I can hit a solid 80
Without seeing the keyboard?
How?
Muscle memory ;]
on typeracer i'm usually 90 - 110 wpm
Yea you'd probably destroy me, bisk
that's at my desktop though

I'm 90 on a good day
yeah i think that one is mediocre for testing real world typing speed
we don't write in gibberish words with no structure
I can hit like 100 on that @unique warren
But that's because it's much easier
Also I can hit 110 if I know what I'm typing beforehand
ight @gentle moss https://play.typeracer.com?rt=j42g4kgwb
I'm probably around 85
but I could be a lot worse or a bit better
If bisk isn't around, I'll hop in
Sure
ouch
lol what cars raced just now?
79
God damn that was close
neato
I did really badly lol
i made a bunch of corrections
yeah you were lmao
hop in again so we can go all three
Link?
Same as before
Destroyed
holy shit I choked the beginning hard
damn, choked on the apostrophes
You'd imagine that my endless shitposting would've trained me more
Another one?
set and setting makes a big difference.
I'm in
Oh man, that was tough
99.2% accuracy
I started with like 40 WPM
My hands hurt now
I choked hard, I wrote a battle instead of just battle.
oof
Took me like two seconds to correct
I tried bruh couldn’t pass 60
you guys keeping an eye on your acc. too?
Nope
last for me.
@bleak rain nice gas mask
Oh what the hell, I was so bad that time
Especially the last half felt good
joined late, whoops.
I can't break 100 wpm goddamn
don't think i'll hit the 90's on this laptop keyboard
it's not what i'm used to
low travel keys feel weird.
I wish I hadn't bought this shitty keyboard for like 8 bucks
Good game, I'm out for now haha
o/
i use a rubber dome dell
I wonder how much faster I would bee with a 1337 keyboard with flashing lights
I'm using an uuuh "Deltaco"
™️
Large travel slows me down, to be honest
i don't find so
is there something cool that you could bind your numlock to btw
i also find it prevents key slip
Always thought it was a shame that it's left unused
I have my scroll lock bound to global colorcycling
I hit it and it toggles between dark and light themes
Editor + system + terms cycle
🤔
i forgot im in python
Got 2 shirts today
Hey everyone, any docker experts here?
My question is should I use docker-compose for a single container application?
I am thinking like this because it contains all the required info to run the container and I dont need to remember the whole long command to run the container
Yes, compose is still useful for that
Yep, use compose
okay. Thanks a lot.
I have one more question though.
I have been following the tutorial provided by docker desktop
and they have taught me about these two files
Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml
FROM node:12-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json yarn.lock ./
RUN yarn install --production
COPY . .
CMD ["node", "src/index.js"]```
version: "3.8"
services:
app:
image: node:12-alpine
command: sh -c "yarn install && yarn run dev"
ports:
- 3000:3000
working_dir: /app
volumes:
- ./:/app
environment:
MYSQL_HOST: mysql
MYSQL_USER: root
MYSQL_PASSWORD: secret
MYSQL_DB: todos
mysql:
image: mysql:5.7
volumes:
- todo-mysql-data:/var/lib/mysql
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: secret
MYSQL_DATABASE: todos
volumes:
todo-mysql-data:```
My question is..
does the compose depend on the dockerfile?
Because it looks like it doesnt
in this case, no
but this compose is suitable only for development, right?
only because of the yarn run dev I guess
it depends how your application is supposed to be deployed
Compose uses docker file
No it doesn't
Sorry it can
But if I would to build an image from dockerfile, then I wouldnt need to clone the repo
You can tell compose how to build the docker image
yeah but the dockerfile exists to build the container
you don't have the container if you just have the dockerfile
I know
so if I built the container and uploaded it
then downloaded it on the other machine, I wouldnt need the repo
yeah, you'd just need the compose file
yep
yeah true
which will also handle the downloading if you have the correct image specified
compose is needed
So I should actually use docker compose and tell it how to build the image, right?
code can sit in container all happy
volumes are for data that needs to be persisted, your code doesn't need to be persisted, there is nothing unique about it
update what?
live update
as I am writing the code
but I guess I shouldnt be using docker for that
yea
I should run yarn run dev normally
🤷
is there any reason?
