[rough sapphire]

In the languages of South India, nine is 'almost ten'; ninety, 'almost hundred'; 900, 'almost thousand'

[rough sapphire]

Which one?

[versed saffron]

[rough sapphire]

The Hindu-Arabic numerals, they're called

The 'Arabic numerals' are a different one

used in written Arabic

[versed saffron]

"They are also called Western Arabic numerals, Ghubār numerals,[4][unreliable source?] ASCII digits, Western digits, Latin digits, or European digits.[5] The Oxford English Dictionary uses lowercase Arabic numerals for them, and capitalized Arabic Numerals to refer to the Eastern digits.[6]"```

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_numerals

[rough sapphire]

The term is often incorrectly used to mean decimal numbers, in particular when contrasted with Roman numerals. Decimal however was developed centuries before the Arabic numerals in the Indian subcontinent, using other symbols. In addition Arabic numerals are used for many purposes besides writing decimal. All sets of symbols used to write decimal are sometimes called Hindu-Arabic numerals.

The book that Al-Biruni (source for 'Arabic numerals' ) wrote is named 'Kitab hisab al-'adad al-hindi' 'book on calculation with numerals of Hind', for some historical context

something the language designers at together c and c++ discussed recently

Guys how to rice the i3

[small coral]

when i asked them "is it plausible to have this" ```lua
2x + x = 30
print(x)

[maiden prairie]

Pls teach me

[graceful basin]

CAS tend to be fairly complex

but well, mathematica does have this feature IIRC

and IIRC matlab can also do it with some early declarations

prolog can do this, oz maybe can do this

[acoustic moss]

like, any arbitrary expression on the lhs of an assignment?

[graceful basin]

it's a bit involved in the case of prolog

simple things it just figures out

?- 2*X+X #= 30
.
   X = 10
;  false.

[acoustic moss]

wha

[graceful basin]

for more complex cases, you get a constraint, which you can then convert into actual values using labeling

?- X^2 #= 4.
   clpz:(X in-2\/2)
;  false.
?- X^2 #= 4, label([X]).
   X = -2
;  X = 2
;  false.

[acoustic moss]

why does it say false

[graceful basin]

because it tries to search for more solutions, and finds none

[acoustic moss]

oh

ic

[graceful basin]

if you run it programatically, it won't show that false

but I essentially get the option to ask for more solution, so it only knows to stop when it finds no more

[acoustic moss]

i thought it was saying x = 10 is a false statement

[graceful basin]

no, it means the valuation of variables in the query is X = 10 ; false, in other words, X is 10, or false

; is or, , is and

[acoustic moss]

[frozen crane]

What makes a past tense form "proper"?

[nocturne venture]

is it possible to label a commit on github like a micro-release?

i guess i'm looking to tag a commit on the github website

[wraith hound]

ummm

I think you can just create a tag

hmm maybe not

I know there's a prerelease flag

[nocturne venture]

the only thing i found is the draft release thing, but not how to add tags to specific commits..

[wraith hound]

what's your use case?

can you not just use the commit hash/id/whatever it's called?

[nocturne venture]

i want to be able to quickly find the commit again in the history

[wraith hound]

uhhhh

[nocturne venture]

like "look how broken this was after xmas 2021"

[wraith hound]

I'm pretty sure you could make a release and delete the release and the tag will still be thee

I'm sure there's another way to make a tag though, let me look

[nocturne venture]

thanks

[frozen crane]

as I was saying, language predates formal pronouncements about what language use is "proper". These pronouncements are linguistically meaningless, but might influence public opinion about language or how it's taught in schools.

I assume you were referring to "gaslit" vs "gaslighted". In English, there's a class of verb where you change the tense by changing the vowels in the middle. This class is shrinking in favor of the "-ed" class because those are easier to predict, so people who don't know "light" becomes "lit" will intuitively say "lighted".

[graceful basin]

gaslit seems way more common, though it also the name of a TV series, and an adjective unrelated to gaslighting

[versed saffron]

Gaslight also refers to the light produced by heating gas, couldn’t gaslit also be an adjective?

Gaslit hallways

Or would that be gas-lit

[versed saffron]

I more so meant grammatically

[frozen crane]

does "grammatically" change what I said? grammar is part of language, and predates formal pronouncements, etc.

[versed saffron]

Idk what I’m talking about

[frozen crane]

"lit" has been a recognized past-tense form of "light" longer than "lighted", but both forms will be understood by any English speaker.

