   So why this over tcgplayer’s low costs or card kingdom’s generous buylist? Can you make a cart optimizer that works?

   This is a huge problem for me! Frequently I can't hear people at all. My team is fully remote from each other, but we're all required to go into one of the company's offices five days a week. The worst of both worlds.

   This would work in Magic: Arena digital-only formats using the perpetual mechanic plus a variation of the text on a card like Magical Hack.

   Anything that I buy from a Facebook group or something similar over $x, I set up a camera and record myself opening the product. Anything that I sell over $x, I record evidence of packing and shipping. I don't really have a set value f

   I've been using pyjanitor for what seems like similar functionality. How does this compare? https://pyjanitor-devs.github.io/pyjanitor/

   Funny that I was about to comment "it doesn't seem so bad, just draw a directed graph to work it out". Reading your comment it does seem a little unreasonable.

   The argument of untapped talent simply doesn’t influence my employer. Middle managers have been pushing to continue remote, and executives have told us in department meetings that the company values culture above all, and part of our cultur

    I love love love DuckDB. When I can use DuckDB + pyarrow and not import pandas, it makes my day.

    I really don't like these "favorite x" questions. Aren't interviewers just asking something like "tell me about a language you use and why it's relevant to this interview"? Why not ask questions more direc

    Once I discovered DuckDB, I use pandas methods a lot less. It’s so much easier for me to write SQL than to deal with Pandas’ syntax.

    Is the audio jack an apple thing? I'm on a four year old Dell and it's on the right.

    Terrifying, but I drove for only two hours before getting my driver's license in California. At the time (and possibly still) you didn't have to have driver's training courses to take the test if you were 18+.

    I'm always explicit when asked for an estimate. It's not the most political or business savvy answer, but I say things like "this will take 2 hours. On average I'll have two hours of focused time per day, so 10 days.&quo

    Not the point of the article, but what's the idiomatic way to generate [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]? The author's [1 for n in range(10)]? [1 for _ in range(10)]? [1]*10?

    What's new here? I took the SAT in 2001 and checked a box saying it was ok to be contacted. Got tons and tons of junk mail from overpriced colleges I'd never heard of.

    The Seattle Public Library has 769 holds on the ebook of Margaret Atwood's The Testaments, with 146 copies! One copy is ridiculous. This is almost three times the number of holds on physical books (376 physical books total, I'm 28

    All I remember about that room was that it was nearly impossible to find a seat during finals (about 12 years ago!). We used to drive to a 24 hour coffee shop in Dixon instead. Nice to get a few miles away from Davis during finals, but even

    I used to play a lot of all day Magic: the Gathering tournaments where the only option was overpriced convention junk food. 12 hours of stressful competition was enough to keep off hunger and I lost weight from this.

    I use JetBrains IDEs a lot, and on my full size keyboard (kinesis freestyle pro), the key combinations are an uncomfortable for my small hands. Haven't done anything about it yet (and I'm not sure what I'll change), but I cou

    Is this specific to engineers? I noticed this in college classes across disciplines. A lot of the time that someone raised their hand, it was to share an anecdote and not a question.

    Excel is everywhere where I work. it frustrates me to see how it's used and how much it's used, and it's totally unfair. I could rant about how it's unmaintainble, error-prone, time consuming, and cause costly mistakes,

    There are some really cool custom Thinkpads shoving new guts into the classic T60 body. I guess it's not really feasible for MacBooks? I looked for a 2012 or 2013 body with new hardware but nothing. My 2013 is still working, but the sc

    The world's most popular database becomes the world's most popular web framework. Makes sense.

    I don't have kids, but my sister's kids are watching Youtube, not Netflix. They're basically watching the same thing I am: product reviews, just different channels.
