I had a cat which responded vocally with “mrrr” when hearing his name. Saying the name repeatedly had an 80% chance of summoning my cat, and a 20% chance that he would come running and jumping up into my hug. I loved that cat so much. Smart loving bastard who liked to also chew on my wife’s foot on her way to the bathroom at night, and lovingly hump his towel when he was bored.

5 babies and parts of their bodies hidden by other babies are all accounted for.

On Linux, I’d just build my own Python binaries and make them available. But you can also use pyenv for the same thing if you’re ok with it.

Then, using poetry, I have different projects with isolated environments.

I’ve enjoyed coffee that was roasted with cinnamon. I’ve mixed in cinnamon with ground coffee myself (in the upper part of the espresso puck only) for a similar effect. Tastes great. Would recommend.

I’ve had coffee with orange juice, which was weird but ok.

As long as you mix in good ingredients, you get something good, that individual taste would judge if it’s likeable.

After all, what’s so objectively likeable about bitter bean juice in the first place?

I have a work environment, which has a symlink to my private notes. Then I use it for some other stuff too with separate, tinier vaults, but I found that unless it’s accessible in my primary vault, it will be ignored and forgotten.

But it does get annoying when is search I find both Linux notes, interview notes, and D&D notes.

Some stays in Turkey do very well. However I’ve seen plenty of cats in need of medical attention (swollen limbs, covered in their own feces, etc) and some people actually harassing them. Same in Greece according to my cousin who was doing some charity work on an island to improve cats conditions.

Stray population needs to be small enough for them to do well with the help they can get from people. The best thing that Turks do for cats, is too neuter them.

Consider a compromise between traditional espresso machines and button to cup ones, in the form of Breville Oracle. It’s only a bit more effort than just a button, but what you get is better coffee than similarly priced automated machines, the opportunity to use it as a traditional machine if you wanna, and the ease of cleaning.

Not really. I adopted a stray kitten which cost 0$, a couple of vet visits set me back maybe 200$ for most of his life. Cat food isn’t expensive, car toys, and the environment was easy to supply and make it interesting. Later in life he got a tumor, and regular vet visits did cost a couple of thousand bucks and he eventually had to be put to sleep. But that was the most amazing cat, who gave happiness and love to 4 people, and a kitty friend.

If you wanna achieve 9 bars of pressure with a constant coffee beans amount and varying beans type (medium roast, dark roast, different varieties within the same brand, etc) you will need to finetune the grind size setting quite a lot. Even tiny grind size differences have a big influence on your brew.

Convenience and performance.

I’m a dual user of Firefox and Brave on different computers. In order to separate work and personal stuff and shopping, I use different profiles. Easy on brave, needs extension with separate app on Firefox, that doesn’t work on librewolf. And too often I have to stop my browsing because this Firefox setup is less stable and crashes once in a while causing annoyance.

Plus Chromecast. I like the ability to search for a video on the laptop and cast it to the TV.

It’s always a balance of convenience and privacy plus ethics, can’t have both.

Xbrowsersync extension will make it easy to sync bookmarks across multiple browsers on multiple platforms. It’s open source and you can self host it if you want. This for me makes it easy to combine Firefox with brave and similar. Only Vivaldi doesn’t support it.

Hope this makes your browser switching easier and cross platform choices simpler.

This, but, with DatabaseConnection being a singleton, and preventing multiple enter clauses.

You can ensure it’s a singleton by modifying how a new object is built, by overriding the new dunder method. If an instance exists, return that, otherwise create a new one.

Yes. But. Not sexual nudity. Nudity is fine in itself, but the fact that most people see it as sexually explicit, sexually suggestive, or an actual sexual activity, is the problem. Consciously I am for this, but subconsciously I’d still react to nudity as sexual (as most other people), because I’ve not yet encountered enough non-sexual nudity to get used to it. It’s like going to a beach - at first it’s “niiice sexy bodies”, but on the second day it’s like “meh, people making it hard to get to the water”. It’s the novelty.

Wear whatever the hell you want, right? Screw genders and made up rules around them.

So you know that there’s places where you don’t exist? It’s called everywhere else, but unfortunately I’m stuck with a dishonest person who keeps on spewing fallacies.

That can’t be achieved due to dependency compatibility. What if you installed y==1.4, and froze it for a while, and then you install x==3.2, and it depends on y==1.5 or later?

pyproject.toml defines dependency restrictions, so it will be in accordance with that, but the lock file will change every time you add/remove dependencies. Naturally.

It’s worth noting that there are basically just 3 systems worth considering, maybe even just 2.

pip is usually part of the python distribution, so any lightweight project can be finished in 1-5 minutes with pip. It’s also quite widespread and the vast majority of publishers (if not all) target pip compatibility.

Poetry is a great project management framework and it deals with dependency management beautifully. If you’re doing any data engineering or backend development, for any project that has more than 1 dependency and 200 lines of code, then Poetry is probably the best tool to use. Poetry makes the whole mess with helper tools like pip-tools seem outdated.

Conda is for the crazy world of data science libraries where developers don’t bother with compatibility too much. Conda does it for them. And the users of those libraries can benefit from using conda.

I think the big competition is between poetry and pip. Maybe one day poetry will come as part of some Python distributions.

Then your problem is the judicial system, isn’t it?

So how is the police supposed to stop murderers who threaten to murder them? Care to elaborate your ultimate wisdom?

Well it’s good that you care. It’s the multitude of opinions and open discussion, what makes a democracy work.

Unfortunately we have siloes of opinions, so you’re pretty much either trying to yell in an echo chamber or at best, argue with a moderate like me. The moment you’re faced with the people leaning right, some of the rhetoric might be scary for them, and they might retract further into their own silo, where more and more extremist views are tolerated.

The key to a functioning society, is moderation in enforcement of law (so that the state continues to be the only one who is able to, and expected to exert force), and understanding of each other so that it remains an open dialog.

I’m originally from a country where society has degraded into 2 irreconcilable camps, and it got to the point where I can’t even stand my own parents because their echo chambers had lead them to extreme extremes. And I’m not the only one.

Right now what is paramount is a government that optimizes social well-being (think Finland), and the enforcement of those laws, because everyone from Putin (and the general club of autocrats) to fundamentalist fascists everywhere else, want to destabilize that right now. A prosperous democracy is a threat to all of them. Whether you like it or not, we are in the middle of an ideological war.
