This is a classic piece, and I love the contradictions in the text. It encapsulates my feelings on good software and code that it almost becomes an art than a science.

PSA for Debian Testing users: read the wiki

Control-F security returns 18 results. This is well known and there’s even instructions on how to get faster updates in testing if you want.

My thought was that a lawsuit is more expensive than arbitration, but settling a class action lawsuit is cheaper than thousands of arbitrations.

Thanks for sharing. We use all pytest-style tests using pytest fixtures. I’ll keep my eyes open for memory issues when we test upgrading to python 3.12+.

Very helpful info!

I’m most excited about the new REPL. I’m going to push for 3.13 upgrade as soon as we can (hipefully early next year). I’ve messed around with rc1 and the REPL is great.

Do you know why pytest was taking up so much RAM? We are also on 3.11 and I’m probably going to wait until 3.13 is useable for us.

EOL for 3.8 is coming up in a few short weeks!

So cool!! Mercury is definitely the most mysterious inner planet due to its difficulty to get a space probe there even though it’s the closest planet.

The spacecraft will arrive next year, and I can’t wait for all the Science it will uncover!

Wow everyone seems to love P3 but I actually liked P4 better. I mean I really enjoyed both, but P4 was a more immersive experience for me. I should reboot my vita and play it again.

I really felt like P4 had deeper connections and relationships between the characters. It felt more real, and that made the tension in the game more exciting. I love every second of it and am still trying to find a game like it.

Don’t get me wrong, P3 was great also. The gameplay was superb and the characters were all great. But P4 still has a special place in my heart.

The autocomplete is nice but I don’t find it a game-changer. The comment about writing tests is on point though, but that’s the only place I found out useful.

They’re asking for TV manufacturers to block a VPN app in the TV. Not to block VPN in general.

Python does not follow semver.

Password managers support passkeys.

Yes it can be an issue because the GPS doesn’t know where you are and thinks you are on an aboveground street. Freeway tunnels can have multiple exits too.

While it would be ideal to have all datetime fields in databases and other data stores be time zone aware, that is certainly not the case. Also, SQLite (and probably others) do not have great support for time zones and it’s recommended to store datetimes as UTC (typically unix timestamps).

Deprecating utcnow was a good idea, but they should have replaced it with naive_utcnow. Oh well.

Rocky Linux have said that they can rebuild using publicly available sources in UBI containers and cloud images.

Though reading the article, I don’t know if SUSE is simply rebuilding or forking. In any case, it’s cool to see SUSE committed to open source principles.

Yes but karma makes it worse. It incentivizes getting getting upvotes because you don’t want to “ruin” your karma. Expressing controversial opinions, even if they don’t generate downvotes, are discouraged with karma. Even OP says he gets a dopamine hit by seeing the karma number go up.

I don’t like karma. It incentivizes short, meme-y posts since those are things that get gets a lot of karma.

I don’t want to victim blame here, but both “Logan Paul” and “crypto” together is just screaming scam. That being said, I hope the victims get their money back, though from the article, I doubt it’ll be anytime soon if at all.

The code in the community’s banner is in python 2. Can we get that changed?
