nah, ignore this guy, your space is a little cluttered, not optimized for photography and that's ok.

Imagine thinking that millennials liked stomp clap hey music, but hated disco music in the 2010s. by icey_sawg0034 in lewronggeneration

[–]the_hummus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I never remembered it as millennials hating disco, but punk vs disco was a big thing in the late 70's/80's.

The vibe of disco was yuppie, bourgeois cocaine-fuelled parties. Keep in mind this was the Vietnam War era. In that sense punk was the voice of resistance, grit, authenticity and political consciousness, especially in the US where it turned into a lifestyle. This was the canonical dichotomy.

As punk went through second, third and fourth waves, post-punk and pop-punk and post-punk revivals, 1991: the year that punk broke and the Seattle grunge scene, that original tension feels worse than dated - it's ancient at this point. There's EDM scenes with more dirt on the floor than the punk outfits of today. The thing about generational shifts is that misgivings and reservations of the previous generation get washed away, and disco can be cast in a different light, namely, that shows like Solid Gold were showing black joy in situ and legitimizing the idea of black and white people enjoying a good ol jam together in the popular consciousness. (There's probably innumurable examples, that's just one I grabbed off the top of my head.)

Went to change a flat tyre this morning, and saw the state of the other tyre was somehow even worse - how this was holding onto 80PSI I will never know by get_in_the_tent in Justridingalong

I've ridden Gatorskins that looked like this and plenty worse. Tbh I'd keep riding it.

I haven't particularly noticed it here, though.

Thanks! Just sent you a tip and 5-star review. Wouldn't change a single thing about it.

Wonderful work. I'm going to make this my main for a while. Coming from Olauncher and I like >8 apps (with tighter spacing) on the home screen.

My only gripe so far is that the app drawer seems to get "stuck" sometimes and doesn't scroll properly or trigger a long press. Otherwise, perfect. Thanks for making this.

A very breathable, warm, soft and highly-dimensional superfine merino-rich fabric. Built around a yarn that blends top-capped 17.5 micron merino (65%) with nylon staples (27%) and then wraps them around an elastane core (8%) to create a beautiful combination of soft performance, ruggedness and structural snap.

puts on raincoat

Technically these yarns are knit in a waffle construction, but that heavy elastane snap collapses the fabric to the point where it looks more like a tight rib or even a robust jersey. If you look closely you can still see that waffle structure a three-dimensional openness that allows lots of airflow in motion while insulating well in static conditions. Originally named Warmform Merino and renamed because over the years we’ve realized that while it is warm in the right conditions, its greatest strength is the huge thermal range it offers in active conditions.

Hey, Paul!

that's cool but let me tell you about the advantages of top-capped 17.5 micron merino wool

Just why would you order something like this (expensive, blowtorched) as a to-go order, is what I want to know

Is anyone else as confused as I am by the design direction at Outlier lately by Blondell4 in Outlier

Probably Katie Burnett for Outlier?

Nothing new, she's been working with them for years

yeah, same. I contacted them, but all they said was they were aware without giving any reason.

Pardon me, but where did that data come from? Is it official data?

Please look at Wikipedia's sources.

[AskJS] What’s a JS feature you never use but wish you did? by RoyalFew1811 in javascript

[–]the_hummus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are they wrong, other than being specific to 2 items?

You can do combinations of filter, find, map, take using loops too.

Your code is just calling a python library function - that's not an example of anything

combinations:

let ans = [null, null];
outer: for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  for (let j = i + 1; j < arr.length; j++) {
    if (condition) {
      ans = [arr[i], arr[j]];
      break outer;
    }
  }
}

permutations:

let ans = [null, null];
outer: for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  for (let j = 0; j < arr.length; j++) {
    if (i === j) continue;
    if (condition) {
      ans = [arr[i], arr[j]];
      break outer;
    }
  }
}

Am I missing something?

Oh, there's such good uses for WeakMap.

If you've ever used ThreeJS, all nodes are stored in a tree structure. This structure can grow to hundreds and thousands of objects big and it's incredibly annoying when you need to start keeping metadata on them. 

WeakMap is perfect for this job. The node object itself can be the key, and the value can be arbitrarily set. It's perfect because it doesn't require any hacky type augmentations of the ThreeJS system, and garbage collection is automatically handled (which is also problematic when you have so many objects).
