Problem was my_line is owned by _model and cannot be moved. Copying the entire my_line is apparently not possible, but what worked is making an element-wise copy of my_line, which is of type (Poin...
I'm new to D and am planning to use it for golfing. I want to make a ROT13 converter and I want to determine the length of an inputted string. Is there a function for this? If not, what ways can I...
Consider this code: while(arr[index] != 0) index++; vs while(arr[index] != 0) { index++; } Personally, I prefer the first. The fact that the braces are not needed makes them -- u...
I propose removing this from the off topic list System/network/server administration. I am not an expert, but I believe a lot of this has software implications. For example, a SQL AlwaysOn cluste...
Please no. I had a bad experience of SO's failed and cancelled "Documentation" project. I raised the same concerns on the Electronics site here. I'll quote that post: The worst that can happen is ...
I propose that the following is added as off-topic: Off-topic Questions with artificial requirements and no practical use, including code golf and code obfuscation. This also covers artificial hom...
How much research effort is expected from the asker by the community? The kinds of research I expect varies with the question type. Before asking us ... about concepts or the meaning of wor...
I am cleaning up java code in vscode to make it more readable. When I format my document there are instances when vscode inserts new line character when I don't want it. Here I show 2 examples of w...
I'd like to write a TCP client in Rust that can receive the entire message sent by a server, but I have no information about the length of a message. I'm aware that TCP doesn't preserve message bo...
I heard git pull is dangerous. Is it really dangerous? If so, why or how is it dangerous? Are there any flags that mitigate or remove the danger? What are the alternatives if it...
I have been using open-source software, and the open-source Community is great at maintaining such projects. But I have observed something in smaller open-source projects. Whenever I demand some f...
I haven't used Doxygen that much, but after checking the documentation and looking around online, it looks like the reason this might be happening is because the SHOW_USED_FILES setting which (if I...
Seconded. This looks accidental, since the height is set to 20em, but the line-height is set to 1.5em, resulting in 20/1.5 = 13 lines being displayed. I wonder what that line-height is for? I know ...
During my review of the posts and tags, I have seen the tools tags. It is very generic and I am sure if it is helpful. What do you think?
One thing to consider if you decide to store the CSS in version control is how to make sure that the CSS is always updated whenever the SASS is updated. (Of course this is true of the more general ...
I'm facing rsync full syncs every once upon a time, I think it's because DST, notice an hour of difference: $ ls -l tier2/VIDEO-2020-06-17-15-10-27.mp4 /Volumes/KINSTON2/dat/laptop_kinstones/tier2...
The manual writes: In contrast to CHAR, VARCHAR values are stored as a 1-byte or 2-byte length prefix plus data. The length prefix indicates the number of bytes in the value. A column uses one len...
EDIT: This discussion thread is mostly obsolete now that a new draft has been posted on the site. Please take further discussion & proposals to this meta post instead: Community feedback: What ...
Whenever I've worked with CMake-based projects, the structure has been something like this: project src <-------- typically this is a source control working directory CMakeLists.txt ...
I think the closest thing to what the post body is suggesting is offline mode: Connected client users who do not have the SUPER privilege are disconnected on the next request, with an appropriate...

I would define a hook as: A piece of code which changes the response to a certain event, without changing the original code that caused the event How is that different than "code injection", if a...
Ah. There's a good reason the compiler says it can't find the file: it's not there. In my particular case, BeepBoop.hpp actually gets automatically generated from other files by the ordinary build ...
When looking for Perl modules to handle JSON strings and/or documents, I found JSON::PP and JSON::XS. The documentation of JSON::PP says it is compatible with JSON::XS. What do these suffixes me...
