  • Huh? The Python Stacktrace is great. What kinda fucked up library were you using that it prints the error code instead of raising an exception?!

    Also don't think outdated library docs are a fault of Python 😅 In much the opposite way, I've found Python's standard library to be really great, reducing the number of random third party libraries needed. (Looking at you, JavaScript)

  • The system of integration for migrants failed in Sweden (as it was hardly even existent in the first place). That's the systemic cause.

    The acute symptom of this currently is gang violence. That said, the symptom is like a cancer that runs itself, the criminal systems underpinning gang violence are now established and you won't get rid of them by being nice anymore.

    So you have to fight both the symptoms and the causes... Which Sweden is beginning to do. Reinstating and hardening penalties for organized and violent crime to get rid of the acute symptoms, as well as stopping the inflow of non-European migrants to stop the cause.

    The Swedish government didn't say they'll never take non-European migrants again, but it's clear the whole system needs a huge overhaul.

  • 3 people in 12 hours in one city was their last record. Gang-related killings have been steadily rising for years and they've currently reached a boiling point where dozens of people die every month just in Stockholm.

  • Big thing about being based on Ubuntu is that the community support is the biggest. Any issue you find, you can google, and there's a 99% chance there'll be an answer for Ubuntu which can be applied as-is to Mint.

  • Ah yes, it's far right populists that caused this and not the gangs who killed two people in shootings and another in an explosion in Stockholm just two days ago... lmao

    And yeah, these are unintegrated migrants imported from 2015 onwards, who failed to integrate and now run massively violent, warring gangs that are currently responsible for an unprecedented amount of violent deaths in Sweden's largest cities. Putting our heads in the sand regarding real issues for fear of being racist is what got us here in the first place.

    Look at the data, and act, just as Sweden's LEFT-WING government is CURRENTLY doing because the situation has now become untenable.

  • But definitely one of the biggest factors that should be considered is how assholeish the community around a particular language is.

    I think all of the factors you've mentioned are extremely valid, but this is the one factor that I think should absolutely not count into whether something's a 'good' or 'bad' language. If I'm choosing which technologies to use for my next project, the question of whether it has a rude vocal minority in its community is AS FAR DOWN on my list as possible. Right next to whether its name is hip or whether their homepage is engaging.

  • This is gonna be the death of democracy when political advertising comes into play (as it already has).

    "Point this piece of fake news at uneducated 40 year old single parents in

    <area>

    " - "point this piece of scientific news reinforcing my party's message at university students who are interested in " and on and on.

    My mom gets fake news advertisements on Facebook all the time, occasionally they are political in nature. Platforms aren't doing their due diligence at all, so government must act to restrict the information that can be collected and the specificity of the targeting that may be employed.

    Our economies worked in TV times, with broad-stroke advertising - why couldn't they now? We don't need this.

  • Same shit happens on Windows. Games will just install their shit literally all over OS with no rhyme or reason to it.

    Why can't the save game and config.ini just be in the main god damn game directory? Nobody knows.
