« The problem with grabbing small snippets of code is a lot of context is lost.» does not mean that a lot of additional code is required to understand the context, additionally, simple code may require you to read a bit of code to understand it.

Simplicity does not mean small scale, nor that it must be understood at a glance.

Rich Hickey got a great presentation where he discuss simplicity vs complexity. It’s worth a watch if you want to better understand the concepts.

Simple != few lines of code, nothing incompatible about those two statements

You should probably watch the video before criticising the tech

I got a bot on lemmy that scrapes espn for sports/football updates using regex to retrieve the JSON that is embedded in the html file, it works perfectly so far 🤷‍♂️

Dosage depends on the size of the person, there is no flat number. For people who lift with the intention of gaining muscle size, there’s is a positive trend of additional hypertrophy that starts to flatten out at around 1,6g/kg.

I’ll look into it @[email protected]

Edit: fixed

We were sleeping in the first half, but clinical in the second half. Haaland playing is also an automatic goal or two. Ødegaard is still out, so being able to beat Italy without him is a reassuring sign.

Damn, we might even make it past the group stages of the World Cup. Haaland averaging 2 goals per game in the qualifiers is crazy.

From the second sentence on the page:

It is different from loss leader marketing and product sample marketing, which do not depend on complementary products or services.

So the Razor and blades model would probably be the more accurate term for what people thought the new steam hardwate would be, yeah.

Though steam won’t lock you to their services.

A product sold at a loss/very attractive price to attract customers. The idea is that they customers will come due to the cheap price of a desirable product and buy additional other stuff at the store, which should hopefully make up for the loss.

E.g. a restaurant advertise cheap burgers to attract customers, and then make the profit on alcoholic beverages that customers buy alongside the cheap burger.

Shut up bot

@[email protected] Got a bit delayed, but added a way to add games based on their game id instead of having the bot search the EPSN fixture list (games from Greece doesn’t show up there).

Just search for the espn page of the fixture and copy the game id that you see in the url. E.g. https://www.espn.com/soccer/match/_/gameId/752344/aris-aek-athens -> 752344

Games added via game id isn’t restricted by the usual “only request games 7 days in advance” rule.

Assume you’re saving X amount of money each month for your retirement.

Your options for storing that money is either:

1. In cash which will “lessen” in value as time goes by due to inflation
2. In a savings account with middling interest rate
3. Or you could invest in the stock market which will typically offer better return.

Assuming you go for option 3, would you choose to invest in a company with zero growth meaning your retirement fund won’t grow, or would you choose a company that is constantly growing?

Nobody would choose to invest in a company with zero growth or which doesn’t return money back in the form of dividends.

You’re objectively better off investing in companies that grow since those are the companies that will grow your investment.

The complaint, filed under secrecy by current president Joan Laporta, estimates the club suffered around €30m in damages. The accusations cite potential crimes including disloyal administration, misappropriation, and accounting fraud, supported by a forensic report from consulting firm Kroll submitted to the Public Prosecutor’s Office.

How did you twist this into Barcelona being guilty of this? It’s the club taking legal action against the former president abusing his power at the cost of the club.
