The face being preferrable kind of makes sense to me, since cats will often socialize by rubbing their heads against each other…

Damn, that’s a thicc case then. Probably a good idea, though, when you give it to a kid, especially a kid trapped in VR…

Is that a VR Etch A Sketch? I’m not sure, I understand the future either…

Python goes brrr… 🫠

They cause a huge amount of load, deteriorating the service for everyone else. I’m also guessing the time ranges in the graph, where there’s no data, is when OP’s server crashed from the load and had to restart.

That kind of shit can easily trigger alerting and will look like a DDoS attack. I would be pissed, too, if I dropped everything to see why my server is going down and it’s not even proper criminals, but rather just some silicon valley cunts.

My best guess is that they don’t just index things, but rather download straight from the internet when they need fresh training data. They can’t really cache the whole internet after all…

Me, who practically only buys cotton and does not own an iron:

I am skeptical how I might use it to start a campfire even though it’s supposed to be a camping tool.

Could probably light some tinder with it, like thin twigs or dry grass…

Hmm, to my knowledge, tx generally means “transmit”, as opposed to rx – “receive”.

I don’t think, there is much logic to it…

Do I want to know how they attached that quiver to her bikini bottom?

Used to drive along a road where you would always get stuck behind a truck sooner or later, with no way to overtake for many kilometers. Whether it was sportscars or suicidal van drivers or me keeping a steady pace, everyone always got stuck behind the same damn truck.

Really would’ve liked a radio intercom thingamabob, to tell people that we can save fuel by going 10 under and still get stuck behind a truck in due time.

You can do that where I live, but you can also borrow musical instruments in the library here, so no idea, if that’s universal…

Screenshot the document, then paste it into a new document.

…I am just joking, I have no idea what they mean either. 🙃

Welp, I posted my hot take that impl Deref is similar to inheritance as a meme in [email protected]: https://lemmy.ml/post/42514248

Now, let’s see how many feathers get ruffled. 🙃

Oh wow, what the hell. I’m not actually familiar with C++ (just with Rust which gets similar reactions with the ampersands), but that’s insane that it just copies shit by default. I guess, it comes from a time when people mostly passed primitive data types around the place. But yeah, you won’t even notice that you’re copying everything, if it just does it automatically.

And by the way, Rust did come up with a third meaning for passing non-references: It transfers the ownership of the object, meaning no copy is made and instead, the object is not anymore allowed to be used in the scope that passed it on.
That’s true, except for data types which implement the Copy trait/interface, which is implemented mostly for primitive data types, which do then get treated like C++ apparently treats everything.

I guess, if you come from garbage-collected languages, you might be used to not needing the ampersands, because everything is automatically a reference in those…

Ah yeah, via deref coercion, which is also called “auto-dereferencing” at times. Not to be confused with “auto-referencing”, which is also a thing^[1].

You can do some wild shit with deref coercion. And when I say “wild”, I guess, I’m talking about the most normal thing for Java devs, because well, it’s a lot like inheritance. 😅

Basically, this concept of being able to pass &String into a parameter that takes &str also applies to the self parameter. Or in other words, methods implemented on str can also be called on String, as if String extends str.
And well, obviously you can also make use of that yourself, by writing your own wrapper type. You can even “override” existing methods in a sense by re-defining them in the wrapper type.

I had to play around a bit with it myself, so here’s a playground: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2024&gist=af65ed396dec88c8406163acaa1f8f8d

The rule of thumb I always tell people is that they should generally put owned data into struct fields and references into function parameters.

There’s all kinds of injuries or fatigue symptoms that may mean you can move your legs and sit, but you cannot stand…
