\1 is group 1 which is inside (), so second part is repeated 2 or more times of 2 or more char.

You forgot empty line. Since first part is ^.?$ it’s one or zero of any character.

Sorry, I forgot about this. I meant to say any sane modern language that allows unicode should use the block specifications (for e.g. to determine the alphabets, numeric, symbols, alphanumeric unicodes, etc) for similar rules with ASCII. So that they don’t have to individually support each language.

I was thinking that exact thing lol. I’m like, yes ‘distributions’ are distributing new softwares with the new kernel.

And the improvement in desktop environments does feel like a good improvement considering the user is interacting most with it.

Or maybe I’m just apathetic to these things because most things I care about my distribution are that it provides me a good package manager for external and self made programs. And everything else is just programs installed through said package manager.

I thought the most mode sane and modern language use the unicode block identification to determine something can be used in valid identifier or not. Like all the ‘numeric’ unicode characters can’t be at the beginning of identifier similar to how it can’t have ‘3var’.

So once your programming language supports unicode, it automatically will support any unicode language that has those particular blocks.

I guess yeah. In that condition the algorithm would probably destroy all universe. Although you might be able to set a threshold and not destroy when it is over the threshold.

But situation where you don’t know the answer is not for this algorithm as this one came from sorting problem.

It’s not fun when you have to explain it. But basically it is based on the infinite multiverse theory. Since the multiverse splits whenever you make choices, in this case the program would spawn a large number of multiverses each with different combinations of those bits, which means at least one of them would have the exactly the combination we want. If the program destroys the multiverse it is in after it determines it is not correct, only reality that remains is the one with correct combination of bytes. Making it that we will get the code we want on the first try.

Just ask if it’s correct. If not destroy the universe. Only The correct will survive, it’s O(1)

Underscore to delineate different parts, hypen to delineate words.

Like: my-resume_draft.pdf

And to make it consistent and easier to reuse parts for project names and such, I have a command line utility written for it. It caches the parts and uses a template system (support for generating current datetime in parts)

I wouldn’t say that. For primitives yeah, day or two. But if you want to build a proper program, it’ll take time to get used to it. For my first few projects I just used clone everywhere. Passing by reference and managing lifetimes, specially when writing libraries is something that takes time to get used to. I still don’t feel confident.

Besides that I do like Rust though. Sometimes I feel like “just let me do that, C let’s me”, but I know it’s just adding safety where C wouldn’t care.

Yeah. I’m just worried when extractor fails they put it in discard pile, or human pile which’ll delay my application by a lot.

Ocular shows a warning ⚠️ this file requires new version of adobe acrobat DC, press ok to download latest version or see your system administrator.

Installing it is such a hassle, and booting is too, I used to just close while saving state, but that messes up the time in VM and it leads to problems… Is there any light weight basic windows type VM you use? Or is it the generic iso?

I know it’s adobe problem. Because they deprecated it in PDF 2.0, last support is in 1.7, but they have continued using 1.7 with adobe extension 1 to 1.7 with Adobe extension 8. So it’s like they have their own branch of PDF versions. But most people don’t care, and here a government agency is using that and it’s not accessible for linux.

Wine needs 32bit libraries that’s why I’m not using it. I read the snap package handles the wine part for us, so I tried that in VM but didn’t work. I’ll try to follow your suggestion in VM and see if it’ll work.

Some parts already have filled text that are dynamic fields (but without the support it becomes fixed text). So I can’t write over it. And Firefox doesn’t recognize them as fields, otherwise I could delete the part. It’s so frustrating.

Draw seems to disregard the form fields, so I could probably fill it in Firefox, and use draw to edit the auto calculated fields. It’ll work for printed forms, but if any org uses pdf fields extractor wouldn’t that be a problem?

Thank you.

From my interactions with the people that’ll fund this. It does look like they want me to just develop this. But my advisor has not done this kind of software development grants. And the people I talked to might also not know what their organization’s legal requirements are put in contract. That’s why I want to know what kind of language I should use in proposal so that it can be used as a point of discussion if someone from their organization says we can’t do that. Instead of them just assuming I’ll hand over everything.

Yeah, but my program does not have such things in the code. And if you add it, GPL will make it so that they have to share to code, so people will be able to tell if they try it, right?

Thank you. I’m a PhD student, so I do not have access to Lawyers that I can ask, and it probably will cost me money to get their opinion if I seek professional lawyers.
