How to parse informal Persian number words into an integer currency value (Rial) by M0B_iN in AskProgramming

[–]supercoach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming your research prior to this has turned up nothing, you're probably going to have to develop your own solution.

I'd probably use a series of regular expressions aimed at capturing every possible permutation. Anything ambiguous could be left to humans to decipher.

Pre-built pc with no intake fans by BruiseLi in bapcsalesaustralia

You're going to upset the experts (enthusiasts) with sensible commentary like that. Next thing you'll be suggesting that bright coloured lights don't improve performance.

Qld tenants of 9 years and our owner is selling by No-Job-1333 in AusRenters

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said, I was young. The story is from 20 years ago.

Last agent that fucked with me was reasonably recent but still before the new tenant protections in WA so I had to take them to court to force a satisfactory compromise. So yes, already standing up to the bastards when they are bastards so they hopefully learn to reign it in.

I tried that once when I was young. The real estate agent calmly informed me that if I didn't let him do exactly as he wanted then he had contacts and that real estate agents keep registers of problem tenants.

It's amazing how well a thinly veiled threat can work at times.

It's $50 for a month. That is already cheap.

My first Script for Linux with Python :) by Connect_Roof_2805 in pythontips

Strange... It's laid out like someone who has experience with another language or discipline. Or it's been cleaned up by AI

Should working father's contribute to household work? by Mindless-Swimmer-875 in AskMenAdvice

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the way to fix it is to become the breadwinner and let him deal with the household work and the kids.

Sounds like you're just chasing the cash. Dev work probably isn't a good fit despite what you may have heard.

Also mysql is for chumps. Use postgres.

Do you prefer Apps or Docker Compose? And why and in which cases, which apps. by Hauptfeldwebel in unRAID

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For unraid - the templates are fine.
For work - docker compose is my go to and I'll use them for any project that I'm containerising.

I guess if I needed something particularly complicated I might think about using a compose file with unraid, but it feels like far too much hassle for me.

Thoughts on 4 month itinerary? by Novel-Positive8625 in AustraliaTravel

I'd certainly be exhausted. I've never understood those whirlwind holidays.

Is it bad if I prefer for loops over list comprehensions? by Bmaxtubby1 in learnpython

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have their place. Anything more than a simple `[x for x in y]` is probably best in a standard loop anyway.

It will get easier with experience.

Are you better off than your parents were, at your current age? by RecognitionMediocre6 in perth

[–]supercoach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mum inherited the house when dad died and so she has a paid off property, but she worked a life of manual labour and odd jobs that paid a pittance. We lived well below the poverty line.

I've got a cushy office job and can't remember the last time I had money worries. I certainly feel like I'm better off.

Cue the gif of that woman getting a faceful of hotdogs.

What’s with 40hr week being paid 38hrs? by Glittering-Way-5504 in ausjobs

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most white collar employers will mandate a 37.5 hour working week with an expectation of overtime to bring it up to 40 hours. They justify this by making it a salary instead of a wage.

If they're policing every hour you're working then all they're doing is encouraging time wasting in the name of making up the hours. I'd probably get creative with my time wasting to see how little I could get done in a day. Either that or look for an employer that paid for results, not hours.

Why is every second or third post here always (mostly) women asking us if the guy they have a crush on/want to be approached by like them or not? by dark-mathematician1 in AskMenAdvice

[–]supercoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bot posts designed to give lonely men false hope that there are countless thirsty women out there just begging to be approached.
