Fun time near the T192. Too bad we're not allowed to use it... #SIMO

I really feel sorry for all the folks losing their job today at Twitter. It looks like the worst handled layoff in tech of that magnitude I can remember. Worse though is that everyone who writes about their job loss today is likely going to attract a ton of trolls.

Ce tweet surfe sur du conspirationnisme infondé, ridicule, recyclé, vu et revu.
La coloration des cartes météorologiques est basée sur l'écart aux normes. Un 40°C en août à la même couleur qu'un 29°C en octobre. J'avais fait un debunk complet à ce sujet le 17 juillet.

Version 2 of @pydantic, rewritten in Rust, was just merged! 🤯🎉

A few tweaks and soon a release, 10X faster, including in @FastAPI, for free. 🚀

If your APIs are 10x faster, how much money will you save on servers monthly?

Go sponsor @samuelcolvin 😎

Python clean code tip:

Don't return a tuple of two objects of the same type from your methods

Rather introduce new data structure to return more complex data

Why?

To prevent misusage because of switched position - access values by name

After journeying through a narrow pass, @MarsCuriosity has arrived at a long-sought region of Mt. Sharp enriched with salty minerals – tantalizing clues as to how the Red Planet’s climate changed from being more Earth-like to the frozen desert it is today.

@jangiacomelli @testdrivenio Me and my code are like an untold love story so it's kinda hard to detach myself haha

Introduce new methods instead

How versatile is Python?

Web Development - Django/Flask
Game Development - PyGame
Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence - Tensorflow/Pytorch
Desktop GUI - Tkinter/Kivy
Web Scraping and Automation - Selenium
Blockchain - Web3 .py
And more...

It's definitely worth learning

Python clean code tip:

Avoid arguments with default values - be explicit

Why?

This often results in a working system that is just slightly off the expectation

There will be a day where all these React and other SPA frameworks will be considered legacy and some new hire will have to debug the mess we've created

[TestDriven.io @testdrivenio]

Python clean code tip:

Avoid doing things in only one environment (e.g., production because of rate limits of external API)

Rather use interface and dummy implementation together with mapping

Il y a 4 ans et demi, étudiant boursier vivant à Aix en Provence avec 360€ par mois (moyennant loyer à 330€), un certain Emmanuel Macron taillait 25€ sur mes APL, pendant qu'il s'apprêtait à déverser 2,4 milliards d'euros dans les poches des cabinets de conseil.
