I had to use debugger on regular basis in Java and C++, but never in Python, because Python programs end up being much simpler. Also, you can simulate large parts of the program in IPython and not only find what the problem/bug is, but

What? how is this better? what all of this is is apt making users say yes to everything such as config changes. I'm totally fine with that. Sure it's an extra line or 2 when automating, but I don't see it as bad.

I agree that it's pretty and the medium really conveys the "cloudy" feeling with the text materializing from whiteness, but I think this is a bad thing for 2 reasons. 1. One of the cores of my cpu is at 100% while viewing the

I like Virgin's https://www.virginamerica.com/ way more than even their beta one. I guess they're going for different demographics.

The P vs NP one looks undoable compared to the other ones.

This is a client-side tool. You do not have to deploy it. Any such tool would have zero dependencies server side. Client-side you can pip install most things in a few seconds.

When you mean shipping, do you mean deploying production apps to the cloud or just downloading/using top-like tools as a user? I thought we were just talking about resource monitoring something. I think deployment is a totally separat

Isn't Python installed by default on most distros?

It is probably carriage returns

I was replying to "If you consider that Java is on version 8 and C++14 is here, we can see that even old languages have done this in a much more organized way" C++14 and Java have extremely minor breaking changes. I'm not say

Yup, enums I use as well, you're right. Still... like 3 trivial things that can be overlooked.

Isn't Python the only one with breaking changes out of this group?

Almost none of these things are used in scientific computing though. Maybe asyncio and yield from.

Pretty much this. Many times I can't even compile a package from source after trying for for an hour, but the author happens to have a .deb file around and everything works smoothly.

Regarding the first point, I had that happen. Just deleted the lock file and it worked great. I agree on the second point, but what is wrong with ppas?

I guess those things could be a configuration thing within apt? Basically I can see it being frustrating in the future with only being able to get a version of something through apt and then trying to not install dependencies that you have

I don't get it... What's wrong with apt? I wish everyone just used one package manager.

True, but as you said, income can originate from existing wealth especially for the very wealthy. Overall, it looks a little suspicious to me because the Manhattan island looks like one of the worst places to move to especially for upper cl

By age 26... At age 26 I was in more debt than I was at any point in my life... Basically this completely ignores time and money invested in education. And I'm not sure how one would control for it if the cut-off is at 26, because peo

On Ubuntu it's really easy though. This is why I switched OSes a few years ago. Things are just easier if you use the same platform as other developers.

Yeah, Python has a huge ecosystem of amazing libs. Many are actually C libs with Python bindings, so they're fast. It would be very time consuming to port them to another language.

Any plans to do let people call Nim functions from Python with Python standard objects like strings/dicts/lists as arguments? This would let people write the fast parts in Nim and slow parts in Python.

Oh you mean all the text parsing job sites that just do if "remote" in post.text: post.remote = True I think they should do a better job with it and not force people to write in a certain way.

Wow that's 2x more expensive than my college was. I think some public schools are great as long as you tell the student that they are there to learn. This way it's completely free for the parent and the student learns to be self-

They should just all be in PPAs on Ubuntu.

The gap on Ubuntu is actually smaller than the same gap on Firefox/Chrome. Incidentally, I like how you can make notes on sites. I wish there were public notes as well for each domain or maybe page. That feature of stumbleupon was gre

Nobody seriously uses AWS ML service, do they? This is the worst idea ever unless it's just to see how well it works, because you have very little control over the algorithms/model parameters.

Definitely agree. The line that is cited by the employee is that the company is "embarking on its largest recruiting / hiring campaign in its history" and that they are very interested in the candidate. This is actually the
