@tweakers Haha en ze vervangen het kennelijk ook in tweets

X leidt bezoekers van de homepage van twitter.com voortaan om naar x.com. Dat levert voor sommige Firefox-gebruikers wel problemen op. tweakers.net/nieuws/222068/…

@pe1chl @NOS Misschien had ie gewoon zijn ID bij zich?

@NOS "het gaat om een man", meldt de politie. Hoe weet de politie dat nou? Als er een overleden persoon op straat ligt die het uiterlijk heeft van een man, dan kan het toch nog best zijn dat ie zich als vrouw identificeert en geen man genoemd wil worden??

To learn all about strings, head over to my extensive article on strings: python.land/introduction-t…

Python has some pretty nifty string functions. Here are some examples!

Want to swap two variables? Python makes it incredibly easy thanks to tuple unpacking! a = 5 b = 10 a, b = b, a

With Pyenv, you can start using Python 3.12 right away since they've added it to their list of supported versions as soon as it came out. Learn more about Pyenv here 👇 python.land/virtual-enviro…

💡 Do you know #Python’s any() and all() functions? These are powerful tools for evaluating iterables! any() returns True if at least one element of an iterable is true. all() returns True only if all elements of an iterable are true.

👀 Use Python’s built-in help() function! It's an interactive way to explore documentation and learn more about Python objects and modules in the Python REPL! 📚 Examples: help(str) import os help(os) help(os.path) etc.

🐍 #Python Tip: Want to remove the last letter from a word using slicing? Here's how: word = "Python" new_word = word[:-1] print(new_word) # Outputs 'Pytho' Learn more here: #Reversing_a_string_slicing" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">python.land/introduction-t…

Another notable thing is using a per-interpreter GIL. The GIL ensures there is only one thread running at any time. Because only one thread can run at a time, using multiple processors with threads is impossible right now.

One notable change: you can use the same quotes inside a nested f-string: >>> f"Quotes inside a nested f-string: {"a string"}" 'Quotes inside a nested f-string now: a string' I'm not sure what to think of this yet...

Yesterday, Python 3.12 was released. Many people won't use it for a while since most lag behind a few versions for various reasons. Nevertheless, you can check out what's new in this post: docs.python.org/3.12/whatsnew/…

🔄 Python’s itertools module is a collection of fast, memory-efficient tools that are useful for working with iterators (e.g., loops). Explore more: #Python" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.python.org/3/library/iter… #Itertools #Coding #Developer

TIL about math.isclose() to compare floating-point numbers in #Python I already knew about pytest's approx() which is similar, but turns out the Standard Library has you covered once more: x = 0.1 + 0.2 print(x == 0.3) # False 😱 # need a small tolerance import math print(math.isclose(x, 0.3)) # True So math.isclose() checks whether two numbers are close enough to each other, within a given tolerance, avoiding the pitfalls of floating-point comparison. #tips #pythonprogramming

@xcraftsdesign That's a really good one, thanks! Super handy to toggle quickly because you don't want to see all the hidden Mac files all the time.

@erikyan #macOSTricks By default, macOS hides (pardon the redundancy) hidden files. This might be especially frustrating for developers working with files such as .git, .gitignore, etc. Pressing Command + Shift + Period (⌘ ⇧ .) you can toggle hidden files on and off.

After a few years of using Windows + Linux (dual boot), I returned to MacOS (Macbook Pro). Do you have any tips, tricks, or cool software I need to know about as a software developer?
