This, people in this thread are talking like the defaults like they were handed down by devine beings from the ancient past. The truth is that they are often just warts from and old past that can't be removed for backwards compatibilit

On the other hand, many many packages on https://pypi.org/ have not been updated in the last 5 years since they are essentially feature-complete. They don't need active development, the feature-set in the last publishe

I wonder how the defaults would be chosen on such a platform - especially for visitors that have no profile.

Thanks, very interesting! Seems to have fairly high variability across regions (94% in Japan), would be interesting to see a split between industries as well.

As a Python programmer, I've found that since I started using `mypy` I've written a lot more classes - I generally like using multiple small functions, but classes have two big benefits for me: 1. I don't have to repeat /

I've tried 8+ different task tracking systems (though never Jira), and each has had it's merits, but has always been some critical feature missing for me. Be that custom metrics for sorting, performance, looks or something else. S

I'd really recommend listening to Rich Hikey's "Spec-ulation" talk, it's about changeing (growing and breaking) APIs. The main part starts about 20 minutes in, but the whole talk is good. https://youtu.b

I'd say that black is way too opinionated, especially since it doesn't produce good output a lot of the time. At my company we consistently have to adjust the way we write code in order for black not to mangle it.

The quotes are not the issue, but rather the curt responses that don't offer any solutions to the criticism, or alternate ways to view the issue.

You're agreeing with each other - the ORM reduces the need for annoying and typo-inducing boilerplate.

There's certainly big differences in command line apps and terminals though. Features like tab completion with inline docstrings, fish-style autocomplete, history with search-as-you-type, infinite scrollback, semantic colors, consisten

How do you work with bug triage in Clubhouse? So far I've found categorising a bit difficult, especially for long-term tracking of issues.
