I personally find VSCode the easiest editor to set up for Python development and the most powerful. I tried to set up the remote debugging in PyCharm, but it didn’t work. The refactoring tools available via pylance, linting with pycodestyle

The post is a little light on details: is this just a UI refresh? If so, it would be nice to hear what specifically was wrong with the old UI or in what ways the UI tangibly improves the process of writing, reading or managing emails.

I would love to know more about that. I've got a laptop for which there is plenty of storage on a NAS connected via wifi, but the laptop itself has the same size storage as the phone so can't actually backup the phone.

The “short” could be a problem depending on how short we’re talking. I’m working on thousands of files that can sometimes be only a few kilobytes or less. I wouldn’t expect to use it to speed the process of a single file, but if it could be

Love the video! Being totally unfamiliar with shaders: can they be used to improve performance of things like file operations on multiple files? This week I was working on hashing files in parallel in Python and although it's faster no

Having never used Mako the appeal to me over Jinja is that it allows you to use real control structures. Jinja is a bit of a pain to debug and develop because it does some things slightly differently than you'd do in native Python so e
