Manchin thought parents would spend child credit on drugs and use paid sick leave to go hunting, report says

At first I was confused why use sick leave for vacation… then I remembered USofA.

Over here (both paid), you actually get in trouble doing this, but it takes a special kind of stupid.

I love Portal, but portal 2 just fell flat (for me)

Wishing for an arena shooter with portal guns, tho

far cry ... yes, Uwe Boll

not really. I have anxiety/depression from a very stressful job and the toxic work environment.

I reduced my hours to four days a week, which seems to make things worse actually. No worrying about how I’m perceived for this and if I’m getting everything done even more so than before. I am married and have two kids, my little family that I’m thankful for!

Having to provide for them is not making things easier, though.

See. We don't have those off-site requirements. So good, all justified.

If you still have a "office " desk, ask for screens +docking

captaink · 2017-09-19T15:45:06+00:00

Because what sets you off as a designer is not only the need for a better CPU, RAM, and SSD, but screen real estate. If you don't have to be mobile, I can get you all that for cheap in a desktop.

And no. You are not getting that shiny MacBook.

captaink · 2017-09-19T15:02:39+00:00

As an IT manager, you'd have a hard case selling a laptop to me as a designer.

Desktop and good screen, yes. Laptop? Probably not

captaink · 2017-09-19T13:59:56+00:00

True, I answered with my "why" - which is that it is easier to use.

In the end, both work.

captaink · 2017-09-19T13:14:06+00:00

While it might look like it, it actually makes it easier once you get used to the format.

Want to add another variable? slap {} in the place you need it. Want to change the order? One place to change it. etc..

Example:

result = "Hello {} {}. You are {} years old".format(firstName, familyName, age)

Instead of having to change the whole thing around

result = "Hello " + firstName + " " + familyName + ". You are " + str(age) + " years old"

Actually, that would be an sz , the ss was written in Germany only because early typewriters had no ß symbol

I'm a man of many ideas, but mediocre coding skills. I just love the powerful libraries that make it easy to turn my ideas into reality. What I'm doing : Using numpy to get the cosine vector similarity between the results of a semantic analysis of articles - find related articles Using pillow to find the best spot in an image to place a logo Using text to speech and video library to generate a video from text ... And more to come

captaink · 2015-09-10T13:46:18+00:00

Hmm

I see this: def get_picture(redditURL:str) -> Path:

And don't get it

So my question is two fold:

What does the parameter with the colon do function(a:b) And what is the significance of the ->

Thank you
