Disregarding the implementation details (which will probably evolve and adapt if this ever gets mandatory) I think it's a totally sensible thing as far as the user is concerned. I have the right to know how the information I send you is bei

I think the assumption is that you don't do any tracking by default and then the first cookie you set is to allow you to set other cookies in the future. The ICO would have website owners pop up a box to new users asking them to give conse

I'm at the beginning of my career. I moved to a different country because I couldn't find a job I liked in my own country. I really like programming and I started doing it in my spare time in high school and I still do it in my spare time.

Think of the people making the games you enjoy and how many of them must enjoy what they do because of the obvious quality in the product they are producing. Try to find that for yourself. This sounds very naive. I've gone for beer with v

It's not meant to tell you anything about the project. It's meant to stay out of your way and give you instant access to the areas you're interested in: code, docs, tests/example code etc.

Why do you remove .pyc files?

It's standard.

I disagree. If your project ever gets packaged by a distribution, they will want to split the tests (and docs) into a separate sub-package with different package requirements or even discard them altogether. This will make that job a little

I think one of the goals of the OLPC project is to make those skills easier to learn by using a computer, rather than having the computer as a goal itself. That's why so much time has been spent on creating an entirely different desktop par

They should have an HTML guide which should say: don't write <img> tags which set an image's size to 4x less than its original size, it will look pixelated.

I think whatever they choose to implement it in has a good chance at becoming the next de facto standard.

Hah, I just bought this book from O'Reilly last week. I had no idea it was available online. Though, the ereader formats might be worth it.

So why was he talking about making Python exercises into a Javascript emulator/learner tool when the thread is about Perl?

The HTML guide should say: don't write <img> tags which set an image's size to 4x less than its original size, it will look pixelated. Also, the first page says Contribute! , but there's no link to any sources.

I definitely agree with all that you've said. On the other hand, as someone who doesn't live in the US and could never afford that kind of education, I don't really care. I am actually grateful that I now have access to what looks like a gr

I came here to yell at you that you didn't include a screenshot. But since no one else was complaining about it, I looked again and read all the text in the README and found the small normal paragraph that says I should open the screenshot.

How does this apply to non-US citizens?

I have tried this approach and have been using it successfully for over 9 years now. No complaints so far.

I can not understand this at all. Can someone please explain this strange cultural phenomenon? I'm serious. What could possibly make someone work on anything for 30 hours straight (with only one hour break)? I couldn't imagine myself spendi

This looks less like a reading list and more like a lead-up to the author propping up his own book. He completely fails to mention any of the more advanced Python books like Expert Python Programming or Pro Python and especially Lutz's
