It’s the most popular It can run code during installation phase It’s very easy to obfuscate due to its dynamic nature. An import of urllib or os.system isn’t immediately visible at the top of a file as it would be in Java, it can be hidden

The MagicMock class from unittest package does what you want. I have a hard time understanding any use case outside of such mocking.

ParamSpec from 3.10 is adding some improvements to type hinting decorators and wrapper functions that just forward args and kwargs. https://peps.python.org/pep-0612/

Many of the gray projects listed never even specify the minor number. Looking at setuptools, they only list Python :: 3. If you go back to https://pyreadiness.org/3.8/ there are 20% of packages not explicitly supported

The protocol is the same, but semantics in the applications can differ. Secure cookies only working on https to give one example.

It's heavily dependent on your scope and how much you value your time. I could spin up a postgres docker container locally, in shorter time than it took me to write this comment. On the other hand that wouldn't provide readonly re

One possibility is that Google Play runs the app in a sandbox, monkey test it by clicking on everything, trace the outgoing connections and sees that one request contains PII from the sandboxed contacts. It could be a third party library th

Thinking about it, it's strange that hashlib doesn't have a function that accepts a file-object as input, to make the efficient method default pit of success. Naive implementations like hash(f.read()) are all too common to see. Su

Forgetting is not a problem. Given all the churn in the js world lately it feels like I’m re-earning a CS degree every 3 months anyway. Skipping 3 years you wouldn’t miss anything, just read up on the latest and you are good to go. If you a

Internet connectivity is an obvious candidate for this. Could not connect to server? Check if WiFi is on. Check if Dns is working. Check if ping to router is working. Check if ping to google is working. Link to wifi settings. Whatever you d

Conversational errors can also be fatiguing. Often what you want is something short and dry that can be pattern matched. Compilers are pretty good at this because all their errors start the same way. Error in file foo/bar.c, line

About that, the number of developers that can’t read, or even understand the value of, a stack trace is also astonishing. If only I had a penny every time someone sent me a “log of the error”, that only contains the final line with the un

Derivative work requires a major part of the original, before it’s considered by copyright. A 3 line boilerplate is neither novel nor a major part of the original.

The refresh can be done with the old key, within the time-window. You only need the deeper key for the first time authentication, when starting up or provisioning the service. What you have to consider is that starting a service is often no

This is exactly how Ansible-vault works. It's many times better than committing them plain, but I'd still vote for some external service providing the secrets runtime only.

Trust me, half the recipients of the email would have forgotten about it within a week. You'd be lucky if they even opened it in the first place.

Code-reviews? Should be a ritual you do on your own code before commiting+pushing and should be a ritual that others will do in the PR before merge (arguable here a secret is already compromised).

It's not only some rando on the internet. There's always that one co-worker with a wannabe-vim-hacker setup, that you have to help occasionally with some real work task and nothing in their setup ever works effectively (bonus poin

Django requires you to have imported settings.py and be connected to the database first, before you can even import a model. It makes it impossible to write modules with type hints and modules which are partially usable outside of Django

I ask this question a lot too, and yeah it’s shocking to see how many that believe things like magic quotes or some other unknown layer solve everything. Magic quotes is of course very different from an ORM doing the application-specific en

Who, working with these things regularly, does not have docker installed? There is already an official image available so you don’t need to write dockerfile yourself. Having an instance up and running is literally just a docker run command

Well, I think a fair presumption is that the option compared with is still distributed. Network latency and disruption is always going to be an inherent part of such. The comparison was more against rpc without async. Primarily, async expos

Async functions, now available in many languages, solves many of the issues RPC had in its childhood. With the problem that you get "colored" functions. Thinking about it that's probably a good thing, because with RPC you had

Simplicity is good but often not the solution to make things faster. Most obvious example. Binary search is faster than linear, at the cost of more complexity (that can often be hidden under an abstraction). Async code is often perceived as

The python equivalent is in the urllib.parse module, part of standard library.
