Me greeting a female friend with a joke: Hey baby, wanna play with my python?
Her: Only if it's well commented and production ready.
Me: I love you.
Her: I know.

Costumer: I found a 40 line python script on Stackoverflow to do that.

Dev team: ok, now... how many lines you think we will need to put the python interpreter, libraries and your 40 line script inside an Android and iOS apps with legacy code?

I delivered a small C# program long time ago.
Unit tests, integrations tests, functional tests, all passing (users even happy).

Colleague of mine approached me.

C: "I finally fixed the program"
M: "Which program?"
C: "Product X"
M: "What was wrong with it?"
C: "Nothing, but now it runs on Python"
M: "..."
C: "Yeah, we lost a few features, but it's Python!"
M: "Aren't you busy with other things?"
C: "That can wait"
M: "..."
M: "..."

Them: You're a Python developer? So you work with snakes?

Me: ...

Learned Python by working 6 year with it. The first tool I made in my spare time was a porn playback helper.

!Rant
my dad message me 7 am, with spec on a raspberry he got and the question if python was similar to C (he programmed C, 20 years or so ago.)

my responde: "I will set up a git for you, and we can learn python together"
dad: "what is a git?"

p.s love my dad :D

Hey! I just joined and am currently learning python. My boyfriend @macleod is obsessed with this place and said i should join so hi!

I love python, its the language I never really struggled a lot with yet also progressing so fast with it as a programmer!

One of our GOVERNMENT ICT papers had a python code with no indentation at all

Learning Python with Python.

So, my lab mate tried to mansplain to me that Python is faster than C/C++.
It took all my self control not to smack him in the face with a chair.
Using Numba means it's no longer interpreted as Python, so it doesn't count.

I think rather than go clubbing again tonight, I may just stay in and mess around with Linux in an old desktop or play with python a bit...

And have some vodka.

... how was your first encounter with python?
uhmm, well...

Everyone should start with C rather than java/C#/python (or alike). Much easier to move from C to java than the opposite

1. Started to program Python 3
2. Thought of doing a little program just for fun
3. Now 1 1/2 years in developing state with nearly 3000 lines of code and 11 modules
4. Python skills :)

There are two main versions of Python.

When you want to have it work with both of them, things can get really ugly. :(

'React JS functional fun'

A tweet about reactjs, #'d with 'python' and an image of the ruby logo....someone's tired this Friday 😂

*Doesn't have Internet and bored as hell*
*Starts to program something random with Python*
*Wants to write something to a file, doesn't know how*
*Intuition starts...*
"foo = open('test.txt', 'w')

*Runs program*
*It actually fucking worked*
Tell me something more simpler than Python.

My first text editor made in python with tkinter

Literally just saw a job post with this in it:

We are seeking a Python Developer with solid experience working with Object Oriented PHP 5

People always asked me how I got started with Python, I always have to come up with a reason to hide the fact that I started using it because I like the name

What's up with guys and girls using the 'def' word? It's like they're speaking Python.

guy: "sup babe. Wanna grab coffee later?"
girl: "def baby"

My CV shows that I have experience with Java and also python scripting but I keep getting calls about Javascript positions..... Cmon HR you better than that...

Python be like

"Yeah this is the absolute best beginner language to learn programming concepts"

Python also be like

"Yeah well we couldnt implement 70% of programming concepts because the ast is retarded but heres a library for drawing 3d cats with a printer"

Teacher: "Now, how do you write a comment in python"

Student: "With a hashtag"

Uggg

In love with Python

First time ever implementing an Android app from scratch (coming from C++ but also worked with C# and Python): WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT???

Started with planning to develop super Mario Bros. Using python.
Ended up with a music player which can play ogg (and mp3 files with 320 kbps bitrate) .
Why!?

Not gonna lie. Automate the Boring Stuff With Python lives up to the hype.

I've been writing more python than English the last month so now I have to go through my essay and replace all the single quotes with double quotes...

I replaced a python/mysql daily process that takes 25 minutes to run with a perl/redis process that takes 1 minute to run, so it runs multiple times a day. Mgmt asks me to convert it to python/mysql, "...but keep the run time at one minute. That's great!"

No.

In my previous rants I used to shit all over Python.
Now, I am regretting those rants.