I'm not going to tell you how to dev
any advantages?
but for prod, volumes introduce complexity
yeah
jakub, it's easy to run multiple versions of Node?
since you could have node 10 and Node 12 container running the same?
I've never done node, not sure how complex it can be
that would be one reason
but I dont see the point in making an app compatible with multiple node version when using a container
if you were microservicing
like microserviceA was written in Node 10 but MicroserviceB was written in Node 12
if you were updating B but need A, you could use Docker so you could have both running
yeah I get the point
so I should ommit the Dockerfile and only use docker-compose, right?
and tell it how to build th eimage
oh I see
context: .
dockerfile: twitch_checker.dockerfile```
but I cannot include the instructions directly in docker compose yml
I think you might be able to, I've always found it easier to give it a docker file
yeah true
since you might want to build a container outside docker compose
true
so you do best of both worlds
BTW, you can tell Docker-compose to build during up
Start-Process 'docker-compose' -ArgumentList 'up -d --build' -NoNewWindow -Wait
up -d --build
if the containers are already built, it should take 5 seconds for docker to just pull from cache so it's not a big deal to build every time

Can anyone help with vscode (please don't start an editor war). All my conda envs disappeared
@round zenith #tools-and-devops might be able to help you out on that, since it's specifically about VSCode and Anaconda
thanks
God i hope that's satire
It's funny how people ask questions with such simple answers
Lol
In this case, the answer is "It won't"
Facts
But she just changed that mans life
Imagine all that time spent loving her now all of a sudden she says I don't like you I just wanted you money
I mean, I don't think there's something inherently wrong with that, or rather there would be nothing wrong with that if they were clear from the start that they only want them for the money
The bad part is misleading people
I agree
It's sad how often it happens
I know a bunch of people that did similar things, and it's really upsetting
One (fairly obvious, when you think about it) pattern I've found is that it's often people whose primary trigger is status
Right, makes sense
Communication is the foundation for every healthy relationshiop
although I would argue that "I want them for their money" is already a bad start
like how shallow do you gotta be
Shes a strong woman who knows what she want
It is shallow and I don't get that, but as long as they're open about it, I wouldn't really judge them
you bet your ass I'm gonna judge them
That's fair
If I knew someone liked me for my phat stax then I'd be glad, I only need to keep the bags rolling
I would be extremely uncomfortable
Fair
bear in mind here
there are gender roles at play when it comes to this kind of thing
Right
toxic masculinity says that the man is the money-maker and should provide for the rest of the unit
but it's pretty widely known that the entire system of roles is rather unhealthy
toxic masculinity hurts everyone
When I started uni, we had a guy in our class who'd constantly complain about his girlfriend
It was pretty obvious that they don't have any real connection going on and the whole thing is extremely shallow
And although he was visibly dissatisfied, he'd do anything not to break things off, I assume it's because she fulfilled his needs for status, but I can't know for sure and I don't care that much
He got close to some other girl, kept showering her with affection, promised her he'll break up with his girlfriend (never did, obviously), the usual shebang
About a month later when the girl got sick of it and forced him to finally make up his mind, he predictably chose to stay with his girlfriend
Just yikes
It was sad to watch, really
He needs alone time
Not jacking off time but time to reflect on why is he so clingy
Or, well, he needed, since it's a lost cause now
Leading that girl on was a dick move
Definitely
“He needs alone time
Not jacking off time but . . .”

Hello!
im designing a logo, i want to know if you can see the animal
do you know what animal can this be?
I think it's a cyborg
Impressionistic Dalek.
minecraft cow
@sand goblet no XD, i wont say it i want to know what do you guys see
Or possibly a squid
wait i know
It's hard to say much without an idea of which way up it is
you thought you can trick me
i ll say it if someone has the answer XD
@crisp tangle Honestly, too much going on in the logo
but i guess i will have to change it because 4 told me diferent things
@rough sapphire ik but its funny haha
funny? I'm confused.
I think it's a cool Squid, but it doesn't really work as a logo
a few triangles and two squares?
