Shameless plug: https://github.com/baverman/build123d_draft Experimental extension to make code-cadding as terse as possible.

Actually in Python you could recast (zerocopy) bytearray as other primitive C type or even any other structure using ctypes module.

Thank you for posting it. It's the launcher I didn't know I need! My usage pattern is literally: use first desktop for often used apps and search for everything else. Samsung launcher search is quite shitty and slow and takes cons

I could live with 1-indexing but a closed range array unpack (slices) is quite big toll and breaks nice intuitive invariant.

1 case: 14w * 1h -> 0.014kWh * 40p of total cost. There is nothing complex. 2 case: It's an issue with mAh markings. Battery rated in Wh has same simple math. There are no consumer issues jot solves. More over additional ~10^3 magni

It's hard to see practical strengths, especially with provided code examples. Most of tax code is stack tossing hiding core logic. Code as structure could be more conveniently expressed as language data structures as structure nowdays.

It would be great to have **kwargs as frozendict by default. It could help with caching decorators to speedup key construction. For example natural key is simply `(args, kwargs)`.

That's my point. Python has convenient and good type design with str.join ignored by other languages. For example I'm lost which abstract class to inherit in Scala to obtain mkString for my custom container.

by bvrmn 10mo ago
From typing perspective there is no sense to have Container[T].join() -> str for any T.

It's funny. One can't simply write a correct C code. Even after years of practice. void strclone(const char* str, char** outCpy) { size_t len = strlen(s) + 1; *outCpy = malloc(len); memcpy(outCpy,

It bothers me that majority of languages ignores a nice python approach. `', '.join(any_str_iterable)`. Instead of supporting join for myriads of containers there is a single str method.

Tailwind utilities related to flexbox/grid solved most of layout issues for me. Usually it's flex-1/flex-none to mark dynamic/static parts and gaps to separate elements. Constraint based systems usually require more inpu

Slices and UB-explicitness are quite nice comparing to C. Makes head free to think about really important things.

The issue with state you should handle it. Compare for example some iterator implementation in Java and Python. Latter needs only one method with coroutine and no state to store on object level. > the state is already enough to explain a

Coroutines as a technique to implement state machines is the first things which comes to my mind. It's a more abstract and requires a way less fundamentals to know comparing to concurrency.

Technically there is dataclass_transform [1]. It's an ungodly hack, I don't know how it passed PEP review. And support by type checkers is questionable. After TS python hints feels like rigid and total unsound mess. [1]: https:&#

I guess you didn't work with good type system then. Look for TS, for example. How it allows to make strong typing for pydantic-like libraries in FE world. All how it allows to type routers.

`::` is quite strange. 1) It only allows to resolve nesting conflicts for a single level. 2) Could be hard to read and could lead to reasoning mistakes. 3) Looks like an attempt to differentiate HUML from YAML somehow.

I have fond memories for mc during my transition from Windows and trying to replace DOS Navigator and Far Manager with something similar. Started to use ranger a long ago though and never came back.

In general case generating CLI options from app models leads to horrible CLI UX. Opposite is also true. Working with "nice" CLI options as direct app models is horrendous. You need a boundary to convert nice opts into nice types.
