I'm good I'm just here to chat, not to promote anything ;)

Wrong. Consider the standard backslash escape: represent literal comma as "\,", and literal backslash as "\\". Backslashes are otherwise forbidden.

It will be difficult to find pathological cases for this grammar, because they don't exist.

Can you parse this 2-row CSV:

SomeCommas,MoreCommas,OnlyOneComma,ALotOfCommas

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I'm sorry but.. why? The library is a single function consisting of 10 lines of Rust code. And would be about 10 LOCs to re-implement in any language that has native csv libs. It seems a little bit unnecessary to load a WASM runtime for that.

If both ends got APIPA addresses would they be able to talk to each other?

I was under the impression you have to set up the devices as each other's default gateway, but maybe I'm the one not up to modern standards this time.

Yeah they should add it. The tool is like 20 lines of Rust code. It's a thin wrapper around the csv Rust crate, which does support specifying alternative delimiters.

This is (nominally) a discussion about the csv-to-usv tool. They are asking if the csv-to-usv tool also accepts semi-colon delimited files as input.

Have you maybe lost track of what post you're commenting under?

(I believe the answer is no BTW, the tool only supports , as delimiter in its input.)

Right, that plan is somewhat foiled by most laptops not having ethernet ports anymore.

You don't need crossover cables anymore. You can just connect a regular patch cable directly between 2 devices. Modern devices can swap RX/TX as needed.

As for auto-configuration, that's up to the OS, but yeah you probably have to set up static IPs.

Next time, I'll be sure to do it the easy way by going back in time and getting a free copy of Acronis TrueImage in 1998.

You just need a single Ethernet cable really, if the devices are reasonably modern. With Auto MDI-X the days of needing a crossover cable or a switch are over.

DNS over HTTPS is using port 443 because it's... HTTPS. Are you blocking that too?

Which French layout would that be? I've never seen a French keyboard where this is true. French is my native language. On layouts I'm familiar with, some accented letters have separate keys like é, but not all, the others are made by composing an accent key with a letter.

I'm in Canada so laws are different but what I found here is when I ask for proof they don't send it, they just sell the "debt" to a different agency and then I start getting harassed again 2 months later, rinse and repeat.

(I put debt in quotes because the alleged debt is with a company I've never done business with, so I assume it's completely fake, mistaken identity, or identity theft.)

I was hoping this would let me set 125% scaling on my 3440x1440 display but no, I guess it's a hard OS limitation. It's my biggest gripe with MacOS.

(There's BetterDisplay - formerly BetterDummy - but it introduces noticeable input lag for me.)

> automated assessment tests, I was consistently placed in the "best" decile

Of course you were. I'd expect that for a large fraction of gainfully employed devs.

People who can't code their way out of a paper bag are way over-represented in tech screens. Because a highly competent dev will apply at 3 companies they choose and get a job. A terrible dev will do 100 applications and see what sticks.

We opened a ML intern position recently and got over 200 applications and 95% of them were terrible. Should I conclude most ML grads are incompetent? I don't think so... probably 190 of them are the bottom 5% of the local market, and these same 190 CVs are on the desk - well, in the rubbish bin - of everyone with an open position right now.
