It's not a sampling problem, but more a gambling problem, as in the gambler's fallacy?

Tend to your personal relationships like a garden, especially when you're younger since it becomes much more difficult to establish meaningful relationships the older you get. It's only my experience, but that is my greatest regr

Throwing this out there for criticism... I use `python3 -m pip install -t .pip -r requirements.txt` and add .pip to my PYTHONPATH. That works for me without having to use any of the python virtual env tooling, basically trying to get somet

Killer keyboard feature for me is ~/Library/KeyBindinds/DefaultKeyBinding.dict - all text controls honor that. Very nice way to get basic emacs shortcuts defined. I've yet to find something half as simple & effec

Perhaps it's just a factual element. Or perhaps the intention is `s/python/pragmatic/`. Yeah, python sucks in many ways but is it really so horrible? I know! Let's ask the reader to get intimate with a static co

My approach is to copy, paste, & tailor the programmable completion for a command that has similar interface to my mine. Can try browsing /usr/local/share/bash-completions/completions or `set` & search for

Try `PYTHON -m MODULE` as in `python3 -m pip` if you want to make sure to use python3's pip, `python2 -m pip` for python2, `~/bin/python -m pip` for a personal python install, etc.

I interpreted that as not making his "intro to ocaml" REPL-centric, so that things like the build tooling gets covered.

For those interested in a lua example, from this article [1], I found & cherry-picked bits from here [2]. The key ingredients (to aid searching) are init_worker_by_lua_block & balancer_by_lua_block. [1] https://medium.co

VPN companies don't care too much about customers that are concerned about privacy - too small a percentage of their customer base. Catering to those trying access geo-blocked content is where the money's at.

Yes? I think we get more done in the short-to-mid-term but the fruits of our labor are less likely to survive long-term. There's no value judgement there - there are pro's & con's. At 40 years around the sun, I've

For that flavor, maybe try: python3 -m pip install -t .pip ... export PYTHONPATH=".pip:$PYTHONPATH" Use whatever directory name you prefer instead of .pip. Mucking with PYTHONPATH is a bit dirty.

I tell people to `ipython; %magic`. For all of python's faults, that REPL is the gold standard and makes for a nice way to learn the language.

Are there any tools or sites where crowd-sourced dictionaries is a key feature? As a developer of an app, I would like to have basic actions (eg open, save, login, cancel, ok) translated to all the locales.

I think context/scale/application is important. Classical Newtonian physics takes us pretty far pretty accurately until we get to more micro or macro scales. For example, if wanting to model a physics engine in software and the

While I view python metaclasses (metaprogramming in general) as a tool of last resort, I have to agree with you. I applaud the attempt - I think it fills an important gap between lists/dicts, namedtuples, and classes. Implemented as

Although after looking at it some more, it bears little semblance to bash - kills my "common denominator" argument. I prefer a more bash-booster approach: bash plus common functions to standardize on.

I see bash as a lowest common denominator for ops & sys admins. There would be too much friction getting the pack to agree on python, perl, ruby, etc., especially since most of the code would be shell'ing out commands to /bin
