I'm getting old. Something so obvious that I thought everybody knew is getting reiterated in a blogpost by a younger generation encountering it for the first time.
- poincaredisk 2y agoYou're certainly getting older :). You're assuming that since the author writes about something obvious, they must belong to the "younger generation" and encountered it for the first time. Meanwhile, the author finished their PhD in 2004, and wrote 3 books about Python.
- sltkr 2y agoWhich 3 books are you talking about? I can only find 1 on Amazon (and it has a grand total of 12 reviews, so... you know, not exactly a best seller). Frankly it's a bit suspicious how defensive you are of this author, and combined with the blatant downvoting of my toplevel comment, makes me think there is some astro-turfing going on in this thread.
- ninetyninenine 2y agoMaybe not "by", but "for" a younger generation.
