  • The smartest approach to regular expressions is to think about how to avoid needing them in the first place and that is exactly what this bazinga brain will be avoiding now.

    The next is that if you do need regular expressions, keep it simple. If your regex is complex, you probably should have broken it down into multiple separate steps and sub-searches.

    The next is that if you have determined you do need a very complicated regex, you should probably be writing a parser or using a parser generator so that it can be understood, improved, debugged, etc.

    This bazinga is going to be getting a bunch of complex, non-debuggable regexes that are probably subtly wrong.






  • lmao why would you pick knees our knees suck. Probably because we started walking on two legs only a couple million years ago. Most knee injuries happen just from doing normal knee things like walking or running in a straight line. Bro who designs the mcl like that? Was God high?



  • Kenji has nice cooking videos but he is also petty bourgeois and anti-union.

    Edit: figured folks might wonder what I mean by anti-union and in my attempt to find anything I see a YouTube video where he wrote "support unions" in thr description. But I swear I remember him basically saying he doesn't think unions are a right fit for his restaurants and whether a shop deserves a union or not depends on the industry. This would have been before or around when he moved to Seattle.

    Thinkpads have a good balance been Linux support, price, and general hardware niceness, including battery life. They aren't as aesthetically pleasing as a Mac tho. I think the Z series is metal sometimes but I've never owned one.

    Dell's XPS13 has often been Linux compatible. I don't know if that is the case anymore.

    Regardless, I recommemd verifying Linux compatibility before purchase.
