  • WHAT HAVE I DONE!!! 😮

  • What is this, potential for a circle tool?

    Just in time for version 3.1.4!

  • They are making a funny facial expression while wearing Nim on top of a tall hat.

  • I have found that conda proves to be

    alternative to pip as well.

  • As much as I love this idea in theory, in practice there are probably simpler ways for me to volunteer my physical or virtual machine to be part of a botnet.

  • I am really looking forward to using this next year!

  • (Off-topic, but your username is fantastic!)

  • Saying that the problem of formatting goes away if you have a carefully configured IDE is an excuse, not a reason.

  • I work with Python on a daily basis as well and this has never been a big deal for me. So in short: speak for yourself.

  • A text editor that indents a block when you press "tab" is not hard to find and takes all of 30 seconds to set up.

  • Interesting... so in the end, if the whitespace is not telling you what the code is doing, you reformat it so that it does?

    Imagine if there were languages that just let you skip that step entirely!

  • More like everyone whose text editor is apparently Notepad...

  • Lisp syntax would not even necessarily be that bad if in practice people did not lump all of the closing parentheses in a place where it is really hard to visually match them with their respective opening parentheses so that it is hard to immediately see what is going on. (I have been told that the trick is to read the whitespace instead of the parentheses, but that does not actually help because the whitespace is not significant in Lisp!)

  • A more fundamental difference between Rust and Python is essentially that the former is expression-based whereas the latter is statement-based, so arguably you need delimiters for code blocks in Rust because an expression can contain a block that itself has statements in it, whereas there is (sadly) no equivalent in Python. (Having said that, even if this weren't the case, it would probably still have used curly braces for delimiters because it wants to look a bit like C++ to make it more palatable for that group, not because deep wisdom was involved.)

    There are lots of things to not like about Python, but the lack of curly brackets that would just be redundant anyway is not one of them. You hardly alone in your opinion, but you are not speaking for "everyone" either.

  • I spend a huge amount of time working with Python and regularly do things like refactoring and do not run into all of this pain that supposedly exists, and never have. I think that you should stop speaking on behalf of "everyone".

  • What do you see outside your field of vision?

  • Make sure you check out Metal: Hellsinger if you haven't already!

  • I congratulate you on writing a comment that I genuinely cannot tell whether it is supposed to be a parody or not; have a Poe's law award!

  • His eyes are frequently not shut, it's just that the artist often uses shut eyes in all of her characters as a form of facial expression.
