Fun fact: in rust and python, they use “selfself” instead of “meme”

Sure, do recommend - I’d need a basic overview, but not too deep, as I don’t have enough motivation for in-depth review of all socialist governments in the last two centuries.
To be honest, I know little about Mao and beginnings of PRC - I’m quite ignorant about how much of an “absolute leader” he was.
But I do believe that idolizing a person and concentration of power are dangerous to democracy.
And it’s interesting how much responses I got on this topic.
I would say that Hungary is currently quite authoritarian. And Serbia too. Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy were too, very much so.
Any language feature with such a long definition is a bad language feature.
The less such features, the better the language.
Thus, javascript is not a “good” language for expressing your programs.
Socialism dies as soon as a single person becomes its absolute leader. From there, it is just a walk toward authoritarism.
Dronies? Is this an evolution of takies? A subspicies?
Have you erased the continuation of the message that is saying something about “similar names, but are actually two distinct types”?
It is a common error if you have two dependecies that export the same third dependency and your code makes an assumption that the versions of the third dep match.
All other languages either straight-up don’t support multiple versions of the same dep, or throw random errors at runtime. So this message is a consequence of rust supporting things that other langs only dream of.
Apparently, PHP has a low threshold for making something an “official” api
Gender PHP extension is a port of the gender.c program … The main purpose is to find out the gender of firstnames.
As of why, you don’t need a why in open source. Some people treat gender as a function of their firstname, apparently, and need that information somewhere - maybe for localization, maybe for personalization, maybe for form-filling auto-suggestion purposes.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•what debugging regex feels like
9·9 months agoIf I have a complex regular expression to code into my app, I write it in pomsky, then copy paste the compiled regex to my source file, but also keep the pomsky source nearby. Much more maintainable.




Report reason: I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
I do find it funny though :D
