I was looking to see if there are equivalents to Java’s private and protected members, and it looks like Python’s answer to that is just throw one or two underscores in front of things to do that. And it doesn’t really do anything, more of just a naming convention. To me that feels like a basic OO structure that is shoehorned into Python.

You’re right in that OOP feels very shoehorned in with Python. But not every project has a Linus Torvalds to publicly humiliate horrible ideas and implementations.

Write a new method, make sure to reference self first. Write a new method, make sure to reference self first. Call the method, make sure to reference self first.

Yeah, I can see it.

Poilievre: “Hrm… maybe if I take off my glasses…”

We’re gonna need a bigger ladder.

I misread the original quote as being from Terry Pratchett and as I was reading your comment I was like “No way in hell, what is this guy talking about?”.

Poilievre isn’t a Trump clone. Trump is perceived as an outsider to politics, someone who isn’t a normal politician. Poilievre hasn’t had any other jobs than being a politician, and tried to run with Trump’s policies. I’m not going to say that’s why he lost the election, but he’s a long way from being a clone since he lacked one of the major traits that most people who would vote for Trump would identify with.

18kt gold is an alloy with 75% gold and other metals that may be magnetic. I wouldn’t trust a gold chain around my neck with an MRI.

It was a knee MRI. She wasn’t stuck inside it, she just wanted her husband to help get her off of the table instead of just the technician.

Still a horrible scene though, but not quite as horrific as your first imagining.

Congrats on the year anniversary! I don’t always click on your posts, but when they show up in my feed I’m always happy to see it. I’ll have to try out Uncharted 4 since that’s your top game in the Best Of section.

When I’m playing games, I never think about taking screenshots. How do you manage to take so many? Do you have the mentality while playing that you’re always on the lookout for interesting shots to take? Do you have your finger hovered over the print screen button?

Wouldn’t better efficiency lead to less physical requirements for the same output which leads to lower labour costs?

Semicolons are also an indicator. Who the hell uses those?

I am Neutral Good.

I just love watching people making do with what they have. I was wondering how in the hell he was going to get out of the car and thought he’d have to go out the window. His method was only a little scary and pretty impressive.

Looks like a great game! Reminds me of the squirrel segment in “The Sword and the Stone”, which was one of my favourite parts of the movie. Who hasn’t wanted to run around as a squirrel?

That driver was using 0.5% of system resources! I thought it would be worse when I saw “259 blocks free”, but overall that’s pretty good.

Ahh! The beast that screams while it eats! (to quote an old, old reddit comment)

I’m colourblind and forgot if the links start blue or purple. Dammit.
