Another reason could be to allow to perform the merge without auto commit and no fast-forward: git merge the_branch --no-commit --no-ff This allows reviewing the merged changes before they are ...
New LLMs like ChatGPT are now creating competition with Q&A sites like Codidact and StackOverflow. Moreover, this is parasitic: LLMs get "boosted" by Q&A sites because they can use them for...
I have written a screensaver program that, in part, uses the current wallpaper for some visual effects. However, finding the current wallpaper in different operating systems and environments is les...
Remember that jQuery selectors in general can match more than one element. If you had multiple <p> elements in your page, $('p').wrap(wrapper) would put wrapper divs around each of them. So ....
IList<T> is not necessarily representative of the general case; it's an interface that is (A) widely implemented by a variety of classes from a variety of sources, which themselves (B) tend t...
Since I don't think the C standard says anything explicitly about cases like this, it is probably undefined behavior, under the "not mentioned in the standard" variety. If something isn't mentioned...
Note: this is inspired by the comments on this post and especially this one which mentions: We have tags for languages because people have interest or expertise in languages; likewise frameworks...
I started adding types to my (working) solution to Exercism's "Kindergarten Garden" exercise, to learn how typing with python and Mypy (strict) works. While doing so, I ran into a Mypy error that I...
My most recent question was tagged with interface-type. I had seen the interface tag when I was creating the question, but the usage information says Please avoid using this tag, as it is too g...
I'm taking a significant leap by guessing what you are trying to do from your other questions. If you provide some additional info, this answer might become more or less relevent. (I am also using...
Context I am currently working on migrating a legacy application to an ASP.NET Core + Angular application. The Web API's main project is based on Jason Taylor's template (clean architecture) and a...
is there a way to write MockIO so that I don't have to change the signature of IO::println() for the sake of the test class? Yes, implementing mock objects is one of the recommended uses for R...
CPython only very recently started keeping a reference on frames to function objects internally, and that reference isn't exposed from inside Python. There's an old PEP that would have defined a _...
I'd suggest using Black to format the code. While there are a number of formatters, it helps to pick one to make the code consistent. (See https://github.com/psf/black) The use of .update({"excep...
I have a class Foo that prints something to stdout and I want to be able to write tests for it. So I created a trait to abstract println!, and gave it a prod implementation and a test implementati...
I'd like to organize my Matlab packages into folders. However, if I try to lay out my code like this +MyPackage |---foo.m |---SubDir |---bar.m then I'm unable to reach bar. F...
I see it such that it is undefined behavior (I refer to N1570 as the OP https://port70.net/~nsz/c/c11/n1570.html): After free(p), the lifetime of the object pointed to has ended (7.22.3p1: "The li...
I wanted to create a simple static website that would use JS to randomly rotate through a quotes.json file I maintain. My JavaScript experience is more limited as it's not what I do at work, so wha...
It isn't writable (but then again, neither are the dictionary views), but you might be interested in more_itertools.SequenceView.
The scope currently lists as on-topic: Best practices, as long as clear "best" criteria are provided. Examples: fastest execution, least memory use, widest tool support for a target, most begi...
Goal Our goal is to create a kind of table, using HTML/CSS/JS, with cells that expand when you click on them. If you click on a header, the whole row or column will expand. This in itself is not ...
According to the psql (version 14) man page, it's possible to set variables using the -v command-line parameter, then use the variable in a query, automatically quoted correctly, with :'variable_na...