After giving up a on "writing Java with Python syntax", and learning to write the pythonic way, it finally clicked for me, and now I really like it!

Why can't Python have a switch case statement???

Also what's with the capitals in True/False?

>Barely ever written python before
>Gets added to a python group project
>Codes the part I'm associated with
>Runs fine after about 19 tries
>Puts it together with other people's code
>Syntax error
>Searches for the error for 2 and a half hours
>tfw other people use 4 spaces instead of a tab like I do and pythong can't handle it :(

I am in love with python

Learning Python after starting with C# is proving difficult...
Where are my brackets and semi-colons?! I feel so unsafe.

Im oficial! After one year of studying python / django I received an acceptance letter today. When I began, I didnt expected it would be so soon.

It's not my first job, but my first one as developer (will be doing stuff with python / django / pandas)

So Im happy...! Which is rare for me

I’ve been programming with other languages than Python for so long that when I finally had to pick up Python to help teach my friend some python I felt like I was rediscovering a past life.

With Python I feel like King Fucking Arthur with the Holy Blade Excalibur, armored up and ready for fucking war.
When I’m writing a script I feel like I’m parrying and piercing my blade straight through that fuckers chest and slam them into the fucking ground. And leave their bleeding out cold dying body on the fucking ground with no hope in their eyes.

Although when an indentation error occurs I feel like I just fucking tripped over a fucking pebble and apparently stairs were nearby and I bash my head on all 1024 steps, get to the bottom to just to get some fucking Java Chad punt my fucking head like a fucking football screaming random reasons to not use python.

I'm gonna make a shitty basic browser with python and I'm gonna love it.

Remember one date where GF and I made a game, with a jumping cat, using python.

:3

Passed my Python programming course with an A!!!! Yes!!!!!!

P.s I want a squishy ball so can 150 of you please like my rant Lmaoo

Python rant

Where the hell is Break key?!

Story: I wrote multithreaded python script and went to Lab to test it. Script got stuck (one thread died) and I needed to stop that thing, but how without magic Ctrl+Break?

Damn you Dell with your slim and minimalistic keyboards!

Some random coworker has been asked to setup tests for the framework written in Java and the GUI is a web app that comes with the framework.

Since he doesn't know any language we work in, he decided he would do it in Python. When I asked him why introduce Python and he replied with "it doesnt matter which language it is because it is going to run on selenium"

I told him to either use Java or Javascript for selenium because when he leaves we should be able to maintain the tests and not first figure out what the hell you wrote in Python

He didnt understand and is going to go with Python anyway

All I Can Say About Java is WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS LANGUAGE?

So i have been working with a so called python expert my manager on a project.
He has 3 years of more experience in python than me.
The best thing is he shows up everyday with random post from stackoverflow to fix our bugs everyday.
And if the code is in python2 he says that only difference is just put () around print and it will work

🤦‍♂️
He earns thrice as much i do

Python does not have ++
Feels so different as I used c c++ and Java!
Just can't write while loops with x++
😭

back when I solved all my problems with python

Trying to find Python documentation for Microsoft's fucking retarded CRM is about as fun as brushing my peehole with a toothbrush. Fuck.

Python developers starts writing his code with indentation and on multiple lines. Javascript developers look at him and writes the entire script in one line. Php developers looks at python and js developer and starts writing $$$$$$$$$$$$$

So after exactly 30 minutes of building a basic interpreter (yes I'm back on the interpreter wagon) in python, I have once again come to the conclusion that python can go fuck itself with its backwards and inconsistent syntax with needlessly over worked and backwards data structures...

Would rather work in fucking COBOL at this stage...

Have been using python for a long time. Can't help roommate with a C project because my brain automatically filters out semicolons!!😢

I mean its not like python had a sane and/or sensible syntax to begin with

As a person who is more comfortable and relatively a bit experienced with Java I find Python quite nice, easy to read and less typing.

It really is a breeze to work with! Clean and intuitive design, loving it!

Probably the most Russian programming language is Python.

Why, I hear you ask?

because every Python app's file is signed with a Russian national suffix... .ru

P.S. that came to my attention just today. After all those years...

Here is way to find the element with maximum frequency in a list in Python:

a = [1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,1]

A teacher thought that I was hacking the school once because I was making something with python on the school computer.

