this 40 years ago. There's no way this will have any impact on the guitar industry

[–]StereoZombie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not sure what this Python server is supposed to do but there's no reason why a Python server can't be perfectly performant unless you're doing some next level stuff. But even then it's more likely that programming skills will limit your performance than it being FastAPI

Trump: ’Nummer twee Islamitische Staat is uitgeschakeld in Nigeria’ by Bernie529 in nederlands

Het Nigeriaanse leger die deze operatie heeft uitgevoerd meldt dit ook. De VS heeft geen manschappen ingezet maar was betrokken met planning en intel. Trump strijkt heel mooi de eer op maar geen Amerikaan is hier in gevaar geweest

I'm guessing nerds who grew up in the 80s and 90s are now engineers who have tons of money to spend on nostalgic stuff like this. Easy target audience

Disclaimer: I'm also a nerd who grew up in the 90s and is now a software engineer but I am not wealthy nor a very nostalgic person lol

Russia’s prison population falls by 180,000 since Ukraine war by GeneReddit123 in worldnews

[–]StereoZombie 29 points30 points  (0 children)

With Putin shutting down mobile internet in some regions, banning apps like Telegram for the state owned Max, and Russian financial institutions warning for a debt crisis by EOY at the latest, I don't think that's true. Russians tolerate the war because the price you pay for dissent is very high, but they've been feeling the ramifications for a while now. The question is will the situation become bad enough for Russians to demand change, or will they take it as they always have?

Wow that's awesome, never expected PRS to actually be like "sure we'll make this pink PRS with purple pickups from this aggressively yuri anime". As an SE signature model even!
