it might have looked bad as if she was a sore loser
Honestly, not being a sore loser is what ended her political career. She got nothing out of conceding quickly, especially because Biden and Harris both painted a Trump presidency as a cataclysm for democracy.
If Trump is so bad (spoiler alert: he is), then you can’t just throw in the towel because CBS projects Trump to win Florida. You ultimately become complicit in his victory. And that’s really hard to forgive.
Still being one of the luckiest people in aviation accident history, he may just have opened the door and stood there, and when the plane hit the ground been thrown by chance in the direction out.
Thinking about it, this is probably the best option, statistically. Timing the jump has virtually no chance of succeeding, but if you stand by the door you have an almost 25% chance of being thrown out the right way.
Did you look at Pelican? I share the frustration with much of Hugo’s infrastructure: the template language is buggy and inscrutable, and the plugin architecture wanting.
I ended up with Hugo, but I considered Pelican. It uses standard Jinja templates, which I find much more rational (but it might just be me) and I recall there were plugins for a lot of things, including different source formats. The code is written in Python, so that even if there isn’t a plugin for a format you need, there probably is a Python library for it and it should be relatively easy to make it a plugin.
Crap, now I want to switch to Pelican…
Forty percent of voters have a favorable opinion of President Trump, while 53 percent have an unfavorable opinion of him, and 4 percent haven’t heard enough about him.
WHO are these people that haven’t heard enough about him? And WHY isn’t there “I have heard way too much about him” option in the poll?
Hugo watch mode (both server and build) does not produce accurate sites on change and is really meant for development. I find after a developing for a while, I have to kill the process and restart it and then things are “fresh”
From reading the documentation, I strongly have the impression that hugo focuses on being fast on re-render and that the idea is to build and deploy to public site each time there is a change. The big difference is probably whether to render locally and push the generated content, or to push the source markdown and render remotely (which I chose).
SSH hasn’t had the signing functionality for long, and git support for SSH signatures is even younger. I’d say if you are starting from scratch, SSH signing is simpler and potentially more secure. PGP works, though, and if you have an existing setup, there is no compelling reason to change right now.
I ended up with Hugo, a git repository, and a cron job for the build. I write an article, check it in, the server picks up the git change and rebuilds the site. What I like about the setup is that the server only has the binaries hugo and git, and a shell script for the rebuild. Also, I write in Markdown, add media to the git repository, and articles are published soon after I check in without any remoting on my part.
I did look at WriteFreely after the setup, though. I find the minimalist design very beautiful. Didn’t switch to it, but may look at it again for another project. https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely
Trump got what he wanted. You can be certain that right-wing media will spin this as, “the only reason the troops were idle is that the President’s quick action quelled the protests.”
Oh, look, a political prisoner! We haven’t had one of those in a while. Next, we’ll find out he had an abortion while wearing drag and smuggling fentanyl across the border. /s
The field separator is declared to be the colon, with -F:, so the fields end and start at colons.
Sigh, I so wish you were wrong…
It was really hard to watch. SCOTUS created this monster executive with unlimited and almost unchecked powers, Biden declared that Trump was a danger to democracy itself, and then… crickets. It was heart-breaking that he didn’t even try to curb the limits of power of the Presidency by doing something SCOTUS was going to rule against, handing the next administration everything.
Well, yes: your vote is probably not a conservative vote, so absolutely any reason is good enough to deny you a vote!
I think it’s very telling that the conservatives went for ignoring the vote in this case, to use the voting threshold to sink the change. They know their usual arguments are self-contradicting here, so that counting on laziness is their only (and probably successful) hope.
we traced the issue to a 15-year-old Git function with O(N²) complexity and fixed it with an algorithmic change, reducing backup times exponentially.
I feel like there is something wrong with this sentence.
I completely agree. Unless Google is forced to install more than one app store by default, or forced to have multiple app stores downloadable on Play Store, three is no realistic way to install a third party app store on a phone. In both cases, Google’s cooperation is required.
I feel you. That’s exactly what Putin did. Get rid of one oligarch so the other ones knew what happens if you don’t toe the party line.
I’ve been to Montpellier in France, where residents never have to pay for public transport, and it’s amazing and beautiful how full the trams and buses are all the time. The weird thing is that it benefits the remaining car drivers a lot: if the people in public transportation had to drive around in cars, traffic would come to a complete standstill.
Also counterintuitive: while free public transportation sounds like it might attract the poorest, it does the opposite and reaches into the middle class. The poor never had any other option, but for the middle class it became the better option. Which I think is important, because the middle class has a lot more in common with the lower class, but media prevents one from seeing the other.
That’s just the start. After the tax cuts start working their way, there is going to be a massive shortfall in public funding, and then the, “Who could have seen this coming?” will start and then the real Tightening of the Belt.
Well, yes, of course! I mean, for a hundred years Harvard hosted foreign students, but NOW they are a security threat.
It must be really hard to be a lawyer or judge facing these cases, knowing that if you laugh you are going to become the next national security threat.
It’s a real shame. Great framework but based on a single purpose language by a company known to drop projects on a whim. I loved to play with it, but I can’t imagine sinking a lot of dev hours into it, knowing it could just disappear.
