Is there any disadvantage of doing it this way that I should be aware of? In general whitelisting is the best way to sanitise, but it does create important error classes, especially missing it...
You are correct in your analysis (though I would not call new_b a "parameter" but a captured variable). What you want is for the closure (anonymous function) to take responsibility for new_b and n...
What I want: An object that contains a function that I can update after creation. I created a struct that contains a parameter b and a function(closure?) named Internal_Fn. struct MyThing { ...
Asking customer service-related questions is generally offtopic unless there is a connection to the software development process. Taking your examples one by one: How do I get my Facebook deve...
If I try to rename a tag to an existing one it silently fails. Example: trying to rename data-archiving to archiving fails with console error only: application-f4dc10c11dc65439a992f7c98cb554bfbc...
From your description ... I have text (xml actually) files. Some files contain 'foo', some contain 'bar', some contain neither and some contain both. It's the both I'm interested in. ... I co...
I asked this trivial question recently: DocuSign eSignature API SDK: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError errors. It turns out, my problem was because I did not do enough research before asking a quest...
The best approach is probably to just check the script beforehand, something like the following grep import script.py should list all imports and you can then evaluate and install them. If you...
The reason to put tests in a separate module is so they are grouped. Another advantage is that you can put helper functions that are only needed for tests, but are not themselves tests in the modu...
Context I have started working on an Angular upgrade for a medium-sized project (from v. 10 to v. 15) and this is a rather long activity that is interrupted by other changes that need to be perfor...
When I run pip install foo, pip looks for foo in PyPi. I want it to look for it first in a private repo, let's say pypi.bar.com. Only if foo cannot be found in pypi.bar.com, should pip then look f...
I think the main reason to do this is when the interfaces fail to account for some subtlety of the contract between caller and implementation. For example, let's pretend for a moment that your use...
Perl is by far the language I have the most experience with, and I have (big) parts of the functionality I want in the new program in existing programs. So I'm looking for a way to do this in perl,...
I get an error page with server error 500 when clicking the link to view my suggested edit activity on my activity page. The suggested edit has the status helpful. Error ID 6ca4f8c8-4a0d-425d-8e09...
If you are planning to share the application with individual users (rather than deploying it to a server), declaring your module dependencies explicitly allows jlink to create a stripped-down Java ...
Context Using the lemmy API, I'm trying to get a list of sublemmies (lemmy communities) that a user is following. Reading the documentation, I using the /site endpoint, I should be able to get a ...
I am looking for a way to programmatically edit and save .dbc files that are meant for J1939 CAN communication. I have a few large files that need to be compared/edited. Being able to import, edit...
You are a thoughtful person, aren't you? /me bows in thanks I for one think it would be valuable, even if you were to port it as is. In other words: it's valuable. Period. I like what Stephen s...
Yes Quick starting with an API is definitely ontopic and especially helpful for newbies who struggle to understand the "spirit" of that API. Even if nobody else from the community is into Google ...
Credit go to @Lundin for pointing me in the right direction. Kvaser has a CAN SDK free of charge. I added this to my VS22 C# project by adding "...\Kvaser\Canlib\dotnet\x64\netstandard2.0\Kvaser...
I have created a tag in my project, using git tag v2023 However, I forgot to commit a few changes. Now I would like to move this tag to the current point (after having committed the changes I had...
You can (forcibly) replace a tag with the -f, --force flag: git tag -f v2023 (assuming the current HEAD is where you want the tag to end up)
The way your code handles the variable i within the for loop seems to indicate a wrong understanding of the meaning of for i in range(1,n+2): range(1,n+2) will provide an object of type range. ...
The question is about libraries that extend the data type system to ensure physically realistic computations. Think std::chrono but for distance and mass and other things as well as for time. Inste...
On branch-x, I do git merge branch-y Now there are some conflicts, and git status shows Changes to be committed: new file: a new file: b Unmerged paths: (use "git a...
