There is no official GitHub SDK for Python. It's easy enough to do it anyway. This is not authentication logic either.

PyGithub has existed for ages, even if it is not official. GitHub only maintains octokit for JS, Ruby, .NET, and Terraform.

If this is real, I hope they get also the unblurred version so they have a nice photo when the fad gets away.

From the article

  “Most of the time in a wedding gallery of 1,000 photos there are only 1 to 3 images that are blurred,” explains Haanstad. “Also, anytime I do a blurry photo I have the couple do the same thing but in focus so the couple has both images and is not missing out on a moment from their wedding day.”

Why isn't snap and/or discord bring sued?
chriswitts · 3 years ago
They are. It is stated in the subheading, as well as the article.

Absolutely yes. I would be pretty happy to work 20 hours a week to essentially be a consultant and advisor to a team.

To be clear the flaw was not in Tesla’s software, it was some other third party tool. I don’t know which because a paywall got in the way :)
chriswitts · 4 years ago
The software was not named in the article, as it has yet to be patched.

  Colombo provided screenshots and other documents detailing his findings and
  identifying the maker of the affected third-party software, but he asked 
  that Bloomberg not publish specifics because the flaws hadn’t yet been fixed.

What the tweet and graph misses is the fact that the NICD systems have a delay in reporting due to some recent IT changes for data security. https://twitter.com/nicd_sa/status/1469405508679483395

I hope they correct the Steam regional pricing for Forspoken... $70 is ZAR1,118.53 (R15.98:$1) yet the Steam SA pricing is R1,429 (±R20:$1, or effectively a $90 game). Definitely not going to buy something so ludicrously priced.

But you still have data caps and that sounds quite expensive for India.

For example in Lithuania I have 1gbps with no limits for 20€.

chriswitts · 5 years ago
I'm in South Africa, paying ±$73/month for 100Mbps synchronous uncapped (but with a FUP [Fair Usage Policy]). I would love to double my speed and third my costs :(

None of these are good examples. It's not the spelling. It's the pronunciation to native English speakers. "Rapey".

There's no point getting on a high horse about people being adults, etc. Marketing and advertising empirically work, and not because people are stupid. A lot of time and money is spent thinking up good names and trying to avoid names with embarassing connotations.

If a bunch of native English speakers are telling you that the name sounds bad to native English speakers, then it's worth at least considering rather than dismissing.

EDIT> Reminds me of Rational Rose .petal files.

chriswitts · 5 years ago
As a native English speaker I can attest that we sure as shit don't pronounce it "Rapey".

Are you saying that the AMD stuff doesn't do hyperthreading?
chriswitts · 6 years ago
AMD calls it SMT (Simultaneous MultiThreading).
