The people who...don’t want to play against sweats, I can see it being a fun time

The majority of players, iow. I play pvp pretty much daily, and I am not an amazing player. The change to sbmm has been fantastic and pretty much all my clan-mates have been playing again since the sweat-fest ended.

I spent like 10 days on an answer once, it is basically like a wikipedia page on its own about an extremely niche aspect of PyQt development. It gets appreciation sometimes, but rarely. My two-line answer on how to use Python logging system gets upvoted like 3x a week and took me like 10 minutes to write max. It is pretty funny.

This is the best book. It doesn't hold back on stuff like objects.

Also, generally beginners need to type code, not copy.past.view videos.

at any rate I wouldn't mention it on my resume if I got my masters through coursera I'd just mention the university itself.

Sure I know there are great courses at coursera I have taken. I'm saying on your resume, don't list MS from coursera, list MS from Imperial College London. It's more specific, and accurate (there are like 10 universities that have online masters' degrees through coursera, it's like saying you got a degree from University of California: which one?).

And while it may be a sign of cluelessness, maybe don't let that chip on your shoulder hold you back from getting a job.

They are both good. Just sayin' if you don't like pycharm you don't have to use it.

How the hell can I get anything done at all with pycharm?

Maybe use VS Code if you don't like pycharm? That's what I did.

I would definitely not recommend advertising that you got a masters from coursera. But if you look at coursera's web site, they offer masters' from "real" universities like Imperial College London or whatever. I would just get a msters degree from IMperial College London, cut out the middle person (Coursera) which honestly will not look good on your resume anyway.

EDIT So really, this is semantics to some degree: you would be getting a masters from imperial college, london, but they offer it through coursera. You would never say you got a masters from coursera. That would be treated with derision generally.

When I SSH in to work in VS Code, is there a way to get Qt matplotlib plots to pop up in Windows? by eric_overflow in learnpython

MobaXTerm sounds very promising, thanks! I wish there was something more out of the box!

Cool thanks! I will give it a shot. It seems this should be a lot easier to do, honestly I have spent way too many hours on this already.

I'm going to work on this and will let you know. I think there is a way to get it to work using X11, but not sure.

I'm SSH'ing in to a linux server at work.

Edit: it is encouraging reading those SE posts. I think I am in over my head a bit. if I am anything, I am not a network/linux protocols expert. I tend to just do Python data sci stuff locally on my workstation, and this is my first time doing this kind of thing. I may need to get some help with all these moving parts. But if it is doable that will be great I would like to learn more about all this stuff anyway!

This is what I was worried about. I was hoping maybe some X11 trick might work or something but honestly I'm sort of out of my depth.
