pipenv is like npm for python and Pipfile works similar to package.json. There's even a Pipfile.lock

when you want to run a command 'inside' the pipenv of the current directory, do:

    > pipenv run {command}

This mirrors how npm works.

There's also:

    > pipenv shell

to give you a shell in which the environment is setup correctly for you

My issue with 3D Touch is that there doesn't appear to be any language for when you can use it or what it will do if you can.

90% of the time, I forget it's there.

A specific case of where it was a problem for me is that tapping the lockscreen icon for the flashlight does nothing. I thought it was broken for a week till I accidentally discovered that you had to force push it.

I have shared the Monty Hall problem with people many times, and have always made explicit that the host knows which door the prize is behind and thus always intentionally choses a 'losing' door.

It has not yet stopped anyone I have tried it with from making the error that it doesn't matter whether they stick or twist.

Apple doesn't need to change mathematical facts, they just don't let you publish on their AppStore.

Could you share any links that show "There have been explicit attempts to apply pain to Python 2.7 users"?

I don't think you are lying, but it seems extraordinary to me, so I'm interested in seeing some context and I'm not sure how to find it.

First, my post said 'essentially meaningless', which is to say 'possibly not completely, but for the most part, meaningless'.

Second, the context here is whether or not the type system of a language is strong or it is weak.

I stand by my assertion that describing type systems as strong or weak typing is essentially meaningless. It's so far from descriptive that all 'strongly typed' ever really means is 'I like this feature' and 'weakly typed' means 'I do not like this feature'.

There are alternative, accurate ways of talking about what people think they are trying to get at when they use the terms strong and weak in relation to languages. They should be used instead.

If you go to the great*5 grandparent of this post, you asked for the statement "I find Guantanamo morally indefensible" to be defended.

You were the one, in that very post, who started confusing morality with law, leading to the jumble of responses since.

Strong vs weak is essentially meaningless.

There is no generally agreed upon definition of what the distinction means.

No claim was made about the motivation for the creation of Sunday trading laws.

I have always assumed that that statement was supposed to directly contrast with TIMTOWTDI.
