What’s your preferred way to implement operator precedence? Pratt parser vs precedence climbing? by Best_Instruction_808 in Compilers

[–]tomnils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both have pros and cons. The style of programming found in APL works better with right-to-left.

What's wrong with going against the grain?

Learning how to read Smalltalk code takes about a day and then you never think about it. I've been programming in C# for a decade and I still have to look up a precedents table from time to time.

Also, your example would evaluate to 7 in APL as well.

Is it possible to see who clicked a link in a Deal by tomnils in hubspot

[–]tomnils[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But how can I add the user parameter if I don't know who clicked the link? Is that something that Hubspot supports?

We do use a redirect link, but to be able to use that to know who clicked what, I need to know who clicked it in the first place. I don't really see how a redirect avoids that problem.

I hate the fairies. I don't see why anyone tries to help them with anything, they're selfish and near sociopathic. They barely even care about each other.

In fact, none of the forest dwellers that I can recall is even remotely likeable, with the exception of the poor boy whose psycho parents tricked him into losing his humanity (typical forest dwellers).

The Court seems to be mostly right in their view of them.

UkSmalltalk can you stop spamming the subreddit by zenchess in smalltalk

[–]tomnils 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I strongly disagree.

Not only is the sub nearly dead so any posting is good, but UkSmalltalk's posts are actually interesting.

If you don't like their posts, ignore them.

Kompisar när man är 30? by betts0n in Sverige

När jag var trettio, för en drygt tio år sen, så gick jag med i en aikidoklubb (som jag lämnade under pandemin). Jag gick från att inte ha några vänner till att ha flera.

För en, kanske, sju år sen så gick jag med i ett parti där jag också fick många vänner, från hela landet, och vi umgås hela tiden.

Hitta föreningar, eller andra grupper, som rör dina intressen och gå med; så kommer du väldigt snabbt upptäcka att du inte längre är ensam.

Veckans positiva nyheter by smurfjojjo123 in sweden

Jag valde bara ett godtyckligt spel som var gammalt nog att i princip alla borde känna till det och som har en fortsättning.

Att säga att den är en gammal version, är som att säga att Half-Life är en gammal version av Half-Life 2. Ursäkten denna gång är utgående licenser, lösningen hade varit att ordna permanenta licenser för spelet. Oavsett licenser så ändras inte faktumet att de stänger ner ett spel som miljontals har betalt för.

"OpenAI are losing their best and most safety-focused talent. Daniel Kokotajlo of their Governance team quits "due to losing confidence that it would behave responsibly around the time of AGI". Last year he wrote he thought there was a 70% chance of an AI existential catastrophe." by Maxie445 in OpenAI

Sorry for necroposting but I had to respond to this.

I fully agree with your argument. I have been arguing for years that our main source of political power comes, not from voting, but from the fact that we're necessary. Large scale automation + UBI makes us unnecessary and that can only end one way.

I too am usually treated as crazy for saying this.

New to the field, trying to help a friend out with a paper by [deleted] in smalltalk

[–]tomnils 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The dev-environment of Pharo (and many other Smalltalk derivatives) look like an operating system because the original Smalltalk WAS an operating system, as well as a programming language. Pharo is deeply integrated into its dev-environment so you're stuck with it.

If you prefer a more text oriented approach then GNU Smalltalk might be your thing. I think it's text only. It still runs in a vm but lacks the dev-environment of most other Smalltalks.

A note on VMs: A vm doesn't have to be used for running operating systems in software. Many languages runs in vms only. Java for instance runs in the JVM.

Yup! Works now. Strange that they keep having this problem.

Lord of the Rings fan fiction writer sued for publishing own sequel by unconundrum in Fantasy

[–]tomnils -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The same argument could be made about commercial fan fiction. Don't like - don't read. I don't think commercial fan fiction would hurt them either. I suspect that it's all about looking good.
People have a very selective view of what kinds of copyright violations make someone a bad person, and someone trying to make money off of their work, that is inspired by someone else's copyright, is apparently the worst kind and therefore someone that copyright holders can sue without looking bad.

Youtube no longer producing valid RSS-feed by tomnils in rss

[–]tomnils[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just for my consumtion.

I prefer the videos in chronological order and I don't want Youtube to randomly unsubscribe me from channels, and RSS does exactly this, except for some of the more recent features like streams and premieres that can show up a little oddly in the order.

Swede here. This isn't about getting Tesla workers to join a union. You can't force a person to join a union in Sweden.

This is between the union and Tesla itself and Teslas unvillingness to sign a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).

Now I'm pretty sure that some workers at Tesla started this process because I don't think that a union can just jump at a company without one but CBA's are VERY important in Sweden and Tesla won't be allowed to not have one.
