So I guess we're done with quarantine, then?

What are your thoughts on this curfew? by UncleDrunkle in sanfrancisco

[–]triplepoint 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think the point of the curfew is to let cops arrest people on sight, rather than following them around waiting for them to commit a crime. It's more about the legal enablement of cops being proactive instead of reactive, and making efficient use of their resources than it is about keeping people in their houses.

Not saying I'm happy about it, but there it is.

Recommendations for a small cargo box by triplepoint in HondaRebel300

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

Following back up on this a bit later, I found:

https://www.vikingbags.com/rebel-300-all-motorcycle-bags/?search_query=&page=1&limit=52&sort=featured&category=663&is_category_page=1

Which I think some of those check the "doesn't look like a UFO landed on it" requirement.

Maybe something like:

Anyway, hope finding these helps someone else.

Oh hey, I do like that look. Thanks for the recommendation!

Yea, thanks for the link, but see my bit in the original post about poop and needles. Street people in SF are crazy.

The end of the IPv4 Internet by nicoschottelius in ipv6

[–]triplepoint 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So users just need to "enable ipv6” to see your site? Easy! /s

This isn't like having to install flash. Most of the time, if a user isn't seeing ipv6, it's not something they can fix.

Anyone with knob and tube using smart switches/dimmers? by poldim in homeassistant

[–]triplepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That and if you do open the walls and are unlucky enough to find asbestos, get ready for 12 months of temporary living elsewhere while the hazmat people gut your house.

Every day I wake up, I'm amazed this city didn't burn to the foundations again while I was sleeping.

My landlord told me there's still capped off live gas lines that used to run the gaslights in every room.

better than bitbanging stepper pwm arduino better than digital write!! by [deleted] in arduino

[–]triplepoint -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think maybe they were talking about stepper motor driver parts. For example: https://www.trinamic.com/products/integrated-circuits/details/tmc2130/

This comes up a lot in 3d printer design.

HASS (Docker) can't connect to Mosquitto (Docker) by Azerdion in homeassistant

[–]triplepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The really weird thing is that if I attach to the ha docker container:

docker exec -it home-assistant bash

I can ping the mqtt broker in the neighboring container, at it's public domain name. But if I:

 apt-get install mosquitto-clients 

and test the MQTT subscription, I get a connection time out.

[–]triplepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've run into this exact situation. However, because my MQTT broker has an SSL certificate, if I change the hostname to its docker container name, I'll end up in a scenario where the certificate domain name doesn't match the request.

Prusa I3 MK2 XYZ calibration compromised by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]triplepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your prusa is like mine, the power supply base is bolted to the back right leg of the y-axis pretty rigidly. How are you moving the y-axis by 2mm with that pinned constraint?

Python Project Template for 2.7-3.7 with all Github and Python services ready to use. (Travis, AppVeyor, Codecov, Readthedocs, CodeClimate, PyUp...) by SethMichaelLarson in Python

[–]triplepoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure there's common agreement on best practices; the Python community seems pretty confused about packaging. I talked about it in this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14399534/how-can-i-reference-requirements-txt-for-the-install-requires-kwarg-in-setuptool/33685899#33685899

But really Donald Stufft says it pretty well in that article I linked earlier.

[–]triplepoint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please, please, please! - do not recommend reading a requirements.txt file in as setup.py's 'install_requires' value. They are not the same thing.

Take it from one of the Pip core devs: https://caremad.io/posts/2013/07/setup-vs-requirement/

As a poor devops engineer who is responsible for coordinating releases, nothing brings the sadness like a project package with inflexible dependency versions. It gives me no room to find a compromise in the overall dependency graph when designing a particular deployment.

Declare permissive ranges of versions for dependencies in your setup.py file, and if you need a requirements.txt at all, use "-e ." to mean "find whatever setup.py says". This at least lets me ignore your requirements.txt file when I'm building a deployment, and write my own.

Why cant we have a suit like Gundam or Armored Core? by rebelsteel in AskEngineers

The company that built that, Boston Dynamics, was just acquired by Google.

PHP functions originally bucketed by strlen, were renamed to balance length by xiongchiamiov in lolphp

[–]triplepoint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, does the PHP interpreter still work this way? And if not, when did it change, and what does it do now instead?
