You don't need to. You just need to know that the module as a whole has a fault. Reboot the module and let the hot spare take over (all critical functions have a hot spare).
No, because those places are not there to solve these issues, they are there to entice and use those feelings for political purposes.
One thing very interesting about Python is how gradual the ride up has been. Perl dominated then sputtered. Java shot up and hit the ceiling. C# is mostly limited to Windows, JavaScript mostly to the web. Ruby stole the spotlight for a few years and then faltered mysteriously. Others found their niche. But Python just keeps chugging along slowly gaining ground almost everywhere like a tortoise to multiple hyped-up hares.

Well, if you were doing it for a lot of machines it would be worth seeing up.
Buying existing assets only results in asset inflation if you lack a free market.

Otherwise, buying existing assets (such as houses) will increase the price which will trigger increased production of that asset.
China Says Sino-British Joint Declaration on Hong Kong No Longer Binding (2017)
Well, that's what I said, there are plenty of packages for data science. For building APIs and web stuff usually there aren't. Python is nowhere near NodeJS for instance. But whatever suits, if you only know one language, it will seem like the best language out there.

This is a silly statement that's a pet peeve of mine; this breakthrough was inevitable, given the state of science and technology. The only aspect that wasn't certain was who'd discover it first and exactly when. If not Kamen, it would have been someone else, and not too long after.

Below is the list of new changes added to the app. Feel free to share your thoughts on the product.

Changelog:
- Optional "Dark Mode". (as every other app).
- Permalink for each posts. So sharing in other websites becomes possible.
- Ability to Tweet a message.
- New Name, new domain & new colors, new UI :)
- An experimental list UI. (The whole app is designed as one whole list)
I should be more specific about what I meant.

I would like to see tox support `install_commands` (https://github.com/tox-dev/tox/issues/715)

I would like to see pex support the `build-system` feature. (https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/issues/660)

For pip, I'm not sure what's involved in getting everything to work generically. This is probably not simple. It has the consequence that when we don't have control over the install command, we end up needing hacks like using `extras` for ReadTheDocs (e.g. https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues/4912#i...)
I would like to see some qr code pointing at an ever expanding list of data. I imagine a game where every 3 months 1% tax is added that can be waved if some new data set is exposed to the customer.

Its terrible how disconnected we are from the things that sustain us. There are so many companies involved in producing something simple. We can gradually expose the consumers to all these business processes we've accumulated over many thousands of years. I think it could be mind blowing in many ways.

People aslo behave different if someone might be looking. Investors get a tour of the facility and everything seems designed for them rather than for the customer. I've seen places remove chairs and force everyone to stand all day simply because it looked good to investors. Open floor plans anyone? From an investor perspective the less room for livestock the better. Salaries cant possibly be low enough. etc

Have them make [say] a nice video showing the production process. Have some fancy committee sign of on it. Or if the product is to embarrassed to show how it's made have it pay the 1% extra taxes.
Since this is full of proprietary services, I will note that I have replaced most of that on my team with Office 365 with Microsoft Teams. Chat, video conferencing, kanban boards, file sharing all in one place with single sign on.
The Ocaml exception implementation is comparatively very performant, and so its exceptions are routinely used for control flow.
So is STD, but we still use it to abbreviate "standard", so, there's that.
1) We knew that all mainland China state-owned enterprises are essentially owned by the China Communist Party. We also had indications private enterprises (such as certain phone manufacturers) are in the same situation. Now it's becoming clear the Commies' grip extends to private enterprises in Hong Kong.

2) Regarding scoundreller's comment below - everyone is expendable except the Party.
It's a tough one. On one hand 8chan is a source for stupid values to sacralize, on the other it lessens social exclusion and staves off extremist behavior.
There's no mention of permanent blindness in your 2nd link.

And what's wrong with firing tear gas and rubber bullets during "normal operating hours"? There was probably no legitimate non-protesting traveller in the Kwai Fong MTR station anymore. I don't think you can ever be 100% sure that there are no innocent by-standers in the crowd. So what is the police supposed to do? Never use force against protesters?
The part that Python really bothers me, as someone who had write Python for almost 10 years, and right now doing it professionally, though personally I don't consider myself a Python developer rather than a Python senior user, is actually obvious to nail down, and frustratingly, difficult to handle.

SLOW. The sin of all. I don't want to make other arguments with people who just come to repeat 'Oh you can make it fast, you are doing it the wrong way'. Sorry, I have heard that 100 times, now is sounds like bug-as-feature excuse to me.