@narrow pecan not a squid hahaha
Could be part of a train engine.
Maybe a spider then
Well, rotate it 90 degrees clockwise and it kind of looks like it could be a train engine.
So it must be a zebra
It really does. You're 100% right Opal
minecraft chicken
@spiral ridge WAHAHA
Minecraft creeper?
nope
A tomato?
it could be a slug
a money gun
it looks like those supreme money guns that shoots out money
I don't think it actually represents anything
A tomato?
@narrow pecan Scrap that. It has to be a tomato
yeah okay, I see it, but that's so.. no
Well, no
that was the first thing that came to my mind when i saw this, no joke
It's a zebra/tomato/slug/chicken/train engine/squid
How the fuck is that a giraffe?
Not a giraffe
@soft violet well i tried to make one
it also kkind of looks like a mosquito
Oof
Whatever it is, it's not a giraffe
Well, points for trying, but I think your giraffe may need a vet.
Yep
not a vet, a surgeon
okey, please be as rude as you want because im trying to make it so everyone can know
taking notes..
@soft violet OMG AHAHA
so i can be as rude as i want
@spiral ridge yes roast my logo hard
i feel bad, you seem like a nice guy
your commentaries make me understand if you can really understand the logo
giffrafe was the first thing i thought
thats the point
Ah...I actually kind of see it now.
so i guess it was good enough
so being rude doesnt matter
Wanna explain?
The two dots are the horns.
it kindof looks like a mos quito
@soft violet yes
is this logo for GiraffeSimulator on roblox or something
@spiral ridge LMAO 💀
well im making a bar for windows
idk if you know about
nexus bar
im gonna send a screen
thats nice
I got it
i want to achieve this, but i had to make a logo
so yh i was starting to mess with geometry XD
but overall, thats a good quality logo
For what?
looks professional
@narrow pecan you mean the bar or the logo?
@spiral ridge thanks, but i have to change it. You guys couldnt get it at first so yh gg wp
The logo
because my product needs a logo to be represented and a giraffe was kind of what i had in mind because the bar can be something like a representation of their necks XD yes i have a big imagination
Here we go
I hope you don't take that in a bad way
I just really felt like trying that
@narrow pecan XD wtf
JIRRAFE
yh i hate dat font
Microsoft giraffe
Hhaha yes
Okey, what animal do you see now?
hippo
@spiral ridge 💀
that's clearly a ninja
Panda
@sand goblet AHAHAHA
@ancient minnow oh well you are right wtf
Lol

maybe if i put it like this
@spiral ridge wtf 💀
Wait is it a panda or not?
@ancient minnow nope
Ohh

VINDOVS
@spiral ridge LMAO
i can see that
I like word the most
it looks more like a horse now?
@narrow pecan XD
We needed a few watermarks as well
Aww poor horse got his head chopped off
yes, the abstract art of the wword logo is very unique and artistic
why does the horse have 5 legs
We needed a few watermarks as well
@narrow pecan lmfao

f
how much does photoshop cost
no
Too much @spiral ridge
Nah
ok ill just use paint then
You could get the Affinity suite instead
Yea
Adobe is like fking expensive and doesnt give you anything that great
i like using pixel art
Well, it's the industry standard
i like using pixel art
@spiral ridge maybe use 16 by 16
Everyone uses it
Not 2 by 2 lol
wdym not 2x2
Everyone uses it
@narrow pecan yes but thats fkd up
Bcs adobe basically has monopoly
Yeah, it's a strange monopoly-ish
They dont even update their products that much
They dont even update their products that much
@ancient minnow if you look at Photoshop 2 years back and now maybe only the ui and a few tools
No major updates
Except for UI. That happens in Adobe XD
Its too bad companies still request adobe skills
Except for UI. That happens in Adobe XD
@narrow pecan oh yeah well even the ui hasnt updated lol
Its nearly 1 o clock in my country lol
Where are you from?
Netherlands
Sad
I cant ever fall correctly asleep
Sad
@narrow pecan yeah im hoping its just a fase or smth
Cracked?
yes i pirated it
Fbi open up
That's quite respectless to the developers really
Yes it is but if i had money i really would pay
Yeah, we don't discuss piracy here.
