Re:Raspberry Pi Build HAT – Controls Lego Technic motors and sensors on Tuesday October 19, 2021 @04:08AM (#28915908)

The Build HAT is not compatible with LEGO Mindstorms (EV3) because the plug system is different. The Build HAT/SPIKE™ Prime system uses LPF2 plugs whereas the Mindstorms system uses RJ12 plugs.

Re:Pynguin – Generate Python unit tests automatically on Tuesday June 01, 2021 @05:47AM (#27352312)

Pynguin executes the module under test! As a consequence, depending on what code is in that module, running Pynguin can cause serious harm to your computer, for example, wipe your entire hard disk! We recommend running Pynguin in an isolated environment, for example, a Docker container, to minimise the risk of damaging your system.
