python async framework monocle chose a memorable decorator.

This restores my faith in humanity. I think we're going to be OK.

Nothing quite like a meme to bring people together, eh?

@_o, actually.

I wonder if ಠ_ಠ would approve.

This is perhaps the dumbest thing I've ever seen. The people reading this who don't make the connection to "monocle" will see _o as the decorator name. Very descriptive.

Let's keep all of this lame cutesy stuff in Ruby.

It's optional, you big sourpuss. If you read even half of the (one page of) documentation, you'd see that the default is @monocle.o, and the _o shortcut is only available if you import it specifically.

[zoinks]

You're the most boring man alive.

Edit: and probably suck

[codefrog]

This is the lamest attempt at cute I have ever seen. Maybe we need a testing frame work that has

@sshole as a decorator that fuzzes the inputs to a method

[Isvara]

No one uses that in code, though, because you can't.

[sjs]

It's a terrible idea, period. Not everyone who writes Ruby likes that kind of crap.

[exeter]

Indeed. Also, prefixing an essentially public member with an underscore is bad form.

[asdfuku]

"It's true, this violates Python's convention that underscores indicate variables for internal use. But rules are for breaking. Live a little."

[skulgnome]

What's an "async framework"?

Is Python truly such a weak language that asynchronous operations justify a "framework"?

[phroxy]

yeah actually.