And a second thing the devs dont lose any money over it if you think about it. Because copying files doesnt require production moneym
Oh sirry
Sorry*
I personally sold newspapers by knocking on peoples' doors for years when I was 13-15 to make money for things like that
What rule is that @tame terrace? I couldn't find it
5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, be considered malicious/inappropriate or be for graded coursework/exams.
@tame terrace yh sorry
I was thinking of that at first, but he's not asking for help
it's not rule 5
1?
yes, rule 1

so, put those together and we generally don't like discussions about piracy
Perfect, thanks
Okay change of topic
Topic change: What's for dinner?
Yea im about to hit the nap so im not going to eat anything for some time
Whats oatgurt? Never heard of
It's basically like yoghurt, but made of oats instead of cow's milk
Ohh are you lactose intolerant or smth?
Oh i see
Oatgurt. Never heard of it.
Yea yogurts contain lots of sugar right?
You should give it a try some time
Well, depends on the type/flavour
This one is free of sugar
Yea but this one is not just yoghurt. Its oatgurt
Nope never felt like it
Is it much different from normal milk?
I mean the taste
It's different in some sense. I personally haven't drunk any cow's milk in ages, but in baked things, sauces and similar, I don't notice a difference
It feels quite fresh in some sense though
Ohh well thats something im gonna try out pretty soon then
hey speaking of vegans, is it for health reasons or moral reasons ?
I usually didn't drink cow's milk back in the days either. Just didn't like the taste. I like oat milk though, even though I don't drink it raw very often
Haha that actually turned out well
nice one
I usually didn't drink cow's milk back in the days either. Just didn't like the taste. I like oat milk though, even though I don't drink it raw very often
@narrow pecan oh cool is it more expensive than normal milk?
Im pretty unhealthy tbh lol. Havent drinked any milk in months
@silver trail I mostly don't see a reason to justify not being vegan. Animal agriculture is devastating for the environment and puts the world in risk of disease and other health issues from over use of antibiotics and such. On top of that, we have the health risks with eating meat and dairy products as well
Yes but here you have the prisoners dilemma.
Still, the most important reason to me is the ethical aspect. I really can't find a reason to systematically give birth to, feed and slaughter animals when we have great alternatives. What happens during the life of the animal really isn't pretty either
I mean being vegan only is VERY effective when everyone does it
The world could just be get so much better. More space would be freed up from growing plants to feed animals, we would be on our way to combat climate change and so many animals would be spared. On top of that, it just makes me feel better. My mind feels a lot clearer and I just feel all around better
As long as the biggest part eats meat, the vegans will miss some things others arent missing.
personally i just eat meat 1 day per week cuz its bad if its taken excessively
That's why i see it as a prisoners dilemma. Maybe im wrong lol.
Hamborgar
It's awesome to hear that you're limiting the amount of meat that you eat, really :)
yeah meat everyday also sucks tbh
Still, do you think that your taste buds are worth more than the life of an animal?
i like some veggies
Still, do you think that your taste buds are worth more than the life of an animal?
I mean humans have killed and eaten animals as long as they exist
It isnt a very strange thing that suddenly came up
Well, humans have been raping young girls for as long as they have existed
i think the bad part is if you kill just for fun or in an inhuman way
i mean plants are living creatures too
Killing for fun, is that equal to killing when it's unnecessary to you as well?
so its kinda wierd
Well, humans have been raping young girls for as long as they have existed
@narrow pecan for survival?
@ancient minnow If it's to survive, I'd eat meat as much as you or anyone. However, we live in the 21st century. We have a choice
But i think that as long as there wont come any laws which will forbid eating meat the overall of the population will keep doing it because of the prisoners dilemma.
People just like meat and they will continue eating it as long as it's not illegal
@ancient minnow If it's to survive, I'd eat meat as much as you or anyone. However, we live in the 21st century. We have a choice
@narrow pecan well i guess some people choose to eat meat i guess
Some individuals can stop eating it, but the impact is probably not huge
yeah exactly
@ancient minnow If it's to survive, I'd eat meat as much as you or anyone. However, we live in the 21st century. We have a choice
Yes but what i meant was. We did it for ages for survival. Suddenly stopping these routines is very discomfortable for many humans.
