Fair enough! The disadvantage is that, as opposed to Dropbox and similar, I have go into a file at the root of the synced folder, rather than keeping that config near to where itcs relevant.

Thanks for the names!

That’s… a very good idea. I should do that anyway.

Forgejo for projects and syncthing for data is probably perfect, thank you!

I tried with both, but I didn’t figure out how if such an option exists. I did manage to do the opposite (keeping files uploaded but not having them locally), both with and without VFS (with VFS it’s in a context menu in nautilus, without it’s in the desktop app).

it does! I use it to sync my music, but I feel like it’s not the right tool for the job here.

I don’t want to “have the folders connected”, I want to have the ability to sync files easily, while excluding specific folders and files.

I have. It hasn’t worked very well for me, the docs weren’t great (though I’m looking at them now and they do seem better?) and it broke in strange ways.

So… databases? Especially in data centers? Still a nice boost in that case

Messages from my friends are the one kind of message I don’t do this on, because I’m way too online and also doing anything mean to my friends makes me feel way too guilty (and I mostly fuel my motivation through guilt and fear of failure)

FUCK I put a snack in the freezer like… 5 days ago? And completely forgot about it until now

This will happen again I can’t fetch it right now

Hey that’s me! Congrats to everyone!

If you haven’t already, try out KDE’s Krita. Incredible piece of software, much better for drawing imo

Ngl that link puts me slightly off. It reads exactly like what people booted for very good reasons say

The following paragraph shows how so-called cancel culture was used weaponising […]

And in the email, Mozilla talks about him violating their “inclusivity” policy… we also don’t know what was reported, only the reasons stated.

Not saying that it wasn’t unjust, just that we only have 1 perspective and it’s written in a way that raises some red flags.

Is it for sure Microsoft?

Not an algorithm or theorem, but specializing to the input is a good general tip to at least get an answer ime

In terms of algorithms: flood fill is useful, a few other graph algos like min-cut/max-flow come in useful sometimes.

There are a lot of people participating. Some of 'em are bound to be really really good, and also get lucky!

The timeouts are 1 minute for the first 5 attempts, then 5 minutes.

People are just really used to AoC’s format and use languages/frameworks that are extremely concise

I’ve got a really nice setup with benchmarks, auto-input-fetching and solution upload and such, written in Rust, so I’m sticking with that. I kinda wanted to try Odin, but december really snuck up on me, and I didn’t have time to set it up or really get familiar with it.

Iterators and slicing and such are all just… so nice for parsing streams.

Do advertisers maybe require a bit of JS to be run to validate a click? I can’t imagine they’re happy to lose money to completely invalid clicks…

Actually that “brain stops developing at 25” is a misconception, the study that spawned it just ran out of funding when the subjects were 25 and didn’t see the brain development slowing down, iirc (no source on hand it’s past midnight here).

Yeah, did:web exists, but I still called it centralized because it still relies on did:plc pretty much everywhere (though honestly domain name handles might actually be did:web, not sure). Didn’t know about that dual setup by Bluesky though!

I did notice the @handle.invalid! Thanks!
