Daily OpusEverything I write is freely rebloggable. Just keep the source and tell people about my books :D [Until I decide otherwise, my pronouns are Ze/Hir/Hirself. As in "Ze went to the shops to get hir medication hirself". Thank you for the respect.]
We’ve got the database builder. We’ve got the thing to add to the database. We’ve got the thing to find stuff in the database.
Tonight, all being well, we start on the User Interface. Not just for this nerd, but also for my dear readers out there.
Whilst we were finessing the database manipulation nonsense, we had some weird errors. To make sure the right bit of code was activating, we added a single line of code to show us what stuff it was playing with.
Code before we added the single line: Did the wrong thing.
Code after we added the single line: Did the right thing.
Let me be clear. This line was a “console.log()” it just displayed a segment of data onto the console so we knew what it was playing around with. It did JACK ALL to the rest of the code.
Except. Somehow. It made the thing work properly.
Wat.
We removed this one line and… (drumroll)… it still worked.
Dear readers, I think I may have uncovered the coding equivalent of turning it off and turning it back on again. Either that, or my Fickle Finger [aka bad luck with all things technological] has reared its ugly head and this time I have a WITNESS!
Gimmie two more days and we shall have dev/null errors. Which Beloved says do not exist.
Excuse me while I google “the FBI can eat my whole ass” 50 times per day.
Track Me Not is a Firefox add-on (and Chrome extension, but please just uninstall Chrome) that hides your activity in a cloud of noise by googling random phrases. You can modify which search engines it uses, how often it makes searches, and even give it a blacklist of terms to not use in searches.
Thanks I added the fuck out of that.
Okay this is absolutely terrible BUT there is one way you can stop. the bill has gone back to the house and nancy pelosi, head of the house, can put back and support the Wyden/Daines amendment that prevents the Trump admin from spying on your Internet activity without a warrant. but YOU HAVE TO CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE AND TELL THEM TO SUPPORT THE WYDEN/DAINES AMENDMENT .
and when you’re done with that call Nancy Pelosi’s office (202) 930-8115 and tell her to support the amendment. it literally only takes five minutes out of your day. literally get on the phone rn and call.
there is no reason good enough to arrest a 6 year old, this is purely racist
WHAT THE FUCK
WHAT KIND OF THREAT DO YOU EVEN MANIFEST THAT SIX YEAR OLD CHILD HAS TO YOU TO EXCUSE THIS???
THIS IS FUCKING DISGUSTING AND PEOPLE ARE FUCKING MONSTERS FOR DOING THIS/IGNORING THIS/EXCUSING THIS
HOW IS A SIX YEAR OLD BABY THREATENING ENOUGH TO WARRANT THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOUR? WHAT POSSIBLE DEFENSE DO GROWN-ASS OFFICERS HAVE FOR PULLING THIS SHIT?
