I chose to not use either after trying both. Nether solves understanding `setup.py` (they are just indirections on it). Of the two, poetry seemed more comprehensive and stable across releases. There’s a small cognitive load of knowing a co

For strictly Bitcoin a colleague showed me OpenDime[0] which is pretty cool. To get the secret key the device is physically altered. Otherwise I have a few hardware wallets around but haven’t used them much as I didn’t like that some requir

I'm not a lawyer, but I would consider revisiting your icon[0]. It looks identical to Patreon's[1] with a period/full-stop. On a technical note, this looks pretty cool and may have helped me hold off on ditching my mac produc

For those interested in MTB, guerrilla gravity is designed and, as far as I know, built in Colorado. The reviews of their bikes (even aluminum frames) are resoundingly positive. Considering the price points they’re not one to overlook. htt

Can you expand on why/where Guido was wrong beyond why he cites where he (and the core team) made mistakes in the linked talk? I'd disagree about the "need", as the fundamental changes (meaning non-package renaming chang

I think this is mostly due to the 1.x guarantee that anything old will compile on anything new. I don’t know if Python or others formalized the same guarantee, but I don’t remember any issues 2.2 - 2.15.x (of course 2-3 is infamous). Howeve

It’ll be interesting to see how Go (Rust, and other new languages) evolve and if they can avoid some level of package decay when they reach the age of Python, Java, etc.

Guido had a good retrospective on the shift, while the change was hard and painful, it needed to happen for the language to be easier to work with longer term. If you're interested it's worth a watch: https://www.youtub

A funky thing about the Enum class is you may also want the `@enum.unique` decorator in most cases, which enforces the enum/value pair being unique. I found the documentation a little misleading until I found that [0]. [0] https:/

Extending `object` was necessary until 2.7 when it became the default and old style classes were removed entirely in 3. So I think while the GP comment recently learned they don’t need to extend `object` anymore, they are/were familiar

There’s a pretty vocal group that favors GitLab, I campaigned for it internally at a few companies as well - having so much of the tooling in once place is pretty nice. It’s obvious that GitLab is making quick improvements consistently. The

I’d argue (generally) no, because literally every transaction is in the ledger. Then there are two ways to get value back out: 1. At some point you want to get fiat back out, thus associating your identity to transactions. While there are s

To clarify for JWT invalidation, you don’t have to store the whole token. Instead just store the jti or some other identifying field that can be checked.
