@willmcgugan Fully agreed, and Mexican-friends approved. My team liked it so much when I invited them that I got everyone one

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@haxor Some syntax highlighters (is that a word?) use capital R vs lowercase r to distinguish regexes from raw strings

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@willmcgugan The fix should only work for Python 3.11 and above, right? Because only since then time.sleep uses the high resolution timer

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@willmcgugan @MarximusMaximus How did you solve this? I had the same issue with a network packet generator that deviated too much from the desired data rate. In the end I added kind of a control control that measured the actual sleep interval with the high resolution timer

@dontusethiscode Some people will see all the red fields as a challenge

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@ID_AA_Carmack If IQ tests and tech Twitter had a child: "TensorFlow behaves to PyTorch like gcc to llvm"

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@willmcgugan A shame "poor" seems to have been namespace squatted on pypi, otherwise you could have used it for your parameterless version of rich

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@pyblogsal Also love those quality of life improvements in datetime.fromisoformat and enums (especially str/format behavior)

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@pyblogsal I thought asyncio.TaskGroups were the "killer feature" of this release, although admittedly they are not relevant to most users.

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@ChadAChavez @hammer_mt @AlSweigart Probably both. As others have pointed out, Arondir (the black elf) plays a major role and is neither a coward nor a jerk - doesn't he count?

@webology @samwillis @pyscript_dev @nedbat The expecthook and restart as a subprocess was more for dramatic effect though. I want to try out something based on module __getattr__, but I still haven't figured how to map install name to import name (in case they differ)

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@webology @samwillis @pyscript_dev @nedbat It should definitely be possible to create something like "from pypi import typer.v0_6_0", which is valid syntax. Pip normalizes separators in the package name to dashes anyway. The leading v and the underscores should be enough to make the version number acceptable

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@webology @samwillis @pyscript_dev @nedbat A while ago I hacked together something related, minus the version specification (also inspired by twitter): https://t.co/qUFMeyNYK0

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@haxor That's why I like pytest's tmp_path fixture. Given that you can use pytest and don't have issues with the fixture mechanism or pathlib's path objects, you often don't need any of those imports

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@willmcgugan TFW you think the world agrees with you just to realize that you were the first to answer because you are such a snek Twitter addict

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@HeyChelseaTroy The "what makes this song great" episode by Rick Beato on YouTube has really helped me learn appreciate this song, its incredible production and the perfect guitar solo

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@HenrySchreiner3 @cs01_software I didn't want to actually suggest a name change, but just make a cheap (half)joke. As a C++ developer where I must, Python developer where I can I'm really excited about your past, present and future work, under whatever name it may be

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@cs01_software @HenrySchreiner3 Just guessing, but it could have been more difficult to secure funding for "cmake-build" 😁

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@brianokken Sometimes I write that tiny program directly as a test (with pytest of course) - I write a test that makes assertions not about my own code, but about the library's code

[Marco Weber @comabrewer]

@brettsky Wait, you can just add a .gitignore *inside* the folder to be ignored so you don't have to commit anything? Why have I never thought of this
