For python, there's pexpect: http://pexpect.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

You could probably do something like that, but it'd be a huge waste of time. The time to brew a batch is pretty much the same no matter the volume. I.E. Brewing a 5 gallon batch ta…

Here are all of the supported ! searches: https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html or just search ddg for !bang

The killer feature for me with ddg (as a programmer) is the ! searches for documentation: !php strstr !python os.makedirs !pypi requests !js String etc. This gives you a single sea…

As another reply has suggested, David Friedman's Machinery of Freedom is an excellent book which describes how private defense, law and dispute resolution might happen. This video …

1. Your ORM can derive it's schema from the database's. 2. I think the main point of the post was that you can run ad-hoc SQL queries no matter how much you've denormalized. You ca…

I don't ever use git -p directly, but I use magit ( https://github.com/magit/magit ) for emacs, which makes staging changes this way very easy.

Why wouldn't he just grab a knife from his kitchen? Or run them down with his car? Or a bat? Or set their house on fire? Not having a gun isn't going to stop a person who wants to …

Where is transactional DDL on this list?

You make a request for several ranges of a file using the range header, something like: Range: bytes=100-200, 600-800, 1500- If the server supports ranges, it will respond with a 2…

Do you think the government should have subpoena power in order to collect evidence? Do you think they should be able to search a murderer's home for the weapon? Of course they sho…
