Now that PEP 646 has been accepted: https://t.co/TBvo60l0LN We will get to attach semantic meaning to an array's axes in the type signature! For example:

It's high planning season, which means it's again time to decide how the hell we measure data teams' impact. While this has always been a source of handwringing for data leaders, this year I've got two categories of metrics that I not only like--I'm actually planning to use them

Whatever you end up doing, remember that problem-solving in general, and programming in particular, are supposed to be fun.

Know that any external validation has a big portion of randomness.

When you feel discouraged, remember what you are all about. All the local disturbances seem petty when you zoom out.

Don’t sacrifice the present for the future.

One day you will end up where you want to be. Until then, just enjoy it.

Overheard a hilarious convo today.

Sparky: Hey, Rocket! Do you know what TF's eager execution is?

Rocket: I sure do! It makes you eager to ditch TensorFlow and switch to PyTorch.

🤣🤣🤣

Excited to see extended pattern matching coming to #python 3.10 via the new `match / case` keywords😄.

Enums are a perennial favourite of mine but enums in Python have been a sad story. Not anymore. Now you can avoid long if-else chains and instead just use `match`.

- You have a bit of OCD when encountering anything that looks like magic (e.g. the magic async / await keywords) and can't sleep at night until you've unraveled the mystery to it all (well, sorta) 🧙‍♂️

P.S. Would love to contribute this humble post to @ThisWeekInRust 🙏

Hot off the press! 🔥🗞

A new post on Async Rust, starring Futures, Tasks, Wakers, Oh My! Features not one, but *two* executable playgrounds so you can run and mess with all of the code snippets yourself.

- You (like me) have no experience whatsoever with aysnc / await and would just like to kindly know what all the fuss is about 🤷‍♂️

- You (like me) are a huge fan of rust and are looking to up your rust game just a tad 💪

Wow. And I mean Wow🤯

Alright folks, gather round and let me tell you the story of (almost) the biggest engineering disaster I’ve ever had the misfortune of being involved in. It’s a tale of politics, architecture and the sunk cost fallacy [I’m drinking an Aberlour Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch]

@HamelHusain @arfon This. 💯

@jeremyphoward i’ve always wondered how network protocols and web servers really work! now i can find out 🙃. thnx for sharing!

[Matt Sarmiento @msarmi9]

@mediumnok @amaarora great question! tough one to answer. the book is geared more to SWE and uses a the example of building an e-commerce site throughout.

my biggest takeway was learning to clearly separate business and orchestration logic into domain & service layers, which i keep in mind daily

These brilliant nuggets never fail to light up my day 🥳. They’re short and they pack a punch! 🥊

This has to be one of the *best* posts on the importance of MLOps I’ve ever come across. Highly recommend!

As someone who perennially struggles to be satisfied with the quality of the work they product, I echo this sentiment.

Don’t quit. What matters is the progress you make in the long run.

[Logan Yang @logancyang]

The toughest thing about starting out as a creator is that you may get discouraged by the quality of your work for a long time, whether it's writing, making videos, making music, or building a product. This is because you already have great taste.
