I believe it! One glimpse at the latest docs tells me that every major builtin library I knew is depreciated or gone. I’m not even sure if secrets is still the correct encryption library. Honestly I might have to start fresh with Python like it’s a new language

Well the last version I was actively using was 3.6 and the shiniest new feature I remember is switch cases from 3.7, so yes it has for me

Would you recommend it? I’ve seen the wrath of khan, it was alright but tos just can’t hold my attention like tng

It’s even happened to me with python. I stepped away from programming for a while and now all the guides are about 3.8 while the version on trixie is 3.13

Dynamic stacks are pretty common in the most popular scripting languages, but considered bad practice from folks who use systems languages

Thankfully a lot of workers have it in their union contract, so it’s not going away entirely

Lol I totally made it up on the spot. My thought process being:

• It at least has to not taste awful
• Vermouth is a fortified wine and vodka is a common fortifier
• Screenshots are digital images of digital imagery

Sweet vermouth and vodka. Chilled and neat

Edit: Screenshot JPEG version - add crushed ice

Play games and pretend to make mental notes for that game you want to make

It works as intended because you haven’t integrated yet

It’s ok for symbols to have different meanings in different contexts. If someone is new to the context, they should research or ask about it. People that are familiar should provide the mutual understanding, provided they have the will and ability to educate.

The US has the WARN Act, which requires 60 days’ notice or 60 days’ pay if at least 500 employees or 33% of the workplace are getting laid off (whichever is smaller). It’s a threadbare legal minimum on severance, but there is a minimum.

Don’t wait for a layoff, start organizing a union for that juicy ‘represented’ employment status (as opposed to at-will). Unions can’t stop layoffs, but they can minimize the impact, negotiate a higher severance, and provide advanced notice. I highly recommend the good folks at CODE-CWA, they specialize in organizing tech workers

And what was the outcome of this IP theft? A video mocking a multi billion dollar corporation? They took down the specific product called out, but they still make extremely similar dslr bags to peak Design and they’re definitely still copying other companies designs. This is my point. IP laws only benefit the billionaire class and fuck over everyone else.

You’re saying that like it isn’t already rampant. IP laws are a textbook example of classist disenfranchisement. It’s a rule for which the capitalists are protected and not bound by, but which workers are bound by and do not receive those protections.

I work for a game company, the only reason I would tell you not to use a pirated version is because it probably isn’t cracked properly and will throw client-server errors. You’ll want to crack it in a way that will still receive the playlist updates

I use the app opentask. Based on your criteria, it’s exactly what you’re looking for. It’s all stored locally on your phone, it has the ability to set recurring tasks, and you can create categories of preset and custom tasks. Deadlines can be set as far into the future as you need, down to the minute. It’s available on F-Droid.

I love this idea, the back button on browsers feels like it exists because of webrings

A title is just something a company calls a particular job. A role is what that job actually is. So a lot of jobs might be called “QA engineer”, but not fitting the intended role

I’m thinking of it not as a title, but a role. Often times the 2 are not related