My god... Just started out with Visual Studio learning Visual Basic... Coming from Debian + Vim with C, C++ and Python. How can you even use this thing?!

First I helped her with coding the Newton-Raphson method in Python (she has background in Mechanical Engineering).

Later I introduced her to the Linux world and she was amazed with the system responsiveness.

Now I am helping her with learning C (she is programming to Arduino but some concepts are hard for her because Python was her first language).

We are together for 4 years and going on.

Trying to learn machine learning with zero python background is frustrating as FUCK!

Importing modules in python is the biggest shit i have done in my life. ALWAYS SOMETHING IS NOT FOUND. I have no fuckin clue who came up with this shit. I fuckin hate python for that so so much
EASY LANGUAGE GO TO HELL

!Rant

Having been working with JavaScript so intensively, I have a newfound appreciation for Python. It really is an elegant language.

I'm looking forward to returning to Python one day in the near future.

I don't know how to feel about it. What story it tells? Python is so easy that even vandals use it or maybe someone bleed on the wall how much she/he hates python. Or maybe it is scream of inner Vandal closed in cubicle who works with AI and blockchain for life's. What is the story behind this?

Messing around with lisp. Back to python for a moment. Immediately missed a parenthesis. The irony.

Should i start with Javascript or Python as a first programming language ?

I'm new guy in programming. Sometimes I do compare java with python and I have weird conclusion.

Python code is shorter but for me much more "logical" & easier to read is Java. Maybe it due to fact that I don't understand what is going on under hood so shorter code feels incomplete?

Dear devs,

I’ve been seeing a lot of comments bashing python. I’d like to know the moment when you went “wow fuck this shit” with python.

My biggest gripe is in large ish projects, because of the dynamic typing things are so hard to debug and narrow down. If it had static typing then python would be the best, but then if it had it it wouldn’t be python in the first place I’d venture.

Go!

Ever wanted to have undefined behavior in Python? Do this in Python 2 (yes this was supposed to be a fibonacci number calculator with a limit but one of my classmates forgot the conversion just as seen below):

a,b=b,a+b

I love python, but I hate dealing with python dependencies, especially on Windows.
I was tinkering and researching with neural networks, so I wanted to try out pybrain. I wrote my project, with pybrain installed via pip, and tried to build it.
Oh, what's that? Pybrain doesn't work with python 3? Well I'll download the version that's supposed to. Oh, that version has a deprecated numpy api? Let me just install those other resources. Oh, that requires a broken module that has no publicly available source?
Let's try python 2. Oh, now that's working, I just need to export environment variables for some "bls source". Some quick Google searching and the only solution that would work is building a bunch of cywgin modules by hand. That's fine, I have an ubuntu partition.
An hour later I'm compiling FORTRAN dependencies on Ubuntu.
Coding time: 1 hour
Dependency time: 3 hours

Programming with Python

God, I hate python and its ecosystem with a passion! I feel like because of it being so popular amongst non-programmers 99% of the python code one has to deal with is just plain garbage. Also, fuck your shitload of dependencies who all fail to install!

So I realized:

No matter what terms we replace master/space with, it still implies one is better that the other, or in charge of the other.

This isn't equal! I demand process rights! So I say we make a deeper change! We change the fundamental way concurrency works in python so that all forks are equal! In fact forks are divisive. We should do away with that too.

Make python single threaded again.

Not quite a rant, but looking for opinion/advice.

I have been programming for a little over a year now, excluding those cringy Lua scripting days with if statement hell. I'm pretty far ahead most of the people in my course (1st year Software Engineering), but I'm at this awkward point where I know quite a bit but not enough. All of my projects so far have been small 1-2 source file programs, mostly in javascript although Python is my main hoe. At the moment I'm reading a book on machine learning and I feel like I'm doing fine, not struggling too much with it, but I don't feel confident at all in my abilities. I had two programming internship interviews half a year ago, both of which I wasn't accepted in. I've been thinking of contributing to an open source project lately to get some "real world" experience but I can't find a good project to start with and just don't feel like I'm good enough. There are also a lot of small things I come across such as async and coroutines in Python which I'm not familiar with yet and they make my confidence drop even lower. I'm guessing most of you have been in a similar position. Would you have any advice for me? Should I search for a project or should I keep on studying with books?

