I’m a big fan of base58 + almost as efficient as base64 + no special characters + no padding characters

Svn externals provide similar capabilities, though I don’t remember if an external can be an individual file. TortoiseSvn on windows made it not to painful to use. https://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.advanced.e

I love the way the new logo shows the envelope as a speech / chat bubble (notice the tail formed by the wing). Subtle touches like these make a logo a lot more interesting for me.

I was about to say the same thing. Multiprocessing on Python works great and isn’t even very hard if you use say async_apply with a Pool. Comparing single-threaded Python with multiprocesssing in Language X is unfair if not disingenuous.

The some reason is the (GNU) readline library that powers most command line editing.

With regard to restaurants, this perspective doesn’t make sense to me, primarily because reviews are found on third party services and not on the restaurant’s website. If I’m going to a new area, I rely on ratings and reviews to know if I w