Sorry, but Python is just slow. All the stuff people might bring up is just trying everything to bypass Python itself. Multiprocessing is hell to work with, buggy and unpredictable. Cython is OK but it is not Python.

Python's slowness is like cancer, and terminally so. Down deep, it is because its overtly flexible/loose type system, the never-going-away GIL, and prematurely exposing of C-API makes it almost impossible to optimize without breaking the existing compatibility.

And most importantly, I don't think it is solvable, truth is the patches are so integrated, people already forget what problem they tried to fix in the first place and just live with it.

But it will haunt Python in long term though, people will be struggling with Python in performant production until they start reimagining a world that without Python. Maybe a better Python in that sense.

Ask HN: Wireframing Tools?
What wireframing tools are you using?
You're of course free to "doubt that anything is truly random" and to suspect that "there has to be some type of cosmic drummer," but I feel compelled to point out that your "case in point" completely fails to support your opinion.

Your example insinuates that (a) all of the human genome is required to correctly model the human phenotype, i.e. each bit is significant, and, more importantly, (b) the human genome came into existence as-is without a history of stepwise expansion and refinement.

I can't know whether you're a creationist, but I will point out that your attempted argument is on (e.g.) #8 on Scientific American's list of "Answers to Creationist Nonsense" (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/15-answers-to-cre...). Amusingly, SciAm's rebuttal even explains how the "monkeys typing Hamlet" fails as an analogy to the human genome.
Has anyone else observed that when a terrorist act is committed by a person who is either black or muslim, there isn't this kind of deeper search for a root cause on Hacker News or anywhere else. In addition, no one calls it "domestic terrorism" when the terrorist is identified as muslim, even if the person is a naturalized citizen.
I just hope compositor works better now...
Jesus, this website gets toxic at this time of night. First link I see and we’re demonizing muslims and women and blaming diversity programs for mass shootings and parading out bad evolutionary psychology.

The people who post here are disproportionally privileged by society. You wouldn’t know it from reading this thread.
Way too broad a conclusion from a small, specialized sample.
This is the kind of study that needs to be replicated in different environments to be useful. It's also not clear, even if this is real, that this effect comes from individual exclusion from a peer group or exclusion of the peer group from the larger society.
> The study was conducted with a group of young Moroccan men, but the results could be applied to any other group of young men vulnerable to be radicalized

All my encounters with this demography indicates that the're mostly male, closed minded, with very strong opinions on homosexuality, alcohol, or even pork. The very few females of their ethnicity who come to EU are always timid, with hairs covered, responding "I have a boyfriend" on any attempt to interact with them. Their influx causes even more frustration for the native European population which already doesn't have it easy.

My personal observation is that women from Germany and Scandinavian countries have some attraction or even feeling of mission towards North Africans and Middle Easteners, trying to socialize with them or even travelling to these regions and more often than not they end up running away if lucky, or cut with machete if not.

We (Europeans) are not guilty of radicalizing these people, French and Italians might have some post-colonial obligations towards them though.
You should keep in mind is that the SpaceX capsule is not really meant to be human operated under normal circumstances, and whatever actions are meant to be taken by humans during normal operation or emergencies supposedly have physical buttons.

So if there's things you can do with the touchscreens it's likely to be a whole lot of small things you might want to do in rare non-emergency situations. That's a pretty good fit for a touch screen. You can potentially give the astronauts a huge amount of control over all aspects of the spacecraft without creating a mountain of buttons and knobs. It could even lead to better safety since you know that every single physical control you see is important, and there's less room for mistake when using only the physical interface.

I'm not an expert in this area, so I could be wrong, but my impression is that SpaceX has a pretty good design here. Not necessary better or worse than Boeings approach. It's not like NASA would let astronauts fly on it if they thought it was unsafe or hard to operate.
In the United States, projects applying for Low Income Housing Tax Credits actually get a 30% boost in their subsidy if they're in qualified low-income Census tracts.
Important nitpick: the equations that govern dynamics in quantum mechanics aren't random, and evolution is unitary. However, the process of "measurement" is described by a (obviously non-unitary) projection operator onto one state; the so called "collapse". If you, for example, attempt to answer the very real physical question "given two particles in with some total joined state Psi, one is measured and found to be in state Phi, what state is the other particle in?", you would have to use such an operator. There isn't anything interpretive about this, as such experiments have been done again and again. It's a standard part of the mathematical framework.

