@pro Yeah, a lot of python has gotten a bit silly about that since the whole "lets build everything with Pandas!" trend started. Just noting that using C++ written libraries wasn't the only way to avoid the cost of python language for loops. Really it's the cost of the interpreter loop itself, and a for loop just means you're doing lots of interpreter loops. If you're trying to either transform a list, or extract parts out of a list, a list comprehension is far better than a for.
@deprecated_ii Heh. I agree that for loops are slow, but using the batteries isn't always the solution. Another solution is List and Dictionary Comprehensions. Written correctly, those will take a single loop of the interpreter, while a for loop will take many loops of the interpreter.
https://returnyoutubedislike.com/ This is one of those instances of the internet treating censorship as damage, and routing around it. Apparently it will now collect any time someone using the extension dislikes a video, and will share it via the extension's servers.
@deprecated_ii Honestly, Python makes certain things so much quicker to code that you can write things very quickly with it. Simple database functions that take dozens of lines in C can be done in a single line with Python. Code that takes one list in, transforms it, and spits another list out can be a single line in python and still be readable, while you're fighting with the memory management in C. You wouldn't want to use it super frequently used code, but for dev tools its fine.
@union Lame. Glad I never signed up there. I didn't particularly care about the political orientation of where I went, just that it was distributed and harder to censor.
@Cheeseness I compared this to last year's big bundle, and this one has at least 40 items that weren't included last year, so it's still a really good deal even if you picked that one up.
@Marko John Campbell's been doing videos on this, basically the people doing injections aren't aspirating the needle to check if they're in muscle or a blood vessel because It's not part of their standard practice to do this. If it is injected into the blood stream it can cause these problems, so they should probably be checking this.
@Clifford Also, there's instructions https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/3.10/Doc here on compiling the docs, then you could use w3m or lynx to browse them, probably.
@Clifford The cpython repository has the entire library reference from the website in it. Doc/library/ all as .rst files, so you can grep them or edit them directly.
@union @Johncdvorak (After all, the "who benefits" of discrediting mRNA vaccines? Also the CCP, because their vaccines are some of the only ones other than India's and Novavax that don't use either DNA or mRNA technology.)
@union @Johncdvorak I read the rest, but that paragraph pretty much clinched it as "this is probably CCP propaganda"
@Johncdvorak The last paragraph is basically one of the dozens of conspiracy theories that have been floated by Chinese media as their attempts at trying to deflect responsibility for SARS-CoV-2, along with the idea that it came in on frozen seafood, that it originated in Italy, that it came from white tailed deer in the US... Every week they come up with a new excuse to throw out there and see what sticks. I suspect the paper is just another propaganda tool from them.
@union You probably have a normal one then, rather than a headline grabbing firebrand like the one I have. Who also ran a open carry cafe up in Rifle before being a congress critter.
