yeah, I did get it to transpile with the babel command, but I couldn't get it to accept the babel-env preset, so it just transpiled from modern javascript to modern javascript, which is not very useful
on the note of babel, I don't usually do front end stuff but the other day I wanted to transpile one single javascript file to support older browsers, one time and then never again. I tried for like an hour and I could not figure out how to do it, without setting up like a whole environment/pipeline for it. My expectation going into it was "surely there's some sort of command that just lets you do input file -> output file", but i struggled until I just gave up and used their web demo thing to do it (which tbh I should have just done to begin with, but I had not anticipated it would be so difficult).
I mean I'm sure it's possible somehow, but it sure isn't obvious. And I get that this is not at all the usual use case for it, but still
yeah, a book is a particularly strange object to do that with. It's not like it's going to have gold rims, automatic spill prevention and drop parachute, and self-reading abilities. it's probably going to be some textbook
Yes, unfortunately this is often the case. people who don't really use or test the site in tor put in some half-baked support and it just ends up making things worse. But my grievances aside (and please don't take this personally, it's just an issue that I've encountered one too many times, so it gets on my nerves), thank you for fixing it, and indeed it looks like the onion URL is now online, it wasn't working for me earlier.
if there's one thing I hate, it's websites "supporting" tor by redirecting from a specific article to the main page of their (in this case non-functional) onion URL.
twitter did this too a while back, they made a big show of how they're supporting tor now, and now whenever i click a link to a tweet via tor, it redirects me to their frontpage.
thanks, can you stop supporting tor now please, so I can use the site with tor again?
the pine phone has end user replaceable firmware for its LTE modem. there exists an unofficial open source alternative for the official firmware (which incidentally has vulnerabilities that quectel seems to be unwilling to patch)
dicts are just a little too easy to use. You just smear it down, pass it around, and you're in business. If you really want to shoot yourself in the foot, also modify its structure here and there along the way, it's just so convenient. Who needs all that hassle of declaring a data class for each little thing?
It took me a little too long to realize that a data class represents a contract about the structure of your data, meaning that no matter how many calls deep you are passing it around, you will always know its structure without having to trace it back to the origin, and that's a powerful thing.
i hate the english version of amazon.de, for some reason amazon keeps activating this for me, and now whenever i type in an english book title it "helpfully" translates it to german
