Can't agree more. Worst release of #python

#python 3.8 is released. The worst python release so far. :=

I hope, that python4 will concentrate on removing useless stuff from the core, performance, and extending typing support.

Ideally, asyncio should be moved to a separate package, := should be undone. We all make mistakes.

​​In a chord diagram (or radial network), entities are arranged radially as segments with their relationships visualised by arcs that connect them. The size of the segments illustrates the numerical proportions, whilst the size of the arc illustrates the significance of the relationships1.

Chord diagrams are useful when trying to convey relationships between different entities, and they can be beautiful and eye-catching.

​​Mypy stubs, i.e., type information, for numpy, pandas and matplotlib for your #ds #python projects.

Lots of functions are already typed, but a lot is still missing (numpy and pandas are huge libraries).

P.S. We are happy to promote any national online activities, which are valuable and open to public.

​​Voila turns Jupyter notebooks into standalone web applications.

Unlike the usual HTML converted notebooks, each user connecting to the Voila tornado application gets a dedicated Jupyter kernel which can execute the callbacks to changes in Jupyter interactive widgets.

- By default, Voila disallows execute requests from the front-end, preventing execution of arbitrary code.
- By default, Voila runs with the strip_source option, which strips out the input cells from the rendered notebook.

#python

​​A terminal-based presentation tool with colors and effects.

Present your stuff without leaving your terminal!

Personal opinion: this might be a really cool thing for live-coding sessions for people using vim/emacs. The context switch would be minimal.

Diagrams lets you draw the cloud system architecture in Python code. It was born for prototyping a new system architecture design without any design tools. You can also describe or visualize the existing system architecture as well. Diagrams currently supports main major providers including: AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Alibaba Cloud, Oracle Cloud etc... It also supports On-Premise nodes, SaaS and major Programming frameworks and languages.
