What's your favourite vanilla Python feature? (Abuses of the Python syntax are valid answers.)

Je repense surtout aux notes de service qu'il laissait a son staff purée.

@bock_orphan2 @evisdrenova Do you realize that convincing someone to do something is usually more efficient than forcing him to do so? Even works with kids...

@evisdrenova Do you realize that when you pay someone you can force him to do things?

When I ran my startup, we hired a guy who insisted on using nix, a random linux distro and his own custom tooling. He was the most unproductive person I have ever worked with. He spent more time trying to get Zoom working on his Linux distro than he did writing code.

J’entends beaucoup de moqueries mais j’habite à Nom Ville depuis maintenant 12 ans et c’est un endroit charmant, comme le rappelle la devise de la ville : « Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet ! »

Et le pire c'est que les vestiaires sont trop petits pour contenir tous les points encaissés. Il va falloir laisser les valises dans le couloir.

Cultivons les différences, et non l'indifférence 👌

@TBNewsFr L a personne née la plus ancienne jamais filmée ce n'est pas le pape Léon XIII mais Michel Drucker, il faut revoir vos informations🥱

If you let AI do this for you, then it just sounds like youre an asshole who doesnt honor your participants enough to sit with their data. Or who doesnt value the field enough to read expansively in it. I actually want folks to read my work, so I reciprocate and read theirs. 4/5

Unpopular opinion: Excel is just the sum of everything that can wrong when manipulating data. Confuse data and processing, lines and columns with different semantic on the same table. That's a draft tool for consenting adults, not one to learn how to structure data processing 👎

Building on the previous visual, this static view of pre-processed AIS tanker data (27–28 Feb) exposes where interference is most aggressive. An eye-opener for the navigational complexity it introduces in the Strait of Hormuz. #AIS #StraitOfHormuz #DataViz

120 ans qu’on partage la même table. Le 14 Mars, le couvert est de nouveau dressé. 🍽️    
120 years at the same table. On March 14, we’re back at it.

This story is actually insane: • dude drops $2000 on a DJI robot vacuum like a lunatic • refuses to use the normal app like a peasant • Sammy Azdoufal fires up Claude to crack the API so he can drive it with an xbox controller • Claude delivers the goods • pulls an auth token from their servers, connects successfully • except the system thinks he controls 7000 vacuums • checks again • yep, seven thousand • DJI built authentication with zero device ownership verification • any valid token works for any unit on the planet • Sammy now has eyes inside homes across 24 countries • live vacuum camera feeds everywhere • full floor plans from the mapping data • some guy in germany eating cereal at 3am, unaware his roomba is snitching • one API call away from being the most informed burglar in history • all he wanted was to steer his vacuum with a joystick • does the right thing and reports it • DJI fixes it in two days • back to normal life with his stupidly expensive floor cleaner • IoT companies stay undefeated at shipping garbage security

@Kianshane666 He checked whether it was a penalty try

The fact that brace binned lynagh and then went to check the “knock on” made it hard for the call to be reversed anyway ! Shithosuery #FRAvITA

@CaptSpringbok And then it's France 🇫🇷 who didn't get over the 2023 QF HF and F bullshit hahaha Let's just turn the page, both teams moved on , South Africa 🇿🇦 is way ahead, I just hope we are less destroyed next time, and most of all that the game is exciting. Both +1 and -1 would make my day

That 2022 loss was BS! I was in the stadium. Blatant cheating seemed to be going on. The stadium screens never worked when there were French infringements, but anything SA did had a thousand camera angles in ultra HD with microscopic zoom. Then at the end they crawled over the tryline and the stadium comms stopped working, so Wayne Barnes just awarded the try. A shambles!

@gazzamc71 @thepaulwilliams You mean wait Galthie sends his "bomb squad"?

@thepaulwilliams They do but Ireland showed the other teams how to play France in that second half

Ireland desperately need some gas in that backline.

@_Alkiro_ @thepaulwilliams Et Doudou!

@thepaulwilliams LBB, Moefana, Depoortere, Attisogbe, Ramos. With Gourgues and Serin on the bench. We will be there

Dupont and Jalibert. Nothing more to add.

ironically, this is the most common word order around the world, by a smidgen SOV (Subject-Object-Verb, "The farmer the duck killed", e.g. Hindi, Japanese, Turkish) is slightly more common (41%) than SVO ("The farmer killed the duck", e.g. Mandarin, English, Vietnamese) (35%) VSO (Classical Arabic, Tagalog, Welsh) is uncommon but not rare (7%) VOS (Malagasy, most Mayan languages inc. Q’eqchi’, Classical, and Yucatec, Ojibwe) is quite rare but still reasonably-widely spread geographically (2%) OSV & OVS are *exceedingly* rare, only generally found deep in the Amazon and a few one-off languages in random places around the world (note: this is in reference to *default* word order. in many languages, especially highly inflected ones, word order can be free but there's still a fallback, unmarked order)

@OliSsay @aircommunityFR @tony_vido @embraer @KLM L'aménagement cityhopper est royal mais ce qu'ils ont fait chez hop pour gratter 4 sièges de plus (en même temps qu'ils ajoutent starlink) est vraiment naze/trop serré; même les PNC ont honte et m'ont poussé à faire une réclamation...

@aircommunityFR @tony_vido @embraer @KLM Vraiment pas top niveau confort ces avions. Les sièges sont vraiment basiques comparé à l’A220

🚨Air France-HOP s’apprête à recevoir 2 nouveaux @Embraer 190 ✈️ Immatriculés F-HBQD (ex PH-EZV) et F-HBQE (ex PH-EZW), ils viennent de rejoindre la flotte après avoir passé quelques années chez @klm Cityhopper.
