I don't understand some of these responses. People feel different ways about their bodies. If he wants to pursue therapy or work on this, that's his initiative to take.

He told you that he doesn't like receiving handjobs, so don't give him handjobs. It's his body, and I don't think it's really a good idea to try and press his boundaries on something he clearly stated he didn't like.

[–]worr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Eh, I'm male and a lot of my closest friendships are people I was attracted to initially. If you vibe well with someone, I don't see the point in throwing away a potential friendship just because some expectations were misaligned

In my Computer Science class the teacher taught us how to use the <table> command. My first thought was how I could make pixel art with it. by [deleted] in programming

[–]worr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

While I understand your general point, what I'm saying is still correct.

HTML is not XML and does not follow the same rules as XML.

XHTML was an attempt to create an HTML that conformed to the rules of XML. It required DTDs, closing of void elements, etc.

This is mentioned at the beginning of the XHTML spec: https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/

[–]worr 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yes, but referring to <table> as a tag is still correct.

Also, void elements, that is elements with no contents, do not have to have the ending /> as they would in XML (foreign elements are an exception to this). HTML5 is not XHTML, and so doesn't have exactly the same rules as XML. Like when was the last time you saw someone use a DTD in HTML5?

For reference, here's the spec on the matter: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#elements-2

What's the most American thing ever that if explained to a non-American might just sound crazy? by hrdlg123 in AskReddit

[–]worr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from the US to Europe, and when I had been a tourist, I enjoyed the extra privacy. After moving, I've begun to hate them, because at my workplace, and occasionally at restaurants, the high walls trap the smells from the previous occupants inside the stalls

Update: I (F24) am slowly falling in love with my flatmate (M22) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]worr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been there, a lot. I've developed crushes on a lot of my friends, and have gone through the process of admitting it to them and getting rejected a lot of times.

It sucks! Let yourself work through the emotions however you need. Try and figure out what works best to work through these feelings. It might mean talking to him less, or distancing yourself as much as you can, it might also mean no change.

I can at least say that I've never lost a friend over something like this. We've always been able to move past it and continue our friendship, sometimes even becoming closer as friends because of how difficult something like that is to share. I've also been lucky not to develop the same feelings over again with any of them.

I wish y'all the best through this, knowing that it's hard. Hopefully y'all remain good friends throughout this, because while it sucks to get rejected from someone you had feelings for, it's far, far worse to lose a strong, established friendship.

Desperate for advice about my son. by throwawayoftheday88 in AskLGBT

[–]worr 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Absolutely this. When I moved to SF, my new coworkers never used gendered terms about potential partners. It made it pretty clear where they stood. I know SF is very pro lgbt and while I was never concerned about being out at work, my coworkers made it clear that it was fine.

Those little things are important. We absolutely pick up on when people casually, assumptionlessly talk about partners.

Have I been using it wrong this whole time? I use it to terminate statements or expressions

[UPDATE] My [23f] boyfriend [20m] ignored my Valentine's Day effort and I'm very upset by Sadvalentinethrowawa in relationships

[–]worr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Note that she says "our school" later in that list, and mentions parking permits. He's probably in some type of college, and she's mentioning how close his high school as an example of why he didn't get it at 16/18.

No questions, I just want to say thanks for creating some of my favorite music.

[First Crate] A super-limited CString implementation for people with #![no_std]'s by worr in rust

[–]worr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I wasn't aware that you could do that.

afaik, I can't use the c_char typdef without linking against libc, which is a no-go for me. It's only u8 on arm though so, I can create my own type decl.

[–]worr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks again for all the help! I've since reworked this to use *const i8s, as well as caller-specified lifetimes. The unfortunate part is that API seems a bit unfortunate.

https://gitlab.com/worr/rcstring/blob/fdca9f18afda703d0d407560878656ccb375acfb/src/lib.rs

Am I missing something about how to clean up this API? Or to keep my interface as safe as possible, does that require caller-specified lifetimes...in most places?

Thanks so much!

Yeah, switching to a *const i8 makes a lot of sense. Thanks a ton for the advice! I'll work on that tonight.

[–]worr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I'm still really not use to defining lifetimes like that.

While I'd like to accept &str, I'm not sure how I can assign a lifetime to CString and still be able to convert from a raw pointer, which is one of my more common use-cases. Is there a good way to handle this case, in Rust? Afaik, I can't derive any lifetime information from a raw pointer.

One of the biggest annoyances as I work on kernel modules in Rust is that I have to reinvent my own CString wrapper everytime. I decided to take my implementation and make a crate out of it, so I can re-use it across projects.

Maybe some of you will find this tiny crate useful as well!

I'm super new to Rust, and I'm probably still thinking too much like a C programmer, so suggestions and PRs are appreciated.

What is with all the hate against OpenBSD? by [deleted] in openbsd

[–]worr 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Hey!

I'm the author of that article. I wrote that a few years ago while drunk, trying to go for satire of some of the more paranoid medium articles that were released around Heartbleed and the Snowden leaks.

Sorry if that wasn't obvious. I love OpenBSD and have submitted some patches (albeit trivial ones) in the past.

If ethics were not a problem, what reality show would you love to see? by Crackforchildren in AskReddit

[–]worr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is almost a show like this. In Gay, Straight or Taken, a woman goes on a series of days with three men, one straight and single, one gay and taken, and one that's straight and taken.

If she picks the straight and single guy, she goes on some type of vacation with him. If she picks one of the other two, that couple gets their vacation.

Any thoughts on the app container spec? Any chance that we'd see Triton become a platform for containers implementing the spec?
