Is <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEgaVMOYLEU|this talk >available elsewhere? Looks like it’s blocked outside of the US (or at least in Romania).
Not available in Denmark either.
Nor New Zealand ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It must be a channel wide setting, there are no videos listed: https://www.youtube.com/user/nuACM/videos
Nor the US!
The plot thickens.
Nor the UK
@leif Can you remember who taped the videos back then?
Is it just 2011?
I think so.
There is a contact email for nuACM
It’s NorthEastern so there is a good chance that someone here knows who to contact directly.
Is that where Matthias is based?
@asumu perhaps?
And Carl Eastlund
yes.
Only Matthias is still there, of those people
Has Stephen left NEU? He’s on Slack as well I think
Ben too.
Yep
I’ve just emailed the student acm chapter at the address given on the YouTube profile.
Nittin has responded and is looking into it!
FWIW it’s blocked in the US, too — at least for me, and I tried two Google accounts to be sure. Well actually idk about “blocked”, but it says “This channel has no videos.”
Hopefully it is just a permissions thing and they didn’t decide to do a clean out…pretty sure YouTube doesn’t do restore from backup
I think @asumu might be able to help here.
If not I can also track down nuacm in person and ask what is happening once this pandemic is over.
Does anyone experience this problem? https://www.reddit.com/r/Racket/comments/gi4je6/racket_program_doesnt_save/
I used to have a very similar issue in Emacs due to Mac restricting filesystem access
But I couldn’t reproduce the problem for DrRacket
The image just shows the folder as ‘racket’ - I’m concerned they have chosen a restricted location
Which image?
Is the message on racket users
Ah!
When I save a file in a directory that I have not permission to write, I get this error though.
I think there is something fishy about that save dialog.
My first suggestion is to see if they can save to a known folder like ~/Desktop
I intend to release a pure-Racket CSS3 parser and tokenizer to the default catalog tomorrow. Doc preview attached. I’m adding my first round of tests to the parser now. Requesting bug reports and code feedback! https://github.com/zyrolasting/css3-syntax
@mflatt, the docs for bitmap-dc say:
> A <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/bitmap_.html?q=bitmap-dc|bitmap%> object must be supplied at initialization or installed into a bitmap DC using <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/bitmap-dc_.html?q=bitmap-dc#%28meth.%28%28%28lib.racket%2Fdraw..rkt%29.bitmap-dc~25%29.set-bitmap%29%29|set-bitmap> before any other method of the DC is called, except <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/dc.html?q=bitmap-dc#%28meth.%28%28%28lib.racket%2Fdraw..rkt%29.dc~3c~25~3e%29.get-text-extent%29%29|get-text-extent>, <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/dc.html?q=bitmap-dc#%28meth.%28%28%28lib.racket%2Fdraw..rkt%29.dc~3c~25~3e%29.get-char-height%29%29|get-char-height>, or <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/dc.html?q=bitmap-dc#%28meth.%28%28%28lib._racket%2Fdraw..rkt%29._dc~3c~25~3e%29.get-char-width%29%29|get-char-width>. If any other <file:///home/leif/racket/racket/doc/draw/bitmap-dc.html?q=bitmap-dc|bitmap-dc%> method is called before a bitmap is selected, the method call is ignored.
Does that mean you also can’t call set-font until set-bitmap is called (or the bitmap is otherwise set)
If not, it seems like this drastically removes the usefulness of get-text-extent, get-char-height, and get-char-width, since it will only work on whatever the system’s default font is.
I think that bit of documentation is probably out of date (probably since the GUI/draw rewrite circa 2010), and all methods are ok, but the ones that actually draw will have no effect until after a bitmap is installed.
As a side note, is it possible to change the default font that bitmap-dc%s use in a particular program? Or does every new bitmap-dc have to call set-font?
Ah, okay, makes sense, thanks.
There’s no way to set the default font.
Okay, thanks.
