There was a dynamic graph somewhere showing the number Python 3 and Python 2 packages on PyPi against time, no amount of googling can find it, does anyone know what I'm referring to? I'd love that link.

I'm very surprised to hear you say that. My experience of Rwanda is that the issue is always just below the surface. I spent three months there 3 years ago working as a Physics teacher. The election was on when I was there and it was r

I would. I only eat "non-organic" food, crop yields are much higher with artificial fertilizers and pesticides. I think it is extremely irresponsible not to do this given how much land is used for agriculture and how many people in the worl