Why people are saying Python is an easy language? I mean yes, if you write c/java code with python it may seem easy, but writing proper python code, in a pythonic way is not so easy.
SO DON'T TELL PEOPLE THAT'S IT EASY LANGUAGE because new commers later they come with absurd code and ask people to fix it.

Just picked this up for my goals this year. If I don't like it, I can always sell it off and I don't like having to switch between screens on my laptop for tutorials. Has anyone used How to Learn Python the Hard Way? Did you like it? Hate it?

fuck off with the “do x in y lines of python code” it’s getting so goddamn annoying. yes python is concise. yes libraries do everything. you don’t need to show off someone else’s work with clickbait.

everything is like

“make a web server in 2 lines of python code”

import http.server
server = http.server.serve()

“mine bitcoin in 2 lines of python code”
import bitcoinminer
bitcoinminer.mine()

“do crazy math with 4 lines of python code”
import complex
import numpy
num1 = 1
num2 = 1
num3 = complex.addVectorMagnitudes(num1, num2)

Guys, a company's HR mailed me for a position that requires strong experience of ">3 years in Python with C or C++".

Does it mean Python and C/C++?
Or do they need someone who is using C/C++ to write Python?

I have some experience with adding Python support to C++ code. Does it count? 😁

Is python a good language for building a RestAPI? Personally I don't have any experience with python yet, but what I've gathered, is that python is great for scripting, and big data.

I have a bit of knowledge about Node.js, and I really like the structure, and it's so easy to make an API using express.js.

I've already read a bunch of articles about it, but I'd like to know what the community feels about the two languages?

working with non programmers - need to make a gigantic excel worksheet for everything that python could do in a dozen lines or two... 😑

I have successfully replaced python as my "i have an idea and i want to get it running fast" language with scala

The f in "python" stands for fast

Sorry but i literally have nothing better to post. Maybe i shouldnt post something from begin with in that case... But idk.

Why is every fucking machine learning tutorial made with fucking python code

Python Question:

I'm learning Python and thought I'd start with web services since that's a concept I'm familiar with. My question is, in the attached code, am I doing it right when it comes to python? Cuz I feel like I'm following the same structure I follow in C# WebAPI and NodeJs

What about naming style? Is is the default for python? cuz I'm also using C# naming style :\

Thanks in advance ranters :)

Dear Java developers who has a fetishes with OOP and Design Patterns, and are now using Python:

Not every fucking thing you build has to be a class, a singleton or a factory. Specially in Python. Go with your boredom and boilerplate elsewhere.

Decided to replace batch with python.

It's like the difference between night and day.

Started dabbling with Python.... I like it.

They call Python, C, Java, Ruby, and stuff like that programming 'LANGUAGES' for a reason. I just wrote a Python dictionary literal in my C# code and was clueless as to why it was failing to compile for five minutes straight. Maybe that was because I was working with Python like 30 minutes ago.
It's like I have to have one 'brain' per one language and need to switch between such 'brains' to write code in another language. And such switches take time.

Image magic with python. I'm never batching anything in Photoshop ever again.

So today I've had the idea of implementing Node.JS in Python because I love Node.JS but sometimes I hate the whole ".JS" part of it. It will be a fantastic learning exercise with TCP sockets and such, and will be good for learning the more intricate parts of Python as well.

Excited for Nodepy!

I have been working with python for a couple of years now and I want to play with a new language. Colleagues suggested C but what would people recommend as the next step?

played a typing game with my friends, hacked it with a small python code that types everything for me and told everyone I'm the champ.

right now i'm in the first place in the world :-)

So I've been self teaching myself Python, which I've loved learning. However I hit a wall. I'm terrible with large project ideas, which has brought everything to a halt.

Being that I loved learning python, I'm thinking of picking up a second language to fill the void & expand my knowledge. I've dabbled a little bit in Java & Haskell. Go looks pretty interesting.

In your opinion what would be a good complementary language to Python?

python is easiest language to learn and begin with.

Student intern here. My boss recently asked me to replace several if-statements with preprocessor macros.

In Python.

And apparently, he didn‘t joke.

