Unfortunately this is the the norm of most package managers these days, and I feel sorry pip can’t make the out-of-the-box experience more pleasant for you. If you got ideas how pip can improve the experience without compromising the zero-

Thanks for the correction :) Sometimes sarcasm is difficult to pick up when it appears without context you’re near the center of it, if I must make up an excuse.

Can’t blame it on the organisers. In general keynotes don’t provide details beforehand, and I suspect they are as surprised about this as you are (maybe except some insiders that wouldn’t spoil anyway).

There’s a command in pyenv called “python-build” that more or less automates the Python compilation part. Most don’t realise it (it’s hidden from the general UI) but that’s where most pyenv functionalities come from. I agree the rest of the

The TypeScript comparison is on an entirely different axis though, the compiled <-> interpreted one. One of the reasons languages go with the type hinting route is actually to avoid a separate compilation step like TypeScript. That ma

This is indeed a much-speculated reason behind the heavy-handed lockdown (but without substantial proof either way, it’s anybody’s guess).

The lack of Ruby support instantly rings an alarm for me because CPython (on POSIX) also is not relocatable, but is listed as support. Turns pit Hermit is actually using a third-party build script[1] instead of the official one. While the p

My guess is it’s because PyQt. AFAIK there’s not a JS binding (or any other language really) for Qt that’s nearly as established and steady. If you’re going with Qt, Python is the most reasonable choice (other than native C++ of course).

Nitpick: These are names with no _vowel letters_; many (if not all, depending on how you define what a vowel is) of these letters are pronounced with a vowel.

I read somewhere that one reasoning is with DST, children need to leave for school early, which is relatively unsafe (evening is not a problem because school ends earlier). But I guess the perfect solution is simply shorter work hours acros

Off topic, but FYI I thought your page was broken when it’s loading on my phone. All I could see was the table of contents, the main text is barely visible (like 10px) on the very right edge of the screen. The TOC didn’t close until everyth

To somewhat relief your confusion (but not nearly entirely; the KMT switching to pro-unification is in itself extremely incomprehensible that even Taiwanese don’t understand), the KMT never held the view “Taiwan is the only China”. Their or

I’m curious, where did you get those pre-commit configs from? I’ve seen many projects use pre-commit, and all of them use https. From what I know, pre-commit’s documentation also only provides examples with https repos, not git:, from prett

Furthermore, urlparse is almost always the wrong choice for the job. It parses path parameters (not to be confused with IRL parameters aka query string), which is why it splits in semicolon in the first place, an obsolete practice that I do

The article is correct on all factual grounds; Alibaba has been suspended of its participation as a 网络安全威胁信息共享平台合作单位 (whatever that means), and the agency sources that law as the reason. Now you can argue the law does not actually say Ali

Depending on the use case, especially if they’re developing a frontend project, this may be a non-issue. It’s very much a YMMV situation.

Adding my voice to say this is not a bad idea at all in practice. Before anyone trying to apply the same approach to other ecosystems, however, be aware that (frontend) JavaScript is kind of unique in this. In most languages you’d likely ha

I’m genuinely very interested in the kind of data you’re dealing with. It’s common to need to reorder a list of strings, but I’ve personally never had any use case that requires me to reverse or sort _characters in a string_ to consume any

Yes, sorry, the wording I used was misleading. What I meant by “contribution” is in a broad sense “something that helps”, not actual OSS code contributions.
