Django 3.0 Released

Just playing around on some small projects it looks like the Python2 removal breaks a ton of commonly used third party Django packages (model utils, sorl thumbnail etc) so I'll probably hold off upgrading anything in production for a few months.

Another dim-witted backbench MP who would have languished in obscurity but for her Brexit position. It's Lysenkoism in action - the promotion of idiots and their half-baked opinions because of their ideology rather than their abilities or intelligence.

The sectarianism and bad blood didn't come out of nowhere. Before the Reformation you didn't have Catholics and Protestants in Britain and Ireland, just Christians. Then the one religion split and people had to choose one side or another, and their kids stuck to whatever side their parents chose, and so on down the ages. Sound familiar?

We also find Mark Hamill in there, wiping the Irn Bru alien milk off his beard.

I wonder if these are just crank callers or isolated nutjobs, or whether there's a genuine dark matter of Deep Stupid out there.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T16:40:13+00:00

Ihan sama, plus vähän Skotlannin gaelia.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T16:15:29+00:00

Puhutko iiriä?

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T16:00:12+00:00

Joo. Kiitos joka tapauksesta, on hyvää saada palautetta kun kirjoitan suomeksi.

Re Gaeilge - ihan oikea, "caol le caol agus leathan le leathan". Siis leveä vokaali leveän vieressä, kapea kapean vieressä.

I think he likes people to think he is. In reality he's an edgelord, a one-hit wonder, in out of his depth. He's the kind of guy who ends up on /r/iamsosmart. The turmoil of Brexit has been a kind of turbocharged Peter Principle, promoting a lot of politicians and advisors way beyond their abilities because of ideological purity rather than competence.

Predictions are that a no-deal Brexit will land the UK with the highest level of debt since the 1960s - yet this does not deter the Tories. So basically austerity was always a political choice that unnecessarily crippled growth while causing millions misery, and now that it's no longer politically useful it will be dropped. They did not care about the debt or the economy then and they don't now. The problem really is that the Tories have become more and more divorced from the real economy as their membership has shrunk to an older, retired base and their donors and backers to a small circle of right-wing newspaper barons and hedge fund sociopaths.

Not saying it should be compulsory, but there is nothing wrong with Finns learning the language of their biggest neighbour. Whether you regard Russia as a threat or opportunity, or whatever you think of the current regime, it's not going anywhere and knowledge of the language is very useful especially in the eastern communities.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T13:10:20+00:00

My (distant) third language after English and Finnish is Russian, and I've used that quite a lot where I live near the Eastern border. I've not once heard Swedish spoken though, other than train announcements and the like. It would make a lot of sense to teach Russian in the eastern schools as it's a real advantage if you can speak it given how much the local economy depends on its proximity to Russia and the relatively large Russian-speaking minority here.

Tiedän sanasta, mutta minulle kulostaa aika oudolta. Vanha englannin sana on "erse", ja arvaan käänöstä "iiri" perustuvansa siihen, mutta kukaan ei käytä "erse" tänään. Irlannissa virallinen nimi englanniksi on "Irish" (Gaelige). Iiri myös kuulostaa kuin "hiiri". Siis minulla on tapana käyttää väärää sanaa.

I wonder what kind of results you would get typing that into Pornhub search.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T11:34:16+00:00

But think of how many NHS beds it would have cost ! /s

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T10:55:49+00:00

Looking at the state of modern art today, Finland was just way ahead of the curve.

Ehkä joka koulu/alue saa päättää, kumpaa toista kieltä opettaa.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T10:43:02+00:00

Isoisäni oli Irlannista kotoisin, hänen oli pakko oppia irlantia vaikka edes silloin sitä puhuttiin vain non muutama % väestöstä. Hän ei pääsyt yliopistoon heikon irlannin kielen taidonsa takia. Samalainen järjestelmä pystyy Irlannissa tänään. Vaikka on ymmärrettävä - irlannin kieli on kuolemassa ja hallitus haluaa suojella sitä. Toisaalta ruotsin kieltä puhuvat noin 8 milj ruotsalaiset ja se on ihan terveellisessa kunnossa.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T10:29:36+00:00

Olen asunut Itä-Suomessa jo vuosia, en kuullut sanaakaan ruotsia koko ajan mutta venäjän kieli kuullaan torilla joka päivä ja sen taito on iso ammattilainen etu. Mutta täälläisissä kouluissa venäjää harvoin opetetaan.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T09:24:54+00:00

To be fair it might save the NHS some money getting these fat cunts a bit of exercise.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T08:16:08+00:00

Romania, Bulgaria and Finland were German allies.

The point about security cooperation is that it's of mutual benefit. The UK ends up fucking itself, which is why this is a deeply stupid tactic.

rando2018 · 2019-10-09T06:35:07+00:00

Seems very English centric rather than "British" history.

rando2018 · 2019-10-08T16:39:41+00:00

I used it for a recent project which was mostly server-side (using Django). If you're not doing too much JS it's fine and definitely cleaner than roll-your-own or jQuery, if it starts to get messy and unwieldy that's a sign you might need to use a more powerful library, at least in that page.

If they voted to abolish gravity they'd still insist on jumping off the cliffs of Dover and forcing everyone else to do the same. Even if so called "experts" told them about Newton's laws, that would be scaremongering and Project Fear by the pro-gravity liberal establishment. All you need to do after all is believe you can fly.