Gotta love software engineers. I'm writing some python to generate PDFs, so start by looking at chrome command line, which will be some headache with temp files and other madness.

Then find puppeteer, which does exactly what I want, but requires NodeJS.

Then find the unofficial python port, with a 5 line example of pretty much what I need to do.

It's not such a good way to disconnect from work to hang out with friends, drink too much, and start coding Python in the sand of a park.

how to get high with python ?

I have a confession to make...I am a PHP developer with a Python problem!

I was frustrated with how The programs in my computer (not) worked, so i wanted to change that. I started with Windows batch files and completely drifted off. I told my dad about it and he gave me a book about python. I learned JavaScript somewhere along the way and touch the basic of java. Now I am mainly a python and JavaScript guy.

Python abstract classes... Looks like a pain in the ass...

I'm just gonna create a class filled with methods that just pass or throws NotImplementedException

Good enough?

Which version of Python are people working with these days? Is there enough support for Python 3.x to use that or is it better to stick with Python 2.7.x for the time being?

Trying to code a Chrome extension with Native messaging so that it can communicate with my python script. Just kill me.

Can't even get the example from Google to install correctly.

Getting into trees and graphs in python.. quite frustrating at first ;-; especially with little OO experience..

Guess who got a huge interest in Python this morning. I feel excited to start learning it and do some awesome shit! I need a small break from front end development so I'll try to make some simulators or something with python.. Dunno..

Nothing as painful as working together with a front-end guy who uses spaces for their works and you use Tabs.
I've been battling with Python Indentation error since morning

Seems to me some companies only want people who have read computer science books back to front.

What is the fucking point of asking me a question, to then say it's wrong, and then just repeat what I said but in a way that sounds like it is directly from a book?

Who the fuck cares what the difference between c++ and python are, I don't want to work with python anyway, and the job has nothing to do with python?

#madness

I got exams coming up but all I want to do I get my hands dirty with kotlin, python and learn the java design patterns 😭

Oh crap seems like we will switch our automation from java to python.

Any recomendation to good recources or books to start with python?

I've been meaning to work with the Spotify's Python API 'Spotipy'. Any good suggestions to make anything cool with it? Can include Machine Learning, IOT, etc.

Finished up my first Advent of code today with python 👌

Situation: I have a love hate relationship with python due to the lack of types as I have in more established languages such as C#, Java and shit even TypeScript

Situation (cont): A rather large codebase that i have developed for multiple processes at work run on Python.

I don't hate it, I just don't absolutely love it, there is a lot of things to like about Python, but man I do have some conflicts with it, I have been facing out to use other solutions that feel scripty, such as the newer versions of C# with .net, but I would say that about 80% of our codebase runs on Python, the rest is PHP.

I am somewhat traditional in the way my programs run, I started with C++ and Java, then for whatever reason (I blame codecademy at the time) switched over to Ruby and Javascript, mostly Javascript. I do not remember how I found Python, I do remember learning it with an online tutorial, shit was easy to get started with.

My codebase running on Python is huge, and they do a lot from automation scripts, to data gathering and database management, never had I been bitten with the "oh noes is so slow" bug since my code is not Google level big, for everything else Python seems rather fast imho

I dunno, big time love hate relationship

Calling any Python programmer here (especially package maintainers)

I run Gentoo, so am responsible for maintaining the dependency tree (to a degree). When it comes to Python I have 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 available. I'm always running into some package needing one version or another, and I can't just set a single version and forget it (which is fine. I'm running Gentoo).

I know that this is because python changes rapidly and so different libraries need different versions. Fine.

Why does this happen with Python and not C++, JavaScript, php, ruby, or any other languages on my system? I don't have 3 different versions installed to cover any other languages, and I don't spend time adding installation rules to cover them.

Why does Python need to be a pain in the ass about it?

you know pandas can live together with conda, anaconda and python

First day in introduction to programming. We were the first course to learn Python instead of Java. The whole lecture consisted only of what Python is good for and how powerful it is.
He finished with the statement: “... and in the real life, no one writes applications in Python.“

What's your take on developing web with python (using Django for example)?

Coming from PHP, Symfony , etc, my first impressions are that it's clunky and very backend oriented.

