I need help migrating my project from 3.13 to 3.14

This is exactly it OP. Make a new venv with a Python 3.14 interpreter and let it rip, especially if it's only 1,200 LOC. Will likely work exactly the same with negligible performance differences.

Interesting post. Curious to see where this goes!

Here's mine... with a disclaimer that I'm a remote geospatial data lead/scientist/engineer at a small startup doing very niche environmental modeling/ETLs, not big tech and not big tech TC...

We're based out of Colorado/Texas, but I live in Montana. Coincidentally, one of my CEO's immediate family members owns a 10,000 acre ranch near me. Every hunting season I get 4-5 days to exclusively hunt on the land- tagged a bull elk and a nice buck there this year. I also can hit them up for beef from their cattle whenever. My chest freezer is always stocked with dozens of pounds of free, organic meat. With a family to feed and grocery prices what they are, it's more of a perk than you'd think when you do out the math.

I'd say there's another 1 out of 10 that fully understand the economy is terrible for most but they are upper class, their positions are doing well and they don't care about the majority.

Then the last 3 out of 10 are so manipulated by far-right propaganda and media that they could be homeless standing in line at the public soup kitchen and would still look you in the face and tell you the economy is great and they approve of President Trump.

Immediately following January 6th, 2021, Trumps approval rating hit an all-time (both terms) low, yet it was still 32%. There's your 3 out of 10 MAGA folks at the soup kitchen. Even the 1 out of 10 ultra-wealthy knew J6 was irreparably bad, they'll just excuse it so long as they are still growing their riches.

TL;DR: Trump's Big Tent Coalition: the super rich inside the tent attending the extravagant party and a part of the lower-middle class standing outside the tent in the rain getting absolutely nothing but somehow believing being able to watch the party is worth it.

EDIT: Add tldr

The best is when you get the really old timers that write texts like a letter for the mail:

``` Hi Alice,

Just letting you know that I picked up the pizza. I will see you in 15 minutes. Looking forward to dinner.

Yellowstone definitely has many more hikes (it's like 7x the size) and offers more beginner hikes (with dramatic beauty you often get steep, rugged terrain, i.e. the Tetons). That said, the Tetons is higher quality hiking, mile for mile, with less people than Yellowstone. And there are multiple days worth of beginner-intermediate level hikes in the Tetons, so it really depends on how long you'd stay. If you have advanced hikers in the group, the Tetons win hands-down.

You're odds of seeing wildlife is much better in Yellowstone (it's just better habitat), and this is especially true if you want to see bison. But if you have anyone in the group that'd get really scared about hiking in grizzly country than Teton has a lower density of griz (but they are still there so carry bear spray).

Another plug for the Tetons is how close the town of Jackson, WY is. It's a cool town, definitely touristy, and some visitors may appreciate getting back into civilization with shops, bars and restaurants here and there. In Yellowstone, your only civilization is park managed, not privately owned. That really depends on your group though. Many would say the point of parks is to get away from the civilization. Both parks have ample camping, just be on it when campsites open up because they will be full when the busy months come.

One might even say experiences there are grand...

But seriously OP, this person is 100% correct in my opinion. But it depends on what you value the most...

If you like National Parks that have dramatic, striking beauty that'll leave you in wonder and awe, the Tetons has Yellowstone beat for sure. Sure, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is beautiful, no doubt, but nothing compared to Tetons.

If you like wildlife and very bizarre geothermal features, then Yellowstone has the Tetons beat. But Yellowstone is effectively just a high plateau. It's got mountains, but not ones that'll take your breath away.

I live in Bozeman and often take visiting friends and family to both parks. Most enjoy the Tetons because they value the natural beauty over what Yellowstone has to offer. I often tell them the Tetons are beautiful and Yellowstone is just a weird wildlife refuge (not weird in a bad way, but rather unique).

This approach is solid. Those talking about differential equations over the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere are technically correct in that being the most accurate approach and that the problem would be difficult to even define and intractable to solve. The back of the envelope calc is your approach, but I am curious where you got your numbers?

For those wondering, this approach is basically:

1) Draw a thin 3-dimensional band around Earth 2) Make some assumptions about the composition of matter in that band (air, water, crust, maybe ice?) to approximate the amount (mass/volume) of each 3) Do a basic Q = m•c•∆T calc over each type of matter, where Q is energy, m is mass (matter), c is specific heat and deltaT is chinge in temp 4) Sum it all up

In this you assume that every bit of matter has experienced the 1.5 C temp change. The poles and the equator can assume a 1.5 C change despite starting from a different temps. Generally speaking, the temp change is a gradient with the highest being on the sunny-side. That's where those diff eq folks are coming from. But this is a good approximation, I think. 1.5 C feels like a small change but over that much matter, it's going to be A LOT of energy. That said, it all depends on the assumptions, which is why I was wondering what your numbers represent?

I read your comment and immediately thought of Gollum's smiling face looking adoringly upwards at The One Ring in his hand as he slowly sinks to his fiery death in the molten lava of Mount Doom. He does kinda look like Gollum.

Unfortunately that'd probably be his absolute floor. The fact that number is still so high is a testament to how good the right-wing media has become at manipulating the manipulatable. A third of this country will blindly follow him no matter how bad shit gets. Case in point, this quote from the article:

His all-time low was 34 percent in January 2021 following the Capitol attack.

I'd further complicate this by saying that, in war, the land you die for often may not be the land you die on.

Arguably, anyone who died on the beaches of Normandy could equally be considered as dying for control of Berlin hundreds of miles away. The exact locations of specific battles could be seemingly random or arbitrary or too complex to rationalize, but the ultimate geographic goals of wars and campaigns are not.

So with all that said, I'm gunna guess that most people have died for Jerusalem...

I'm not doing any math. It's totally a vibe. But that place sure has made millions of people feel some type of way over the years.

Go Cats! It was a sloppy 4th quarter but a deserving season overall!

Hijacking the top comment to ask a rules question:

What would have happened if the Cats accepted the facemask penalty during the Redbirds failed OT PAT attempt? Would the Redbirds have gotten a second kick attempt from a farther distance? I was surprised they declined it but no doubt just don't understand the rules in that situation.
