on stackoverflow, why are the search results when you make a new post extremely good, but the actual search feature extremely bad.

its because new post results also analyzes your text in post youre making, not your search queue

ive never tried svn/mercurial (i dont even know if they are different things). for my stuff, writing in latex, i use git, as in sourcetree client and private repository on bitbucket.

semester that finished yesterday had a subject where i was forced to use dropbox for version control of fairly broad project.

:negative:

*plays gta, goes to shoot dropboxers*

yeah you just export project to zip, name it with a date prefix and then dropbox it!

this was done, only instead it was ither filenames starting with date, foldernames starting with depth, or your long time academic favourite ayn_rand_galtse_cx_draft_1_final_edit111_1-rev_three_ready.pdf

i have terrible coding question. say, there is an hls live feed, which is locked to a fairly bad player. there is a tool that allows me to extract this live feed and pipe it into whatever video player i want. i think of setting up a website with decent (non-flash) player to be able to avoid using monstrosity of a web player that is there now. in case if i do so and succeed to do so, i have one thing i am not sure about - will it cut into my bandwidth or will it work the way i think it would, as in direct client <-> endpoint connection that just uses my server as a means to "locate the signal" ?

any suggestions, for python 2, to make program read itself and copy that somewhere else? the idea is that my program makes a thing, and it should make also a script including all the code in it so that one could just run it and replicate the result, given they have installed python and relevant public libraries on their own

Like a quine? I'm not understanding your question, otherwise.

yeah, that looks like it. i have single file that stores all functions used, and client requires certain functions to produce a copy of both the module file and the executable script. now that i know what it is called like in proper terms, i should be able to find relevant examples. cheers!

i want to know why. tell me

i just woke up so don't yell much please but c += b is c = c + b, and when your c is array but your b is not an iterable thing of same dimension, python just calls you a doofus and stops working

if you do .append, you put add b as last element of c
