4·16 hours agoI 100% understand the frustration. It can easily feel like you’re doing the maintainers a favor and they’re making this harder than it needs to be.
The thing is, though, from the maintainer side, it very often feels like you’re asked to do those contributors favors. You may not care for whatever feature they want to contribute, but then are supposed to put in work reviewing their contributions and possibly having to patch up their work, if it doesn’t meet quality standards.And then, yeah, you start requiring quality gates to ensure you don’t have to put in extra work for something you don’t care about. But then may also end up putting hurdles in place, so that effectively fewer contributions show up asking for reviews. It’s an ugly solution, but frankly, it’s better than having contributors put in actual work creating a pull request and then you not having time to review it.
Yes, tarragon = Estragon in German.
Probably wouldn’t have 3000+ hours, if you just waltzed through the whole thing. Like, that’s boring when it’s no challenge anymore.
I try to balance health with frustration by buying snacks, which satiate at least somewhat, so for example trail mix or fruit. 🥴
Yeah, they actually renamed to “Fugging” in 2020, because it was getting out of hand…
I believe, they were talking about this Kyle Rittenhouse person. Kyle presumably drinks water. If they’re convinced that it turns people gay, well, presumably their own sexuality did not conflict with this theory.
To my knowledge, they’re entirely separate engines…
Veloren started as a clone, or perhaps rather spiritual continuation, of Cube World: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_World
Cube World was hyped quite a bit, particularly because the solo dev made huge promises. Then he released an Alpha build, made a bunch of money from that and went into radio silence.
Veloren basically set out to build the game, that Cube World was promised to be. And well, they’ve long surpassed what was in that Alpha build.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
Isn’t that still just an alias for
Invoke-WebRequestthough?At least, I heard again of that being the case not too long ago. Might have also been outdated information, though…
Pretty sure, people drawing for commissions would typically use a drawing tablet… ^^’
Invoke-WebRequest has entered the chat

Yeah, you don’t need the urinal to be under the sink. You can just run a pipe to the urinal…
Reminds me of pingfs, which stores data in in-flight ICMP packages: https://code.kryo.se/pingfs/
Ah, I thought there would be a male bird involved still, but I guess that example just explains ovulation. Still quite optimistic that everyone shares the same understanding here, though…
This post made me realize, I’ve only ever heard “the birds and the bees” referenced, but never actually how it’s applied during sex ed.
But uh, turns out this does not make any sense in that context either. It’s just two separate examples to explain sexuality, so bees pollinating flowers and birds laying eggs. They’re just used as examples, because they’re visible in nature and somewhat resemble the mechanics of sex.
I mean, I do have several years of experience, but I’m still curious to see what others think. 😅
Obviously, someone cares for these changes, otherwise they would not have been made.
But yeah, the larger headings seem like niche changes, which most devs will only see the advantages of indirectly, i.e. when a library makes use of it.
In terms of the stabilized APIs, .as_array() seems like it will come up at times, because you might have an API that demands an array (so with a fixed length, e.g.
[u32; 4]), but you only have a slice or aVec.And fmt::from_fn() seems like it could be really convenient when you need different string formatting for a type in one particular place.
