it's a strip of moulded timber that you fix at the top of your wall, say a foot down, and then using a picture hook you can hang whatever pictures you like and replace them as many times as you like without doing any more drilling
Composer autoloading is a brea to of fresh air compared to the python packaging Hydra. The only place Python does better is by having a manylinux base that enforces libraries, and provides a way for packages to include native libraries. PHP binary extensions (and similarly Ruby) are ver immature in comparison.
Where there is a choice there is a feud being born. And even worse the most basic it is
At least we now have pyproject.toml, now we need stuff that upgrades the packages in a non-braindead way (and a lot of this is to blame on the maintainers)
If there's one advantage on the "leftpad" way of doing things is that if js had as bad dependency resolution as python all js developers would have been unalived by dependency hell
Controversial opinion: the insistence on the venv bullshit is the stupidest decision made in programming languages in the past twenty years, and it is entirely unnecessary.
I've used Python for more than a decade on Arch Linux, across many machines at home and work. For essentially all of that time, I've been "sudo pip install"-ing to my heart's content. The number of times this has actually caused problems with my own Python scripts is less than the number of times I've had to help colleagues figure out venv bullshit in the past six months alone. The number of times that "sudo pip install" has caused breakage of anything except my own scripts is zero in ten years.
AFAICT the Python core team has essentially no understanding of the level of sophistication and the actual pain points experienced by 95% of Python users. Python is the software equivalent of duct tape, and it is used accordingly. Putting the duct tape in a box that is hard to open and covered with warning labels is not a meaningful improvement.
that’s exactly what the perms are right now. question I am asking, since I have always blindly trusted No Script, is how “accessing browser activity during navigation” related to the simple job of blocking scripts from domain x? And now it wants ip address info too? Why? Keep in mind it worked all these years without additional perms. Most of those are from the last expanded permissions.
The extension could listen for the steps the browser takes to navigate from a link to another page. The extension could then provide new features for the content on the page.
Extensions requesting this permission might:
Detect when streamed videos are about to play and provide a download feature
Look for and prevent ad pop-ups from opening
Leeds is the best paying place outside London overall apparently, better than Cambridge [1]. In all those locations the average salary overall is around the national average, so, again, claiming that 38k is "punitive" for in-demand software devs. is taking the p. especially when the article focusses on London.
