While I agree that increasing consumer debt is a problem, I think Klarna provides a valuable service for online shopping.
I can get my goods delivered and inspect them before paying anything. If the goods are not as stated (or don’t arrive at all) I just dispute it and then it is Klarnas problem, I haven’t risked anything of my own money. If I had paid up front, I would have to try to get my money back. It’s almost always harder to get money back than to dispute and refuse to pay.
Some regulations are welcome, but I don’t see BNPL as a bad concept in itself.
Comments should explain “why”, the code already explains “what”.
I try to follow Bash strict mode. It can protect you from some foot shooting.
I hate that my government (Sweden) is a driving force behind this.
We have historically used GitPython a lot, but in a recent project I tried git via sh instead. It works great. If you already know the git cli, this feels very ergonomic to use.
No thanks
Odd choice to use Android 11 on one of them and Android 14 on the other. Makes me suspicious of their ability to keep these devices up to date over time.
Yes, unstable Debian is still hella stable. But you probably don’t want to suggest it as the first Linux dust since you need some extra carefulness when updating.
This is enough for most projects.
You cannot seed files that are altered. It’s not the same files anymore.
So yes, as long as you want to continue sending, you need to keep the original files around.
I think the unit price should be more prominent than the price per item.
I agree with this but I suspect that a lot of the backend is dependent on other in-house infrastructure so it’s not as easy as most people think.
I hope her surgeon wasn’t named Paolo Macchiarini.
Yes, the top most directory, /, is the root directory.
Each directory is a branch in one giant tree structure. For example, if you have a directory containing two other directories, that is a branch that is splitting into two branches. All directories are descendants of the same root.
To blow off steam without focus on a story is very much inline with what we are after.
The downside with rocket league is that if we create tournaments, it is elimination rounds. What do the eliminated people do while the tournament completes. Or maybe I’m overthinking it, they could just play local matches until we decide to start a new tournament.
Deep rock galactic looks like a lot of fun but I’m hesitant about the small team sizes. With 4 player teams we would have to have 4 parallel games going at the same time.
Minecraft is not something I enjoy so I won’t be suggesting that. But if others want to, it might be a good choice
This looks fun. Yes, it is an internet cafe and they have access to a huge game catalog. I’ll see if this is in the list of games they have.
Thank you for the suggestion. I think we want something with fast action and team competition. But I will keep this in my back pocket should the discussion steer towards these types of games.
Mostly convenience, the Klarna app is miles ahead of what my bank offers.
