PTVS itself is open source so there's no worry there (our whole team does it's work as open source wherever it makes sense, and in this instance it would).

We don't have directly control over most of the Windows (they are controlled by VS Code itself). But feel free to file an issue at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python .

Would you (and others) be willing to have an extra 20 MB download to get better intellisense? We could potentially work with the PTVS team on better/faster intellisense, but it would require writing that code in .NET which would mean d

Stating that something is a matter of opinion does not mean that insults do not hurt. Either you don't want people to listen to you so you don't have to worry about what you say or you do want people to listen in which case how yo

See https://bugs.python.org/issue27852 for a discussion as to why there isn't a more general flatten().

I'm implying that they can get the decimal module into Grumpy by implementing enough of Python to support the module (i.e. they don't need to implement the decimal module from scratch because the module isn't implemented only

The decimal module in Python 2.7 is implemented in pure Python: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/2.7/Lib/decimal.py (in Python 3 there is an accelerated extension module that's used when

The ast module itself is in Python, but it imports the _ast module which is an extension module. This actually isn't that big of a deal, though, as the entire AST is defined in a DSL (see https://cpython-devguide.readthedocs

As the author of the post being linked to, I just wanted to say thanks for all the kind words being said in this thread that are directed at me. For those that are curious, I'm still contributing to open source (I'm actually doing

Is that still true? Some uvloop benchmarking has shown it to be equivalent to gevent when using streams: https://magic.io/blog/uvloop-blazing-fast-python-networking/ . Plus Python 3.6 has a bunch of optimizations

There's an open issue discussing the idea of an explicit protocol support somehow in Python: https://github.com/python/typing/issues/11 .

It needs to be realized that this dict implementation landed literally yesterday. There are space benefits and it simplifies the language in three places where we are adding ordered mapping guarantees ( kwargs, namespace passed to metaclas

Actually Unladen Swallow's aim was simply to be fast. :) They attempted to do that through using LLVM's JIT but ran into a lot of bugs in LLVM and had to spend their time fixing rather than on Python itself. There was no specific

It wasn't a failure because they couldn't do it, they simply ran out of time as they only had a one year mandate and spent the majority of that time fixing bugs in LLVM's JIT.

Python already has this through Cython: http://cython.org/

by brettcannon 10y ago
It's a possibility. uvloop is written in Cython so it will depend on whether PyPy3 supports what uvloop uses through Cython: http://docs.cython.org/en/latest/src/userguide/pypy.html
