I'm interested now that PowerShell is cross platform. For someone reasonably fluent in bash/zsh (and Python, etc.) already, could someone give examples of where they might use PowerShell? http://nushell.sh/ is an

Not sure what you're referring to because there is no "union" method/function. There is currently no non-symbolic built-in way to combine dictionaries in an expression. You may be interested to read PEP 584's list o
255.
by kbd 7y ago
The best way to do dictionary union is already symbolic: {**d1, **d2} This provides a clearer symbolic notation for dictionaries analogous to what's already available with sets. FWIW the pep discusses what this would look like
256.
by kbd 7y ago
The PEP has this section: > The new operators will have the same relationship to the dict.update method as the list concatenate (+) and extend (+=) operators have to list.extend. Note that this is somewhat different from the relationship
257.
by kbd 7y ago
Thank goodness sanity prevailed on the operator! We had a whole discussion on HN last time[1] about this, where I argued that dicts are logically subclasses of sets and therefore should share operators. When I saw this headline I accepted m

Nim also works very well in vscode. Inline compiler errors as you edit, and so on.

What on earth is their justification? You can drive a car, vote, and go to war at 18 but not use a cell phone? What politician would put their name behind this?

It’s at a disadvantage vs pgcli and mycli because they’re in Python and have access to the excellent Prompt Toolkit (which also powers ipython), while usql is in Go. I started using mycli recently and it actually made me joyful about how go
