Question Should we disallow ChatGPT-User crawler (and others) from scraping Software Codidact?
Stack Overflow has recently announced OverflowAI and I think this video summarises pretty well this. The main drawback is that the users are less incentivized to put effort into answering questions and have this effort being fed into SO's LLM. I am wondering if it makes sense to start blocking kno...

Comment Post #289121 Ref. to " I don't like to type a long URL software.codidact.com every time to view the front page." - this should not be an issue with modern browsers which (by default) store the URL history and use it to provide URL autocompletion.

Comment Post #289085 Is `value = "["SCD"]["CL0"]"` valid syntax in Python? It looks like those double quotes are not escaped. Ref. to "the data types do not agree and changing the data type does not help" - can you provide more context? do you receive an error? if yes, which is it? which types are involved? (actual vs...

Comment Post #289027 localStorage is typically handled similarly to other "side effects" (e.g. HTTP calls) and the operations related to it are handled outside of the reducer functions (e.g. middlwares). [createListenerMiddleware](https://redux-toolkit.js.org/api/createListenerMiddleware) seems up to do this.

Comment Post #289027 I have experience working with ngrx (an Angular similar approach) and I have noticed that your reducer functions mutate de state. AFAIK, the reducer functions should be pure and one typically returns the new state (clone initial state + make changes + return). For example ` const authPending = (...

Comment Post #289016 Transferring such content is a great idea. I am wondering if it makes sense to split in Q&As for each specific error/case. Pros: - an answer is more to the point and does not mix somewhat unrelated errors/issues - easier to link to the answer in case of duplicate questions Cons: - requires...

Comment Post #288993 Is it possible to debug step by step? `post_comment_to_lemmy` is doing quite a lot of stuff and it would be a quick way to find out where the program "hangs".

Comment Post #288764 Under normal circumstances, simply defining a branch would do the job (I am using a different branch anyway). It is the actual switch time between the branches that's killing me.

Answer A: Self answered questions about an unclear quickstart
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 Apps Script API right now, I am pretty sure it will help future readers. If you have the time, pl...

Question Possible drawbacks for having duplicate local sources of the project tracking the same Git remote
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 performed on the same project. I have created another branch for the upgrade, but switching back to anoth...

Answer A: How to move Rancher Desktop virtual disk file to another location?
It seems that the file can be moved if rancher data is exported unregistered from WSL and reimported in a new location. The process is very similar to the one used for Docker Desktop. Example for my case: - `wsl -l -v` to get the distro name: WSL distro list - `wsl --shutdown` - `wsl --e...

Question How to move Rancher Desktop virtual disk file to another location?
I am using Rancher Desktop as an alternative to Docker Desktop. After using docker for a while I have noticed that `C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\data\ext4.vhdx` has grown quite a bit (20GB+) and it's taking a lot of space from the system drive space. I know that can I can "prune" it (rem...

Comment Post #288572 @Wicket I am glad that you joined the tag editing party. From time to time I have noticed that tags behave strangely (I am putting the blame on some aggressive caching) by not being consistent between views after some additions/editing/merges are being made and sometimes being rolled back.

Comment Post #288576 I also agree with the idea of VBA-related questions being on-topic and the formula-related or other Excel usage ones as off-topic, unless they are linked to the usage of certain Excel generation libraries (e.g. ClosedXML, EPPlus) which might have affected formulas and/or other features.
