@foone I think your gifs are really educational. Governments want such models installed on our PCs and Phones to alert the police because think of the children. And now I can say, look at this, do you feel safer yet?
@foone Maybe you can make it read parameters from a file? The convention for that is usually @file Then you can set the defaults in that file, and override the arguments you want changed by specifying them again in the command.
As expected, the Qualcomm enshittification of @arduino has begun. Expressif's ESP32 stuff has already been a better platform for some time... I guess I'll have to learn the ESP-IDF ecosystem now instead of the Arduino IDE.
@whitequark You can't just let the client do the decompression for you? They tend to transparently support deflate at least.
@Catfish_Man I remember when safety was about keeping people safe. The breaks which make it impossible for elevators to fall down, or for escalators to go too fast. Saws which stop if you touch them. Machines turning dangerous stuff off if they detect an error or if the software crashes.
But todays developers would let a car safely and securly crash into a wall at full speed when something goes wrong...
@whitequark Somehow they learned C by themself. They probably also learned some other languages like python, java, js, go, etc.
It's not that they don't warnt to learn. It's that, despite common believe, c being a small language makes it easy to pick up, intuitive even, whereas rust, with it's more complicated syntax, typesystem, and special rules (like borrow checking), make it hard to learn, especially with prior programming knowledge. Much work, low to no benefit, not worth it.
@mntmn I haven't tried this, but perhaps a passive NFC ring? It's always right where the phone is, and unlike a finger, you can change it.
@whitequark Please also add toJSON to BigInt and Set. Also, an option or built-in reviver vor BigInt instead of Number for JSON.parse would be nice. Doing all this manually is annoying.
