Hilarious that they misspelled "failed" anyway.

Dumb question: do you have a key on your keyboard that disables the microphone? I don't have my laptop in front of me, but I know there's a key that disables the trackpad and another that disables the camera. I realized that I'd accidentally hit those by going through something similar to this.

Good luck.

Are there no prisons?

Are there no workhouses?

Plausible is more like conceivable.

It's possible that when I slam my hand on the table, it will go through the table, but it's not plausible. We can't imagine it actually happening, even though we know it can.

Best Practices thinking considered harmful. 🤷

I like test names that are full sentences. Doing this for its own sake is unnecessary. It's probably wise to practise this for a year, then decide when you still need it.

For me, quite often, a combination of the test group name (often naming a behavior) and test function name (often naming a special case of that behavior) suffices, even though it is not a full sentence. (Example: test class SellOneItem, test method productNotFound. Is this not clear enough?)

Test function names that merely repeatedly duplicate details ("conversion should..." to start 12 test names) indicate a test group trying to emerge ("Conversion Tests"). Insisting on full sentences for its own sake often either masks this risk (and delays helpful refactoring) or represents redundancy (merely reiterating what has been helpfully refactored).

I have found this attention to full sentence names most helpful for tests whose audience is not programmers, since those folks are not accustomed to common source code conventions and patterns. For Programmer Tests, I think "should" turns this helpful advice into a risky overstatement.

 

I'd love to say this was intentional, but no.

 

I run a lemp10. I saw a notification of a firmware update, but when I applied the update---apparently successfully---the firmware version did not change. Now I see no pending firmware update.

What happened? Is this normal? Task failed successfully?!

 

... men jag minns inte varifrån jag känner igen den.

 

I tried to upgrade my recovery partition today and it failed with "No such device"/OS error 19.

I found this discussion on Reddit in which @mmstick suggested restarting, but with no explanation as to why that was needed or would work. It worked for me.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/xun8vu/error_updating_recovery_partition_no_such_device/

I'd like to know why it worked and why it was needed, mostly for two reasons: to generally understand the situation better and to imagine what I might have been able to do that didn't require restarting.

Thanks.
