The “Infinite monkey theorem” concerns itself with Probability (the mathematical field). It has been mathematically proven that given the random input (the mathematical kind - not the human-created kind) of the monkeys, and the infinite time, the probability of the “complete works of William Shakespeare” rolling out of the typewriter in between the other random output is 1.

It’s a mathematical theorem that just uses monkeys to speak to the imagination, not a practical exercise, other than to prove the maths.

You should look into another brain-breaking probability problem called the “Monty Hall Problem”. Note that some of the greatest mathematical minds of the time failed said puzzle. Switching 100% increases the chance of winning. No, it won’t guarantee a win, but it will increase your chances, mathematically.

Aw boo! Where is your sense of fantasy!?

decaf - white clouds

It starts with a nice piano, when the bass drops.

The original song is Ludovico Einaudi - Nuvole Bianche, but that’s missing some oomph :P

Luke Smith made video about this several years ago: Virgin “Open Source” vs Chad Free Software

He ends the video with “I don’t care if the boot-stamping on my head is proprietary or open source. I don’t want a boot stamping on my head. That’s what Free Software is about, okay!?”

This has been going on for a while, but it’s good to shine a light on it once more.

“for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God” - Exodus 20:5

Says it all, really. This whole character trait is that he’s a jealous little asshole. He’s like Dolores Umbridge.

I’m aware Christians may make counter-claims, but I’ve read the old testament, and all he does is to come off as an absolute asshole - you either worship me, or else!

I wasn’t too surprised (but it made sense) that he (Elohim) originally came from the Canaanitic pantheon. How else can you be the only god, yet people shouldn’t worship other gods? He’s not, that’s how.

Determinate Nix is not a fork of Nix—it is a downstream Nix distribution. Its

Ah, I initially figured they would’ve forked it. Good, as it’ll prevent the community in general to completely split and potentially splinter.

*Freedom of Expression

We don’t have Freedom of Speech, but we do have Freedom of Expression. Important difference, even though it may freak out some Americans.

LineageOS, maybe? Still Android, but (AFAIK) more open to change than standard Android.

So sad when it happens…

I don’t follow - do people still seriously use SMS? I for one try to use it as little as possible.

Don’t both Windows and MacOS call it folders, and Linux calls it directories?

It’s still a draft, but that’s just a weirdly unnecessary change, IMO. There is no need from anyone to have the versions shift by 11 versions.

Here’s a better overiew: https://devguide.python.org/versions/

Oh man, I remember this from years ago when the only 1-up on Minecraft it had, was that I could run it at 60 FPS, infinite chunks in all directions, no extreme lag spikes while generating the map, and further view distance.

Zero mods back then, so I’m happy to see the mod support!

Shouldn’t it? Yes, just like the ability to unit test, but that doesn’t stop schools from skipping over them either.

Learn how to test (which is also what the article recommends).

Write unit tests. Write property-based tests. I don’t care which ones, but automate the SHIT out of your tests.

Also curse at your school for not teaching you this from day one.

Alas, I don’t know any articles or books on how to learn, because school didn’t teach me either. I learned the theory from Uncle Bob, among some others, but had to learn the actual work from work…

What about ballsweat?

Topologically speaking, the frog is a donut.

One year left, before W10 support goes out the Window.

If not STEM, then HEAL? (Health, Education And Learning)

Protip: pip install pyupgrade And then find . -name '*.py' -not -path '*.tox*' -print0 | xargs -0 pyupgrade --py310-plus in your repo to update what can be updated.

BTW, pyupgrade’s creator, asottile (that’s his name) also has an informative channel: Anthony Writes Code where he explains Python features, or goes into interesting bugs he ran into, etc. The good stuff.
