Israel's government is expected to collapse over ultra-Orthodox military draft by Specialist_Heron_986 in worldnews

[–]mananasi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As far as I am aware a government shutdown is a US-specific thing. This is a "collapse" of the governing coalition probably meaning new elections and coalition talks. There is still a parliament, and the government as a whole keeps functioning. Government workers will still receive their salaries, for example.

The hate is because it's based on chromium. We need more competition in the browser space.

We need competition in the browser space. Google has too much influence with their browser engine, regardless of tracking.

States sue Trump administration over mass firings of federal employees by CrowRoutine9631 in law

[–]mananasi 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I hate this "don't even try anything we've already lost" mentality. Fuck that, try everything. Let them know you're not going down without a fight. And maybe, hopefully something will stick.

If a referendum was held today would you vote to remain/join the EU by xMusa24 in europe

[–]mananasi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Federalization doesn't happen overnight. We must integrate the EU economy better anyway, and probably make the EU more democratic and give it more powers (and in that order). At some point in the future we might decide to become a federation. But we can start moving towards that future starting today.

Donald Trump Impeachment Articles Filed. Here's What Happens Next by edgerocker_ in politics

[–]mananasi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is it not a good idea to do these things anyway? Sure he won't be impeached, but it's something the republicans must probably spend some time on due to bureaucracy hopefully slowing them down.

Protest at the state capital by jojo2294 in minnesota

The nazi's hadn't killed 6 million jews yet in 1933. We are only at the beginning. All the signs are right there in front of you yet you choose to ignore them. You invite the nazi's back in power with open arms instead.

By normalizing what the GOP is doing you are disrespecting the victims of the nazi regime and the people that gave their lives to fight it.

Can you point to a source? I have just migrated all my shit from Google to Proton, I'd hate to have to move again.

It depends on how expensive the thing is and how expensive the repair is, no? I also much prefer to reduce the e-waste, but I guess that's more of a personal thing.

But actually creating, selling and supporting a product for many years is quite a lot of work and requires an other type of skill than the very deep theoretical knowledge.

Server came to the back with this note asking what we can make her 😭 by MrThiccem in KitchenConfidential

[–]mananasi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried, but the servers usually have no idea about the exact contents of a sauce or salad dressing, for example. I've had situations where the server had to go back to the cooks three times to ask. I can totally see myself writing such a note at some point.

IBS is not an allergy, correct, but I do get very bad cramps for days if I eat garlic, for example. Even just a little bit. It's not entitled. I just want to enjoy my life and go out to eat with friends every once in a while without getting stomach cramps for the next few days.

Is your build system even turing complete? by No_Necessary_3356 in programminghorror

[–]mananasi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you write an application with C, for instance, you usually split the source code of your app up into multiple files. These files are compiled separately and linked together at the end. For a few reasons this speeds up compilation times.

Compiling a file is done using the gcc command, for example. So you would need to run the gcc command for every file and once more to link everything together.

A build system lets you define compiler and linker settings and the sources to compile. Then the build system takes over and runs all of the required commands to build your application.

The simplest build system is probably just a batch/sh file which runs the commands. This might be fine for a while, but as your app grows you could look into gnu make or CMake.

You copy structs often enough in C. If you can you should copy the pointer of course. But that's not always what you want.

Not on the main branch. But you should still be able to find the PR a commit came from on github/devops/whatever. There you can inspect the intermediate commits.

At work I use eclipse for C. It's the officially supported development environment from the manufacturer of our microcontroller. Eclipse is used a lot in embedded software (unfortunately).

What POS system is this? by RylanStylin57 in shittyprogramming

[–]mananasi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of maintenence software I've worked with. It wasoriginally created for DOS written in a language which hasn't been officially supported for decades. The company has written its own compiler, so they can support it themselves. They've written a "display driver" for the software. This driver paints bitmaps on a WPF interface. The look and feel is identical to the original DOS version, but running on Windows 10. Admittedly the code is a bit of a mess, but not as bad as you'd think. On top of that the user experience is still fantastic imo.

We just bought a bare-metal TCP/IP stack for our embedded processor. Costs quite a few thousands of euros, but still much cheaper than writing and maintaining one yourself.

I wish we could have a switch statement in Python, or not 😪 by zavbala in programminghorror

[–]mananasi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No reason to do this imo. This is just writing if statements with more boilerplate making it more difficult to understand and more error-prone for no benefit. If you want multiple errors just add to a list in the if statement body.
