"then" is used to depict time, sequence or a causal relationship. "than" is used with comparative adjectives, to depict comparison.

  • Yeah, it’s so good that reality is flaking at the edges because of using

    <put your thing here>

  • I do it.Every time.

    And I keep a wired keyboard for it.

  • Well, I can buy a GPS map device. Cash payments are not much of a problem until the Govt. starts adding that extra tax on cash withdrawal from ATMs. I will need to wait for companies to grow a brain and stop using WhatsApp for work.

    For all else, I use my computer anyway.

  • Well, you have to save something in plain-text, for when you forget the brain-text.But I guess it could be stored on paper-text instead.

  • Yeah, it's so good that reality is flaking at the edges because of using constexpr auto x = whatever().

  • But will a good hello world program, made in JS, run on Firefox on an Embedded Windows 11 OS, running on a CPU emulator running on WASM on Edge be more performant than a mediocre hello world program in C, running on Linux on the same hardware that Edge run on?

  • Wasn't Rust originally made for embedded systems to reduce the time taken debugging runtime errors by shifting those to compile time?

  • Well, you need to type more and you need to learn more things with Rust, before you can start making stuff.But the additional work is to make it easier for you to make changes later, when you come back to it after a while.

    So you might need to do more before hello world, but say if you have a complex library and want to use some function of it after learning Rust, it will be easier to not make some common mistakes.

    A pretty good recent example of something that will cause a common mistake would be:In the mongoc library, there is a function named mongoc_client_select_server and the pointer it returns requires destruction using mongoc_server_description_destroy. But it doesn't say so in the function's comments/documentation. So, I had to go into the function called by the function called by the function called by it, to find the function making said pointer and having a comment stating that the pointer made by it would require destruction by the user.And the only reason I found that out was my obsession, but I had already made the mistake.

  • I don't use file extensions, so no .txt.

    /s

  • Nice.Perhaps would be useful for someone making a Lemmy Client.

    My thoughts were more in the lines of:

    • Firefox probably supports the JS in SVG
    • I would expect Inkscape to not execute the JS, but let it be when edited and saved.
    • For normal viewers on the desktop, I'd expect JS to be fully ignored.
  • Not really. I don't have a SysWOW64.I deleted it long ago, along with System32 and other such things.

  • Backups

    Jump
  • Same here.I only backup stuff like receipts, certificates, passwords and some of my work folders. The rest, I'll somehow manage without.

    Also, I keep the backup in an easy enough place that I can take it and run, in case of a large enough earthquake that destroys my comp.

  • Backups

  • Seems, as long it's not a cheap Asian car with good mileage, it's road legal.

  • Surely not all SVG viewer implementations would be supporting the JS, right?

  • Don't forget to make a C interface for that Python library, so that it can be used in Kernel code.

  • I use KDE and I set the animation speed to - as fast as the monitor can make it look like an animation.When I minimise/maximise a window, all I want is to have enough feedback to tell me that the action happened and if 20 frames can do that, I don't need 50.

  • Oh that's my fault.I didn't play any Steam games last month:P

    Scrolling down tells me others had the same idea.

  • I had once considered using exFAT for my external HDD, back when I was dual-booting.This might have made a difference, had I gone ahead with that.
