The author pointed out how exceptions are often faster than checking every value. If your functions throws an error often enough that Exception handling noticeably slow down your program, surely you got to take a second look at what you’re doing.

They both have their place. I just recently discovered a bug in lemmy bot I wrote where the lemmy API module will raise an Exception if login fails (response status code != 200), which feels extremely out of place, as the error/status code do matter in that case.
Other times exceptions make more sense as Phillip pointed out.
It’s easier faster to ask for forgiveness than permission after all.
It’s a genuine concern though. If you want one centralised server hosting all the content, just use reddit.
I don’t think you become the best tech CEO in the world by having a healthy approach to work. He is just wired differently, some people are just all about work.
It’s just a research paper, not a product. It’s about discovering and learning new possible methods and applications.
That’s a narrow view of art
You could always ask someone to vouch for you. It could also be that you have open communities and closed communities. So you would build up trust in an open community before being trusted by someone to be allowed to interact with the closed communities. Open communities could be communities less interesting/harder for the bots to spam and closed communities could be the high risk ones, such as news and politics.
Would this greatly reduce the user friendliness of the site? Yes. But it would be an option if bots turn into a serious problem.
I haven’t really thought through the details and I’m not sure how well it would work for a decentralised network though. Would each instance run their own trust tree, or would trusted instances share a single trust database 🤷♂️
We are just debris from a big explosion.
Peaked in 2005
A chain/tree of trust. If a particular parent node has trusted a lot of users that proves to be malicious bots, you break the chain of trust by removing the parent node. Orphaned real users would then need to find a new account that is willing to trust them, while the bots are left out hanging.
Not sure how well it would work on federated platforms though.
- The format works for both lossy and lossless compression, depending on the use case and need. Photographs can be encoded in a lossy way much more efficiently than JPEG and things like screenshots can be losslessly encoded more efficiently than PNG.
Someone made a fair point that having a format being both lossy and lossless is not necessarily a great idea. If you download a jpeg file you know it will be compressed, if you download png it will be lossless. Shifting through jxl files to check if it’s lossy or not doesn’t sound very fun.
All in all I’m a big supporter of jxl though, it’s one of the only github repos I actively follow.
but I don’t like the indentation crap
Do you not use indentation in other languages?
I’m by no means a vegan, but it has always weirded me out how people see no problem of dragging an animal out of the water by using a hook in the animal’s mouth. Even weirder is it when people then throw the fish back into the sea to be “ethical”. It’s just plain recreational torture at that point.
Luckily BG3 is on GOG. I don’t think I’ve bought a new game on steam for years, granted I don’t play a lot of games nowadays.
They are probably the most complex machines ever created by humanity though, and requires expertise across the whole world to build. Even if they had blueprints, it would take years just to get the manufacturing right.
Don’t get high on your own supply, as the saying goes.
programming.dev by default hides NSFW communities + politics, so you won’t see them in c/all unless you subscribe to them. I’m sure there are other instances that does something similar as well.
But now you’re cherry picking food. Fish and chicken is good and healthy food, why didn’t you mention those instead. Pure sugar is both vegan and gluten free, but you wouldn’t call that healthy would you?
There is nothing unhealthy about gluten if your body can tolerate it. So vegan, gluten free and the opposite are all perfectly valid options for a healthy diet. You could also have an unhealthy diet within those 3 categories as well.
The sea should be marked as C considering that’s what you’ll discover when you get deep into it.