"lighted" also doesn't introduce any ambiguity into the parse tree

[graceful basin]

ye, that's the dictionary meaning

did dictionaries record gaslight in the new meaning yet?

[versed saffron]

Pretty sure

[quick ledge]

gas-lot

[mild abyss]

what happened to yoda

[frozen crane]

that reminds me: dictionaries don't legitimize words, either. if a word was only legitimate if a dictionary documents it, the first dictionary could never have been written, there having been no legitimate words for it to contain. (Not that I think you're trying to make this argument.)

wearing formal clothing is the worst. especially the shoes. my feet hurts so bad 😒

y cant i just wear joggers and hoodie everywhere ugh

also it's so hard to drive with these shoes lol

[thick osprey]

Driving in those are a nightmare. I kept a pair of sneakers in the car for the drive.

Have you had them cobbled? Getting them adjusted to fit better makes a night and day difference in life. Especially if you have to wear them all day.

[lost vortex]

I havent. I am gonna look into getting them cobbled because im sure ill be wearing these more often now 😰

so they adjust the shoes depending on how your foot is structured?

[thick osprey]

An actual cobber will have some ideas and, depending on the shoe, can make adjustments, yes. Just like a tailor for your attire. Nothing fits better than something tailored to you.

Worst that happens is the cobbler looks at you with a forced smile and suggests a better pair of shoes. LOL ((totally happened to me))

[clear plume]

Now try walking in heels

[thick osprey]

Heels are hell if the she doesn't fit, but heck they are powerful.

[lost vortex]

i wonder if heels can be cobbled?

they pretty tho

[thick osprey]

Some can, some can't. Just like dress shoes and sneakers and boots. Depends on the materials.

[clear plume]

True. And they add a feeling of power so

You get that solid click in a good stride. ooof. p o w e r

strange ngl but alright

[harsh tundra]

... Why

Even if you want to have eg only stuff in other scripts, then some ascii is still needed - numbers, punctuation...

Eg 'Это.' See the dot. This one little dot will make it not possible

[small coral]

then it should be a normal string

u"..." = unicode string
a"..." = ASCII string
au"..." = "..." = normal string

[small coral]

another image showing its development (now has the correct output and offset for multiple-line strings)

[harsh tundra]

Wtf

How would Unicode string work then? As in: where it would be used? You basically never have non-ascii unicode strings. Even a simple space is ascii!

[small coral]

it's there for a reason i don't see other than giving the u prefix an actual use that isn't entirely shadowed by normal strings

[gritty zinc]

well, the reason python has u is because of its dark python2 past where bytestrings were the default and you had to opt-in for unicode strings

[small coral]

i know

[harsh tundra]

But why do you need this prefix at all? "it's there so u prefix has use" is no reason to make a feature

[small coral]

so i'll just keep it there for a really rare use case

The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters

Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than right now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

hey so if anyone here has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm starting IB next year, and need to chose my classes, but I have a small problem. I'm moving next year (so, halfway into the program) and subsequently what school I'm going to. I have a list of about 15 countries that I might possibly be moving to, and a list of schools offering IB in each of those countries, but I don't know what to do because some classes might be offered at my current and not offered in other schools

I have a meeting with my IB coordinator next week, but until then, I'm wondering if anyone has any clue on what I should do, as I don't know what classes I can take that could transfer over

[thick osprey]

Sweet. Got this bookmarked now too.

[honest star]

ooooh, I like I like

[honest star]

Can you do like a quick analysis of what's the most commonly offered? Either within the possibilities of where you're moving or just like... in general?

[dense tangle]

mybe u can check websites of the schools u may go to, to see if what u want available

[clear plume]

Thats probably the best thing I can do, so yeah im going to try and find the most common ones offered at the schools I am most likely to go to

I am also slightly worried about transfering credits. Whern my sister was in school it was a nightmare, and she knew where she was going, so I dont know how easy it is going to be to do last minute

I'm curious, what package managers do you recommend besides apt on Ubuntu? There are so many options, I don't know what's the right way now. (I recently installed Linux brew for my server). But maybe I should use snap? It's such a mess though. Snap/apt. With Manjaro it was all neatly organized into one (or actually 2) package managers.
@merry wren snap is kind of my only gripe with Ubuntu, and I'd never really suggest using it... on Manjaro, there's only one real package manager and that's pacman

you're probably thinking of Manjaro's God-awful AUR helper, pamac

[merry wren]

ahh yeah, indeed

brew/snap/apt

[latent scaffold]

brew is for macOS

[merry wren]

linux brew is a thing nowadays

[latent scaffold]

