    I think it depends on how public and how many contributors you have to a feature branch. I think author has the assumption that there is typically one dev per feature branch. Once a feature branch is being worked on by multiple devs (and he

    This is an excessively long blog post that basically states: do stream processing when your data set doesn't fit into memory. with open('in.txt') as input, open('out.txt') as out: for line in input.rea

    I'm surprised GitHub is by far #1. I wonder if it's familiarity rather than preference. Github's minimal approach of using labels for everything is like Gmail's tags over folders. I wish GitHub had a "This bug affec

    My intention is not to be snarky, but people post all the time about discovering the itertools or collections library. I notice it's a common gap in newer Python programmers. Save yourself time and effort down the road and read through both
