Not for long if Lennart has anything to say about it, I’m sure.

While DRM is the bane of everybody there are cases where trust and integrity is important and it’s an intriguing look into how hard it is to manage.
Nah, when the user wants to ensure trust and integrity in his own system, it works just fine. The problem comes when the user who needs to be able to access the data is simultaneously the adversary who needs to be stopped from accessing the data.
In other words, it’s one of those situations where the fact that it’s hard to manage is a gigantic clue that it’s wrongheaded to try to do so in the first place.
According to the Open Source Initiative (the folks who control whether things can be officially certified as “open source”), it basically is the same thing as Free Software. In fact, their definition was copied and pasted from the Debian Free Software guidelines.
Edit: wait… return ! 0 ; wtf
I mean, returning non-zero exit status on error is just good practice. It even managed to evaluate to the same numerical value as EXIT_FAILURE
when I tested it on my machine (gcc 11.4.0 linux x86-64), although I’m not sure if that’s always the case or if it’s undefined behavior.
This cursed code is quite well-written.
Yes, as are n
and i
. Do they not deserve ‘fleekness?’
I have a similar issue (also Firefox on [K]ubuntu 22.04) every time I open a link on a logged-in site in a new tab, but in my case merely refreshing the page is enough to get me logged back in.
I assume is most likely the fault of the fairly aggressive mix of extensions I’m running rather than Firefox itself, but I haven’t actually tried to troubleshoot it yet.
Pro tip: the arguments to main()
don’t have to be named argc
and argv
.
Also, you forgot to #define an alias for atoi
, and number
, n
, and i
could’ve been named something more on fleek.
Wanting shit to be properly categorized isn’t oppression. Your take is flat-out idiotic.
The name made me think it was made by the same company that makes these.
My title was intentionally flipant.
No, your title was rude and condescending. “Flippant” is a different thing.
Sometimes there is so much configuration options a GUI would scare most users.
Or if it didn’t, it would be because the dev limited the options displayed so much that it would cease to be useful for most users. (This is especially true when different users are likely to use different subsets of options rather than having the majority of them using the same subset.)
Trust me, you don’t want to be trying to maintain legacy Jython code at this point, let alone use it for anything new. All the “normal” Python infrastructure like Pip etc. has moved on and broken compatibility, so you’d have to find and maintain locally the last working compatible version of every single package you use. I suppose you could use Java libraries, but the impedance mismatch trying to use LBYL explicitly typed stuff in EAFP python is terrible. It’s just a horrible mess.
is Jython still a thing?
No. (Source: I had to try to keep its zombie corpse shuffling along at my last job.)

“Very dark. Likely be eaten by grue.”
My text editor doesn’t access shit on my drive (unless I ask it to) because it’s Free Software and my Linux distro package maintainers audit it to make sure it doesn’t contain malware like that.
You’re praising a pathological solution to a problem that shouldn’t exist to begin with.
What do you mean, “most?” Electron apps are the vast minority of desktop apps.
US, mid thirties, and I not only drive a manual transmission, I go out of my way to insist upon it. For example, I own a truck and an SUV made in the '90s because it’s difficult to find newer ones without an automatic.
