I'm not so sure that dynamic libraries always reduces the size. Specially with libraries that are linked by a single binary.

With static libraries, you can conditionally compile only the features you're gonna use. With dynamic libraries, however, the whole library must be compiled.

EDIT: just to clarify, I'm not saying that static libraries result always in less size. I'm saying that it's not a black and white issue.

Napoleon was french, not American.

Road rules exist for a reason. The reason that it's illegal to pass someone on the right lane is that they might turn right without seeing you.

If you're in a bike on the road you should be as careful as you can, since you're a small thing surrounded by heavy giant machines. And those in the cars are mostly only paying attention to other cars.

Cars that are in the rightmost lane don't expect anything to be at their right, since they are already the rightmost, so they are looking at the traffic coming from their left when turning right, they don't look at what's right of them, since there are no cars coming from that direction.

If they didn't vote in 2024, that's because they saw trump and said "yes, this is fine". If they didn't, they would've voted.

Even if they didn't like Kamala, they would've voted for her if they didn't think a trump presidency was acceptable.

Anything more positive for trump than "trump's presidency is not acceptable" means that America is not "better than this".

I think you completely missed the point.

The problem is not that the sign exists, the problem is that people don't see nothing wrong with it.

If you were a Jew, how would you feel if you saw Nazi flags on a men's rights protest? Would you feel safe knowing that men a Nazi is safe around men? (Which probably means many of those men are nazis/nazi sympathizers themselves.).

That's how men feel when they see sexist messages in feminist protests go uncontested.

They should've looked at their star software product: Microsoft access.

You can't be that blind. At pretty much every women's rights protest there is at least someone with a sign up that reads something like "All men are rapists". Sure, the protest might not be about that. Sure, not everyone agrees with that kind of statements. But there's not much opposition either, so that kind of sexist message appears all the time in the news. Furthermore, those spewing sexist bullshit call themselves "feminists", so young men think that feminism is like that, and now they hate feminism too.

EDIT: just as an example, right after writing this comment I saw this other one: https://lemmy.world/comment/13322514 it's impossible to time it better.

Hardware signing stuff is not a real solution. It's security through obscurity.

If someone has access to the hardware, they technically have access to the private key that the hardware uses to sign things.

A determined malicious actor could take that key and sign whatever they want to.

Editor/IDE, whatever. People claim both about jetbrains.

If you want a purely editor-thing:

Whatever vscode does with Ctrl+D (I don't know the name). Ctrl+D is probably the hotkey I use most in vscode (probably more than Ctrl+S), yet CLion doesn't have that. I've searched multiple times the whole settings for it.

Those two examples are just the ones that most recently occurred to me, it has a lot more issues. For example the lack of a staging area. You can't "git stage" in CLion.

And I don't think that the git integration is free from criticism. Git integration is one of the most important features of IDEs. It's absolutely valid to criticize it.

The autoformatter also doesn't work correctly when developing in remote. Which means that unless I want my PRs to have thousands of lines of whitespace changes, I can't use the auto formatter.

Now I don't know if this is a CMake issue or CLion. But at one point It was "#include"ing a struct from a header file I had deleted 1 hour previous to the build failing. The only way to fix that was to create the file again and delete it again.

These complaints might seem small. But put together they are hours of wasted time that you don't expect from the "best" of something.

Don't need to go all the way there. I always heard that jetbrains make the best editors. Yet when my job forced everyone to use CLion I saw that it was just a lie. The editors aren't good, they are just expensive.

There are 2 easy examples:

  1. Remote developing sucks. Loading a remote cmake project takes ages. Yet if you remove the temp directory it's almost instantaneous. Except when you do it too often and clion refuses to sync the files, then you're fucked because there isn't a "sync" button, it only happens automatically.

  2. The commit log is awful. It doesn't by default show you the commit/branch you've checked out, it shows the chronologically most recent commit. There's no "go to checked out commit" button either, you have to write the hash in the search field. Which btw the search is trash. If you write 6 of the characters of the hash it shows "there are no results", yet when you write the 7th, suddenly your commit appears.

In Spanish, chupa means either suck or lick depending on context.

Chupa chups are lick licks.
