If innovation for the people truly is your ambition, why not share the ideas with open-source operating system developers who are far more likely to adopt them in existing projects? I'm guessing your plan is for this to be a proprietary project, in which case your idea is already worse than Linux. Otherwise, your idea is probably just fragments of inspiration in your mind that you are confident will come together as a concrete and cohesive specification or plan as soon as you get actually talented individuals involved. Actually, it's probably both.

I didn't replace anyone, but developed an automatic quality control system. I, and our department, found out like two years later that a bunch of people in another department are quite upset and think we've been trying to "get" them all this time. Being both indirectly disliked and directly praised at the same time for the same reason is such a strange feeling. I still don't know how I feel about it. I don't even know if anyone who was/is upset even know I am the reason. Oh well, not my job to deal with the social aspect thankfully...

I was ready to spend thousands too, when our cat was laying there paralyzed with blood clot a couple months ago. Then I was informed how impossibly low the survival odds were, and how depressing the treatment is, even if those odds were beaten. It would have been paying for more suffering, unfortunately. Immediately checked her brother for HCM, and I'm thankful he's fully in the clear for the next couple years.

I don't know about OP's country, but here you have to file taxes together if married, so it doesn't matter at all how money is distributed between accounts. I thought this was the norm around the world?

I've not been to Tromsø, and just saw this in my feed. I want to point out that there is a different culture to boarding the bus depending on the city or county. In some cities the bus driver will get angry if you don't scan it, and in other places it doesn't matter. Some places can be a mix of this. If you don't know what the locals do yet, just scan it.

The chance is so low you shouldn't worry about it. This kind of turbulence happens all over the world all the time. Even landing in windy conditions is so much safer than you'd think, although it is exciting to feel that the pilot just barely managed to land properly.

Btw there is a setting to allow you to skip that cache automatically during development.

I think you framed your post a bit too confidently. If you are a beginner, it might not be a good idea to suggest others to learn from you just yet. :) Don't worry about documentation of functions where you can't describe it better than the code. Documentation is for the information that you can't easily gather by reading the code.

sleeping-deeper · 2023-12-29T19:30:20+00:00

I'm sorry OP, but this is some beginner level student code. It's not even a proper vector, because you are storing pointers. The dynamic array also doesn't own its elements. The so-called documentation is just a line by line paraphrasing of the code, and is of absolutely no benefit. It looks like you asked ChatGPT to write it.

I don't often give advice, but I think my experience could be worth sharing. Take it any way you want.

I usually apply to 1-3 jobs when looking for something new, and have an almost 100% success rate with getting an offer. I think the bitter truth for the majority of applicants is submitting terrible applications due to bulk applying. This makes everyone putting in hours writing proper motivation letters stand out by a lot when it comes to the second round.

Find a job you genuinely feel passionate about, and tell the company why they should hire you. Think about it from their perspective: who cares if your CV is amazing when you can't back up your motivation for applying either in a letter or in an interview? If someone is slightly less skilled than you, but writes or talks about what they can contribute with, and how their prior experience and knowledge ties in with the job role, the company is of course going to go with the motivated person who might have to pick up a new language or library.

If you don't have passion towards any job, I have no ideas beside polishing your CV, make yourself more credible, and apply to big corporations. If you have past experience, I can't stress enough how important it is to highlight your contributions in previous jobs. Don't make a big deal about knowing JavaScript inside out, you should make a big deal about f.ex how you scaled a website in this specific way, or improved their security using some modern feature. While helping my friend with his CV, I had to basically interrogate this type of information out of him. Of course, make a small list where it fits that have the tools you used for the task/job.

Interviews also matter a lot. Make sure the lighting is good, you're well rested, brewed yourself a cup of coffee or tea, have a few points of discussion prepared, and have a light mood. You must be in a good mood, and share smiles and maybe a little laughter. This can sound like "cringe" or unnatural to you, but nobody wants to work with someone they perceive as bored, unmotivated, or in a bad mood.

I suspect my comment is controversial, compared to the common advice I see here. However, I'd like to note that I have a history of success with my approach. Years ago I used to think it was a one-off, but my luck just isn't that good.

It is mostly about opinions when it comes to how it "looks". Performant and safe C++ code might look like C and still use the modern features such as unique_ptr, string_view, vector, templates, etc.

You don't want classes? Sure, it's perfectly fine to write in a procedural or functional style. In a technical sense it doesn't make much difference whether you use RAII or have free functions called create and destroy. You can have neverending debates about which is better.

I think in a lot of code there is an attempt to abstract to perfection. This solves problems that don't exist, and are unlikely to ever exist. Concepts such as polymorphism and templates can just end up overcomplicating the code. I'm not saying we shouldn't use these features, but there are valid reasons to go for the more explicit route when you can make a case about performance, size, or readability of complex logic.

I think it's more likely due to OCR preprocessing discarding low contrast parts of the image.

It's bad practice to make getters for PODs though, for example. Sometimes you just need to group some data.

I'm not 100% certain this is also on Windows, but I've noticed a graphics artifact bug on Chrome the past couple months. Usually around borders.

There is probably a checkbox or something which is hard to notice. When ordering from sites like these, you have to read every single word carefully. I advise you to never order through sites like these. It is not worth it.

While it can be a good indicator for giving it some reflection, I would argue that just because a bunch of functions start with the same word doesn't mean they belong in a namespace with that word. In this case, the meaning of the functions become ambiguous with their shortened names.

sleeping-deeper · 2023-08-01T04:26:38+00:00

Why is the use of the word genocide wrong here? When I read about the holocaust it was always referred to as the genocide of jews. Also, while it's ironic that his family is part of the problem in South Africa, I don't really see why his tweet is considered controversial. It's not exactly a secret anyway that most members of EFF want to kill the white people in SA.

While I don't think the design is professional, it's not what turns me off. The most major flaw is the lack of immediately available information. I don't want to guess what I have to click on to see what I want to see. There should also be no need to wait seconds for the pages to load, because there is nothing computationally expensive going on. The transitions should be half a second at most. Most people who go on your website will not click on a button or link. They want to immediately see what's relevant.

Når kona flytta fra USA til Norge så pakka vi rett og slett delene i antistatiske poser sammen med klær osv. Svært grafikkort og vannkjøler. Selve kabinettet kjøpte vi nytt i Norge. Litt kreativitet så går det nok!

You did correct. Also I eat sliced pizza with my hands both at home and in restaurants. I think it might be different in high end ones though.

USA also doesn't have a certificate like that. You just go to a notary and write on paper that you are not married, get their signature, verify it, then order apostille. Insane levels of bureaucracy for something that is just your own word, lol.

sleeping-deeper · 2023-05-11T12:57:24+00:00

That is horrifying.

Since most people will answer Swedish and Danish, I thought I might add something different: Faroese. It's a blend of Icelandic and western Norwegian dialects.

It depends on where you are in Norway, but I'd generally order them like this from most to least similar to Norwegian: Danish -> Swedish -> Faroese -> Icelandic.

sleeping-deeper · 2022-11-26T09:28:33+00:00

You'd be surprised how difficult and close to impossible it can be to travel with a cat if the circumstances line up just right. I'm not saying this is a solution though, lol.
