I think the comment meant to point out that these humorous take on a tragedy are only accepted as part of a russiophobic perspective. I tend to agree, although I don't find it offensive I understand that similar comments on for example, the killing of a ukranian ballet dancer, would be seen differently by all of us. Hence, the xenophobia. Ukranian is western and we relate.

Just changing the victim nationality makes it palatable for jokes, that's something that calls for observation

from hammers import sledgehammer and that's why I love Python :)

Did anyone read the grammar of graphics paper from Hadley Wickham? I kind of enjoyed it a lot, and got to know what's the power source really. I'm amazed so many software libraries came to reinvent compossibility in such unergonomic ways... But it's nice to have options.

I think I might prefer base R over matplotlib though... :p

Can you do a plot a hundred times with a hundred different datasets with these templates? Without having to apply such template to each file, just pointing to the folder with them...

To me that's the whole point of programming, you can automatically do a thing and it doesn't matter if it took an hour to write the code. Once you have it, you point it to the folder with all datasets, iterate over while you drink a coffee and then you have the hundreds of plots.

Cool. Btw, I'm using gluetun container, and sending through VPN only a few containarrs. It's just another take, instead of running the VPN connection on the OS level and then whitelisting apps for exclusion.

There are two ways to getting answers, and apparently neither involves the copying and pasting the mod of the community is doing xD

i think we just have higher neurodiversity...

meanwhile, facebook and so on, have more assholes, fake accounts, etc.

But we are not fully immune to assholes, we all are (at some point).

I keep forgetting who said it, and I will rephrase terribly but there's this antifa quote that goes something like "A person of color, homosexual, or Jew doesn't really have a choice to stop being who they're. Meanwhile, a fascist can stop spreading their hate towards others. That's all we ask, and we won't be tolerant."

American authocracy at its finest... I agree one should vote, and not for Trump. But this poster is disheartening...

Gaming on linux is not that bad today. Look at valve's success with the steamdeck. All past and present issues are because developers were aiming to a different platform, with proprietary tooling.

In meme terms, is like Fender made the guitars for people with different hands. You can't play, but it's their fault.

Dear all, please remember that engaging with trolls can get you banned (rule of thumb, half the time the offender gets for themselves)

Write what you want others to read, I don't care if there are disagreements. But go get a private chat room if you want to exchange insults with them :)

(For context, I'm basically referring to Python 3.12 "multiprocessing.Pool Vs. concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor"...)

Today I read that multiple cores (parallelism) help in CPU bound operations. Meanwhile, multiple threads (concurrency) is due when the tasks are I/O bound.

Is this correct? Anyone cares to elaborate for me?

At least from a theorethical standpoint. Of course, many real work has a mix of both, and I'd better start with profiling where the bottlenecks really are.

If serves of anything having a concrete "algorithm". Let's say, I have a function that applies a map-reduce strategy reading data chunks from a file on disk, and I'm computing some averages from these data, and saving to a new file.

Rockstar Games' servers have been under heavy fire from massive DDoS attacks in recent days, causing widespread login and connectivity issues for players of GTA Online. These attacks come in the wake of Rockstar’s recent implementation of BattlEye, a new anti-cheat system designed to crack down on in-game cheating, sparking backlash from a segment of the player base. Protesters, unhappy with the new system, have resorted to using distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks to disrupt the servers, escalating tensions between the gaming giant and its community.
