This very common problem, and you'd imagine that a developer would use one of the many common solutions to this problem. The language, in this case, is JavaScript, which has many possible options for iterating across an array. Perhaps that buffet of possible options was too daunting. Perhaps the developer thought to themselves, "a for each loop is easy mode, I'm a 10x programmer, and I want a 10x solution!" Or perhaps they just didn't know what the hell they were doing. Regardless of why, this is the result: try { var index = 0; while (true) { var nextItem = someArray[index]; doSomethingWithItem(nextItem); index++; } } catch (e) { } This code iterates ac ...

Unfortunately, properly configuring a code coverage tool is too hard, so someone came up with a delightful solution: just count how many lines are in your tests and how many lines are in your code, and make sure that your tests make up 75% of the total codebase. Given those metrics, someone added this test: public void testThis() { int i = 0; i++; i++; i++; i++; i++; // snip 35,990 lines i++; i++; i++; i++; } Keep adding lines, and you could easily get close to 100% code coverage, this way.

For example, in this C++ code, they have a vector of strings. The goal is to create a map where the keys are the strings from the vector, and the values are more strings, derived from a function call.

From a report: There has also been a rise in "big puff" vapes which are bigger and can hold up to 6,000 puffs per vape, with single use vapes averaging 600. Three million of these larger vapes are being bought every week according to the research, commissioned by Material Focus, and conducted by Opinium. 8.2 million vapes are now thrown away or recycled incorrectly every week. From June 2025 it will be illegal to sell single-use vapes, a move designed to combat environmental damage and their widespread use by children.

  • To Log Into WordPress, You Now Have To Agree Pineapple on Pizza Is Good
    WordPress co-founder and CEO of Automattic Matt Mullenweg is trolling contributors and users of the WordPress open-source project by requiring them to check a box that says "Pineapple is delicious on pizza." From a report: The change was spotted by WordPress contributors late Sunday, and is still up as of Monday morning. Trying to log in or create a new account without checking the box returns a "please try again" error. Last week, as part of the ongoing legal battle between WP Engine and Automattic, the company that owns WordPress.com, a judge ordered Mullenweg to remove a controversial login checkbox from WordPress.org that required users to pledge that they were not affiliated with WP Engine before logging in.

  • Google DeepMind Unveils a New Video Model To Rival Sora
    Google DeepMind announced a next-gen video-generating AI tool to rival OpenAI's Sora. Called Veo 2, it can generate AI video clips longer than two minutes with resolutions up to 4K (4096 x 2160). TechCrunch reports: In Google's experimental video creation tool, VideoFX, where Veo 2 is now exclusively available, videos are capped at 720p and eight seconds in length. (Sora can produce up to 1080p, 20-second-long clips.) VideoFX is behind a waitlist, but Google says it's expanding the number of users who can access it this week. Eli Collins, VP of product at DeepMind, also told TechCrunch that Google will make Veo 2 available via its Vertex AI developer platform "as the model becomes ready for use at scale." "Over the coming months, we'll continue to iterate ...

  • AI Helps ID Paint Chemistry of Berlin Wall Murals
    An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: The fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989 was a seminal moment in 20th century history, paving the way for German reunification. Many segments, both large and small, were preserved for posterity -- including portions covered in graffiti or murals. A team of Italian scientists used a combination of spectroscopic analysis and machine learning to study paint chips from wall fragments to learn more about the chemistry of the paints and pigments used, according to a new paper published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. [...] Nondestructive techniques like Raman spectroscopy are often used to identify the molecular signatures of pigments, dyes, and other chemical compounds, but this usually r ...

  • EU Signs $1 Billion Deal For Sovereign Satellite Constellation To Rival Starlink
    An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: The European Union is forging ahead with plans for a constellation of internet satellites to rival Elon Musk-owned Starlink, after signing a $11.1 billion deal to launch nearly 300 satellites into low- and medium-Earth orbits by 2030. The bloc wants the space tech to boost its digital sovereignty by providing secure comms to governments. First announced in 2022, Iris^2 (Infrastructure for Resilience, Interconnectivity and Security by Satellite) is a public-private partnership whose initial cost estimate (6 billion euros) leapt 76% through a fraught negotiation process. In the end, the program will be 61% funded from the public purse; an industry consortium called SpaceRise, selected in October, is making ...

