If having copyright were a prerequisite of training data this would be true. But in the US this hasn't been tested in the courts yet, and there's reason to think from precedent this legal argument might not hold ( https:/&#x2

The difference between this attempt and previous attempts is: * The PEP has been announced to be accepted (Steering Council are still working on details for final wording) * Many things are already landing on CPython main in preparation for

My understanding is most low hanging fruit were picked for Python 3.11. And the faster CPython team have been looking at more mid to long term goals with the addition of a JIT and other accompanying infrastructure around for 3.13 and 3.14.

What is or isn't "pythonic" is largely determined by the community not the language. Nothing is stopping the Python community from monkey patching everything like the Ruby community does. The f-string changes arrived because

Google Desktop was not released before October 2004 though. And even then, what was its significance on the general desktop space? I used it heavily, but I didn't know anyone else who had it installed.

The link you've given shows Google had the majority of market share by October 2004, which is in line with what the parent comment states (at least the way I parse it). What were they paying to be default on prior to October 2004? Smar

That's a very under specified criticism, what type of complexity do you think it has introduced and how do you quantify "minor gain"? Some people clearly think it is an appropriate complexity to solve for the gain it gives, h

By having a well-defined syntax, it allows: * Other Python implementations to correctly and confidently implement f-strings * CPython to use its regular parser to parse f-strings rather than have a special sub-parser * Lots of edge-cases wi

FYI pip is specifically not a package manager, it's a package installer. Pip does not attempt to resolve dependency conflicts of already installed packages, only the ones it is currently trying to install. Nor does it try to manage the

Well I was replying to this: > I wish python and it’s libraries wasn’t so inefficient. And it seems like Pulp isn't a solver by itself so comparing it to gurobi doesn't make a lot of sense? I see gurobi also has a Python interf

Taking a look at pulp it just seems to be a solver abstraction API and all the real work is done by solver libraries written in lower-level languages. It looks like the default solver is COIN-OR CLP/CBC, and that's written in C++:

Also there had been a growing trend for most popular packages to offer precompiled wheels on PyPI instead of just sdist releases. This meant that people who had moved to Conda because they couldn't get Pip to install important packages

`rotary_embedding_torch` has not defined any build requirements hence your error: https://github.com/lucidrains/rotary-embedding-torch . You therefore need to install `numpy` before installing `rotary_embedding_torch`.
