Ha! thanks for the laugh.

Something like this:

In a small European capital city it cost 250 Million Euros some years ago to install electronic gates at the metro stations.

Thank you for the links and the youtube upload!

Thanks for that.

That logic of the “break” keyword given a parameter is unusual compared to to other languages.

Maybe it was a bad example to use.

OK… So what does the first line of code do?

You might as well say what the second line of code does - will save me time replying again ;)

Regarding the book, What would be the difference between 32bit and 64bit? Is it still relevant to read today?

LOL, that outburst fits in with your HN username.

Anyone know more about the “Tiejen brothers”?

I’m was on the fence with DH with my kids but your comments have changed my mind!

Try wasp-os https://github.com/daniel-thompson/wasp-os

I have a colmi P8 and it was easy to get wasp-os uploaded and now have micropython available with direct connection into the watch!

Battery life is really only 24-48hrs if you don’t do anything heavy.

Sometimes I wonder how more useful it is than my apple watch.

I’ve had this thought for some time and only last week did I visit my github page to see what I could do. An idea was to merge all the “beginner” repos into a single repo.

Turns out that recent repos are not to shabby at all and all the other older repos are sort of kinda cute and show that I’ve been having about for some time.

And of course I have private repos for “pro” work.

My advice is to make public some recent serious work and all will be good.

Hey! nice idea and software. With the costs you mention how many notifications can you send? There must be a limit right?

At social events just think how you’ll feel jumping out of bed without feeling shit. Remind yourself of times spent head in the toilet. Think of all the brain cells you save. In time do the same with tobacco, coffee and sugar.

It’ll all be alright. One thing, try to look after yourself and keep in shape. Slow down or even better quit alcohol, tobacco and sugar.

I’m quite good at resisting the latest hype and in the early years of docker it was exactly that and, more importantly, I had no reason to use it.

Some years ago I had some epic battles with deploying some fancy software in several environments including online and internally on-premise servers.

I do like challenges but some experiences get old fast. Understanding why your software is failing when deployed, fixing deployment configuration files etc. The cognitive load becomes heavy having to remember, check and fix. On top of that deployment environments always differ enough to somehow require individual attention.

So, thats when the lightbulb switched on in my head. Using (docker) containers has completely removed these adventures in deployment. And I’m very happy about this, I don’t have to deal with that stress anymore.

Now, with more experience and a black belt in container kung fu, I’m understanding what the hype around kubernetes may mean but I’m also sensing that a David is around the corner to knock down this Goliath.

“But what is the significance of all this?”

For this particular story none at all. Nothing.

“By contrast, I think about Bluetooth a lot. I wish I didn't.”

LOL, yes same here. Can’t wait for Bluetooths b̶a̶l̶l̶s̶ baggage to be chopped.

Yep, a simple flask app is an option. Easy to deploy and have a simple endpoint hook that reads the input parameters and then does your magic of writing out some static files and/or if you feel adventurous write out json files that can be read via javascript!

If the script is local to the web server then it can be run via cron to produce html/js/css files.

If the script is external then it must be capable of making a http request to the server where a script does something similar to the scenario above.

“I’ve also shown how a specially constructed file can result in arbitrary code execution, ”

Ouch, thats not looking good for a reference implementation for a piece of software deployed on billions and billions of machines that was written by experts and reviewed (and modified) by even bigger egg heads.

Thanks. 2 more questions:

- Do I have to do anything now with all my “top-level” repositories (total >5GB)?

- When I create a new repository do I have to do something else as well (create new namespace)?

So can I create multiple “namespaces” and each one can contain a repository of 5GB?

I got the email several weeks ago - and I still don’t fully understand what it means! Unbelievable confusion.

PLEASE can someone in plain english say what the limits are PER REPOSITORY? Is it 5GB per repository? can you have as many repositories as you want? I don’t care or use namespaces.

LOL…lipop! Did you read the article?

Have to say, the video footage and editing was terrible. I suppose thats what you get when you’re sponsored and the important thing is the product placement.

The article should not have delved into this as its a can of worms - stick with the industry, programming and math.

Its funny that the article uses a “chess champion” and a “concert pianist” as examples to to argue that you don’t question their occupations when it comes to being a benefit to mankind or not. I mean, the huge fucking salaries, where does the money come from? from fucking trees?

WTF! Seriously? I predict this will be one of the first article/HN post that has negative publicity for Jane Street .

Come on over to Greece and take a break.

Yeah I’ve tried that method but with the camera resolution I had it was practically impossible to decode.

Can someone explain the “stamp” method for printing the code on the cards? The stamp images shown on the website seems to be stretched and I can’t figure out whats going on.
