  • Google Maps Reviews are now Semi-useful

    Jump

  • To be clear, this isn’t about reporting reviews to Google in general, which is possible in any country. This is specifically about the fast-tracked “defamation” process in Germany.

    And they are not removing this process, they are merely adding transparency.

  • Do you have to be always connected to your node?

    Jump

  • The radio will store a small amount of packets (around 30) in its memory for when it's not connected to a client app. If it's full, it will replace the oldest packets with newly incoming text messages only.

    And yes, they persist if you restart the node. Not sure what you mean by “terminal”, there are a couple of CLI tools for meshtastic, including a practically complete chat app.

  • Any Victoria Logs advice or alternatives

    Jump

  • In case you decide to look for alternatives, I would probably go with elastic/filebeat/grafana, a fairly standard log monitoring suite. Not saying it’s better or worse than Victoria Logs, which i have no experience with.

  • Copilot is now injecting ads into GitHub pull requests. It's a disaster.

    Jump

  • You can start by moving your development workflows (pull requests, issue tracking, etc.) to something like codeberg. You can continue publishing your PyPI package from Github by just pushing your code from codeberg to Github.

    Eventually you can also move the publishing pipeline over as well. I don’t know how complicated your library is, of course, but in simplest cases it’s a matter of rewriting a config file in a slightly different way.

  • How do we know that irrational numbers never settle into a pattern? Do we just assume it or is there any kind of proof?

    Jump

  • And we also know that irrational numbers exist, and we have proven that certain numbers are irrational.

  • How do we know that irrational numbers never settle into a pattern? Do we just assume it or is there any kind of proof?

    Jump

  • “Settle into a pattern” is a vague term. If you refer to the decimal fractions (e.g. 3.14…), then if the fraction is finite or repeating the number is rational (basically follows from the definitions of rational numbers and positional fractions). We know that numbers like √2, π and e are irrational, and hence, their decimal fraction representations are infinite and non-repeating.

    However, some irrational numbers can be expressed as periodic continued fractions. For example √2=1+1/(2+1/(2+1/(…

    So what you’re asking about is probably more about the properties of decimal fractions, and not irrational numbers.

  • What's your favorite well-designed CLI and why?

    Jump

  • I think it depends a lot on what kind of application you’re thinking of. Here are some examples of tools that I particularly remember for having nice CLI interfaces, but they are all slightly different in terms of the number of operations/entities they support.

    Single operation, a lot of different types of data: httpie

    httpie is a CLI HTTP client. It allows to generate fairly complex requests, choose which diagnostic information you want to see, etc.

    Examples:

     
        
$ https httpie.io/hello
$ http PUT pie.dev/put X-API-Token:123 name=John
$ http -v pie.dev/get

    Several operations, a lot of parameters: Bazel

    Bazel is a build system. There are only a handful of operations you typically perform (build, run, test, query), but they all follow the same pattern.

    Examples:

     
        
$ bazel build //app
$ bazel --quiet build //app -c opt
$ bazel --quiet run //app -c opt -- --port=1234

    Multiple entites, multiple operations: LVM

    I really liked the interface of Linux Volume Manager tools. They consist of multiple commands that follow the same pattern, and use the same flags for options.

    Examples:

     
        
# vgcreate -n vg_name
# vgs
# pvcreate /dev/sda
# vgextend vg_name /dev/sda
# lvcreate vg_name -n lv_name -L5G
# lvresize vg_name/lv_name -L+1G
# lvs

  • What's your favorite well-designed CLI and why?

    Jump

  • Wanted to mention jj too. It follows a fairly standard pattern of ‘

    <command>

    <noun>

    <verb>

    ’, e.g. ‘jj bookmark create’, allows to abbreviate unambiguous commands (e.g. ‘jj b c’), has a lot of QoL features (such as highlighting unique prefixes of change IDs in the output). Really a lot of thought went into CLI design specifically it seems.

  • I wouldn't say that compulsory voting is "stupid". There are some very good arguments for it.

    Firstly, it addresses the imbalance of cost of voting (the time and effort you need to spend to cast your vote) with its effect (the tiny fraction of impact your vote has on the outcome). This disproportionately affects lower income voters, especially in some countries like the US, where voting usually happens on a weekday.

    Secondly, the outcomes are no longer won "by turnout". In other words, to win the election you can no longer merely convince your supporters to vote for you, you need to actually convince people who don't support you to vote for you.

    Thirdly, and perhaps less convincingly, this stimulates the interest in the decision and the outcome. Since you have to vote, you may be inclined to actually form your opinion about the elections, and follow up on its outcomes.
