any one else reading this comment should know -- I did look through the PRs and many of them are typo fixes. Its easy to make demands on open source code maintainers time. Not all PRs and "tickets" need attention. The maintainer d

You are using Python2.7 in 2019. there is your problem. I understand if you inherited/maintaining a legacy application, you may not have had a choice about 2.7, but if it's a significantly large project and you are not making any

Just the fact that you are conflating persian and "arabic" words makes me chuckle. They are quite different, even if they are close geographically. Ask a an actual Iranian/Perisan if they would like to mistaken for a Saudi&#x

You can just call them Indian numbers. "Arabic" didn't contribute anything to the number system except using them. Calling them as "Arabic" numbers is as dated as words like "Orientals", "Indians&quot

I don't know why people get so bent about Makefiles. Its a way to preserve muscle memory using a universally (well most *nix systems, anyway) available software. It allows you to have package your often used shell commands into one wel

Fsharp is a much better language for scripting than swift will ever be. F# with the pipe operator used judiciously makes reading it a joy.

that's often the current explanation for continued use of Pyhton and R. Often it is a sign that the problem is not "big" enough (eg: not crunching truly large data sets) OR data science team gets disproportionate amount of go

If I were doing this today, I would prototype the problem in Python and after realising the startup penalty, would rewrite it in D's Mir [1] or Nim's ArrayMancer [2]. Life on a lambda is too short to pay 6-8 second startup penalty
