It is not that stderr is faster, it is that it is unbuffered by default (while stdout is buffered by default). If you flush your output after printing to stdout, you should get a similar result. And well, I am thinking you're talking a

For this specific case, nothing, however let's say you need to know when the user got a specific scope and from who. You probably can answer this question in SQL if you prepared your database to do it (i.e: a changeset table), however

Yeah. When you start anything remotely complex with GraalVM it starts to break, i.e.: anything related to eval (and this wasn't my code actually, however a good part of Clojure ecosystem depends on eval).

Planck/Lumo for actual projects are really slow and I don't know why (0.5s of startup time). For some reason, the REPL is fast, and I didn't investigate why REPL is fast and an actual project is slow.

It is still relatively simple because the conversion between Pathlib<->str is literally one method call (from pathlib, just call `str(pathlib_object)`, from string, just call `pathlib.Path(str_object)`. I know this because I started a

I concur. We use Clojure, and the actual application logic is boring and simple. This is good because it is easy to navigate in code from any project (even from other teams). Complexity is all at our common libraries. So most programmers do

Well, Instagram [1] and Dropbox [2] are probably the biggest Python projects in the whole world, and they both are using mypy and seem to be successful. And my particular experience with it is very positive, even if my project that is using

Python can easily get a B for large projects if you use something like mypy. However sure, where the language really shines is as a substitute for scripts, so smallish pieces of code. And environment... It is complicated. It is not that it

Most DEs are either already ported to Wayland (Cinnamon, Enlightment), have a porting in progress or plan to port it eventually. For WMs, it is more uncommon since they're so coupled with X11 specifics that this makes porting harder. H

This is kind the objective I think. Wayland in most cases (Gnome and KDE) is simply an implementation detail, and Gnome and KDE runs in both X11 and Wayland. The end result is, hopefully, less bugs, more security and more performance, howev

The point is that a keyboard shouldn't have those kind of problems. If it fixes by itself or if it needs sometime, doesn't really matter because most other keyboards works fines for years.

Well, most packages does not pin dependencies. From the top of my head, proprietary packages generally pin dependencies, however in this case it is because proprietary packages are known to broke when a random library updates. When I was re
