But not all shell utilities follow this particular convention

I have the same thoughts. However my impression is also that most orgs would choose eg databricks or something for the permission handling, web ui, ++ so what is the equivalent «full rig» with duckdb and S3 / blob storage?

I didn’t know plantuml.com existed. Thanks!

What other tool do you use? I guess you want an svg or png output at some point?

I imagine creating a wheel file with your code, metadata and resources? Also recall that a lot of python packages have dependencies written in C, Fortran, Rust etc. Also, many tools exist to create executable programs - basically bundling t

If IT finds an exe file they go bonkers. If they find a PDF, who will even care?

Most browsers can open PDFs but can’t necessarily search large docs quickly.

I would really appreciate if someone could put a decent PDF reader, like Sumatra, into a PDF so I could have a portable and good PDF reader on locked down computers.

But where? It’s got its nice sides but from my experience it’s in the azure web portal only, and I don’t want to write code there.

If you’re working on the build process itself, you’ll notice it a lot!

Now that is remarkable- but so is vim.

Also, most bash scripts run as zsh scripts.

by pletnes 2y ago
Linuxes have zsh. If you install zsh on linux or bash on macos, hassle is same ish. Installing homebrew is required but I always do it myself. Although bash is more often the available shell on cloud services.

Vim (used to be?) insanely much faster on large files, it’s already installed everywhere, it has built-in highlights for all languages under the sun, configuration is easier to sync around (in my opinion). That said, I use both, and jetbrai

Just use the included zsh.

It’s gone on win10 at my office. With a «closed permanently» message.

As far as I understand, windows store is no longer available on enterprise windows. So if you want to sell a business app, it is not even an option.

Vscode will start the server for you, in practice. This is great if you just want to get going. It gives you a bit less flexibility though, if you want to do something fancy. Vscode can also connect to existing servers. This can be very use

I know about the issue and still experience it. Sometimes these things also change over time. Of course, it still helps to use the browser extension!

Somewhat. Lots of sites log you in via a different domain.

Never heard of. Do you have any concrete examples? Would be good to know about for me in 2025.

If you need to work on numerical computation with spherical harmonics, I’ve used this library with some success. https://github.com/SHTOOLS/SHTOOLS

Spherical harmonics are exact solutions to electronic states for hydrogen-«style» atoms.

True. Although if a tool is written in python, it can easily be installed with pip install. I’ve seen so many people get confused by doing pip install poetry in way too many places resulting in a very confusing work environment by having di

by pletnes 2y ago
You’re mostly correct. However in practice this has failed to materialize. The issue which I think confuses people is the conflation between the python environment of the packaging tool and the environment you should use for your code. Even

My impression is that companies like databricks because of the framework it offers for organizing data workflows. Spark is then used since it is how databricks does its processing. Microsoft’s synapse is their «ripoff product» which tries t

I’ve been missing a python tool like this that isn’t written in python. Conda was good in this regard - having a distribution without first installing python is a massive improvement to the «getting started» problems in python.

The cat is dead. The cat is no longer alive. These are equivalent enough, usually, but fails string comparison.
