Looks like the kidnapper also stole the null terminator for this string!

Any context on him “trashing his reputation”?

That definitely wasn’t the case for this small-town library.

About ten years back, I had moved away from home and was living in a small town with no Internet in my apartment. The only internet connection I had was the local library.

I remember being so surprised at the amount of viruses on those dumb computers. I wondered what the heck people were doing to them to get them in that state, and then one time I saw some dude looking up porn and just downloading whatever programs the pages he came to told him to.

Anyway, I’m glad I have Internet in my apartment now.

Honestly, you ever tried to look back through a long thread on Discord? It’s impossible. If you want to read the original message that started the thread, good luck, you’ll be scrolling all day and may never get there. How anyone can claim that’s “easy to use” is beyond me.

Discord works for quick discussions happening right now, and that’s it.

Don’t forget to upload them all to crates.io. Add them to the list of useless crates that no one will ever use.

I don’t really get why we need social media elements in GitHub at all

Anyone got a non-paywalled link?

Oh, is this what they meant by “commenting your code”?

Why the heck does it need to be dynamically allocated? Just put that puppy on the stack.

I would argue that in this case the maintainers are in the wrong for not even responding to the issue, not the reporter responding with memes.

I’ve seen this same thing happen with Python’s type hints. Turns out giving an “escape hatch” type for devs who have no clue what the type actually is leads to a lot of useless type hints.

Wow, I’m really disappointed, it’s just full of posts from parody accounts with people in the comments not realizing it isn’t real.

Bet you $50 we later learn this guy was orchestrating a supply chain attack.

Cheaper? Yes, I guess so, depending on how you measure cost. More useful? Absolutely disagree.

So this actually came up recently for me. I wanted to get spoons the same size as the ones I used as a kid to eat cereal, so I ordered some dessert spoons. Turns out, what I actually used as a kid was a teaspoon. My wife was confused when I said the dessert spoons weren’t the right size though, since that is the size of spoon she always used to eat cereal growing up.

Also I believe California has laws protecting your data privacy.

Bold of you to assume they even clicked the link

lol why?

Yeah, I don’t see an option for it on Liftoff
