PyGithub has existed for ages, even if it is not official. GitHub only maintains octokit for JS, Ruby, .NET, and Terraform.

From the article

  “Most of the time in a wedding gallery of 1,000 photos there are only 1 to 3 images that are blurred,” explains Haanstad. “Also, anytime I do a blurry photo I have the couple do the same thing but in focus so the couple has both images and is not missing out on a moment from their wedding day.”

Absolutely yes. I would be pretty happy to work 20 hours a week to essentially be a consultant and advisor to a team.

The software was not named in the article, as it has yet to be patched.

  Colombo provided screenshots and other documents detailing his findings and
  identifying the maker of the affected third-party software, but he asked 
  that Bloomberg not publish specifics because the flaws hadn’t yet been fixed.

I hope they correct the Steam regional pricing for Forspoken... $70 is ZAR1,118.53 (R15.98:$1) yet the Steam SA pricing is R1,429 (±R20:$1, or effectively a $90 game). Definitely not going to buy something so ludicrously priced.

I'm in South Africa, paying ±$73/month for 100Mbps synchronous uncapped (but with a FUP [Fair Usage Policy]). I would love to double my speed and third my costs :(

You can arbitrarily amend the date in git

  git commit --amend --date="Thu Jan 1 08:00 1970 +0000"

I like this, it suits my needs.

I noticed that VOO (Vanguard S&P 500 ETF) has a -10.56% dividend percentage listed (although it is the YTD performance) which causes the expected annual dividend to go negative. The yield is currently listed at 1.98% on Yahoo Finance.

Yes, the betas get updated along the way, and you'll end up with the final print version when it's done.

You shouldn't be using `#!/bin/bash` but rather `#!/usr/bin/env bash` instead.

Empirically speaking 4/4/9 calories per gram of carb/protein/fat. So generally speaking no, 1lb != 3,000 calories.
