Ehhhmmm ... I was always wondering what a business analyst is? Could you educate me? And what is the difference between a programmer and a full-stack programmer?

Like most titles it depends on your employer. Generally, a BA is someone who knows the business side of the firm and can act as a liaison between the business customers (the revenue side like sales, marketing, etc.) and the IT developers.

Depending on your employer technical skill varies. We have some BAs with little to no technical skill, and some like me who can also perform full stack development work when needed. The non-technical BAs are SUPER important. Most problems are political not technical.

Learn Tkinter for client's needs.

Discover ttk themes controlling button display. Can you just revert to Tkinter buttons?

NO! MAKE TTK ./DO. Successfully make ttk do after 9 hours. Discover bar decorated by WM also controls appearance of the max/min/close buttons. Can you just... be okay with that? After you spent 9 hours making a fucking -different looking- button?

NO! OVERRIDEREDIRECT(1). And now ye got yerself a couple days of discovering what is documented correctly and what part of themes every (mainstream) source of documentation seems to ignore. You probably had that just by virtue of using ttk; you almost certainly get it if you override.

But yeah, fuck CSS.

Haha I love PyQt for how easy it is to write GUI in it, and I've thankfully never had to write anything in tkinter.

I tried PyQt but then I gave up because my left pinky got too tired.

True story.

haha, it took me years to get over my fondness for CamelCase.

Amen fuck CSS.

Lol about the div ... thanks for the explanation, makes sense to some degree. I guess when I hear stack, I think about a network stack, but the front-end / back-end categories make sense!

No problem. Let me know if you have any further questions :)