The impact per person is still as big. All change starts small and grows
And it's a very important source of calories if you live in a poor country
i think reducing the amount of meat taken is better than stopping it at one go as a first step
Of course @rough sapphire. I’m not talking from a poor country perspective now. At least I, and probably most other here who have phones/computers, have options
Yes the problem is we dont have 7 (forgot the name) like a cow, to digest all the plants we are eating all day
And in the economic sense?
There are countries that have meat production as a huge portion of their economies
This debate is probably a little unfair lol. One defending against 3.
He got good arguments thought
Animal agriculture is actually terrible for the economy. I suppose that you know about the huge funds that farmers receive from their states and things like the EU? That’s because of how unprofitable it is
Yes i also agree that his arguments are great
that kinda sucks
That's interesting i believe
Just pojnting out
The hard part is just typing fast enough at 1 am 😂
Are you sure that this is not just money to mantain the EU meat production competitive with the global markets?
Because USA subside agriculture too
But agricuture inject lots of money in the economy
The important part is how the money is spent. That exact money could’ve been spent on healthcare, sending help to poorer countries, reducing taxes and more
The tendency is that most sectors need subside
Growing plants doesn’t require those massive subsidies. It’s just much more profitable
Growing plants requires the shit from different animals
Are you sure about your point?
I mean animal aggricultute is a lot more than just meat
Probably not. If the demand for subsidies in agriculture decreases, they won’t keep throwing that much money to it. It’s a game of spending money where it’s needed
How you know that the need for subside in agriculture will decrease even with the global consumption rising?
@narrow pecan also if we would rely completely on plants then we could get into problems when having bad seasons
bad seasons with plants would impact meat production too since animals need to eat plants
Growing vegetables is a lot less costly than feeding animals vegetables and then eating the animals. If the costs rise so much in the future, they’d be drastically higher if we ate animals. That means cutting funds for things like healthcare, since meat tastes good
Hmmm tbh im not very fond of healthcare too. It causes the human race to deevolve
I don't think EU is cutting funds from other sectors to invest in the meat industry, they are subsiding the meat industry because is interesting for europe to compete in the market or because the economic consequences of not doing so can be devastating
man i am 19 and i have no idea what all is this about but i am really liking it 😂
Exactly @rough sapphire. Maybe I wasn’t clear enough with my point. I mean that the costs needed would still be lower if we substitute meat consumption for plants. And as a consequence, we don’t have to deal with a dilemma of “devastating consequences” or “improved healthcare”
Night. Nice chatting with you 👋
The devastating consequences are inevitable if you want to replace one sector with another
Unless you plan it very well
Planning is crucial and this won’t be some over night change. It’ll take time
Night. Nice chatting with you 👋
@narrow pecan thanks was nice chatting with you too
And european healthcare is very good
Governments have money to invest more in it if they want
Yep. Very true
That is the same thing as saying that exploring space removes money from exploring the earth
They are two completely separated sectors, investiment in one do not deprive investiment in the another
Still, that applies to whatever area is important. It’s just about not having to spend that money on animal agriculture
Your point can be used to justify the underfounding of every area of the economy
i am too young for this , i have games waiting for me 😆 it was a nice chat !
Well, it does. If we consider that we have $100 and $30 goes to food. If we spend $20 on food, we now have $10 extra to spare
That's not how economy works
Well, Economy 101 works kind of like that
Everything is intertwined, but the broad strokes remain the same
The subsides in one industry can be important for the economy because it create people jobs and movement the economy
That money will create other jobs and movement in the economy in other areas. It’s like the industrial revolution, but not as dramatic
I think we both have an actual not very deep level of how economy works thb
That is the point, you need to balance how much of the investiment go to each sector
Yep
And people will continue eating meat, if you underfound one sector of the economy you're destroying the jobs and opening space for other country to destroy the part that you didn't
Well, the transition will come gradually as people adapt a different mindset
Because the other country will continue being competitive in the sector, and without the subsides the sector can't compete with external agents
I see, but i don't think people will
If you consider global warming, gradual is not a good word
Remember that you're talking about changing people, and for that you need a lot of money
Well, people won’t change their habits over night and that’s just a fact. Whatever one can do to help is a step in the right direction
I think we should just go to mars and be happy
Either way, I need to go to sleep soon. It was really interesting discussing this with you. Feels like you have a willingness to ask questions and improve. I admire that
See you
thing. I moved the
thing. I moved the
How?
