List comprehensions return a new list. For the sake of code clarity, you probably shouldn’t change a second list from within a list comprehension. If you’re trying to concatenate two lists, you can do so in a second line:
a = list(range(10))
b = [ value for value in range(5) ]
a.extend(b)
# a has 15 elements
print(a)
These things can just be unique fields. I think the takeaway here is exactly to not use these unique fields as database keys if you have the option / if it’s up to you.
I received an email about this one year ago from one of the universities technicians/systems maintainer to let them know if we were running non-openjdk java runtimes because they received a million-dollar “warning” email. Greedy corps are even going after universities.
if your tractor can’t run farming simulator, is it even a tractor?
yeah, who knows - some people might rather waste time fighting a language model than actually learning things…
it’s too early for something like this imo, but maybe in a few years it serves a purpose
Doing that with GNU or WINE will use your entire memory
I’m writing a web app on Python + HTMX. Little to none javascript involved.
If it’s something simple you can check out FastAPI. For more complicated projects involving data models and relationships, check out Django.
IMO if you’re even slightly concerned about storage you should be using a DBMS instead of JSON files. They will handle sparse data, compression, and fast access better than a text-based file format.
If you don’t know Python, you’ll just waste time on this back and forth with the LLM. You can still use an LLM to answer your questions about the language, just don’t expect the generated code will run without you understanding it first.
it does, well at least associative arrays
I guess partly because the Python tooling catastrophe makes it a quite a pain to set them up.
Salty huh
Saying you need to set up type hinting in Python shows that you’re the one assuming it’s a hassle like TS, where you need a different runtime to have access to something the language (JS) should have provided from the start.
Everything you need is provided by typing, which is included in a Python install. Just import it and start using it.
with no support for associative arrays (dicts / hashmaps) or custom data structs this looks very limited to me
what browser are you using? It renders just fine on mobile and desktop to me
of course nods along
Overall JavaScript (with Typescript anyway, which you can learn later) is a better language than Python.
🤣🤣🤣
good one
my favorite JS framework is HTMX for making me write less JS or even none at all.
I read it as “monads, closures, and other functional concepts are mathematical (denotational) concepts that can be proven memory-safe, while ‘functions’ (operational, as in C) are not”.
I’m not convinced whether this operational/denotational distinction would even be useful in practice. Operational semantics are part of a formal proof using logical statements rather than math objects, so the statement above wouldn’t even make sense.
I don’t think so. A half-measure using docstrings would likely take more processing power and require an ad-hoc implementation because comments are not broken down into ast components afaik. It would also be more costly in the long run if they decide to convert it into a proper syntax, as a result of docstrings not having a single standard way of being written.
Python has introduced several syntactic changes for type annotations, this is not unreasonable.
ok, then write a module. I’m not sure what’s being asked. The best way is what works well for you.
