How much time do you have to program in edge cases? If I had the time and it were me, I’d parse for single number and return a single element. A single number with colon would give the front/back portion of the list accordingly. And two numbers gives the inclusive range.

Then in terms of if you get a zero, swap to zero index mode since they clearly want the start of the list or reject the command explaining the argument isn’t zero-based (probably best to reject just for consistency).

The docs/help page will be key here. That and consistency across your app when it comes to zero vs one indexing.

I think it would depend on the typical user base and how the rest of the cli operates. If it’s typical array work or your users are typically programmers or otherwise know computing, then stick to 0 based indexing. If they’re users of spreadsheets and rarely interface with zero-based indicies, then stick to what they know. Just document it well enough for everyone!

I’d also think inclusive is more intuitive. If they only want one element, then they can provide the single element, otherwise they get the full range.

Although, if your cli is trying to mimic another programming function. If it’s very clear that’s the intent, then follow the functionality of the parent function.

Be careful asking too many questions as most people won’t read and you’ll end up denying perfectly fine users. You’ll also end up reading essays for each application, which is tedious at best. A simple, “what about <this Lemmy instance> makes you want to join us instead of another instance?” would probably work perfectly fine.

It’s a very valid question and I think it comes down to an individual’s situation and circumstances. Not many can afford to actually leave or have family, friends, other ties to their home that they cannot emotionally afford to leave. Others struggle in how they can support efforts to fight for their rights or simply don’t have the physical or emotional reserves to make such a fight. I think the only truly ethically irresponsible answer would be to do the opposite that you are able and willing to do. I could never judge someone for leaving or for staying; it’s not really a mark of their character.

I’ve been using porkbun for a few years now and it’s been cheap, simple, and easy to use.

I’m not sure I understand the need for charging to play media on a private server when not on the local network. Why is this no longer going to be free? I’m glad I bought a lifetime pass many many years back but I definitely wouldn’t pay for Plex nowadays with alternatives being comparable. What a silly choice they made~

Teams is just a combination of Skype and Slack but with integrations for the rest of the MS ecosystem. Plenty of alternatives if you separate out the functionality you truly need.

Fuck no! I always found it funny how communities find specific words offensive and look down upon people that use them. Context is important, of course, but the vast majority of cases I witness people swearing are non malicious in nature. (Don’t get me wrong, there are absolutely words/phrases I will never say; again, context is key here)

Coming up with alternative words for the same intent is super silly to me, too. The individual makes it very clear they are aware of the “rules” and are making an asserted attempt to sidestep them. Why bother with all that effort and not simply use the intended word instead?

Take a week and build a Voron. The kits are super easy to piece together and you end up with an insanely great, reliable printer for a fraction what it should cost. Yes, the build time and initial calibration might take a bit, but mine’s been without issue, printing 24h long prints perfectly for over a year now. You don’t need to settle for a mediocre built printer if you have the patience to piece together one. Not to mention, since you built the kit, you know how to troubleshoot any issues that pop up much faster than something you pulled out of a box and plugged into the wall.

Tampermonkey will do what you need. It’s not point and click, but writing the custom script shouldn’t be too difficult for someone very new. You essentially just need to complete a find and replace upon page load. The %2F and similar costs are just ASCII characters in percent-encoding and can easily be parsed.

I’m unsure what benefit you get from this though. It seems skimfeed is just trying to capture which lists and posts get visited so they can adjust the site according to popularity. Doing this via an exit link removes any need for cookies (which I didn’t check for, so maybe this ain’t what they’re using it for).

You can self host with Vaultwarden! It’s just the server; you use the same Bitwarden clients.

Unless it’s a single origin bean, it’s probably a blend anyway. I just blend the leftovers with the new beans and call it a good cup. I’ll try to find a complimentary roast, though. e.g. mixing a light roast with a dark roast leads to an odd cup.

Acrylic paints are your friend here. They last a long while in their bottles and you can keep a palette for a few days when using a wet palette. start with just using a brush and jump up to an airbrush if you want to cover a bigger area or do fancy stuff (an air brush is far from required). As another commenter said, the minipainting community has a ton of resources, text and video tutorials, and willing to provide constructive feedback if you want it.

Just remember: thin your paints~

Maybe look at Astro and develop a lightweight blog post admin panel to create, edit, and delete posts. Should be relatively easy and you should be able to render out a static site from it each time you need to update it.

I’ve had a lot of success taking the rules that YNAB uses and applying to my own budgeting method. I recommend checking out Actual Budget if you’re capable of self-hosting and want a fancier software instead of a spreadsheet. The rules are key, though; pick a methodology/mindset you agree with and stick with it.

Someone alert the avali!

We could always do a simple pride pawb, too.

I’ve only been playing the past handful of games but it’s a fun daily puzzle. I find it interesting that I either get sub 5 minute times or over 50 minute times. Lol

Hopefully they don’t go out of their way to try to lock you into using their VTT. I’m not a fan of Roll20 myself but as long as they let Demiplane be themselves and keep it mostly open for third party plugins to do their thing, we should be alright in the long run.

Note to self: go tent camping in Europe

I love meeting random local cats that are super chill and cuddly like this~

Sadly mice aren’t really a BIFL item given their frequent use and how switches have a lifespan before wearing out. You can surely get many many years out of one, though!

I’ve found the Logitech g502 to be my favorite overall mouse, so much so that I bought one to keep at work. The scroll wheel mode on Logi mice is lovely for precision work (clicky) or fast and smooth; a feature I missed greatly when I tried other mice. My first one started dying after 5 years but that was used for regular gaming sessions on the daily.

Don’t be afraid of the extra buttons on gaming mice, either. You can always just not use them but I’ve found the buttons on top incredibly useful as an undo/redo pair and makes working in anything so much nicer.

That being said, the best mouse is the one you find comfortable. Build quality is kinda the same amongst most brands. If you can work with circuits, repair is easy for any mouse. Optical switches and scroll wheels are cool but will need more stringent cleaning (my Corsair M65 had issues regularly because of cat hair somehow sneaking in).
