I really can’t even begin to properly explain this because it’s just so many layers of intuition. No, you absolutely cannot have a line break in your name. That’s not a letter. That said, I’m fully prepared for someone to give me an example of some writing system that uses line breaks for unique purposes apart from spaces.
Mc’Dole is what they said, not McDo’le.
By mathy I mean related to math

Every time I’m doing anything with Python I ask myself if Java’s tooling is this complicated or I’m just used to it by now. I think a big part of the weirdness is that a lot of Python tooling is tied to the Python installation whereas in Java things like Maven and Gradle are separate. In addition, I think dependencies you install get tied to that Python installation, while in Java they just are in a cache for Maven/Gradle. And in the horrible scenario where you need to use different versions of Maven/Gradle (one place I was at specifically needed Maven 3.0.3 for one project and a different for a different, don’t ask, it’s dumb and their own fault for setting it up that way) at least they still have one common cache for everything.
I guess it also helps that with Java you (often) don’t need platform specific jar files. But Python is often used as an easy and dynamic scripting interface over more performant, native code. So you don’t really run into things like “this artifact doesn’t have a 64 bit arm version for python 2” often with Java. But that’s not a fault of Python’s tooling, it’s just the reality of how it’s used.
Isn’t conda specifically for mathy things?
Okay, now give me those steps but what to do if I clone an already existing repo please
No, it’s not just you, Python’s tooling is a mess. It’s not necessarily anyone’s fault, but there are a ton of options and a lot of very similarly named things that accomplish different (but sometimes similar) tasks. (pyenv, venv, and virtualenv come to mind.) As someone who considers themselves between beginner and intermediate proficiency in Python, this is my biggest hurdle right now.
I never said it wasn’t morally reprehensible. Only that it’s less morally reprehensible than something like making weapons.
Yeah, I don’t really get the argument here. As much as it sucks, it’s not nearly as morally reprehensible as something like weapons. If you don’t do it someone else will. It’s not something a handful of devs are gonna make a difference in by boycotting and it isn’t worth being fired over or not accepting a job over.
The pipe is throwing me off because usually I have to do parentheses for that to work…
I’m not talking about what should versus shouldn’t happen.
Philosophically I agree, but legally the reality is different.
Ironically it’s a very human error to miss a username change.
I don’t think free software/open source has ever guaranteed the ability to maintain a specific project. Only the freedom to modify the software. They haven’t been stripped of that core freedom from the GPL which is the closest thing there to what I think you’re talking about.