I've never heard of that, and I don't think I'd ever go near it

[merry wren]

i used it last week for getting the Gitlab cli on my server

[latent scaffold]

Personally, the AUR is not worth as much hype as it gets

like sometime's it's convenient but like

1. I honestly didn't use it that much
2. It's a bit annoying when different packages are not up-to-date

a good example is Discord, because whenever Discord is out-of-date on the AUR then you're kind of out of luck

you're forced to manually install which is especially annoying on Arch because there's no prebuilt package

Discord only has .deb, .rpm, and .tar.gz — So in this case, it'd actually probably be easier to download Discord on Ubuntu/Fedora/openSUSE rather than Arch or other distros

[merry wren]

I probably should try Fedora at some point. I think Torvalds uses it as his daily driver. Big community. It's probably really good too.

[latent scaffold]

I've been a big fan of openSUSE for a good while

as in like... at least a year or two lol

I personally am not a fan of how opinionated Fedora feels, since they like to push a lot of stuff from RedHat

so things like GNOME get priority

which is annoying, because I prefer to use KDE Plasma

[merry wren]

Hmm.. redhat

Yea, KDE is awesome

[latent scaffold]

and the release cycle is also a little funky

[merry wren]

hey, about brew and linux brew

on macos brew is really great

i think linuxbrew will be good on linux too. (same team, afaik)

..

do you run KDE at this moment?

[latent scaffold]

I'm using KDE Plasma as we speak, yes

on openSUSE Tumbleweed

[rough sapphire]

Eh, it seems straightforward but idk if there’s anything that I’m not considering

[latent scaffold]

[merry wren]

i use tmux + iterm2 tabs now

another level to switch around it... hihih

[latent scaffold]

I hardly ever have multiple terminals open

and if I do, I just tile them next to each other

and Alacritty looks pretty nice tiled

[merry wren]

omg. i love alacritty too btw

almost nobody knows about it, i'm surprised you use it

it's probably different with linux users though, but on macos it's def a niche thing

..

for me, nothing renders quicker than alacritty. it's so perfect, it just looks better too

[latent scaffold]

Alacritty ends up being one of the more popular terminal emulators

some people will use other things like Kitty or Konsole

just discovered this gem

teaser:

an impossibly large buffer error is like a criminal who breaks into your house, sprinkles sand atop random bedsheets and toothbrushes, and then waits for you to slowly discover that your world has been tainted by madness. Indeed, the common discovery mode for an impossibly large buffer error is that your program seems to be working fine, and then it tries to display a string that should say “Hello world,” but instead it prints “#a[5]:3!” or another syntactically correct Perl script, and you’re like WHAT THE HOW THE, and then you realize that your prodigal memory accesses have been stomping around the heap like the Incredible Hulk when asked to write an essay entitled “Smashing Considered Harmful.”

on the other hand:

Make no mistake, I don’t want to write systems software in a language like C++. Similar to the Necronomicon, a C++ source code file is a wicked, obscure document that’s filled with cryptic incantations and forbidden knowl- edge. When it’s 3 A.M., and you’ve been debugging for 12 hours, and you encounter a virtual static friend protected volatile templated function pointer, you want to go into hibernation and awake as a werewolf and then find the people who wrote the C++ standard and bring ruin to the things that they love.

[acoustic moss]

[gritty zinc]

i wonder if this guy is still alive and how they feel about Rust

I’m glad that you enjoyed “The Night Watch” :-). Regarding the best programming languages for systems building (and teaching systems building), I do think that it’s still useful to teach people C. Learning C is a good way to understand the interface between the hardware, the operating system, and higher-level applications. However, I don’t think that C should be the first language that people learn. For that, I recommend Python.

With respect to new systems languages, I think that Rust and Go are promising. At this point, I don’t know if the universe needs an additional version of C++. In fact, it might be interesting to teach a systems class using just C and Rust/Go, and not use C++ at all.

Hiya 👋 My mom is trying to figure out what kind of cable she needs for her old camera. Does anyone recognize this plug?

[solemn leaf]

Firewire

[floral apex]

There's probably a play on words with "jolo" involving YOLO

[acoustic moss]

command line takes like 4 seconds for me

[dull turtle]

The truth is, I dislike ads and do whatever I can to block them at all costs, but android's forced ads are terrible.

[last mantle]

what forced ads exactly

[dull turtle]

Any ads against your will, especially the youtube app

[last mantle]

in the OS? or the apps?

