If you want to do web requests/ use API’s, use ‘requests’

graphs/reporting, I’ve used ‘bokeh’ before, it was nice.

I’ve never used PyDroid, so I’m not sure how you’d install things, but these are both available via pypi, python’s package repository.

There’s an earlier bit that complements that nicely:

“it turns out that the core competency of smiling and promising people things that you can’t actually deliver is highly transferable.”

Yeah, never said it was, just that if you really want to emulate that style you mostly can.

x = foo(y:=bar(), baz(), y) or z should work assuming foo bar and baz are functions being called?

if this is setting y to the effect of bar() + running baz after, then:

x = [bar(), baz()][0] or z

might work

and if you need y to be defined for later use:

x = [(y:=bar()), baz()][0] or z

but thats from memory, not sure if that will even run as written.

if I get to a real computer I'll try that with an actual if statement instead of a bastardized ternary.

“a = x if foo else y” is a perfectly cromulent statement!

Ok, well, if you ever come across a test framework named AuTest, you can blame me, because I’m stealing the shit out of that.

iPython makes experimenting in an interactive manner so easy, I use it every day.

Up until now most people hated when shit randomly popped up while they were typing.

The Apple went and made the iPhone and now we have a whole generation that expects it.

Have you considered writing your own projects that you have to hide from your employers, and be careful with whom you discuss, so as to avoid the legal complications of the company owning your work?

Exactly! You actually CAN have 50 people finish something 50x faster, but it takes a shitload of planning, and that equals time and money no company I have ever worked for, or even known of, would allocate to something that isn’t generating immediate income.

Take the Hoover Dam for example: Dsigned over 3 ish years and built in 5, at a time when nothing that huge had ever been made before, at less than a billion in today money, and 2 years ahead of schedule. It’s 90 years old.

so far

I’m gonna need a bell curve hooded figure meme template of this comment, this is comedy gold.

Yes, you need to push back on those people. They’re the type that get high on code golf and end up writing unmaintainable one-liners measured in kilobytes for fun.

JavaScript: :wide eyed and smiling: Sure why not! You’re the boss!

Python: Sighing and downing half a bottle of Advil: Sure. Why not, you’re the boss.

Time is an illusion, lunch time doubly so.

that’s amazing.
