So I named my daughter "io"
everyone calls her by the name and then we register her on our local gov't to get birth certificate.
AND THEN THESE FUCKED FACED FUCKERS! dont accept my daughter's name because of this STUPID SYSTEM OF THEIRS!
because "io" is too short for first name field to accept. Its like the devs become the law and just set their own limit.
It pisses me off. our law didn't say `len(firstName) > 2` and we can't use paper anymore as alternative.
I really want to punch the fucker in neck. sorry40 -

When you see a Java devotee using Python and they're doing something like this:
array = [1, 2, 3, 4]
for n in range(0,len(array)):
print(array[n])
At least I get to tell them "hey it doesn't have to be so hard just do it like this:"
array = [1, 2, 3, 4]
for n in array:
print(n)12 -

I've got a HDD, gotta look for any data left on it. I don't need a 1:1 copy of the drive to determine if any data is even there still, and i'm also strapped for space, so I threw together a little 20-line or so Python script to skip over large amounts of empty space so I only have to sift through what little it finds to see if anything's left at all. I wrote it, ran it... and it took a while. Too long. My SSD was floored and RAM was full for no reason. I double-checked my code...
device.seek(0)
device_size = len(device.read())
If you don't get it, this would've tried to load the ENTIRE DRIVE'S CONTENTS into RAM before giving the length. The drive's 128GB or so. That's not happening.
I'm a fucking idiot.
EDIT:
This is what this was for. This ain't ext4. What in the fuck...?11 -
Anybody loves python? I don't know why, but the more I use python, the more I seem to hate it. Specially the poor naming of the functions are just horrible! specially when you've been following the #CleanCodePrinciple strictly.
Let me give some example:
What does even "len" or "str" mean normally? is it a variable or a function? can anybody imagine?
where as in Java or JavaScript it is array.length and anyValue.toString()
anybody can understand what these things are, whether a variable or a function.
in python some functions are like "dothisorthat" and some are "do_this_or_that" some are "doThisOrThat". I mean, why can't you just follow an unified rule?
and there's this fragmentation between python 2 and 3! whether in stackoverflow or in youtube/udemy, a lot of them used python 2 and some uses python 3. I mean, can't they have some BackworkSupports?18 -

Okay so I've been programming for around a few months learning python. I'm a slow learner so I try to stick with a learning schedule that suits me and i do got it, but I've come across a problem that keeps happening.
When will I know when to use certain functions like len(), range(), Or even modulas %. Because I forget they're there and im worried its going to effect me from being better.
Another problem while I have some of your attention is i dont know when to use math in my code really well but I've been getting better at that so I'm gonna practice a little bit for that.3 -
back into some quick and dirty opencv scripting for the afternoon to try to get a report out the door, and boyhave my variable names become, shall we say, gigidy inspiring:
longexposure = np.uint8(cumimage/float(len(ims)))
stacked = np.hstack({cumimage, longexposure}) -
usefull=accomplishmentsInLifeToday
thingsDoneToday=list()
minutesInDay=1440
minutesRemaining=countdown(minutes)
void endOfTheDay:
if len(thingsDoneToday) > 0:
print("What a productive day huh?!")
else:
print("You lazy caffeine maniac... Get up and code!")
while minutesRemaining != 0:
if usefull.done():
thingsDoneToday.append(usefull)
else: continue
endOfTheDay()
Prints: You lazy caffeine maniac... Get up and code!
