The removal of spaces around keyword arguments is per the PEP8 style guide. There is no point arguing with the style guide. It is there to end discussions. I also do not agree with everything in the style guide. But I keep that to myself. B

I was just wondering the other day why all espresso machines seem to have the same loud pump from the same factory. The pump is just a plastic tube, a sping, a valve and a huge coil around it that vibrates on mains 50/60Hz. Essentially

That may aso be a factor, but in general machines under 500 euro cannot be repaired economically as it easily costs 100-200 before the manufacturer even has a look. And this usually results in replacing a subassembly like the entire PCB at

This is also my observation. The cheaper I sell stuff on the local version of craigslist, the lower the quality of the buyers. No shows, non responsive to messages, whatever. I gave up on putting up stuff for free. The reason I put it up fo

So what do you use to know if you need to build it yourself or if there is already something out there? Niot being able to find a tool for the problem does not mean it doesn't exist, just that you haven't found it. Especially when

I am genuinely impressed with what I see: Customisable tables, document editing as in notion combined with the drawing features (which I presume are inspired by Miro). The endless canvas / presentation feature reminds me of Prezi (but

That rogue or freak waves exist has been known a long time, it is just that the standard theory could not explain them. Just look at a wave recording like this [1], one might assume this outlier is a measurement issue. When 99.999% of obser

All bakfiets models come with (optional) rain tents, so young can kids stay dry and out of the wind. Cold is usually more of an issue than rain on longer trips. In a bit of snow, I feel a lot safer on my bike than in a car. Just adjust spee

After over 15.000 Km of cycling with our bakfiets, I think I oiled the chain maybe 20 times. Replaced the tires once (and a few spokes due to user error/ring lock still locked+kick stand+two kids in the bike is not a good combo). Still

Also, as people have a life expectancy in the order of 100 years (75 perhaps?), there is a pretty good chance you will experience a 1:100 year event at some point in your life. Also a lot of infrastructure is built for 50-100 year life (or
