This is why the good lord gave us: https://github.com/psf/black Import line is actually improved with this commit. LGTM, ship it. We now return to your regularly scheduled bikeshedding.

You say 1000 lines is an arbitrary number. Do you actually have a feature in mind that takes it above this artificial limit? Did you even read the code? They like this round number. Fork. Why argue.

Oh no, Marshall, I was being far more despondent and was referring to programming as a whole. Thank you very much for your efforts on BQN. Speaking of TensorFlow, I was looking at tinygrad the other day: https://github.com/g

Well, good. But some nuance is still lost here in my opinion. > in historical-linguistic context it basically only applies to not killing Jewish people This is your own framing. Perhaps you are a timelord or a 3000 yr old man? :) There

It basically does not. At all. I think instead of foisting the most iron age-y least charitable interpretation imaginable you ought to realize that people have had a couple thousand years to develop a body of laws and thought around this. A

I don't know about this one, but there was a teenager that quoted a snoop song on her instagram (not directed at anyone but rather in memory of her friend that died in a car crash) and got threatened with an ankle bracelet and a $1000

82% of the people in Lebanon are currently in poverty, many are living on $2/day and have to choose between food, fuel, and medicine. They have no resources to allocate. It is a failed state. The miner in this case would be, once aga

OK, move to Africa and foster local entrepreneurs and show us all how to do it better. I suggest Liberia as a starting point, godspeed. P.S. - Bonus points if you befriend some locals, show them this post and the service discussed, explain

I did not spend two years and $150,000 on my Scientology classes to end up sounding like a pompous ass completely lacking in self awareness and levity. How dare you sir.
