This isn’t standard python. lib is not in the standard library. Python also doesn’t have any special variables where it stores comments, other than __doc__ which stores a docstring. If I had to guess, add is reading the file/REPL via __file__.

No, I think it’s a perfectly reasonable thing to do, my coworkers on the other hand…

You and I have very different opinions on what is a reasonable expectation for our respective teams.

Honestly, fair, even if his name wasn’t fortran.

I have a coworker who thinks I’m this guy cuz it’s apparently absurd for us to add the 5 most popular dependencies on the planet to our environment and I’m sentencing us to the doom of dependency hell.

Inheritance makes complicated objects that would otherwise be impossible possible, but it only works if you know those objects really well. The problem is people write ridiculously complicated mystery objects in libraries and no one knows what’s going on anymore.

Yup

I have a coworker with 4 displays, this is for him.

“With modern science, we’re able to see what kind of memes they’re making in the year 2300.”

I’m actually an expert in multiprocessing, which is just as good

You are the reason I have imposter syndrome.

Oh that’s actually the probability density function, must be some quantum mechanics. Not to be confused with a partial differential function, or a portable document format, or whatever the variable is actually referring to.

A few weeks ago, on Monday morning, I was looking through a PR I was working on and decided to make a ticket to write a new function that would be super useful for my current work. I then leave for meetings for the day, then come back in the afternoon and find some time to write some code, and lo and behold, I see exactly the function I wanted was already written. I wrote it at 4:00 on Friday, docstring and everything, 72 hours before I wrote a ticket to create the function. Until rereading it, I had no memory of writing it.

There’s only one monitor in that setup

git checkout -b dontcommitherejerry

Who watches the Watchmen?

Voyager. It’s the only one with a “hide posts I’ve already read” button that I’ve tried, and any app without that button isn’t worth even comparing to.

Oh yeah, there’s also an option to make All exclude communities you’re subbed to, which makes it way easier to discover new communities.

Unless you try to import threading.

And that legacy application is actually only using one of those engines and it’s to do something completely different and the dev who can explain it retired.

I’ve been staring at it for 10 minutes and I’m still not convinced it works.
