And := not being = can really matter for variable shadowing.

Absolutely insane syntax choice in a language where everything returns 2 values. At least do var:, err: =

> What's great about this country is America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good.

Then you need a lawsuit to determine whether the law is “constitutional”.

The main value I get from sqlalchemy is parsing the result into useful structures. Getting the two models out of a join, prefetching related objects, etc. Though I much prefer rust diesel’s approach of no lazy queries (prefetches returned as list[tuple[object, list[related_object]], though diesel had other issues for me). My policy with sqlachemy is to unwrap all results to that if I’m passing/returning them. No relationship access outside of the function making the query.

I was taught that’s old American from before knives were cheap. Originally you’d pass the knife.

Steam OS might get a boost soon with their new hardware.

I’ve thought about making a Venmo for betting.

Start a betting pool with a group of friends. Use an exchange (not sports book) internal to the group, so no external money needed. No commission.

It’s no fun realizing you and your friends have taken opposite bets and are just handing money to the house. Keep that money in your social group and make some friendly bets without worrying about the entire group being taken to the cleaners. The group leaves the Super Bowl party, horse races, etc with just as much money as went in (minus tickets, food/drink, etc).

I guess a more accessible version would be toast… what do you put in a toaster?

Bombe is great. You might like the zactronics games. And there are tons of factory games now if you want factorio with different window dressing.

Huh. Just checked kagi and it’s the same. At least you can block sites manually.
