@joepie91 @pinoaffe Do they? I thought only closures did that, and then only the variables that are actually used.

Okay, I feel the need to share this because people who only speak english may not realize it.

As a french speaker, I'm seeing more and more websites auto-translating their content, because I guess now there's #AI translation and people think it works?

Guess what: the translations are still shit. It was not okay to publish Google-translated websites without a native speaker checking it if you didn't want to be ridiculed, and it's still not okay now, despite all the hype.

Please don't do this.

Well this is worrying.

@aetios This sounded so gross and then I remembered that tofu is not actual tofu.

Yesterday @revspace we made some chain mail, wrote the beginning of C code to convert ASCII to Morse code, and wired together an #Arduino with an LCD display and a button to make a running game.
Later, at home, we got the ASCII-morse code running on another arduino to flash the on-board LED.
We also learned about null terminated strings, pointer arithmetic, and the weird things you can do with for statements in C.

I honestly think that Schuko is the superior household use plug, better than the British one. However, dealing with two of those right angled ones in the same socket is a pain.

@Dany This kind of double socket should be abolished.

The 1½ size backbox slightly cheaper to build than double backboxes, but much less flexible. You can't fit certain things like smart plugs together with a second big plug and indeed having a cable pointing up is awkward.

Horizontal double backboxes are superior for socket outlets. They look better too. Unfortunately I don't have those at home, and changing things over is too much work.

Weirdly, 1½ boxes are still used in new properties.

"redesign" aka "how the software you use daily is gonna get slightly more annoying to use because they moved the icon you use a dozen times a day into a hamburger menu"

that sounds cynical but that's more often the case than not in my experience over the past decade or so of interacting with computer tech
