This is a wonderfully even-keeled and informative Rust vs. C++ Exchange on the SE Daily Podcast with Steve Klabnik and Herb Sutter. If you are looking for some ideological slug fest you will be disappointed. Check it out! #rust #cpp #programming youtu.be/XdHBSxDsVlM?si=gS2kzj…


Being a computer scientist, I plan to teach a ten-year-old some basic programming concepts. Given that I am blind and he is sighted, can anyone please suggest a platform that does not bore him to death by confining him to text-only while at the same time being accessible to me so that I can check what he's doing and where he needs help? #blind #accessibility #programming


#humans make me sad.

#CURL is my lovely gem, a masterpiece they ever created, but what do I see on their documentation pages? This:

CURLcode res = ...
if(!res) {
...

That's how they check for success, meow.

On, no. Meow! Meow! Meow!

And this does not discourage humans to write such posts

daniel.haxx.se/blog/2021/09/27…

where they say common failures are:
1. Skipping the documentation!
2. Failure to check return codes

As a #developer sometimes you'll see #code comments like this. Often, you'll be the one writing it. #webdev #memes #programming


A while ago, I came across a #Tile #Server #Map project that optimized the hell out of generating #pyramidal tiles, also afair, generating static maps…

Does anyone remember in the #spatial #programming community? A #boost would be appreciated.

I wrote a tutorial on how to make your own programming language (a lisp) using python:

Chipmakers puting AI cores in your CPU and not letting you use them for absolutely anything is the biggest waste of silicon in the history of modern computing.

Those tensor cores are godsend for things like large-scale CAD simulations but the only SDKs/samples provided are hardwired to run pretrained models.

There's no way to access the matrix/tensor capabilities directly. And that goes for both AMD and Intel.

Ok, in an hour, i'll be starting this up. High temps, high effort and high complexity, what oculd go wrong? Let's dig into the #screenReader #accessibility of #jupyter notebooks, a tool prevalent in #dataScience, #python #programming in general, #machineLearning and therefore also practically all things #ai etc.
See you then over at twitch.tv/ic_null and youtube.com/@blindlycoding #goingLive #twitch #youtube #selfPromo


ok ok ok, we covered #jupyter last week. Our #datascience adventure continues with checking into the #accessibility of #google CoLab. Is it better than jupyter? Worse? Are there tools to make it better? How's a #blind person even do #ML and datascience anyway? Come see in just over 2 hours at twitch.tv/ic_null and youtube.com/@blindlycoding #python #programming #coLab #selfPromo


Coding stats time! In 2023, 11,272 commits were made to the #LibreOffice source code, from 253 authors, in 21 repositories. Find out more: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl… #coding #programming #foss #OpenSource


So... I made noise on their official discussion spot. That means I'm locked in. uh oh :P discourse.jupyter.org/t/stream… :P #dataScience #AI #MachineLearning #jupyter #notebooks #Python #programming #selfPromo #twitch


Some time ago I have written an article about interesting way to use Strings in #Swift. If you wish, feel free to take a look and tell me what I did wrong.

We've been doing this a while. Let's SWING for the big leagues.
Tomorrow, we're doing a deep dive on #burpSuite from a #screenReader perspective. It will be mostly #blind (as in playthrough) as I've not looked at this program for a few years, and fully blind (as in sight) given ... well ... screenReader user :)

I've learned more, and hey who knows, maybe they've improved ......
If it turns out they haven't, we'll look at @zaproxy next as a more viable, generally more #accessible alternative. See you tomorrow at 3 EST over at twitch.tv/ic_null #infosec #cybersecurity #zaproxy #portswigger #java #programming


today's stream on #programming editors from a #screenReader perspective can be rewatched here: youtube.com/live/r0uP4wMpg9o


just now thought about something

scratch, the 'language' for teachings kids the basics of #programming, has better first class support for async work than a bunch actual programming languages


Something for coders! New post on the #LibreOffice development blog – fixing assertion failures: dev.blog.documentfoundation.or… #programming #development


We got up to 71 followers in not even a day. That is honestly meteoric.
Tomorrow at 3 PM EST I'll do a first #stream. We'll make us a #TryHackMe account, go through the new user flow, maybe do a room or two while looking at the various #accessibility gotchas we run into. In future streams we'll do similar for HTB, HTBA etc. as well as more #programming related things but tomorrow ...we leave pallet town all mozie-like. See you all then! #twitch #infoSec #selfPromo


So ...let's face it. A LOT of folks in tech circles are somewhat amazed a fully #blind person can even find the power button on a computer, let alone operate it professionally. I am such a person, and I'd like to bust that myth.
It's also true that many #hacking tools, platforms, courses etc. could use some help in the #accessibility department. It's a neverending vicious circle.
Enter my new twitch channel, IC_null. On this channel, I will be streaming #programming and #hacking content including THM, HTB and who knows what else, from the perspective of a #screenReader user.
What I need, is an audience. If this is something you reckon you or anybody you know might be interested in, drop the channel a follow or share this post. Gimme that #infoSec Mastodon sense of comradery and help me out to make this idea an actual thing :) twitch.tv/ic_null #tryHackMe #streamer #selfPromo

Coding Matrix in Rust | 2023-03-14


Coding our Matrix bot in Rust. This time:

  • Finished !greet, making sure it only affects this room
  • Started on a schema upgrade for the arnie plugin, so we can have multiple personalities

Next time:

  • More work on allowing multiple people, so we can !arnie !person !add and make a new one
