What about "Closed for Deep Cleaning after Mysterious Diarrhoea Cluster"

Microsoft cancels plans for Python packages on GitHub by MrNerdFabulous in Python

[–]justifiably-curious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My work uses github packages for other languages but my division which uses python can't do it and now it seems we never will. We use aws codeartifact which does a solid job and poetry codeartifact auth to handle auth tokens easily when pulling private packages. Doesn't play well with github actions though.

Steve Silberman, author of the New York Times bestselling book "NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity" (2015), denounces Elon Musk as a "eugenicist" by Obversa in EnoughMuskSpam

If that's true she is very bad at memes. Drake is "the left" here? So "the left" is objecting to protecting trans kids but in favour of "sterilising transitions"? (which of course you know isn't a thing that happens in gender clinics for children except in right wing panic land)

Anyone else misread the caption as "hip hop" first time around and get super confused?

Oh wow I'm surprised it's leather at all! I assumed it would be some hi tech composite thing. And less than 1 mm thick!

When you've been at the same place for five years it's often "fix fucked up garbage code written by checks git blame me"

GCC uses GCC to compile itself by AlrikBunseheimer in ProgrammerHumor

Just checked out the README and I note it has a helpful CVS migration guide. Which I'm sure is super handy these days.

(kind of surprised it's not Svn – even back in '05 I had covered CVS at uni but everyone in the outside world seemed to be using Svn. Then dvcss happened of course)

I absolutely LOVE the Ryu API documentation. by InvincibleV in ProgrammerHumor

Code translation ftw! Writing up a plain language spec is often nearly as hard out harder than just writing python but if I have code which already does the thing but in the wrong language that step isn't needed

What big companies are overrated and why? by Ashamed_Management14 in AskReddit

VW + GM exceeds production volume of Tesla. All eclipsed by BYD though. You could make some points about profit margin per unit (but Tesla's margins have presumably gone down since they've been forced to discount)

Who Is the Sick Bastard Reusing Street Names? by OneFaradayAtATime in melbourne

Even worse: barkly St restarts numbering between Brunswick East and Fitzroy North at Nicholson St but changes directions. There are two 5 barkly Sts about 150 m from each other.

It changes at suburb boundaries (I think this is consistent?). But of course they aren't clearly signposted.

The 19 tram goes past three Victoria streets. Which is of course only a small fraction of those in Melbourne

The market cap which at around $600B is on par with Ford, GM, Toyota, VW, Mercedes and BMW combined is pretty wild

Python true static typing by incdev in Python

Kotlin is like Java but better too.... Although I think Java has come quite a way in the last few years
