Pydantic has __post_init__. This is a based on code I have in my editor right now. Typing straight into the comment box so it might be wrong. Toy = Literal['toy'] class Spec(BaseModel): sample_size = Union[float,

The intent of pydantic is to be a parser of (possibly recursive, with composition of classes) key-value "languages". It could, in principle, evolve in a completely different direction than dataclasses/msgpack/dataclass

I had friends at the office and even a kind of crush. One month into the pandemic, we just didn't care about trying to keep the non-work banter going. It's a forced situation; romance as a result of shared stressors in particular

I have the feeling that these announcements never specify that it's mostly programmers or technical people, but HN reacts like it is. Maybe they don't need as many secretaries and gophers as before?

I meant Kinshasa, godamit. I also cited the wrong capital, so I was wrong. But I meant what I said!!

Are we avoiding "Turkiye" as an expression of anti-Erdogan politics? Is it ok to call Kinshasa the capital of Rhodesia?

Can I have some kind of direct contact with you? Email, Twitter DM, Telegram, heck, I would download some new kind of app just to have some conversations.

I mean, it does mistake Frank Sinatra for Louis Armstrong -- I guess it makes errors. But it just refuses to process my img2img images. It breaks down. Why? It made me so agitated I made a gallery[0]. Granted, some of those images are stran

Why does it choke on img2img creations? This is just fascinating. It gives a plausible prompt to at least a handful of real non-AI photos from DSLRs and iphones alike.

Hugged to death already? I often use terms like "sexy", "risque" etc. in the process of getting images that are quite sensible (like military people playing chess). I use img2img repeatedly looking for particular photo-f

Look for the Python package "sentence-transformers" and give it a spin.

Logarithmically related is mathematically related. Heck, related by Wiener noise/integrated random walk is mathematically related, and if you watch 2D animations of random walks you'll soon develop a visual feeling for that.

I call this Peak History. > The five-minutes-into-the-future world being conveyed is thus utterly banal and falling apart at the seams. It reflects an understanding of an indefinitely near-term future seeping into the acrylic-concrete pr

Ah, the times where I worked for a large org and could get away with these variations. Startups and consulting clients can't afford or don't care that you're having a bad couple of weeks.

I think that of all professions, even creative professions, best-selling fiction writers are the easiest to compare in terms of $$$. How does Saint-Exupery's Little Prince fare in total lifetime sales compared with Stephen King's

If you're using something like FastAPI that generates OpenAPI specifications, you can use "schemathesis" for automagical end-to-end testing.

Yes, but functions in Python are not that. Mathematical transformations don't support closures for one. Dictionaries are more like functions and indeed I taught myself to understand hashmaps as "frozen functions" way back whe

Grammarly is very limited in what it allows you stylistically. I tried it for a few months but it didn't let me express all of my thoughts. However muddled and confused, those are my muddled thoughts, damnit.

I've been getting the advice (but I'm learning German, not Japanese) that the best thing is to watch shows with subtitles in the foreign language to gradually acquire it.

It's a pretty place, about a 20 minutes ride from my home/office. Why is it on HN at all?
