Fair enough, thanks for the comment.

I just read, that syntax is sugar for the list.extend() method so it's still making copies of the list - I wouldn't use it for a list containing complex objects; but that is very idiomatic for simple use cases (like this one?).
574.
by Ixiaus 15y ago
I suppose I didn't say it correctly, you're still maintaining two objects though (xrange the iterable, and the new list being built by the comprehension). The "optimization" I suppose is a moot point because Python's handling of lists is pr

This is much better than my own comment - I never even knew about that syntax! Is it efficient though?
576.
by Ixiaus 15y ago
Yeah, that is kludgy (you're creating two lists now!). First thing I would do is ask why I need that; I've never come across a case where I needed a pre-built list of items all initialized to a common or empty value - if you're doing that,

A "best practice" is essentially the same thing as "idiomatic python" in my opinion - I could pick apart different meanings from each but often times, it really is used to say the same thing. The phrase "best practice" isn't taboo in my exp

That was the first thing I thought about when reading this - it would create a lot of debris!

He came off as insecure in that email, to me. Constantly dropping how "great" Napster was and how nothing but Spotify could match its brilliance.

Interesting - well, that would get me to choose leveldb then!

by Ixiaus 15y ago
I imagine it won't be as fast? The cool thing about Bitcask is that all of the keys are in memory - I imagine that would also be beneficial with secondary indexes now supported... LevelDB seems mostly well suited for data that becomes (in t

Is this in response to my other comment or this direct comment? Nothing about the comment you are responding to here is attacking you. Your understanding (or writing, as I said) is flawed. Maybe you aren't a noob and you just aren't express

You are being too emotional about this conversation between you Nyellin. Your original post was flawed - whether it was your understanding or the way you wrote it (I don't know which). - both require a large investment to achieve mastery.

by Ixiaus 15y ago
Your understanding is very much flawed. (FYI, Emacs has been my primary editor for 5 years and Vim has been my over-ssh editor for 6) Your guitar analogy is more applicable not between Emacs and Vim but between something like pico/nano and

Quick iteration is the goal, but in two weeks you can't possibly gain enough data, experience, and mindshare to properly build a conclusive picture. Sure, iteration means making quick tactical decisions and conclusions, but business is ab

I agree with SeoxyS - 14 days is nothing! I'm just now reaching conclusions about my business and it has been a whole year! Granted my business is very different and conclusions to be made vary based on the character and intentions of wha

/me did not know this - thank you for the fill in (I'll stop preaching about them for hg then, I thought they were unique to hg!)

For heavier work, hg's patch queue's are unmatched. (not to mention you can version the patch queue as well!) If bookmarks are too lightweight for something (say you have an experimental branch that you want to branch on-top of) patch queue

I'm a pious hg user - even gave git a good run (mostly because of Github). I can't get over how amazing mercurial patch-queues are. Big win. I love mercurial's easy plugin development and hooks (thank you Python); I love how many awesome

Mercurial has quite a few merits! I like git but I like hg better. The main thing (to me) git has going for it, is GitHub. Even though BitBucket is getting better; it's still not GitHub.

That's awesome, hold onto that! Most of the time you have to play the domination game in order to have anything of meaning with a woman - but if you have a girl that's on the same plane with you, that will reduce the amount "drama" in the r

Women giving advice [to men] is not a good thing - women only have a "feeling" based notion of what they want (feelings are intangible and subjective). In addition to all of the PUA/seduction stuff, theres one simple "technique" I've learne

Well, there is a female perspective - thing is, women will tell men about what they are wanting but have no idea how provide the feeling of what she is wanting. I whole heartedly agree that women giving romance advice to men is, a bad thin

You can do cheaper than that - WebFaction will give you an $8 a month shared hosting account and you can run anything you want! They have a really cool automated setup system for more involved projects like Django/Pyramid/Sinatra/Rails an

Um, Python's documentation is separated by release versions - so you can read a doc page that specifically targets the version you are using. That is the right way to do it ; with PHP you would have to read the doc page, then also go read

I agree with this. It would be interesting to see how Erlang was used - I find engineers that have "issues" with their erlang programs aren't actually using OTP to its fullest (using behaviors and supervisors, packaging as an application, e

I agree with this - but it is more than that too; I've undertaken a self-study of machine fundamentals too. That is something almost all web application programmers lack (those that don't come from EE/CS that is). By machine fundamentals, I
