I would like to ask a similar question:

I very much like the “the beauty and the beast” - styled metal. That’s at least what I read online sometime what it’s called.

The mix of a male voice growling and a female voice singing melodic kinda does it for me, but so far I had very little luck finding stuff that fits, actually just a few songs.

Any recommendations?

This is likely referring to TypeScript.

TypeScript has all of these patterns, they are used very frequently and they are necessary because TypeScript tends to be interesting from time to time since its types only exist at compile time, because it compiles to JavaScript, which is a language without types.

TypeScript also allows any as a keyword, which says “I don’t know which type this is and I don’t care”, which still produces valid JavaScript. To get back to typed variables it is necessary to use typeof (or similar constructs like a type guard).

Maybe I can just post here and get a good explanation?

I have been using PopOS for a while now and I am super happy with it, but last time it tried to switch from Gnome to KDE I ended up with a black screen after boot and had to reinstall from scratch.

Does anyone have a good writeup on how to do it properly?

What alternative would you suggest if I just want to talk to my mates while gaming? I gave up on setting up TeamSpeak after like an hour and many crashes and errors. I was a TeamSpeak fan for many years when using windows, but on Linux I highly dislike it.

Calling capitalism bad isn’t equal to calling communism good.

I see this all the time. People think the opposite of capitalism is communism, which is plain wrong. They are completely different systems, but many parts are similar. If you say “I don’t wanna do capitalism anymore” it’s not like you are forced to be a communist now.

This is due to the default sorter in JavaScript sorting by the string value. The reason for that is that this won’t create errors at runtime. Since JavaScript does not have types, this is the safest way of sorting.

This works:

const unsorted = [1, 100000, 21, 30, 4]
const sorted = unsorted.sort((a, b) => a - b) 

That site lists my account as “Banned for Vote manipulation”.

That’s… Interesting.

I worked with Azure Boards and the entire TFS stack for multiple years and it’s a horrible experience. It’s very slow, buggy and especially the access-management is so poorly designed, most engineers had admin rights, because we tried for hours and ended it with “fuck it” and gave them admin rights, so they could do their job.

What a great post. Thank you for sharing it and all the best for you!

Thanks for the tip, I will try that one out!

I like to listen to podcasts in the gym and I will interrupt my set to skip sponsors and ads. The enshittification on Spotify is particularly bad as they now play ads in addition to sponsorings for premium listeners.

I have been adblocking on YouTube for as long as I remember. Personally I think it’s unusable without an adblocker. What’s the alternative? Because I am not suddenly going to pay for a platform that keeps getting worse all the time.

A racing game that has a very nice track builder and is very open to modding. Its focus is on the individual driver and the time they achieve on a track.

Flying for hundreds of meters, drifting under water, going at high speeds through multiple loopings, sliding on ice and so much more is totally possible with Trackmania.

Try it, the base game is free and their pricing for online services and cups is totally fine.

JS !== Java

Try Javascript some day!

• We have truthy and falsy! Empty string or null? Yeah, that’s false!
• Of course we can parse a string to number, but if it’s not a number it’s NaN!
• null >= 0 is true!
• Assign a variable with =, test type equality with == and test actual equality with ===. You will NEVER use the wrong amount of = anywhere, trust me!
• Our default sort converts everything to string, then sorts by UTF-16 code. So yes, [1, 10, 3] is sorted and you are going to live with it.
• True + true = 2. You know I’m right.

Try Javascript today!

I have my own mailserver just for me and it wasn’t that complicated to be honest. I set it up with Mailcow in Docker in under a day. So far it has been stable with regular backups and updates through Lighthouse.

Maintenance comes down to 5 minutes every three months because somehow Let’s Encrypt and Mailcow don’t like each other and I have to renew the certificate manually.
