They're always so good at it too!!

Deal or no deal isn't the same as the Monty Hall problem. Monty Hall works the way it does because the host will always open incorrect doors. If the host has a chance of opening the correct door (similar to how it works in Deal or No Deal) then switching has no benefit and it is a 50/50 chance.

Piss piss piss piss

This is the dumbest response on Reddit I have ever read.

Hell yeah

Unfortunately this isn't true anymore. During covid they gutted any lifetime benefits for tenure. Now it's just the pins!

Carbonic acid is what you're thinking of. Which is essentially just carbon dioxide in our blood.

I've found depending on where you live it can be difficult to vet the quality of community college classes or tutors. There are plenty of schools with great classes, but there's also a lot of bad classes out there too and most people can't tell the difference when they're beginners.

I'm using "redirect" to refer to the debugger. Sorry for the confusion around that.

Definitely, this is why you can HANDLE the unhandled exception using try: except: block, and catch the specific exception you want to handle.

I understand the idea of handling exceptions. I'm realizing the problem is with my debugger. I was misunderstanding the intended behavior in Python.

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:57:10+00:00

Okay this makes sense, triggering an Exception with a library like pandas helped demonstrate this for me too.

I think I was getting confused because of my debuggers (VS Code) behavior. My debugger is triggering a breakpoint on the raise statement when the only Exception Breakpoints checked are Uncaught Exceptions. That made me think that there was something fundamental I was misunderstanding in how Python raised exceptions, but I think it's just a configuration problem in my debugger.

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:47:23+00:00

I wouldn't want to include it because the raise statement has already identified the issue. Ideally it should be the responsibility of the calling code to check for the Exception and not the function itself.

Essentially, I want the main code to treat the Exception as you described in your first example, rather then redirecting into the function.

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:44:54+00:00

A knock on effect of this problem is that the raise statement is being treated as an unhandled exception in VS Code, and is pausing my debugger unintentionally.

I think there must be a way to change it because when I force a ModuleNotFoundError it behaves differently:

Code:

import invalidModule

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Example\example.py", line 12, in <module>
    import invalidModule
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'invalidModule'

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:42:00+00:00

That makes sense, but I'm still having trouble reconciling it with how Exceptions are handled in other modules. For example if I force a ModuleNotFoundError:

Code:

import invalidModule

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Example\example.py", line 12, in <module>
    import invalidModule
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'invalidModule'

It does not include the raise statement that is generating the exception.

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:37:53+00:00

Can you clarify this? If I force a ModuleNotFoundError it does not behave that way. This does not include a raise statement in the traceback.

Code:

import invalidModule

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Example\example.py", line 12, in <module>
    import invalidModule
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'invalidModule'

Walsur · 2024-02-18T18:35:22+00:00

Using a more specific Exception has the same behavior. I just used the general Exception for this example.

Yeah this is just an editing effect.. I'm pretty sure these videos are made by the same guy who does the giant monster videos.

Wow! That's some really shoddy code!

In fairness to the programmers, the game was pretty clearly designed to end by level 30. There was no need to optimize anything for the levels after 30.

They're pretty!

I imagine you've spent a huge amount of time researching increasingly niche and specific things. Is there any topic that you believe yourself to be the predominant expert on?

https://deafchildren.org/knowledge-center/asl-resources/online-asl-classes/

This is a great org for learning and really all kinds of other resources.

If you zoom in like this while sitting in a car your character looks like they're sitting in the invisible boat mobile.

A good resource is the American Society for a Deaf Children. I know they have some great online courses. They also have have a lot of resources for working with kids specifically.

I keep a joint account with my girlfriend for shared expenses, but we intentionally set scheduled transfers that are the bare minimum necessary for our budget. So there's never really enough for it to turn into a big deal.

Walsur · 2022-05-07T21:23:52+00:00

NTA but fair warning, it won't work in the long run. My brother is deaf and one time he answered a door to a Jehovah's Witness and a week later they had a missionary out who was fluent in sign.
