I thought that you had a lot of effects for only 1 month ^^ Maybe “speedrun” wasn’t the most appropriate

Wow, you are speedrunning your transition, damn! Good for you!

I am considering sending the gender dysphoria bible to my parents. But I fear that my mom will read only one part and then attack me with it because that particular part does not apply to me…

I dislike treating None as an equivalent for the empy list, but that does not further the discussion…

I hurt myself in confusion while reading the second quote. Is it the right quote? (also, nazi (relating to the nsdap) is probably not the right word, did you mean fascist?)

I agree. So if None is a valid input we should check it first, and then check if the length is zero. In this situation, we see a type error only if the programmer screwed up and everything is explicit

I don’t really understand the point about exceptions. Yeah “not foo” cannot throw an exception. But the program should crash if an invalid input is provided. If the function expects an optional[list] it should be provided with either a list or None, nothing else.

Passing None to a function expecting a list is the error…

Well, in your case it is not clear whether you intended to branch in the variable foo being None, or on the list being empty which is semantically very different…

Thats why it’s better to explicitly express whether you want an empty collection (len = 0) or a None value.

I really dislike using boolean operators on anything that is not a boolean. I recently made an esception to my rule and got punished… Yeah it is skill issue on my part that I tried to check that a variable equal to 0 was not None using “if variable…”. But many programming rules are there to avoid bugs caused by this kind of inattention.

Lol, is he the one who just got 3 years in prison in switzerland?

If not, it’s enough to land you three years in prison in switzerland

Yeah, the fact that Putin is not really pushing for a ceasefire means that they are not as out-of-stock as the headline suggests…

Please tarrif those american trucks! please please please!

Ok I wanted to confirm ^^ I’m not crazy it really is girl stink

What is girl stink?

Are there really esperato speakers in the wild (not just Duolingo?) It would be a fun language to learn, but if no one speaks i’d rather just get better at german :)

This is so terrifyingly close to what we see in the US… Is this an accurate representation of the historical facts? Is this really not historical manipulation to sound like what is happening today? I cannot discern truth from lies here :'(

I have my anti-confirmation-bias-bias activating strong while reading this article

edit: raising suspicion is that I could not find evidence that nazis used “draining the swamp” refering to the parliament

Lmao, that person mocks people who stay on instagram on a subreddit that was made for people who wouldn’t quit reddit after backlash…

I can follow you around and make sure that your beer, bread, wine, meat and sausages are edible… To ensure you don’t get food poisoning ofc!

Fun that this is brought up at this time. Just a few days ago I tried to program the programable thermostat of my grandma. I am convinced that the thing has a bug making it impossible to select a schedule… It has a lot of buttons and a screen, but due to a minuscule mistake in the interface it’s no better than a temperature slider…

Does a microkernel matter for anyone but nerds? Maybe companies that make variants of the OS?
