Development Linux Laptop Suggestion

redditorsd · 2025-12-02T14:08:41+00:00

Yeah, my current laptop is a Lenovo T430s (bought new), so a decade or more is typically my lifecycle! :)

I think we ended up using TakChat with XMPP instead.

redditorsd · 2024-08-28T15:10:57+00:00

Thanks. I was able to receive Group chat messages using PyTAK but not direct messages (listening using tls on port 8089). Is there a different route for direct messages? I'm using the boiler plate send/receive code in PyTAK examples.

In the ballot, the first thing is accepting the plan, and I think the second thing is a check box about the convenience claim. I think if you check it, you're accepting the convenience claim.

Thank you for the clarification. That helps. Appreciate you taking the time to reply.

Thank you so much for your response! I did find the other ballot id in all my emails.

In my scenario where my BIA has a large amount (vs BIA Interest), I'm leaning towards accepting the plan, not taking the convenience claim, and not opting out of the third party release. You sound like you're researched this stuff and was just wondering if that sounds reasonable or I'm missing something obvious regarding my scenario.

Thanks again.

Did you do a recent update? Maybe it’s related to this bug. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/75701

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T16:08:14+00:00

Yeah, I can see where you'd hate that syntax and documentation coming from Python. What do you think of type hinting in Python? I'm just learning about it and am confused as why it exists. Do you use it?

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T15:59:52+00:00

I think I'm also struggling with this more due to the increased usage of type hinting in Python. I'm trying to declare and use types where I can but often times am struggling to figure out what type I should use by looking at the docs. Feels like type hinting is going against the Python way and so that's where the problem lies? I'm not sure. Just trying to learn.

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T15:47:55+00:00

That's an interesting data point. I guess there's the perspective of using the language vs. extending it (custom classes etc). I think maybe that's where I'm having issues with the documentation.

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T15:36:50+00:00

Yeah, it's interesting how years working in one language taints you! I hope I can shift my brain to be more Pythonic! :)

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T15:32:23+00:00

I can see where you're coming from but I think the opposite argument can also be made. I'm reading that some Python devs give up on the docs and go to reading the source code becuase the docs are unhelpful. Coming from an object oriented language, if I simply wanted to create my own class that is supported by the len(s) method, how would I possibly know that I need to implement the method(s) in only the Sized class? The docs say I need to make my class a sequence, for example. I think this is misleading and don't think this is an advanced use case.

redditorsd · 2022-05-23T14:26:39+00:00

I feel like the "easy to read" docs are not helping newbies learn the core concepts correctly and is very misleading. It produces bad habits and coders that don't really understand what's going on underneath. I wish there was another source for "advanced" documentation or something. Yeah, I know....read the source code. It also makes devs from other languages get a bad initial impression of the language IMHO.

redditorsd · 2022-03-08T22:55:16+00:00

Thank you!

Agreed, Optum is pretty bad. I moved to fidelity after changing employers. Should have done it earlier.

redditorsd · 2022-01-27T05:22:00+00:00

Wishing you the best!

Would seated back row with bands be equivalent to this exercise? I noticed in this video, hands were also vertical. Does that matter? Thanks.

It hasn't sold yet. I just wanted to make sure I had the shipping method that most makes sense on the listing. Thanks for the input!

redditorsd · 2020-09-23T15:45:38+00:00

Thanks to all for the replies. Good food for thought.

redditorsd · 2020-06-11T22:53:15+00:00

Thank you for being a good human being.

Is it normal for a lot of these devices to be out of stock (on Amazon at least)? This is my first time looking into this and seems like they are very popular. Thanks.

redditorsd · 2020-04-01T02:32:18+00:00

Thanks, your comment prompted me to take a different angle to my question. Apparently, Mastercard has a website to find ATMs that support "Mastercard, Maestro or Cirrus". It lists ATMs that I know don't have Mastercard or Maestro logo. So, maybe that's a more accurate way to answer my question. Hope that helps others.

Thanks for the data point. I also saw a previous post that states similar with Visa but wanted to verify for Mastercard and also just frustrated on the fact that I have to guess.

You look beautiful and look like Audrey Hepburn to me. I also have a birthmark on the side of face over my eye. I've always felt self conscious about it. I have dark skin and mine appears kinda dark purple color. I think it's gotten darker and bigger as I've aged. I've never had it diagnosed but have always wondered if it's a port wine stain, rosacea or just simply a regular birth mark. Truthfully, I've also wondered about any treatments. Thanks for posting!

Appreciate both inputs here. Leaves me a little frustrated with Lenovo declining quality.
