The bad thing is, they’ve attached a mediocre screwdriver to the hammer because everybody keeps using the hammer as a screwdriver. But now, everybody STILL uses the hammer as a screwdriver. The screwdriver part used to be a separate tool, but people didn’t know how to use it, and now they still don’t, even though it comes with instructions.
They really should have kept things separate.
Randelung@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()English0·19 days agoIt comes down to the question “Is YOUR C++ code faster than Python?” (and of course the reverse).
I’ve built a SCADA from scratch and performance requirements are low to begin with, seeing as it’s all network bound and real world objects take time to react, but I’m finding everything is very timely.
A colleague used SQLAlchemy for a similar task and got abysmal performance. No wonder, it’s constantly querying the DB for single results.
Randelung@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•2 Instances are being used for coordinated vote manipulation, and should be defederated. chinese.lol lemmy.doesnotexist.clubEnglish1·23 days agoThat’s what I’m afraid of. Once some bad actors realize Lemmy is as defenseless as it is, it’ll be carnage for a while. The only tool we have is defederation and it’s slow and borderline useless against spam or worse.
Randelung@lemmy.worldto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Almost as annoying as the windows evangelists0·1 month agoCLI is effective because every command serves a specific purpose. UIs are the opposite, you have to imagine all possible intentions the user could have at any given point and then indicate possible actions, intuitively block impossible actions, and recover from pretty much any error.
How to get the correct amount of pasta:
- Get as much as you think is right.
- Wrong.

Randelung@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court CasesEnglish0·2 months agoFeel free to argue with them, I’m just pointing out that there’s potential for misunderstandings. If you want to talk about an actual subject, you’ll necessarily have to navigate them.
Randelung@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court CasesEnglish0·2 months agoSure it is. You can define language all you want, the goal is to communicate with each other. The definition follows usage, not the other way around. Just look up the current definition for literally…
Randelung@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court CasesEnglish0·2 months agoMe, too. But it also means when some people say “that’s a lie” they’re not accusing you of anything, just remarking you’re wrong. And that can lead to misunderstandings.
Randelung@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Judges Are Fed up With Lawyers Using AI That Hallucinate Court CasesEnglish0·2 months agoI’ve had this lengthy discussion before. Some people define a lie as an untrue statement, while others additionally require intent to deceive.
E: you can stop arguing about definitions and logic. The fact remains that some people will refer to untrue statements as lies, no matter what the dictionary says.

Randelung@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The government doesn't use SQL0·3 months agoOf course. Everyone who’s ever used a DB knows it’s BS. As long as the data is structured - which it a) is because he was able to make assertions about it and b) fucking Excel files are enough - it CAN be imported and SQL’d on. Even Excel has built in support for fuck’s sake, not to mention Python and PowerQuery.
The dude is a self-certified moron - he probably struggles with the concept of PKI, too.
Getting DNS and DHCP mixed up here.
DNS you set in your DHCP, DHCP you either disable or enable.
Set the PiHole as DNS on your router or disable DHCP on the router altogether and enable it on the Pi. The former is simpler.
Sounds like a 4chan prank, but… 🪦
