The article only states that the post was deliberately lowered in the rankings to reduce its visibility. "Is this true" ? What your explanation is hinting at, although you're not s…

Yes, that's true. The thread reached the top of Hacker News, then disappeared. I had to use HN Algolia to find it again.

Please don't assume your experience applies to everyone. If ChatGPT can't do what I want, my first reaction is to ask Claude for the same thing. Often to find out that Claude perfo…

Tourists expecting to form lasting connections with locals always made me laugh. How deep can these connections be if you're only staying for a month? Why would a local invest in a…

And in my experience, nesting f-strings and using quotes in f-strings is more useful than the GIL and faster start-up times, so YMMV.

200 slides to cover loops and conditionals ?

- none of these functionalities are "overlooked", this is pretty basic python - for fibonacci you have a decorator for memoization (functools cache / lru_cache) - you don't need to…

they've been in France a few decades, France is a more than a thousand years old, how can they have been integral to building to French economy ? were they here during the industri…

Just tried the first prompt with ChatGPT... : "One kilogram of steel and two kilograms of feathers weigh the same. The weight of an object is determined by its mass, not the materi…

And in the "diseases wordlist", you have "chute des cheveux" and... "voyeuriste" ( https://github.com/theophpo/medical-wordlist/blob/main/fr/di... ). So, yeah, I didn't look any fu…

That's not entirely true, you can rollback a change on modern switches/routers, either via a rollback command, or with a revert timer (configure terminal revert timer X) (because t…

Except they do. A very few risk their lives to reach the UK (usually because they have family there), but millions choose to stay in Western Europe (e.g France, Germany).

It is at least partially due to the education system: MPSI -> MP -> ENS Cachan / Lyon / Ulm. Very hard entrance exams to make sure they get the best students. Small promotion (IIRC…

You misunderstood my comment. I said it felt out of place * here* , in a video dedicated to her mathematical work, hosted on mathunion.org (the clue is in the URL). Doesn't mean sh…

I wasn't even thinking about that, but then I watched all videos, and in hers she spends more time talking about the war than she does talking about her work. I understand she's be…

what you don't understand is that FastAPI is not a web framework, so it is neither fast nor slow, it's just a patchwork of libraries on top of Starlette.

A russian equivalent based on the fact that foreign words aren't declined: Человек человеку волк, а зомби зомби зомби

By paying yourself with a salary via your company, you'd pay 10% revenue tax + health insurance (ЗО) + social insurance (ДЗПО, ДОО)... except the insurance part is capped on a maxi…

The numbers in this article are wrong, especially the company vs individual chart: you'd only pay 16% tax with a company if you paid yourself in dividends. Past a certain threshold…

they are not equivalent, and they couldn't be, shouldn't be, and won't be. Most engineering schools recruit after two years of highly theoretical education in mathematics and physi…

The french "engineering schools" are actually considered the elite scientific education in France. They are infinitely more selective than universities and provide much better job …

For those interested in the topic of sex surrogates, I recommend the movie "The sessions" (2012, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1866249/ )

Not sure what else they could say, when 95% of FastAPI features come directly from Starlette. Again, the code on github speak for itself. As for the remaining 5%, that's basically …