Now, whether the underlying physics is truly random, or whether it's deterministic and the projection only represents a sort of Bayesian update of prior information (a la MWI), that is indeed a matter of interpretation. And completely unfalsifiable by definition, and therefore not even really a question for physicists. It's philosophy at best.
Hell yes. Fastest desktop in the land.
profitability matters for how much you need the VC. Of course they might want you to need them more than you want to need them, and in their eyes therefore profitability might be a minus.
All of these projects have potential, but we simply don't need them yet... so unfortunately it looks like none of these will gather mainstream usage...
so this implies that some men reproduce with more women than they "should", thus causing problems?
That doesn’t even work in all situations. What if the system requires development packages? What if it’s a different OS or architecture? Packaging is a nightmare.
If you put in as much time as you have learning Python, then the answer is probably yes.
Seems silly to care so much about your tethered connection when the average home network has a bunch of computers, random IOT kit, a end-of-lifed smart TV, friends mobile devices and the random MAC addresses in your DHCP lease pool that you can't even account for.

Network security is unmaintaniable. Start caring about defensible boundaries instead.
Switch to JS was like obtaining new home, don't want to write Python code anymore. Also "Eating the World" isn't correct anymore, 'cause Python popularity decreasing last ~5 years according to Github stats.
Tell me why evolution would require all of those combinations to be tried?

Edit: Microsoft Windows 10 is 9GB. It would be impossible to try 8^9000000000 different programs. Yet, Windows exists, and most of us believe it's contained in those 9GB.
Young and isolated breeds radicalisation, this is not a new conclusion and one that has previously been observed in Northern European people as well. Their cultural background has no bearing on that fact, regardless of whatever things you might want to say about an entire group of people. The examples that you pulled in are uncalled for and not even vaguely racist.
While this is a fair point, pylint bumps the limit to something like 100 characters, and you can split deeply nested logic into separate functions with ease.
How does 8chan stave off extremist behaviour?
HN has ~200 char lines and I find it easy to read long bikeshed arguments.
the old, tried and true way was to introduce slavery. The men work, and work, and after a long enough time, and having worked long enough, is granted a women to reproduce with (and their offspring is also a slave - thus perpetuating the cycle).

Modern sensibilities cannot accept this method of increasing productivity.

What you’re describing is what happens when you have a developer who’s bad at their job.

I see the point that python invites these anti patterns.

But on the other hand, a software developer that returns Union(list[item], item]) in Python is probably also going to mess up a Java program sooner or later.
How to efficiently save money as a Digital Nomad
Why not take this reasoning one step further and have Hacker news impose an 80 character line wrap limit?

If you've ever had to deal with this in an email client, you can quickly see that 80 is undershooting it in the modern era.
I do not believe that was ever in question.
Hmm, so are you blaming the incompetence of the majority of people in the field?

Also, I can't help but draw parallels to this other discussion [1] where people claim that veterans in the programming community have to "live" with python because beginners adore the syntax.

This is called forced leave (shutdown period) and it's certainly not restricted to tech. The whole country seems to shutdown for two weeks, which I like, but I hate the concept of forced leave. Not everyone wants to take off during Christmas/New Years and the practice is prejudicial to those who do not celebrate Christmas and don't care about taking time off during this period of time. Mainly, the flights become super expensive so I'd rather save my leave.
Social exclusion and alienation fuels extremism and violence, period.
Exists there any radicalization of young immigrants from post-Communist countries? Their emigration is mostly economic, they're not any less lone, isolated, and frustrated in the foreign places they've come to and oftentimes the're similarly a subject to political and religious agitation.
If UK wants to stay involved and be responsible, they should grant British passport to every HK citizen who was citizen when before handover and their descendants.

They should have done that before the handover.
No?

You have Django and DRF and Flask. DRF is, by far, the best designed framework for building APIs in any programming language I have ever seen, and I've at this game for a long time.

JavaScript has 10 times more packages than PyPi, and for the most part they are absolute garbage with no intent on being maintained.

Python has substantially fewer packages where the community rallies around them and keeps them as best-in-class. SQLAlchemy, DRF, factoryboy, requests, etc., are all incredible one-stop-shops for the vast majority of use cases.

You don't need 15 libraries for doing HTTP requests. You just need one good one that does the job so you never have to think about the problem ever again. Python excels at this class of libraries and by comparison npm has appalling choices.
On the other hand, the HK police had their chance to be competent and impartial, and demonstrated themselves not to be a professional constabulary, but the tools of the state.

