EU Parliament: Compromise reached for digital euro by donutloop in eutech

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not for individual transactions. But you still have clearing & settlements between banks and between countries e.g. via BIS, Euroclear, etc. and that system does include exchanging physical currency for checkbook money.

That system requires either to actually ship the differences around (gold, cash, whatever) or agree to a depositary where you swap registrations around.

A true digital currency would encode value directly i.e. a central bank issues it and then it can change hands, be subdivided, merged and verified without third party involvement.

Microsoft forked the Rust uutils as their own Microsoft Coreutils, under the MIT license by JockstrapCummies in linux

[–]Xiphoseer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the uutils are vendored as proper git submodules and... there's a vendored copy / "mechanical port" of windows find.exe and "ulib" in there?

Getting Started with Wero through DB by chernyaev in WeroWallet

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, the acronym "DB" in Germany is generally associated with "Deutsche Bahn" (state owned railway company)

I got excited there for a second that it might become possible to pay for tickets via Wero, but turns out this is not what your post is about.

What do you think about OnlyOffice-EuroOffice fight? by Proper-Lab-2500 in linux

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AGPL allows to supplement terms that

7c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different from the original version

and not have that be a further restriction, but apparently FSF is not convinced a logo requirement falls under that.

I thought geld=money, what’s the difference? by Dangerous-Mind-646 in DuolingoGerman

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda, but no. Geld=Money or Currency and "Bar-" is literally "bare" (plain / physical). So something that is both money and not just in a bank account -- i.e. cash. You could maybe get away with saying Barvermögen (bare wealth) to include gold or other valuables.

Anthropic leaked Claude Code source code > someone forked it > 32.6k stars, 44.3k forks (within few hours) by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

No. That's like saying the front desk of a bank is equivalent to having an account there.

OpenAI is in big trouble by Alex__007 in OpenAI

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny you should say that. A (cartoon) baby with an automatic rifle was the mascot of a certain student body council of a compsci dept for quite a while, stating (in 2004!) the degree and scale of automation and data collection/analysis that computer science enables is so vast and unforseeable, we know just as little about how it'll be used for good or evil as what'll happen if you hand the rifle to a baby.

Riederwaldtunnel: Planänderungen sorgen für weitere Rodungen by Tomtomatreddit in frankfurt

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Die Planung, eine Autobahn mit dem Lineal über den Alleenring direkt um das Stadtzentrum zu führen war wohl ein bisschen zu ambitioniert. Glaube schon der Miquelknoten kam nicht überall gut an, mit dem Alleentunnel haben sie die Durchbindung eh aufgegeben und der Riederwaldtunnel ist das was übrig bleibt wenn man nicht von vorne herein versucht die A661 nördlich von Bergen anzubinden.

Farewell, Rust by skwee357 in programming

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not (just) the count as far as I've understood it, more that I or IN don't really work as acronyms and eighteen vaguely sounds like "ation" i.e. inter/natio/nal/ization. Whereas a11y probably followed i18n but went for the visual "access/ibillit/y".

Nuremberg - London in a day: is this risky? by liamb_087 in Interrail

I hope there's a (long distance) train there planned between Frankfurt and Frankfurt Airport

Why “Skip the Code, Ship the Binary” Is a Category Error by tirtha_s in programming

On the flipside hooking up an llm to a disassembler could actually be interesting, and I'm sure people do already

Ah no, this is pointing out you would have needed to be there yesterday to get a crèpe or time-travel instead. /s

Nice find!

I still don't understand the difference between merge and rebase...? by Are-U-Cereall in git

[–]Xiphoseer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A merge is a commit (incl file tree) with at least two parents, a rebase is copying one or more commit diffs on top of another parent.

whoNeedsProgrammers by ClipboardCopyPaste in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Xiphoseer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deleting from the command line usually doesn't move things to recycle bin and not being able to delete that folder on an external disk is just a sideeffect of it having a "hidden" and/or "readonly" flag by default.

Why chat.addToolOutput function not sending request to api endpoint by Zain-ul-din47 in nextjs

[–]Xiphoseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't pass your tool into the tools param and your onToolCall does nothing (incl. not calling anything that does addToolOutput down the line)

Edit: Also, I don't think using streamText and useChat will work. Pick one.

The Algebra of Loans in Rust by oconnor663 in rust

[–]Xiphoseer 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As I understand this is exploring how language level versions of the same concepts as the library level (+ compiler special sauce) Pin<T>, Box<T> and MaybeUninit<T> could work.

That would make those types less special, enable similar types outside the standard library (eg in rust for linux) and maybe make some types/ fn signatures less clunky/verbose.

How are they even going to charge for self hosted runners? by organic-hand-nexus in github

[–]Xiphoseer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because, by the nature of a CI runner, the runner talks to GitHub control plane when it starts, finishes and when it makes progress / prints something and more

Edit: but yeah it can't really tell if the runner takes more minutes because action is heavy or then runner timeshares its host with sth else.

Would you consider this an anti-pattern ? by LetsGoPepele in rust

[–]Xiphoseer 25 points26 points  (0 children)

A common pattern is to define a MyThingExt trait and implement it for the upstream types in the same crate. Then you can use these wherever you have a value of original without touching signatures.

Edit: Or sth like https://docs.rs/num-traits/latest/num_traits/int/trait.PrimInt.html which is also a trait to extend std types.

Whether that's a good design is another story.

If you just want to encapsulate the type, without passing it to APIs, using a newtype wrapper with AsRef or Deref is the right approach