[dull turtle]

apps

I sometimes don't want to see stupid ads from liberty mutual/more companies

and I can't block them

specifically

on android

or iOS if I used the youtube app

hence the only option is an adblocker

I wish there was an option to block certain ads

[last mantle]

lol kinda obvious that yt will have ads

its their source of revenue

[dull turtle]

Right, but I want to choose what ads I'd like to see instead of them choosing for me

Interests do nothing to stop it

[gritty zinc]

if only there was some alternative youtube app, for android, that blocks ads... if only... :p

[dull turtle]

I use a youtube front-end now, but yeah.

[last mantle]

well, consider yourself lucky to have stock android/ pixel UI

[dull turtle]

I used to have an android, but the phone got older so I switched to a slightly cracked iPhone XR -__-

[last mantle]

can't say a lot about iOS

[dull turtle]

iOS focuses on "privacy" but doesn't block ads

so I use adguard pro

on it

I wish there was a better option

[gritty zinc]

in your local network, you can solve it with a pihole

[dull turtle]

I need a raspberry pi which I have yet to obtain

And my parents would ask what the heck am I doing

[gritty zinc]

technically you just need anything that runs constantly, but yeah, probably a pi

[clever turtle]

Have I been a baud girl? ono

[thick osprey]

owo oh no

[thin cloak]

Lol baud at what rate

[tardy rain]

dont you hate it when you ask people more than one question and they only answer the first one

[dapper dew]

Do you hate it when they don't answer, but reply with another question?

[tardy rain]

im starting to hate my colleagues and i dont know what to do about it

[thin cloak]

Not a good sign ....maybe you need to bring up the issue tactfully rather than letting it simmer

[harsh tundra]

Start numbering the questions

[tardy rain]

theres no nice way of letting people know they should follow etiquette or be more detailed in their questions

people will take it the wrong way

there's this one person here that's been here for 6 years that always replies with "huh?" whenever i ask a question

how do you correct this without sounding like an asshole

[acoustic moss]

ha

[thin cloak]

More detailed in their questions sounds reasonable...but maybe they are end users who dont know how to formulate these questions...maybe some orientation or internal training may help

[tardy rain]

theyre not end users, they've been doing this for 6 years, they should know this shit already

[last mantle]

lol

[tardy rain]

how am i, with my 5 months experience, supposed to train these people, that have been here for 6 years now

[thin cloak]

Turn to your manager and suggest that training to improve productivity

[tardy rain]

btw my official title is "Technical Graduate Trainee", im the one that should be trained here

mfw i gotta handhold people with 10x my experience

[thin cloak]

Like rain on your wedding day...ironic

[thin cloak]

Maturity doesnt exactly match chronological age or experience

Push for the training if it is needed

Say it is a refresher

[tardy rain]

some more context, its a small startup of 10 people in the offices here
not sure how i can push for training without sounding like a jackass

[acoustic moss]

ask the other question(s) again

if theyre being annoying annoy them back

and most of all

[tardy rain]

it gets so tiring

[acoustic moss]

dont take career advice from a 17 yo on the internet

[low chasm]

Take advice from a 15 year old named Aboo instead

||/s||

[thin cloak]

Be nice and suggest it is needed to your boss frame it as not about correcting personal defects but enhancing teamwork and productivity...

[tardy rain]

what would this training look like

i dont think people would take it well if we got them into "how to ask a question" training, theyre grown ass people

[solemn leaf]

says a 17 yo

[thin cloak]

Say it is about enhancing teamwork and collaboration...give a hypothetical work scenario but flip roles...let the other person feel what is it from the other end

So next time they will have empathy

Your Employees Will Love
making big promises here

[tardy rain]

I'd rather suppress these hateful feelings until they overflow and some day i throw my chair at one of my colleagues

Also gotta hit the gym in preparation for that day

[thin cloak]

Yeah they all do lol...sometimes they work sometimes they dont take with a grain of salt...many management consultants have a business actually selling these trainings and make big bucks.

[thin cloak]

Not healthy except for the gym part..

One time my employer actually forced us to attend one of these at great expense...whether it was worth it or not that is hard to gauge but it did give some fresh perspective to some of those that participated

No magic bullets

[tardy rain]

Need some kind of emotional outlet

I should pick up boxing

[acoustic moss]

gardening

[dapper dew]

This could also be your outlet

[thin cloak]

Try art maybe and if you get good at painting or photography you can quit your job

Maybe a side business even

[mild abyss]

take career advice from retired people

oh wait
