the translation step from binary (program) -> text (SQL) -> binary (server)
Your concern about this is misguided. Inter-process communication always has to cross a barrier, by definition.
I take it http also feels wrong to you?
Binary protocols do exist, e.g. gRPC, but they incur costs of their own.
Shame I had to scroll this far to find PRQL
I’m getting started with i3, so I get your point now.
Pure FUD. Worse, it’s wilfully stupid.
Are you in the habit of picking pipeline commands at random? Do you not usually have a purpose in mind? OBVIOUSLY the receiving end has to understand what it’s receiving, or what the fuck are you even doing?
Do you believe that your text processing commands don’t have to understand what they receive?
Let’s get the ports of the node container.
Bash:
docker ps | grep node | cut -n 6 -f ' '
Pwsh:
docker-ps | where name -eq 'node' | select ports
First the grep command shits the bed because at some point you started a new container running a nodejs image.
Then the cut command fails because you had a container with a space in the name, so it outputs mounts instead of ports.
That’s a non-issue with sematic tools. Semantic tools are also legible. Yeah, I can figure out what that awk command does, but it’s meaningless unless I also know the shape of the data is supposed to operate on.
You don’t write “USE 2nd DATABASE; SELECT 3rd COLUMN FROM 10th ROW”, do you? Why would you want to do that in a shell?
Ate you joking? Auto-complete works out of the box, it’s a shell feature. Install pwsh and save keystrokes.
What’s wrong with Virtual Desktops on windows? They work perfectly for me.
No argument with your other points.
My understanding is that the Windows terminal sucks? I don’t know why, it just looks bad.
Your understanding is wrong. I’ve tried 8 different terminals on mac, arch and kubuntu, and I miss Windows Terminal every day. It looks good and the config is a pleasure. I don’t expect Linux to look pretty, but MacOS had fucking awful font rendering and it’s supposed to be this upmarket OS for moneyed pricks in black turtlenecks. Was everyone in unixland busy doing drugs while Microsoft was implementing anti-aliasing? Is clear legible type for losers?
That’s Teams. Slack used to be a CPU hog too, but Teams is a real piece of shit. And occasionally it used to just peg one core at 100% until I killed it.
I’m so glad I quit that company.
You want to have a superficial little rant about how much you hate microsoft. It’s uninformed and boring, and you’re not going to learn anything in that mindset.
C# is an excellent language for many circumstances. If you knock off the attitude, I’d be willing to explain to you why it’s so widely used.
The content is still on Reddit. That’s why we want to grow.
There are many similar. The best is GoWin R86S
…or MIPS…
Big fan of Mikrotik, but it helps to have some experience.
Haven’t tried hex, but RB2011 would be my default recommendation, and I’ve seen RB4009 for ~£120 (bargain of the century!)
Allow, if you’re still alive
Six to eight years to arrive in low solar orbit
Excavator in rack-mount enclosure would be awesome
Do what now? Sorry, I’m a frontend developer, I don’t have much experience with C##
Forsooth, this cipher speaketh not in tongues
Of men and servers of this era born;
Unknown and babbling, let this wretch be shunned
And do his SSL connexion scorn.
And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow
But if the offer’s shunned, you might as well be installing solar panels on the sun
Yes it is a theory about a conspiracy. However, it’s not a “conspiracy theory”.
A “conspiracy theory” is, by definition, lunatic - e.g. chemtrails, fake moon landing, vaccine microchips
A plausible theory about a conspiracy is not a “conspiracy theory” - e.g. Epstein didn’t kill himself, environmentalists protesting a cycling event are a false flag op. These may be wrong; they may be ardently believed without sufficient evidence; but they are reasonable explanations for the given facts.
Excellent - I’m about to install it for my aged mother, because windows keeps moving her cheese.
I want something that doesn’t change the workflows once she’s learned how to do a task, and that local techs can help her with, and that I can VNC to when I have to.
