It would probably look cool but I'm not sure it's functional. It would just be 6 TV's showing a person standing on stage. Even in bars where they show 10 football games at once, they only play the audio of one of them, which is the part tha

From where? I have no idea what this takes and what it would cost, but if someone does it, I will gladly publicize it on the blog, twitter, relevant mailing lists local to the flight, etc. -PyCon Publicity Coordinator

Your full package of $2k/mo sounds about right from what I remember, after you factor in server, access, licenses.

If I was correct in guessing that he used XTAPI (via X_TRADER Pro), IIRC that costs around $1k/mo depending on who you go through for the front end license. I was only a developer so I'm not sure what licensing costs are for gateways, but t

PTVS in VS2012 paired up with ViEmu is probably my favorite setup, although I still use plain-old-vim fairly often. I've spent a lot of time in Visual Studio over the years and have come to really like it when I'm doing C/C++/C#, so when th

How is "Ruby 2.0.0 feature freeze" an inaccurate title? I ask because it has been common to use that terminology with Python releases for as long as I can remember, as well as with other projects I've worked on or am familiar with. We would

Nor is it likely that they care. This was a huge waste of time if it was really written for and sent to a recruiter. If they even got one paragraph in I'd be surprised. Delete - next candidate.

Because none of the core contributors use it and no one has contributed patches that make it work there. (Windows contributor who did the VS2010 work)

We closed 3.3 for features months ago (June, maybe?) and it wasn't released. I would have liked to move to 2012 myself but the timing wasn't right. (I did the 2010 changes)

First sentence is false, second is true (by itself). Python 3 isn't becoming `/usr/bin/python` - it will be `/usr/bin/python3` and the Python programs that are shipped on the CD will use that. If you thought Python 3 was going to become `/u

Yeah, that's the spirit! Some person makes a free document that they think will help people, so let's push document formats down their throat. Be sure to tell them about Linux while you're harping on their file format choice.

If anyone has to get approval from their manager, I'd suggest they get moving on that very soon. Look for ticket sales to open up in the fall, and expect them to move quickly like last year. We heard from a lot of people that ticket sales o

It was a feature to both. Check the same document for the 3.1 release (and the What's New).

What do you mean? If you are interested in getting a package into the standard library, Guido is certainly qualified to explain the process. What other interpretations are there?

I'm currently "in charge" of posting most of the PSF related updates, like meeting minutes and resolutions. It's only a once-a-month thing, but it's a huge pain in the ass. To do this, I hop over to my SVN checkout of the site, make a chang

Yep. That was the case when I went through two years ago, and a friend went through the process within the last month and also used Docs.

The printf-style is really only deprecated in the sense that most of the core devs would prefer string.format. There's no formal deprecation policy in place to remove the printf-style. The standard library still uses printf-style, the docum