@silk frost

ayy i'm in the otnames again
Are you supposed to wash off face moisturiser before you sleep? (Idk how this stuff works)
that's all there is to it yep
o/
I've been trying to updating apps tru play store since yesterday, but its error
Error while checking updates
@narrow pecan how do you do that?
Me either. Only vim
@shell vapor can u make something like panels in vim? I mean, on the right side the code editor and left a terminal emulator
Yup. :vsplit or :hsplit to edit multiple files in panels. :terminal to open a terminal.
I know that I can just open two terminal window but isn't comfortable to have 2 separated windows opened in a 14"
you can also use tmux.... then all your apps support panels.
ah yes, the negotiator
Over the last 4/5 weeks I've gone from being pretty neutral about Skype/Zoom/Webex/Whatever calls - to now just absolutely dreading them
I hate them with a burning passion right now - whenever I have one coming up, it's almost a physical dislike towards the thought of having to sit through it
Apparently teachers over here hate remote learning, according to the news
Probably because they hate the calling I guess
video calls are just shit - it's so easy to get distracted
The only way they work wells is if it's actually one person showing someone else something
so you're both engaged on the same screen
just learn to send text messages god dammit
write a decent readme/git-issue/confluence page - or send a message on teams/Slack
and the world would be so much bloody better
I just had a 90m chunk of them - and in 20m I have another 60m chunk of them
just kill me
i get massive amounts of anxiety in video calls (and calls in general). so usually i need to let my mind settle down for like an hour after any online classes. luckily, i only had three classes in the 4 months that school was still "open" so it wasn't so bad.
I never used to have a problem with them, now I just despise them
I don't really get the point of video calls
For some things they can be nice - but for the most part, they're just terrible
I'm talking about face to face video calls, not screensharing
like - if you know the person and it's a casual two way chat, it can be an improvement (over just normal voice chat)
Yea, I can see that, but for things like classes it just doesn't make sense
Yeah - I agree
Classes being live just doesn't make any sense - record the damn things
Eh, I understand live classes - you can interact with the prof, but why do you need to show your face? Doesn't really make sense
It should be optional, at the least
my teacher told me that he doesn't feel like anybody is paying attention when they haven't got a camera on, but at least he didn't make it required.
Really? Guess I'm an outlier, than
to be fair, i find that it does help to have somebody talking to me directly, since i find it a little easier to pay attention than if i was just being talked at by somebody in a pre-recorded video
because i can't pause a live chat
"oh hang on, i need to do <some unrelated, procrastination-y thing> since my attention span is too shallow for you"
just doesn't happen. :D
I think that's more of a problem with the nature of the videos though. Very few lectures/lessons have 1 hour on 1 topic. Most things could be broken down into more digestible 3-20 minute chunks
and those are very consumable in video form
then you can facillitate the question asking by having more smaller live calls
sure, my computer science teacher spends most of the lessons talking about unrelated shit. "does anybody here play an instrument?" no fuck off we're not playing for you.

Is the traditional lecture dead? Professors Mike Merrifield and Phil Moriarty - both from the University of Nottingham - have differing views. More links and info below ↓ ↓ ↓

but my teacher is definitely unable to make something short and concise
he literally rambled about the queen when we were supposed to be learning about protocols
That sucks
I think there's a rule that says Computer Science teachers in the UK just have to be utter shit
one of mine is actually decent
Genuinely, there's so much stuff my A-Level CS teacher taught me that's just wrong
e.g that O notation isn't important
despite the fact
Ha
it's on the fucking exam
what a twat
hate him
(that's an aside though, carry on)
the other two teachers of mine are.. interesting. one literally doesn't know anything beyond the textbook (and even then, i've had to correct her on something as simple as the difference between compilers and interpreters). the other is the one i mentioned, who spends most of the time talking about unrelated stuff and knows he's doing it.