The pain of really wanting to get stuck in with learning python... But having to study instead. *Sigh*

Who among you devs ends up coding with 4 or maybe 5 different languages in one day !!! And by languages I mean C++, Python, JavaScript and Java for Android.

Anaconda. Quite fitting a name to something that fucks up python environments so thoroughly. Ironic too, given that it was meant to simplify. Anaconda doesn't give a shit about the python that came with the distro. And all packages installed with pip are only visible to anacondas python. Not a single note of caution during installation​. Or a best practices guide for the newbie. Just chaos. Utter chaos. The price of being a noob had been paid.

Why people loves Java? It's because the maintenance or something in architectural level? I don't understand, because we have languages like Python with a better syntax and languages like C++ with a better optimization and speed of processing

I know some C++. What should I really learn next Python or Java?
I want to be able to make a meaningful project as soon as possible.(with Java as I can see I have SpigotPlugins, and with Python I have Telegram Bots).
Sorry for asking for advice here but idk what to do.

Coding with python and calling it programming is like printing out pictures and calling it painting.

Anybody have any great tutorials about web scraping with python? The data science courses I took only covered maipulauting and visualizing data not getting it.

Both Rust and Python have JavaScript in their core. They're both just JS with extra steps.

Any other people here that find Python to be actually a harder language than Java? With Java it's much easier to keep track of your code and to track what variables refer to certain object types.

It feels like Python has much more quirks and feels therefore much more inconsistent as a language. Object oriented programming is more verbose with static methods and decorators being vague for example. This makes it harder to grasp concepts like design patterns and SOLID principles in Python imo.

Someone just told me he writes c++ code and wrap it with swig so that he doesn't need to learn Python. Why man, just why!?

Everyones like "python is pseudocode" but honestly i dont see it, after sql, python is the least intuitive syntax i ever worked with, and i frequently use haskell so

I am studying Python..I’m getting frustrated with this…but I can’t let it go..these dudes don’t make it easier to learn.I’d just stick with this pdf

Low key if someone wants to help me with a flask registration form that would be great because it’s kicking my ass.

If you didn’t see my last rant I switched from php to python because I know python and php didn’t like working or doing anything.

I'm looking to learn a thing or two about automating stuff with python. Any cool ideas you guys have that I should implement?

Hey erm, any idea to deal with the programmer who constantly suggests me to use python in everything?

I complain about Java the other day from my frustration on certain thing...(on security), then he keep telling me that "USE PYTHON " which I'm not interested......at the moment...

It is annoying.....

So let me get this straight:

Out of the dozen odd solutions python has been through, virtualenv is now depreciated in favor of venv as of 3.5+? And venv ships standard now?

What happened to simplicity and there being "only one way" of doing things?

I hope python isn't catching a case of js-fever.

Someone was saying the problem with virtualenv was that it doesn't play well with relative path names?

Thought I would spend the sunday configuring Emacs with Python auto-complete. Any suggestions ?

How to start learning machine learning? I am all set with the basics of python.

Books, mostly. Never completed even one though. Started with VB6 a long time ago. Just wanted to create cool stuff. Then moved onto Java. Heck, even did J2ME. **shudders with horror** Now doing Android and Python mostly.

I've worked with a couple of languages but python won my heart at the end
Been using it for 5 years now
But I feel I need to revisit java and c#
But my python conscience whispers:
"Yu want to dump me now... of all the things we've done together"

Ugh this specific python module won't work on heroku with gunicorn and I've already wasted 4 hours porting to heroku

The amount of digits Python can handle is staggering...

I stopped at 100 000, because I felt that I had proven my point. That's approximately 330 000 bits! (And yes, I had to use Python to be able to calculate that number)

Doesn't work with floats, though...

I see a lot of hatred for Python all over the place, so I have to ask: Why? What do people hate so much about Python? It's fantastic for my use-case (interacting with and managing AWS resources), so is it just a case of "good for this one thing, bad for everything else," or something different?

There's a humble bumble special Python with a 6-month Pycharm pro + 50$ in digital ocean + Fluent Python + talk.python classes + more at 25$.
A portion of the sales go to the Python foundation, it's a super good deal!!!

