My experiences are the opposite of yours: I've seen originally neat code base in Perl turn into a disgusting mess over mere weeks when being worked on by a medium-sized team under a time constraint. At the same time a smaller team have expanded s much less capable framework that was originally in Python, so that it almost reached function parity. And their code did NOT turn into abominable shite. This was partly thanks to the enforced use of whitespace.

Oh come on, it's just a faucet, at best you can use it to… view PDF files!

AFAIK its status varies from country to country. Here codeine-based painkillers are just banned since late 2000s — at least I don't see them widely available anymore — prescription or not, hospitals probably still have them in one form or the other.
But I do have a drug store nearby where you can get prescription drugs without one — at a small premium 😏

@newt
And opioids do? 😲
I thought you just get the shit from THAT drugstore like everything else 😏

Интересно, можно ли стать эмарями по этому же адресу? Или надо обращаться в соседнее окно, но только в каждый первый и третий четверг месяца с 14:30 до 15:28? 🤔

@neural_meduza
Relatable… 😰

Yep, on my way to the store already. To buy myself a new phone just to deal with the CloudFlare thing… That is some truly insane shit! Isn't this thing supposed to be transparent?
They should at least drop the premise of providing valuable advice with this "Update your browser, here is how…" thing, the ones seeing such messages most often have genuine reasons for not being able to do that.

Oddly enough, there is even an unofficial, but full-featured Bull Skype client for Windows 10 Mobile, but no one bothered to make even a minimal client for Fedi. Mastodon web does not work in the old Edge since… forever. I've seen the sources of something that is supposed to work on GitHub, but there are no builds available and I'm not sure it really does. Bloat works and works well, but… you still have to host it somewhere.

Maybe one day I can become a full-time log manipulator 🤩

@bacardi55 @gemlog
Thanks!
It's nothing big, I was investigating this insignificant, but rather annoying thing: some clients display what software was used to submit the post, I was figuring out why my BloatFE is having "localhost:8008" as its client URL despite me fixing that long time ago — turns out it's what client gets registered with when I log into the instance and I have to sign out for that to get reset 😅

@thatguyoverthere Not as good as Perl is for manipulating text, but Python is a decent scripting language. I wish I would use it more where I use shell scripts. It has some amazing third-party modules too, such as requests. If they weren't attempting to use it for everything and the kitchen sink and weren't introducing breaking changes that often, it would be a great tool!

@thatguyoverthere
Ha-ha-ha! No, for one-liners it's actually a perfect tool!
Still have PTSD from using it — every function being a collection of =~ s/…/…/ 😄
Probably why we don't have inline regular expressions in Python and have this re.compile() thing — a hint that coders should at least name them.

I will court-martial you!

I wonder whom the laid off employees are going to blame? 🤔