i've had to correct her on something as simple as the difference between compilers and interpreters
Ooh, that's bad
yup, she got them the wrong way round and then consulted the textbook when i mentioned it to her.
she took it well though, so i'm not too bothered haha
How does one get hired knowing that little? Quite confusing
Something I found misleading
Was that people used to tell me how important endianness was
There's a massive lack of qualified CS teachers in the UK - my old school couldn't find anyone remotely suitable. And the shitty one I had who was qualified because he'd been a software dev for 10 years, was incompetent as shit
In the last 15 years I've had to care so little about endianness that I hardly remember what the difference is
haha
my school has 6 computer science teachers. one is exceptional but i don't have him for my A-levels, two at least know what they're doing, and the other three haven't a fucking clue about anything.
6? Why so many?
idk there's like 200 members of staff
My middle sized school, ~1200 students total, had 2
it's a bit silly haha
i see
In fairness, the PE, Business, and IT departments all had one head
so
they didn't exactly care about IT
haha yikes
if they lumped it in with PE and business
meanwhile my school's "head teacher" isn't the top of the staff hierarchy
because there's an executive head teacher who is the top staff of like 15 schools round here.
not sure how the hell that works but sure.
to be fair, some of the teachers in my school really are outstanding.
so i can't really complain that there's a few useless ones in there

@undone berry> There's a massive lack of qualified CS teachers in the UK - my old school couldn't find anyone remotely suitable. And the shitty one I had who was qualified because he'd been a software dev for 10 years, was incompetent as shit
@undone berry same :))
but mine is on a different location in the world
-- Hm, there's a feature that's not implemented yet, what should we do?
-- Create a giant red popup every time you type something!
-- Sounds promising
Atom being Atom?
wait this seems nice
Huh atom seems good for haskell
i want this GUI lol
It literally shows a few popups every time you step
VSCode has a plugin as well, huh
I love the general interface of Atom, but this one thing just freaks me out a little bit
I guess atom is a good replacement for, like, sublime text
Or maybe I could use the Telegraph feature one day
i used Atom for like, idk, 5 days until it OOMd my box, so I opted out lol
I reserved 12 GB of swap for compiling some haskell tools (because I only have 4 GB of RAM)
and then I accidentally did
with open("/dev/urandom", "rb") as file:
print(file.readlines())
oh boy lol
and when in got to the SSD part of the memory, it became... a little frozen
Well, at least it didn't give me a god damn popup
HLS distributes binaries now 
took so long to compile they're just done 🙂
Idris just has a little extension for Atom and VSCode, it seems
I wonder if HLS is gonna be as stable as HIE in the near future, with near future as in 2 or 3 months
Also GHC 8.8.4 has been released so I think that may solve some compilation problems
I'm actually just procrastinating from learning urwid
I'm just procrastinating, period
Well, I didn't say that learning urwid wasn't procrastination in itself.
It's like a linked list.
it's something like Discord -> Idris -> urwid -> Haskell -> my actual project
Works for me
@undone trellis One of the best resources for learning JS out there is https://javascript.info/
thanks
A lot of tutorials focus on older styles but this one takes into account all the modern functionality and sensibilities
And is updated nearly daily in attempts to finetune it to be the best it can be
Good idea to learn JS, web dev is huge these days
I'd learn it if my plate wasn't so full
Plus there's something incredibly satisfying about developing something that you can so easily see the results of your work
Python is great but I kinda want to learn some new stuff
Some people said Python is slow
Tbh not that slow, doesn't really bother me
Thank you, I'll look into it tomorrow
Yeah Python is slow in some aspects, but fast in others. Just like anything, there's tradeoffs
👍 I'm actually going through it again myself
I try to go through tutorials of languages periodically so I can try to retain some knowledge from them
I do the same with Python from time to time as well, although I don't need to nearly as often
There's a lot we can do to speed up Python algorithms, but they involve external libraries and deep understanding of algorithms and vectorization
Or writing all the heavy lifting bits in other languages while using Python to call those optimized bits
(which is what those other libraries have done for us, in most cases)
i finally figured out why my minecraft was failing miserably: it was because of 'Slight' GUI Modifications
I need to learn about some new libraries
I am sure there are some great ones out there I am not leveraging yet
Hi. I was looking for some help regarding powerlevel10k. Could you please help me with this error in my terminal?