Have anyone work on chatbot with python? I want to start this project any help will be highly appreciated. I am newby to AI

Hi! I want to learn Python, but can't understand what to start with. Will be grateful for any suggestion.

I love developing with Python, just... python tries to sneak in!

Finally found a Python intern am confident to work with.

Is it posibble to make android games with python?

when you code with Python socket, code is everywhere.

I am making a GUI wrapper in C# for a CLI tool written in Python. Obvioisly, the python exe is launched with the Process class and the output streams are redirected so I can process the console output. The problem is that some of that output is only printed if sys.stdout.isatty() returns True. Is there a hack that would allow me to launch the process in a way that python thinks that there is a console/tty attached?

I really don't want to touch the python source files, because that would be a messy solution. I also don't want the process to spawn an actual console window.

Data scientists should be charged with animal trafficking and animal abuse because they import Pandas 🐼 and feed them to Python 🐍

Starting with rust, seems like an advanced language and I think python corrupted me, it makes learning new language a task. Is it python or rust is bit complex?

well, I'm free now. In case you need a freelance software developer with experience in Python, Go and React living overseas drop me a message :)

Would be interested to hear if anyone is using HTTP/2 and on which framework. Anyone have experience with Python - what is the community package compatibility like? Thanks!

I am in school. Talking to the dean of the program he mentioned that there is a programming class that is required. Naturally I inquire about the language in the class and he responds with Python. I am ecstatic. I love Python. I eat, sleep, and breathe Python. Class comes up, and time to buy books. I am now the owner of Windows Powershell Cookbook and Learn Powershell in a Month of Lunches. :-(

What's the deal with Python ternary statements?

I had a logistical problem at my cnc job. Went to java. Then python. Then webdev with freecidecamp. Soon I'll have my certification as a front end and a I'll go on with back end. During this I make python script to make my wifes business easier to maintain and I want to start developing android apps soon. I'm 30 btw. I hope it's not too late... :)

Today was a productive day, learning a lot in python, making a REST API and almost done with user controller, and jwt tokens

Thanks to @gamingfail123 for his guidance :)

Java is perfect if you are a narcissistic egomaniac with OCD who has to declare a data type for every variable. Back to python

Want to learn python and js, but stuck working with php and some jquery, at home i’m working on an ios app, 😵, and with all of that i have to supervise some student which i hate

Started learning python async with curio and trio just two days ago, and I must say I'm really having a blast.
I have a few pending ideas to combine it with websockets (also first time I'm learning how to use them).
Haven't had this much fun with python in a while!

Also, sidequestion: how can return a value from an async function with curio or trio? I can't find a proper answer or example about that, other than some hints about memory channels in trio

I just wasted a good half hour trying to figure out why my Python dictionary was in alphabetical order.

I’ve had issues with dictionary order before with 3.5, but that was more or less Python just wanting to put shit in the order IT wants, not alphabetical. And I haven’t had that in months, not since updating to 3.6.

Long story short, VS Code has decided to show me my dictionaries in alphabetical order when I hover over them while stepping code. If I do a print statement, it shows the dictionary in the correct order.

Seriously, you don’t need to do me any favors here.

Oh, the adventures I have with Visual Studio when Python is involved...

I'm in kind of a clutch between learning Ruby or Python.
I did some stuff with Ruby (Hello World, a little RoR) but I like it a lot ao far.
However, support for it isn't that big (packages, tooling, etc) as for Python :/

Which one to pick?

Dealing with an annoying client with python:

Client email: " Help. I can't install [words] for [reasons]! "

Auto reply: " Hi [client], did you try turning it off and on again?"

This year I'm asked to teach Python with a GUI, but I've never used a graphic interface with Python. The chosen GUI must:
- Have an IDE, a sort of "drag and drop builder"
- Be capable of building software with forms, menus and multiple windows.
- Work with Windows 7 at least.
- Work with Python 3+

Any suggestions?

So far I tried:

- Tkinter: comes with the language (point in favor), but wasn't really able to make it work. Has no proper IDE, tried to use a builder called PAGE but doesn't seem to work.

- WxPython: didn't really play much with it. I've read some articles, but that's all.

- Qt: used several years ago with Ruby. Has an IDE (point in favor), but never tried with Python. This is my winner so far, the one big problem being the amount of stuff to install to properly work.
