You know… I was about to reply with "I use set -e and I love it, but them I read the link and it gave me flashbacks. In a previous work at some points I programmed way more in bash than the languages I was officially hired to program into, and I run in some many of this edge cases, I think almost all of the ones mentioned in the link, including doing the workarounds mentioned. two that standed out to me was local var=$(fail) and if f(). Side note, I remember finding a bug in declare (I don’t remember exactly, but one of the flags, maybe -l to make a local variable was not working) and was só excited to fill a bug report but then I saw that it had already fixed in a newer bash release.

Anyway, In the end if I recall correctly I never settled in a one fixed approach, I distinctly remember adding set -eu to a bunch of scripts but also remember having to set +e in some cases like when sourcing other scripts and also adding the suggested foo || die combo a bunch"

I think in the end my approach was the same as rking’s at the end of the linked text, I used it but not relied on it. And I guess using too much bash made me paranoid and I heavily tested every line for all sorts of error cases. I think set -e is good when debugging when the thing is not working, especially because bash also suffers to lack a good debug and tracing environment, leaving you to set a bunch of stuff just to have a trace of your script and see what it is doing.

Yeah fuck that shit. I was on a good stretch of not thinking about Artax death for I don’t know 1 or 2 years and this post comes from nowhere like sucker punch. This is like the twisted version of The game. Dammit.

You don’t even need to specify the decompression algorithm anymore, I don’t even know if it was mandatory at some point but since I was introduced to Linux like 20 years ago tar would already extrapolate the decompression from the filename extension. Now for the compression I think you do need to include the algorithm, it would be nice if it would default to the extension on the supplied filename also.

I think find UI is so bad every time I use it I think about hacking a script just to make it simpler for my use case. At the same time I am very reluctant to use one of this new versions of standard commands trying to reinvent the wheel.

Some things I don’t link about find:

1. How the directory needs to be the first argument. I get the reasoning but it is such a pain, specially if you are using it with the same query repeatedly in different paths.

2. The parenthesis to set order of matches, you are doing it in the shell so you have to escape them which is never fun.

3. The fact that -name does not match partial names and there is not a version that do so you have to keep doing stuff like -name "*foo*" and of course you have to escape that shit or risk you shell expanding it. Having the GLOB version is nice but there could have a more ergonomic way to do this type, which I assume is a very common use case.

4. Actually, doing more complex logical matches is always a pain and it would be nice to have a easier way to do some common operations.

5. The fact that when you do some complex match then the -print is not automatic anymore or the the behaviour is kinda weird. And is a pain to add it in all logical branches or do it in a way that you do not repeat a lot.

Anyway, sorry for the rant.

This is the only series that I rewatch a bunch of times. I miss it so much, after 1 or 2 years I have to watch it again.

It is so good, I wish people would freak out more about. Weirdly enough I wish they do not make sequels, as not to tarnish this beautiful, perfect series.

I may be wrong but I think judges are not elected nor politically appointed in Brazil (I think the exception is the supreme Court). They are like other public jobs that you have to pass an exam and compete with other candidates.

An old but gold would be any Max Payne game. I only played the first one but boy, was it awesome. I think it ticks many of what you mentioned:

• 3rd Person
• Story- driven (it has a great narration and comic book style to tell the story between chapters)
• solid gun fight with the famous bullet time. There is no upgrade, just new guns
• Not complicated, go forward and shoot things
• No attributea at all.

The only thing you may not like is the graphics.

After seeing a compilation video of Philomena Cunk telling stories or her mate Paul now every time I see that name in my mind I read “my mate Paul” with her voice.

It is an old joke that I thought was very well known, at least for people that know about emacs, my mistake, but hey, Luck 10.000 of you, so here it goes:

“Emacs is a great operating system, lacking only a decent text editor”

That says something about you… and me.

*And vim~~/nvim~~.

I am sorry? Are you suggesting that somehow an text editor has more functionality than a fucking OS?

Love that for them ❤️

Just for reference, because programming is not one big tent, as far as I know most people working professionally developing for the Linux kernel, gcc and glic uses only a text editor and “Unix as your IDE”. I never tried myself but I have a feeling that any IDE with git integration would just immediately cry trying to interact with the kernel or gcc git repo. Even gits own PS1 status feature slows to crawl in this repos.

GRIS

I know that you said multiplayer, but if I can be one more voice on single player games that you guys may enjoy playing in turns I strongly recommend GRIS. It is so beautiful and I think it suits itself well for shorter play sessions.

A lot of Keto “friendly” food have like 1g or 2g of carb, and a part from what you mentioned of the serving sized being unrealistic small, even if it wasn’t, they add up, if you consume a variety of this during the day you gonna exceed the maximum carb really easily.

I don’t know if that is the reason but I wonder if the recent ruling that made Firefox loose on the cash income from Google as a default search engine has them doing a similar type of deal with AI companies, even Google, like, Firefox has a built-in interface for AI and the backend you can choose but the default one is one that some AI company pay a fee to be.

If that is the case I think it is fine, it is like a wink-wink situation, you have to have it enabled by default and with a default provider for it to be worth something for someone to pay for the privilege, and then the users can simply change it be gone with it without affecting the payout. (Unless the pay or renew pay has some metric like use statistics)

The best part is that it shows that they don’t have a clue. If you are “forking” a project to change it language is not a fork is a rewrite. It would be one thing if they were adding rust to an already existing project, but as far as I can tell the project is full rust from the beginning.

You may already know that, but just to make it clear for other readers: It is impossible for an LLM to behave like described. What an LLM algorithm does is generate stuff, It does not search, It does not sort, It only make stuff up. There is not that can be done about it, because LLM is a specific type of algorithm, and that is what the program do. Sure you can train it with good quality data and only real cases and such, but it will still make stuff up based on mixing all the training data together. The same mechanism that make it “find” relationships between the data it is trained on is the one that will generate nonsense.
