  • There are jokes punching up, and jokes punching down.

    Chapelle is in a position of punching down, here.

  • holds up my binder of CDs

  • Shhhh don't say that out loud Are you trying to make Hitler 2: electric Boogaloo?

  • Painting

    You can go a long way with a cheap set of brushes and a kids watercolor or acrylic set

  • Wut

  • Now my brain just goes "it's all just strings"

    Dynamic typing does kinda smell like primitive obsession, now that you've brought it to my attention lol

  • It was a typo, but I also wanted to add that type coercion is not dynamic typing, the coercion can be done statically during compile time, so it could not be the 2nd one, even if it wasn't a typo

  • Dyac

  • That's the tolerance on paper, but the dude was doubting that you actually achieve that tolerance in the field. How can you when (using your supersonic aircraft example) you need to deal with temperature fluctuations more than 100c, not to mention pressure changes and sheer forces, which all deform the part?

  • Use tables for presenting tabular data, not for layout of non-tabular data.

    If you'd put it in a relational db or spreadsheet, then tables is fine.

  • Dynamic typing sucks.

    Type corrosion is fine, structural typing is fine, but the compiler should be able to tell if types are compatible at compile time.

    1. We don't know the price yet
    2. Not everyone knows how to build a PC
    3. Not everyone wants to learn to build a PC
    4. Not everyone knows how to install a new OS
    5. Not everyone wants to learn to install a new OS

    (Talking about OS because I'm assuming they want a console experience, not a windows desktop experience)

  • If you look at the arguments on math forums, you'll see that there isn't just one rule.

    It is a convention, and different places teach different conventions. Namely, some places say that PEDMAS is a very strict order. Other places say that it is PE D|M A|S, where D and M are the same level and order is left-to-right, and same with addition vs subtraction.And others, even in this post, say it's PEMDAS, which I have heard before.

    "Correct" and "incorrect" don't apply to conventions, it's simply a matter of if the people talking agree on the convention to use. And there are clearly at least three that highly educated people use and can't agree on.

  • My understanding is that it's just trueNAS scale under the hood, and that migrating between the two is fairly painless.

  • Yeah fair.

    It's also kinda a fuzzy area, because some of their code is open source, but not all. And iirc they're partly funded by the folks who make trueNAS, but supporting a project supported by open-source folks isn't the same as supporting open-source folks themselves.

    I figured it toss it out there anyways though.

  • Not practical advice, but since you're throwing out alternatives, one that I've had my eye on is hexOS. It's a trueNAS scale (fork?) by a bunch of ex-unraid devs with the goal of making trueNAS as easy as unraid.

    It still has a few more months of beta, though, so I haven't tried it. Also, like unraid, it has a paywall.

  • For some reason I didn't read the title from left to right, I read random words first. The first word i read was D&D, but I misread it.

    I was trying to figure out what exactly a witchy gothic DNS was, and how I could get one too.

  • Well basically, people pay you to do math. Hope that helped

  • Yes.
