My friend borrowed a tent from Frome's equivalent over the summer. When he unpacked it at the site there were no pegs. He managed to borrow pegs off other campers and got it set up. It rained heavily that night and he quickly discovered the waterproofing had worn off and his tent was actually absorbing instead of repelling water. The water pooled in their tent and gradually soaked all the bedding and possessions. He gave up and went home in the morning.

No, it's more of a conspiracy fact.

This is a pretty mean-spirited comment, I don't even know where to start. Homeless people are just people like you and me. If you'd been born in their shoes, with their inherited genetic make-up, raised by their parents, surrounded by their friends, living their life experiences etc you'd very possibly be homeless too and 'spewing bullshit' as you put it

I happened to watch the 'Ecstacy' documentary on Prime last night. I was surprised to see the guy who brought MDMA to the world was sad that it had become a party drug as he believes it's primary purpose could have been to help people psychologically. Definitely worth a watch.

That's awesome. So given it sounds like a traffic game, how are people finding apewisdom? Just organic search???

I would go as far as to say "The Media controls what (most) people care about."
Once you step outside and look with fresh eyes it really is quite terrifying.
Re:Reloadr – Hot code reloading tool for Python
on Friday February 05, 2021 @12:02PM (#26038467)
does this patch existing class instances, if you modify a method for example?
I cobbled together something similar a few years back using the reload stuff from ipython and a script I think GuidoVR wrote that I stumbled on. I like to debug on the cli (pdb++), I made it autodetect changed modules and reload those whenever i entered the 'reload' command. For me having to decorate things first would be a no-no.
My helper worked really nicely for some projects but broke with others. Well done on getting something out there.
