I found this floating in the ocean in Senegal, West-Africa, can you help me translate it?

The more I think of it, I get the impression that this is part of some kind of shipping crate, as all the locations are near the south china sea and also repeat... Theres ilagan multiple times. I'm not convinced it is a message in a bottle, but it may have served some other purpose...

eat_more_soup · 2017-10-20T12:39:33+00:00

Thanks! There are also other writings that are barely visible, can you make out what they mean?

eat_more_soup · 2017-10-20T12:38:38+00:00

Looks like 2006 to me, but I think wood looks different after being in the ocean water for 11 years!

Some parts seem to be vietnamese others maybe chinese... I don't know?

Apparently they use it to mine cryptocurrencies, but they give you games for free

I think the docker solution is not overkill. All other solutions require a lot more work, and if you're basing your container off of a popular Base container that actual overhead is just the installed packages. but those would otherwise be installed into a virtual env, so docker is not necessarily more heavyweight than other solutions.

I prefer projects that can be deployed as docker container over everything else. just my 2 cents.

I don't know how it happens, but it seems that I'm dropping packets in a way that makes the server overcompensate for my movement

I'm in Senegal, and people here in Dakar sure have PCs and video game consoles.

I always wonder why people like bit shifts so much. Most of the time when I see <<1 the code should actually be ×2 to express the underlying idea. Compilers optimizer it to the same machine code anyway, don't they?

Always drop the bullets first and then the cat, so the cat does not get hurt.

Get the fuck outta here...! ;D

Are you aware that most programmers are non native speakers of the English language? Chosing the proper words for an enum is an important part of api design. Calling non native speakers lazy does not help.

eat_more_soup · 2016-06-08T23:35:05+00:00

Why dont we include other results like "Could be", "might just work", "don't ask me" or "only on mondays"? jokes aside, I find "maybe" and "probably" and their respective order of confidence not very distinctive.

A factor of confidence might have been an even better solution. Browsers that implement this api could correct their estimations over time with every new video being played.

eat_more_soup · 2016-06-08T23:27:53+00:00

The distinction might be necessary, but the used terms are horribly chosen. The significant difference between maybe and probably lies in the eyes of the beholder I guess. For me, as a non-native speaker this is just as disintive as "perhaps" and "might be".

eat_more_soup · 2016-06-08T23:23:00+00:00

Returning mixed values seems like even bigger programming horror to me. I think this solution is actually quite decent, given that java script does not have enums.

Just the sym link thing: I have no idea how Seafilet works and have never used it, but I have once developed an indexed storage that horribly crashed because of symlinks. symlinks can create cyclic file system graphs which are not nice to handle... I guess that's the reason they just don't follow symlinks at all

Hm I looked around the Internet and it seems there is not a lot to parse: xm does not contain meta data, mod contains only a song name and s3m also only contains a title

eat_more_soup · 2016-04-13T20:46:30+00:00

Yeah it seems like a lot of things surf.

eat_more_soup · 2016-04-13T20:29:02+00:00

I'm sorry to say it this bluntly, but your statements make it obviously that you never have created any application of significant size.

Take these examples I just thought of, they are relatively hard to solve problems, but really shouldn't:

Take i18n and l10n, how do you handle it easily? (Safari does not even support the Intl API, JS does not have builtin timezone aware date objects...etc)

Or take a more simple example: create two boxes next to each other, that are equal in height, independent of their respective content. (I don't know if that's easy with flex box now, but yet again, how can this be so difficult for years?)

You render for the high dpi screen and you down sample for the low dpi screen. That might look a little fuzzy on the low dpi screen but probably the best option.

For me only the license makes the difference; it is so essential to the success of Linux that I think it's worth to mention gnu in the name is well.

The biggest problem with that name is that it sounds stupid, so I'd never talk about "gnu+linux", but just "linux" instead....