"Natural reaction" it may well be, but they're meant to be a professional police force; not a street gang.
This kind of armchair biological handwaving isn't doing anyone any favours. It's reductionist and frequently wrong and I have yet to see good studies supporting this with any kind of reproducibility. This is of course the status quo for psychology as a field, so that should surprise none of us.
I haven't seen anything about `StopIteration` being removed?

In fact, the Python developers recently doubled-down on the design by introducing `StopAsyncIteration`.
It's exactly because of these optimizations that Gnome is running slower. They have so many things to optimize that optimizing one makes two slower -- it's a vicious cycle.
I look at developer surveys sometimes when I'm trying to decide what to learn next. According to the 2018 stack overflow survey, 68% of python users would like to use it again in the future [1].

The surveys never tell me why though. What do people like or dislike about python? I know it has a lot of libraries people love (scikit-learn, tensorflow come to mind)

I stopped using GTK applications a while ago, so I don't use XFCE anymore, but I still love it, just... from a distance. It's an increasingly uncommon breed of software, which gets better with every release. No pointless shuffling of user interface features in the name of UX "innovation", no rationalizing bugs so that they look like deliberate design choices, just steady improvement. All this by an independent team with basically zero funding.

IMHO, XFCE is one of the few relatively well-known projects that still embodies the spirit of free software as we once knew it. Kudos to the quiet and tenacious people behind it, who still manage to come up with one quality release after another, so many years down the road.

If you want to support (at least some of) their work, Sean Davis has a Patreon account: https://www.patreon.com/bluesabre . Sean is one of XFCE's core developers and the Xubuntu tech lead. I don't know if there's a more official XFCE donation sink (this one is the only one I know of), but hey, it would be a great start!
I’m really glad to hear someone else voice these frustrations. I’ve really tried to embrace Python and everyone tells me how great it is. I feel like a failure as a developer but I dislike it so much I quit a job, that switched to Python as the primary language, and took a year off from development. I’m pretty much a polyglot as far as languages go but Python riles me.
You may have Gateron Clears, which are lighter than Gateron Browns. Gateron Browns are basically equivalent to Cherry MX Browns, but Gateron Clears are entirely different from Cherry MX Clears. This has tripped me up more than once.
Cool story. But when I get a replacement battery pulled from a brand new iphone with the 3rd party repairer providing warranty on their work, I still have no way to make that message go away other than to pay Apple's extortion fees.
Oh nice, you have two frameworks. Well, whatever suits your fixed mindset.
I was smart and lucky enough to switch from Python to Clojure and from Javascript to Clojurescript. I am not even sure anymore what have I liked about Python back then. I know for sure - those who really like Python probably haven't given a heartfelt try to Clojure, Haskell or Racket.
But even so, hard though it is to admit for us children of peace-time, being an accomplished killer of «the enemy» is a high-status achievement in itself, in time of war. Enough so that it’s easy to imagine an evolutionary tendency that can be triggered under extreme distress.

You just have to go back to WWII (if that!) to find obvious examples of this. Killers such as Richard Winters and Ronald Speirs are celebrated in history and fiction even today, 70 years later.

And convicted (male) mass-murderers have a tendency to receive an unexpected amount of attention from certain women, so even from that perspective this seems like an understandable evolutionary adaption.

Certainly not morally defensible, but nature doesn’t give a shit. It’s horrifying, but not incomprehensible.
Hi, I'll check out Krisp.ai and add it, not familiar with it. It's not a paid curation, by the way. That form is mostly for us and founders to see if we can do a sponsored post or newsletter sponsoring.
I hadn't thought of that because I hadn't been to a theme park in years, since smartphones took off. Wow. I couldn't imagine a line full of kids staring at phones. Lines were always tedious, but we joked around and generally entertained ourselves through it. Man, we are becoming a dull bunch of people.
They still point to things like 9/11 and say "I made that happen!".
No, it's just the style that's "in" right now. I believe this is from an illustration package somewhere.
Check out pcrm.org for some medical arguments why it's bad for you.

But even if you think it's not bad for you, it's bad for:

- bad for the animal
> Particularly the lack of braces

Since most of my professional experience is with C like syntax languages, I don't get how the lack of braces is an advantages, quite the opposite in my limited experience with Python.

Braces define scope unequivocally, they are easy to visually parse and don't care whether you are using tabs or spaces or even if you, loud gasp, mix them. Furthermore, you can copy and paste, say for loop from a method to another method and it will work. In Python you might have to faff about with spaces (I'm sure there must be IDEs that solve this problem but it was no fun on vim or even notepad++)