Did this dude really spam his question on all channels
I think he did @errant wyvern
Or just ask in a relevant channel from the Topical Chat area
oh hey
google's launched their new social network
Wasnt that already possible with Snapchat?
what's a snapchat
lol
Google Maps is pretty much the go-to app for navigation these days
That's a weird way of spelling OsmAnd, which offers offline maps and uses OpenStreetMap: https://osmand.net/ / https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap
I can't stand using Google for navigation. They've moved towards this thing where their interface doesn't want to teach me where I'm going, but rather would prefer to lead me around by the nose. It's hard to articulate how its changed over time but I no logner enjoy it.
Also, its objectively bad design. There should be minimal interface the moment I start driving, but instead, it constantly wants to think that every touch of the screen is the desire to reroute or something.
And then I can't escape feeling like its trying to lead me to go shopping rather than getting me where I'm trying to go.
And yeah. TLDR, I just dont use GPS anymore. I would have to be desperately lost to even consider it. Instead, I study maps before I leave, and then go.
To be honest, all these types of tools are more and more becoming the sorts of things that suckers use.
And it will only get worse.
k..kool!
No
it is closed
can u say
if my spotify is synced
i wanna see if it is
just say the name of the song
I need serious input on something.
Should I use twitter?
There are many different pros and cons to using Twitter.
Twitter provides a good platform to build a community, and connect with people.
But at the same time, twitter is can be very toxic, especially twitter replies.
I'd like informed opinions on this topic.
is this a homework essay?
@rough sapphire After being on Twitter for not that long, I'd say you probably shouldn't do it. The platform just seems to get more toxic every day. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places, but it's been a bad experience for me overall and I'm not even following drama users.
I end up getting linked to a lot of twitter threads by co workers and have gotten the same sense, but I would add that there are specific niches where twitter is a huge part of the community and might make it worth joining. Science twitter, for example, is a weirdly big deal
Yes, this is one of the biggest cons I've noticed
@surreal tusk can you elaborate on specific niches, what does that look like?
Admittedly, I really only have experience with science twitter and am extrapolating the existence of that community to assume that other, similar, communities exist. For science twitter, twitter has become a forum for live discussion about papers. PIs or their lab members will tweet out a new publication/preprint and several threads will grow discussing the paper or it's connection to other work in the field. It's a pretty good way of understanding how knowledge within a field is being built and connected. You can find essentially the same information in various review papers that come out a few times a year but I find that much less intuitive or organic compared to twitter threads. The 'go down the rabbit hole' tendency of twitter, which can make drama end up in just a cacophany of horror, moslty works to the advantage of the discussion in this case and only occassionally leads to a cacophany of horror
I see, thank you! This is super informative
@rough sapphire no, it's not a homework essay
Hey, Which spotify playlists do you think is amazing?
Yeah! @bleak rain Thanks
And for reading times?
Like background sounds to make you not bored while reading some long documentations
I never use actual Playlist functionality
It's just a library of my music
I am extremely picky with what songs to play when
So do I
So I am unable for the music to run its course
Now listening Brain food and kinda bored
Not much lyrics, soothing, raining, coffee times
Ah I know just the artist
Like cool breeze blowing, not letting you sleep, lol
Well, first of all, chet bakers stuff
His slow songs are real smooth
But for my favourite artist of all time..
Ight! Who is it?
Lol i like that name, sleepy fish
Especially beneath the waves and my room becomes the sea
It is isn't it
Yeahhhh
I fall in love, too easily~~
I fall in love, too fast..
I fall in love, so terribly hard
For love to ever last
My heart should be well schooled
Stand against love
Because Ive been fooled in the past
Be a programmer... make your pc, your gf
The lyrics..amazing
Lol, I was just playing around
But still I fall in love too easily
