  • Nah, I first saw this photo many years ago...

  • I kind of want to try it now, though. It's a thing to fry rice before you cook it, so maybe you can also do that with oatmeal?

  • Coming at it from the Rust ecosystem, I'd primarily opt for uploading release binaries somewhere. You don't particularly need a setup script, since Rust programs are generally self-contained.

    Publishing a package in addition to that really isn't hard, but would be my secondary choice, since users are not likely to have cargo on their system.Well, and cargo compiles on the target machine, which is great for supporting unusual architectures, but you may have C libraries included where it's just a gamble whether you can compile them on a given target system.

  • Lots of folks also like the unmarketable names, because you know that it's not a corporate project. You're hearing about it, because it's actually good, and not just because some startup got VC money to do marketing.

    Heck, the reverse is true as well. This project is better specifically because it has that name. You just know some transfemmes are tirelessly hacking away at it, because they enjoy the silly name.

  • Sharknado

  • Yeah, it's definitely a trope to make it obvious to the viewer what's happening, and of course, to build up drama.

  • I heard "dick jousting" before...

  • Yeah, true. To both, your correction and your caveat. 😅

  • I do find it an interesting choice. Normally, you'd put a comma there, but you could also use a colon. If you combine comma and colon, you do get a semicolon.

  • Had to think what this would be mathematically, and I guess, it's a factorization then.

  • Well, yeah, but it does also say that he was born in "Austria-Hungary (present-day Serbia)".

    I mean, OP did respond by now, so I guess, it isn't about that guy either way, but don't think my brain did too bad of a job. 🙃

  • If that works for you, then that's great. I'm not saying folks have to get into podcasts, I'm just explaining how I find them useful now. I did not get them for a long time either, because I had wrong expectations for them.


    And well, I also happen to work as a software dev, but my brain hates when I have to process words that I hear, while also processing words that are on my screen.So, my own 6h of music per day is generally without vocals, or at least vocals that I've heard many times before or which are in a foreign language, so that my brain doesn't have to process them.

    And that probably makes my music collection comparatively unengaging. I guess, I also don't grab new music often enough to make it engaging that way.With all that combined, music is kind of largely relegated to the background thing for me, and podcasts are a foreground thing, when I can't look at a screen.

    Again, just explaining how they work for me. It does sound like music could take the foreground role for you.

  • WYPINWYG?

  • I mean, do you watch videos? I find, they fill the same role, but for when you can't look at a screen.

    I often walk to work now and just listen to a podcast on the way. Or if I'm cleaning or sewing or, well, I don't paint so far, but I imagine, they're excellent for that, too.Lots of handiwork stopped being boring, since I've gotten into podcasts.

    But yes, obviously also just pick better podcasts. One of the podcasts I listen to, is just interesting/fun science topics being presented and discussed. That's not low-effort at all...

  • Oh no, there's probably stock traders that sell, because Jupiter's about to do a loop, and then there's other stock traders that know those stock traders will sell, so they'll try to sell before.

    Even if none of them actually believed into astrology, they would still sell, because they assume others will sell.

  • Ah, that does make a lot of sense, yeah. Thanks!
