![]() I've since spent a lot of time thinking about it, and compartmentalized Hiveswap as something completely different from Homestuck. It's things like that that bother me about the Snapchat updates.Īnd in 2017, I learned Hiveswap has a similar problem. And after WV's entire character being how much he hates kings, a statement of intent, I don't think building 4 species-segregated kingdoms would go over well at all. I don't believe that after Dirk and Jake spent so much time realizing they were bad for each other, that they would just start living together instantly. I don't believe that Jane Crocker, heiress to Crockercorp as forced by the literal antagonist, who spends most of the comic as HIC's servant, would just build a new Crockercorp without question. I don't believe they'd just crack out the trickster lollipops again after Act 6 Act 5. I also don't believe for a second that Kanaya and Rose, especially with Terezi there, would have their wedding without Vriska there. I enjoyed the fluff of it - the Rosemary wedding is iconic, but. They were trying, but they're obviously not on the same level, in a way that makes sense when you learn it's written by fans, and Homestuck fans are often really bad at thinking about Homestuck in terms of themes and direction rather than character and ships. Along with becoming more and more cynical, slumping into a miserable depression brought on by various events which I've only truly shaken this year, I just don't think that the Snapchat updates were very good. I was less enthusiastic about more Homestuck by the end of 2016. I was 18, broke, my parents were mid-divorce, and a high school drop out with an unforeseeable future ahead. Homestuck had mostly ended, and the base around which I had built the last 5 years of my life was gone. I was moving into a house I had never been to before the first night I slept there. The house I made an ill-advised suicide pact with, to complete when Homestuck ended, long enough ago I thought that was an okay thing to do. ![]() The house I came back to after going out with my friends and loudly, badly singing the Midnight Crew song in the park. Literally the day after Act 7 launched, I was set to move out of the house that I had read all of Homestuck in, the house that I had tried and failed to input a name other than Zoosmell Pooplord for John, the house that I had a panic attack over Game Over in. All things fell into place and the last shitty twist, that in the deep web of chess and pool symbolism, Vriska was the metaphorical cue ball, and English was the 8 ball, cementing her as the hero of Homestuck, had resolved itself. It wasn't the climax of the story - the core emotional note of the story to me was always Terezi: Remem8er, not Collide or Act 7. I found Act 7 a satisfactory ending for the plot. ![]() I was still enthusiastic in April 2016, when Act 7 launched. I may be wrong, there's not really any reason stated, but sensors indicate it was a money thing - ipgd * said that Homestuck was in deep financial trouble after The Odd Gentlemen had embezzled almost the entire budget of Hiveswap for King's Quest, just months after PXS launched. Hold on - hold on I'm getting a report from the news room.Ĭorrection: they should have been about Jane, but not like that. The epilogues should have been about Jane. I was so very enthusiastic about more Homestuck in 2014, with the launch of Paradox Space, a space for Homestuck comics that use the characters in new, fun comics that maybe aren't super canon, but are generally pretty fun - it's still Homestuck, after all, and telling the story of John accidentally cutting off both harlequin arms resulting in a doomed timeline is fun! Jane sleuthing around trying to find her sandwich, that's good. I've been dreading the inevitability of more Homestuck content for years now. I talk about the epilogues in detail and there's a lot of really upsetting content in there, as well as some upsetting content that is unwarned in the epilogues, and also separate from the epilogues as I contextualize the world I lived in as Homestuck went to shit. If you want to experience the epilogues, the intent of this writing IS to spoil you on them - not in the Marvel way, where telling you the events is the spoiler, but in the traditional way. I had to reread the fucking trickster arc for this. And now that they're here, and I know how bad it gets, maybe I can explain why. The epilogues are only a few weeks old now, but I've felt their presence on the horizon for so very long, and I've never felt anything other than dread about their arrival. There's 3 other files exactly like this, trying to grasp which direction I want to go with this. ![]() I've been thinking about how to write this for maybe. While I'm leaving this up for posterity's sake, I don't necessarily stand by everything said here. The Homestuck Epilogues and what it means to grow up ![]() ![]() ![]() Step 16: once it is all done, you will be offered to quit R (sure, why not) A hidden Rscript process will run in the background and update the packages Step 15: while the packages are updated, you will need to wait. Step 14: if you have a firewall, R may ask to get access to the internet Step 13: you may press “Yes” to get update packages in the new R installation Step 12: you can also have Rprofile.site be copied automatically to the new location Step 11: wait while the packages get copied Step 10: to keep package in your old R folder, press “Yes” (this is safest) Step 9: Press “Yes” to copy your packages to the new R installation (press No, if you intend to use the “ global R library folder” strategy) Step 7: press “next” in R’s installation wizard Step 5: if you want to download and install the latest R version, press “Yes” Step 4: if you wish to check the NEWS of the new R version – click “Yes” and a browser