    Arctic Wolf has acquired Cylance, BlackBerry's beleaguered cybersecurity business, for $160 million -- a significant discount from the $1.4 billion BlackBerry paid to acquire the startup in 2018. From a report: Under the terms of the deal, which is expected to close in BlackBerry's fiscal Q4, BlackBerry will sell its Cylance assets to Arctic Wolf for $160 million in cash. BlackBerry will get ~$80 million at closing and the rest of the tranche a year later, along with roughly 5.5 million common shares in Arctic Wolf. Read more of this story at Slashdot. ...

  • Now ChromeOS Can Reset Itself Without Erasing Your Laptop
    An anonymous reader shares a report: Google announced it's rolling out ChromeOS M131 to non-beta users, bringing with it a handy "Safety reset" feature that lets Chromebook users reset their laptops without totally wiping them. The update also introduced a new "Flash notifications" accessibility option to help those who might not otherwise easily hear or see them. Like Powerwash in ChromeOS, Safety reset will wipe the slate clean if you're experiencing computer virus-like behavior such as unusual pop-ups. But where Powerwash is a full factory reset, Safety reset preserves local data and apps, as well as things like bookmarks and saved passwords, according to a help document about the feature.

  • Apple Plans Thinner, Foldable iPhones To Revive Growth
    Apple is preparing a series of major design and format changes to its lineup of iPhones and potentially other products, according to WSJ, a bid to revive growth after years of offering largely incremental upgrades. From the report: Starting next year, Apple plans to introduce an iPhone that will be thinner than the approximately 8-millimeter profile of current models, said people familiar with the company's plans. The model is intended to be cheaper than Pro models, with a simplified camera system to reduce costs. The company is also planning two foldable devices, the people said. A larger device, intended to serve as a laptop, would have a screen that unfolds to be nearly as large as some desktop monitors, at about 19 inches. A smaller model would unfold ...

  • Does ‘goof’ mean something different in Alberta?
    Genuine question here. I grew up in BC. To me the word ‘goof’ is a term of endearment. Someone acting silly is a “goof”. My son is a goof when he’s running around like a nutcase. But on rant and raves when people are arguing they’ll call each other a ‘goof’…and it’s so confusing. Why would you use goof as an insult? Like to me if someone is having a heated argument and they called someone a goof it would be like saying “you know what you are? A silly billy! Take that!” So does it mean something different here?

  • The recent WP hacks along with Matt's tantrums & antics have made me realize one thing as a WP Designer:
    I am constantly in shit. Now I used to be a developer in React (both Web and React Native) but took a huge break from that trying to focus more on my mental health and figuring out what I want to do which turned out to be design and illustration. I used to hate WordPress because I didn't know much about as a developer with his nose in the air. As a designer now, of course I use WordPress for myself and found some clients so I can make a living. I am grateful for this ecosystem and it's community. But I'll be damned if I don't mention how insecure I feel as of late. There have been so many hacks in the system and I don't see much people really reacting as hard I would expect them to so it either tells me that these hacks are a norm in the system or that we ...

    Hey guys, I have been going through a situation for the past 5 months or so. So, I am a webdev for about 3 years now, started at a small startup using pure js and php, like the good old days and then switched to my current company using Java and JSP, working on a big fintech company here where I live. The thing is, I entered the programming world while young, at my 16 years I discovered that I could make games by my own if I sat down and learned programming, and that's what I did, started with a local game development course that was shutdown due to the lack of interest from local teens. Switched my course to some more generic but still related to IT. As I said, nowadays, I work as a full-time java developer, but my dream always has been of developing games, ...

  • SQL database design for storing tags
    Completely rookie dev here. My application allows admins associated to a specific organisation to create custom tags and tag organisational resources (PDFs, images etc.) that can later be filtered. I'm using PosgreSQL. My initial idea is having a Tags table with Organisational ID, Admin ID (who created the tag), Tag ID, and Tag Name. Then associate the Tag ID to specific organisational resources. But then each resources can have multiple tags so not sure what's the solution here. I'm more familiar with NoSQL where one way is to just store the tags of a resource object as an array of Tag objects Is there a better way of doing it? I have a RAG who should be able to query the database for specific tags by name so that might complicate things Edit: Thanks for th ...

    Hey, So I'm on Mysql 5.7 and the database that my company is using is built by someone who does not know anything about the SQL language (me 4 years ago). Now that I know a bit more I thought it would be a good idea to to start on V2 of my platform and also do the database a bit better. I could migrate in python probably but I feel like it would be a lot of code for a single-run script. Is there a program that handles stuff like this? I want something where I can "drag n drop" which column of data should go where in the new database and then hit "run". submitted by /u/Dense_Mobile_6212 [link] [comments] ...

