For those who don't know the story: it's ironic because Jefferson died first.
In DC, they're storing the combined runoff+sewage until it can be treated: https://dcist.com/story/23/09/18/new-anacostia-river-tunnel-... As expensive as this project is, separating the storm drains from the sewage…
That’s actually the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, on 14th St. SW, which is indeed worth visiting. They print the paper bills (among other things). The U.S. Mint produces the coins. I think only the Philadelphia Mint…
While I agree, pip has very strong backward compatibility requirements. I'm not sure why, maybe because people tend to upgrade it without considering the consequences.
You can (and should!) tell pip not to do this with '--only-binary=:all:'. Building from source is a lousy default.
For what it’s worth, I was in the “loved it” camp. (I’m the author of dataclasses, and I owe an immeasurable debt to Hynek).
And for a similar idea in Python see https://peps.python.org/pep-0750/
I think you're saying that it takes fewer characters to define a namedtuple. If you're interested in less typing, There's also dataclasses.make_dataclass: >>> Point = dataclasses.make_dataclass("Point", ["x", "y", "z"])…
This is incorrect. The returned integer is a regular Python object, not some "unboxed" integer value.
What you're seeing here is an optimization about integers, not about pass by value. CPython only does this for small integers: $ python -c "print(int('3') is int('3'))" True $ python -c "print(int('300') is int('300'))"…
I’ve worked at places where subverting firewall rules like this would get you fired. I now refer to such situations where I’m forced to twiddle my thumbs while no work gets done as “letting the process work”.
Thank you for the kind words.
This is spelled out in the PEP (I’m the author). There isn’t one “portion” (a term defined in the PEP) to own that file. And it’s also not a requirement that all portions be installed in the same directory. I’m sorry…
I have not used chezmoi, thanks for the pointer. From the comparison chart it looks similar to yadm. It looks like go vs. bash is the biggest difference. It’s occasionally handy to debug yadm’s bash script, although…
For managing config files I use yadm https://yadm.io/, which I learned of on HN. Among other great features, it lets me tailor settings per OS (Windows, Mac, Linux) and per client. And my settings are all in git, so…
See my comment and the linked email at https://github.com/ericvsmith/dataclasses?tab=readme-ov-file... for dataclasses and 3.6. I think it's still true.
That’s not actually true. While dataclasses to most of its inspiration from attrs, there are many features of attrs that were deliberately not implemented in dataclasses, just so it could “fit” in the stdlib. Or maybe…
I like to think of it like mad cow: that’s what you get when you feed animals to animals. Same with AI.
BRIEF by UnderWare! I loved that editor. I particularly liked the “go to this line number, but use the line number before unsaved edits”. This let you compile a file, get the error log, then start making edits; but the…
D’oh! Of course you’re correct. I skipped over “any”, and focused on “patch”. Sorry about that.
That’s not a typo, that’s the name of the technique.
PEP 649 “Deferred Evaluation Of Annotations Using Descriptors” should result in vastly reducing the need for TYPE_CHECKING. https://peps.python.org/pep-0649/
This is a common misconception. US homes are not two phase, they are single phase 240 volts, called split phase because the single transformer leg is tapped in the middle to form two 120 volt lines, each 180 degrees out…
I don't think that picture is about the new chamber they're referencing in the article. Note the caption "showing an empty corridor" (emphasis mine). I was hoping to see a picture, too.
It would be hard to argue that Sun has not disappeared.
