aw man, this is the first i'm hearing about discontinuation. apparently it's because people want larger phones?!
i have a 5 IV and it is by far the largest phone i've ever owned... i wish it was like an inch smaller. but it was the only model i could find that doesn't have a non-rectangular screen. these bloody camera cutouts are everywhere and i never even use the front camera.
was gonna say, this seems like the best outcome for this particular trial. there was potential for fair use to be compromised, and for piracy to be legal if you're a large corporation. instead, they upheld that you can do what you want with things you have paid for.
me and a few friends have a dumb chatbot we've been fiddling with for 15 years. started out on irc, moved platforms multiple times, and i'm currently porting it to matrix. it can do poetry, markov chains, tell you when the weekend starts, pull youtube videos, create email aliases, etc.
i think we're talking about different things. you use enforce to mean "validate", i used it to mean "coerce". one of the cases was a command line argument parser that consisted of a single decorator, so you could write
and call it with $ myfile.py foo --bar 3 --baz 2.2 and it would print 13.4
another was about creating working protocol buffers from an excel sheet, nested types and enums and oneofs and everything. we used it to parameterize tests of our bluetooth protocol.
engineer: we have had an experienced technical writer on the team for a year and involved them in every user-facing process, we did six rounds of A/B testing for all documentation and operation, and we've produced a manual which basically qualifies for a pullitzer.
later...
it's brokenis it showing an error?idk it's just brokenwhat did you do?nothing! it just brokehow did it break?we needed it to go faster so we connected it to the 480V line and then it just brokeit's a 12V device...yeah it's an even multiple right?
i mean, i'm all for rejiggering the internals. i've personally written at least two libraries that uses type annotations in reverse to force arguments into the correct type, and i feel like that should probably be a separate mechanism to "just call the annotation"
the problem is that the language doesn't and can't support one single way to use type annotations without changing fundamental functionality. you can absolutely hook up mypy to your editor for newbies, but once you get on the intermediate level, fighting with mypy takes more code than actually solving the problem.
also there was that proposed update to mypy that was put on held when it turned out that the maintainers didn't know how annotations are used in the wild.
...you just unlocked something it my brain. if it's the video i'm thinking of, the costumes were all this shit-brown color of latex paint that wrinkled uncomfortably as people mowed in them. like, full-body pterodactyl costumes with dick holes.
i only ever saw that one arc as well, what has apparently later been dubbed "season zero" because there wasn't any card games in it. that was something they apparently came up with on the fly and it just stuck around. the writers didn't know anything about tcgs so the rules make no sense.
that first season is wild though, with the protagonist just challenging bad people to random games of chance with gruesome outcomes like "because you are greedy, i challenge you to stab through this wad of cash lying on top of your hand. you get to keep every dollar you pick up but if you're too greedy you'll nail your hand to the table"
