You can set up a global exception handler in some frameworks. By having multiple (not a crazy amount) of exceptions, you can set up logic for how to handle that kind of error. Then you can just throw the exception instead of writing individual catch blocks.

This is especially helpful in things like a REST API where user input can cause all kinds of fun, let alone network issues, problems with your data source, etc.

This is like Dalinar and the fighting master from Stormlight Archive.

The left wing of the right wing. Sounds right.

I worked for them for about five years. This is accurate.

Why do I get the impression that this is part of basic Ferengi education?

[-] Odinkirk@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 1 year ago

Yup. Casually pivot right while winding up with something like "That's an interesting question! There are many factors to consider and I need to understand the nuance and meaning of the question to be able to answer properly. First, most people don't even know what Hamas is, so we need to clarify that. Next..." And let the flow of conversation process from there.

So, do I give them the landlord treatment first, or the cop treatment first? I want to maximize their ~~suffering~~ education from the experience.

I was inspired to create a version of this as a series of field reports. Here's a link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MpvOlC7rOBCSNjAH9tMKW6y3eCgyPfvhvoE6P8dPraM/edit?usp=drivesdk

Yes it was. I think you're getting down voted because people are considering private property with personal property.

Your stuff that's there so you can live your life? Personal property.

Stuff that's held from the common but isn't for the purpose of someone living their life? That's private property.

Might. Possibly. Maybe.

Five gets you ten that Reddit will purge the moderators, get lackeys into the mod positions, do a content prune to get rid of NSFW-ish posts and comments, then try to bring it back as "business as usual".

Reddit has already demonstrated that they have no problem breaking their own rules.
