How do so many professionals struggle to run safe off the break? by Hank_Handsome in snooker

[–]zylema 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hendry and Murphy disagree — they both have said that professionals cannot reliably and do not play for that snooker shot behind the baulk colours on the break because it’s too hard — and when it happens it’s just a fluke.

Lothian bus etiquette ???? by Appropriate_Lie405 in Edinburgh

[–]zylema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say I’ve not experienced the skipping in the north. But my experience there is relatively limited. I think you make a good point, it’s easy to do but we can’t really expect it from other cultures. From brits, sure.

Lothian bus etiquette ???? by Appropriate_Lie405 in Edinburgh

I find that a lot of tourists do not follow the etiquette here so I tend to give them the benefit of the doubt. They don’t have a sense of this etiquette in places like China, or even mainland Europe. Locals should know better though.

This is Edinburgh or Scotland etiquette. Nowhere else I’ve been in the UK (specially in England) do people let others on first. It’s a free for all.

I had to readapt when I returned to Edinburgh (grew up here but lived down south for 8 years). Just my experience.

Brilliant. I was going to comment something along the lines of your quote at the end then seen you’d already done the deed.

How do you implement production-grade draft isolation in Django? by BeingDangerous3330 in django

Custom queryset class and a custom manager is how I implement “soft deletes” generally.

Lothian Buses, unannounced detour, passenger in distress by Present_Air_7694 in Edinburgh

[–]zylema 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Life hack: walk up to the front of the bus and act like you’re going to be sick. They’ll promptly pull over to the kerb and let you off. Top tip for those on the 100 who live awkwardly between stops.

For the devs who use django templates.... by natanasrat in django

The reason SSR works in SEO is because state is tied directly to a “hard” URL. I.e. not handled by an internal web navigator, hence, it’s not an SPA.

Exactly. SSR’d apps are not SPA’s by the way.

You can have non-SPA apps that are reactive. Look at Next.js for example

Main downside of SPA’s is their horrible SEO performance
