Why care about the no-JS experience? in c/programming@programming.dev

Couldn't agree with this more.

Every time I create a website, I first create it with only HTML. If it looks right and makes sense, then I will add CSS. If it looks good and works fine, then I will add JS.

Clojure is great but not for AI. Currently the best option for AI is python.

Underrated distro.

I am really considering moving from Arch to Fedora. What's your experience with this? in c/linux@programming.dev

[–] somegeek@programming.dev 0 points 3 months ago

Fedora is corporate bullshit. I stay away from it even though its works good.

why should we sort 2024-day1 ? in c/advent_of_code@programming.dev

[–] somegeek@programming.dev 3 points 4 months ago

You are right. Although the way I was talking about is |(2+10)-(1+20)|= 9 Seems like I coincidentally created some example lists that all worked with this method!

And the algebraic reason would be the presence of parenthesis. |(a+b)-(c+d)| != |(a-c)|+|(b-d)|

True, that is what I did when substracting the sorted lists. I calculated their absolutes.

But I still don't understand why the unsorted method doesn't work. Can you give an example of two lists which this method doesn't work with? Because whatever example I calculated, it was correct.

Honestly I think electric cars will be so sick in 10 years, and I'm a huge petrolhead but the future can be very interesting.