  • Why is Angular is seen as more hard to learning than React?
    I think is more easy to understand and more similar to HTML + CSS + JS courses that a component has a ts file, a css file and a html file than React JSX Soup. I don't say Angular is better only that I don't see the more hard learning curve. submitted by /u/OkTop7895 [link] [comments]

  • Frontend Completeness
    I am a backend developer now focused on frontend web development. The goal is to offer my services to build static sites, for now, for clients and I want to ensure I am following proper guidelines and ensuring that the site is a complete professional product. My question is what is needed for a professional website to be complete? I am referring to things like sitemaps, SSL certificates, and more that I am not currently aware of? Not so much accessability, styling, and structure. As far as SEO I am sure I can find alot of resources online to ensure I am optimizing the site for this, but feel free to include information on this subject if you wish. This is more about the things that are needed that are not really obvious or taught in frontend courses. Thank ...

  • Anybody with any experience with .wasp?
    Hey folks! Wasp has been bugging me for quite a while and I was wondering if there's anybody who made any noticeable projects with it? It's a cool idea but and I know I could just try it by myself and have fun with it - been thinking if anyone battle-tested it already and could share some opinions :) submitted by /u/Sziszhaq [link] [comments]

  • Better google maps api
    Im using the google maps api both for auto completing cities /addresses and showing the user where the location is with a pinpoint on the map. I have just been testing and already spent 10 cents in an evening which seems like a lot just for me using it. What do you guys use ? submitted by /u/locmp4 [link] [comments]

  • Beginerish web developer front end development through website e.i stackblitz, replit, and codesandbox
    Hey, I'm trying to get away from web hosting platforms. I do like hostgator as a platform but I didn't have a good experience with their free website designer when I first set up my account. In general, I hate distractions from paid-for services by the time I do all the setup through them I'm zapped from creativity. which has been my constant downfall and significant amounts of money paid for nothing gained. Also hard to organize with to a huge loss in productivity that could be better spent elsewhere. I've used Godaddy, and the rebranded eco web hosting as well. Anyway, my goal is to just set up a static website at the moment for my website mission accomplished thanks to Netlify and GitHub Now I'm about to start researching more about web frameworks. May I ...

  • Switched from www to apex on my website, bad idea?
    When I first started my Wordpress website for my business I used the naked/apex domain, and then shortly after setting up DNS/caching/CDN, my CDN provider required that I use the www subdomain and that's what it's been for the last 5 years. I recently got rid of that CDN and switched my DNS to Cloudflare which doesn't have such a restriction. On a whim recently I removed the www in my Wordpress site settings, updated the DNS records for www from A to CNAME and pointed it to my root domain, and Wordpress automatically creates 301 redirects for the requests that include www. Was this a bad idea? Did I just ruin my site's SEO, popularity and rankings? I noticed in Google Search Console I basically have no stats anymore. Maybe it will take time to regenerate wit ...

  • Keep scrolling to view content!

    The loading of this feed has been deferred to save bandwidth.

  • Don't worry, this is on purpose! Promise!

  • At least, it should load... Click here to force the load.

    (For the feeds to actually load, the top of "The Atlantic" feed must reach the top of the browser and you must have a browser width of at least 890px. If your browser is too tall, and the bottom of the browser reaches the bottom of the page before the top reaches the top bound of the browser, the feeds will not load.)

About all this

  • What's this page about?
  • This is a basic start page for my own personal use. Search, random links, lots of rss feeds all aggregated into one.
  • This looks awfully like Popurls!
  • As it should. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and this case is no different. I am not trying to reinvent the wheel, nor taking credit for anything which I do not have due.
  • Then why?
  • This was all an excerscise to further flex my knowledge and tinker with something new.
  • What was flexed?
  • Attempts were made at making a site which thought a bit about usability (although, probably an overload of information at this point) while being fully W3C valid XHTML 1.0 Strict, CSS which is W3C valid (except the hack used in the YUI Reset!), JQuery to drive the fancy stuff, and Python behind the scenes. At least... that was the goal.
  • The page uses skeleton.css along with media queries to give different viewing experiences for wide browsers("desktop")vs small viewing areas ("mobile"). Media queries were selected so one could easily jump between different modes. Some javascript has exceptions to not or to trigger when viewed on "mobile" browsers.