window will open up with this information Step 3: installr will check and detect that there is a new version of R for you – click “OK” Step 2: pick “update R” from the new “installr” menu Install.packages("installr") # install installr Step 1: load installr # installing/loading the latest installr package: Starting from installr version 0.15.0, the upgradingprocess can be done with a click-on-menus GUI interface. just press “next”, “OK”, and “Yes” on everything… A GUI interface to updating R on Windows ![]() Running “updateR()” will detect if there is a new R version available, and if so it will download+install it (etc.). Install.packages("installr") library(installr) # install+load installr ![]() Simply run the following code: # installing/loading the latest installr package: If you are running R on Windows you can easily upgrade to the latest version of R using the installr package. ![]() ![]() ![]() As a bonus, it supports other, language-specific linters. Ask HN: Should source files always end in a new line? Most importantly, pick a linter that can automatically fix it.After this, automatic checks will be execute right after running a git commit. Locally the developer should run pre-commit install after cloning the repo and installing the pre-commit tool. App with self-contained infrastructure on AWS Pre-commit is a really good tool to avoid mistakes before committing (hence, the name).What are some common things you look at while reviewing Pull requests? You are wrong.For instance does a tool offer to show blame info or does a tool offer integration of side by side views. What I saw, is that there are some detailed feature that could decide. If now someone is just interested in using a Git tool to compare history, it is is really a matter of personal taste. With having all three features, my first choice is Fork. I have a working directory where I have repos and so far the only tools that seem to provide that is Tower and Fork. I love the idea of a Repository Manager, because this is what I am looking for. But still for my very personal way of working, there was one tool that stood out a bit: Fork. My personal recommendation: ForkĪs written above, different ways of of working, different recommendations. ![]() People seem to like GitKraken for its DarkTheme (really is that so important). Looking then on stackshare.io, we do not get much more material for a clear recommendation. If I had to choose a favourite, it is this one.
![]() Also, some fractions (such as 1⁄ 7, which is 0.14285714285714 to 14 significant figures) can be difficult to recognize in decimal form as a result, many scientific calculators are able to work in vulgar fractions or mixed numbers.Ĭalculators also have the ability to store numbers into computer memory. Fractions such as 1⁄ 3 are displayed as decimal approximations, for example rounded to 0.33333333. Various symbols for function commands may also be shown on the display. Large-sized figures are often used to improve readability while using decimal separator (usually a point rather than a comma) instead of or in addition to vulgar fractions. Most basic calculators assign only one digit or operation on each button however, in more specific calculators, a button can perform multi-function working with key combinations.Ĭalculators usually have liquid-crystal displays (LCD) as output in place of historical light-emitting diode (LED) displays and vacuum fluorescent displays (VFD) details are provided in the section Technical improvements. Scientific calculator displays of fractions and decimal equivalents InputĮlectronic calculators contain a keyboard with buttons for digits and arithmetical operations some even contain "00" and "000" buttons to make larger or smaller numbers easier to enter. By 2007, this had diminished to less than 0.05%. In 1986, calculators still represented an estimated 41% of the world's general-purpose hardware capacity to compute information. With the very wide availability of smartphones, tablet computers and personal computers, dedicated hardware calculators, while still widely used, are less common than they once were. ![]() As of 2016, basic calculators cost little, but scientific and graphing models tend to cost more. Graphing calculators can be used to graph functions defined on the real line, or higher-dimensional Euclidean space. ![]() Some calculators even have the ability to do computer algebra. For example, there are scientific calculators which include trigonometric and statistical calculations. In addition to general purpose calculators, there are those designed for specific markets. By the end of that decade, prices had dropped to the point where a basic calculator was affordable to most and they became common in schools.Ĭomputer operating systems as far back as early Unix have included interactive calculator programs such as dc and hoc, and calculator functions are included in almost all personal digital assistant (PDA) type devices, the exceptions being a few dedicated address book and dictionary devices. They became popular in the mid-1970s as the incorporation of integrated circuits reduced their size and cost. Modern electronic calculators vary from cheap, give-away, credit-card-sized models to sturdy desktop models with built-in printers. Pocket-sized devices became available in the 1970s, especially after the Intel 4004, the first microprocessor, was developed by Intel for the Japanese calculator company Busicom. The first solid-state electronic calculator was created in the early 1960s. ![]() A modern scientific calculator with a LCDĪn electronic calculator is typically a portable electronic device used to perform calculations, ranging from basic arithmetic to complex mathematics. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can format the drive if you don’t need the data.
