I gave it a try and ran into a situation where the 8 of hearts was the open card at the bottom of a column, and I had a 7 of spades sitting alone in another column, and when I tried to move the 7 to the 8, it refused to let me do it. It&#x

Just make sure you watch it all the way to the end. Or at least pay attention to the date in the title.

I remember "cat lipstick" being a big joke/meme 20 years ago on Fark.com. Ceiling Cat was omnipresent and FB- was the father of the multitudes.

Maybe I'm just really out of my depth on this, but it feels like there's not a lot of information about _why_ these particular steps and tools are used. Why are 4 different Linux images needed? Why are there all of these steps t

I'm probably an oddball compared to most, but I use a VM as my main work environment. My main reason is because it's super easy to create a backup and test anything like OS or major software updates there first to make sure it do

I just tried it out, but for some reason it's complaining about missing a pivot_vtab module when I try to open an existing database. (MacOS ARM/Ventura)

That's fantastic! I really appreciate it. I'm going to give it a whirl later this week.

This is pretty cool! I recently started keeping "one text file per month" for my work stuff, and it's been really helpful to have one place to go to see what my next plans are, what I was doing recently, picking up on old tr

I've seen the "workspaces" thing in a few different browsers now. I know Vivaldi and Arc have them, and it sounds like it's a separate thing from profiles, but I don't quite grok what the difference is between works

I've used both DB Browser and SQLiteStudio, and I prefer the flow and interface of SQLiteStudio. It's been a few years since I've used DB Browser, so I forget exactly what I didn't like about it. Maybe I should download

A little over a year ago I was struggling with python related to packaging and managing my own dependencies. I found a blog post called "Relieving your Python packaging pain"[0] that piqued my interest with its simplicity. A cou

I have one of these sitting on my shelf! I still get it down and flip through it every so often. I used BeOS around 2002 and 2003, and it was so cool. One of my favorite things was when I figured out how to use file system metadata to ess

I haven't had the same experience with Yabai. I've been using it happily and without issue since April, and I don't think I've had to restart it once. Before Yabai I was using Amethyst, but like your experience with Yab

In the post link, there's a section called "See it in action" with a video, and in there he shows an example of installing gedit into a container and running it.

I've been using Amethyst for a few years now. It's not exactly a separate WM in terms of changing the window decorations, but it's more of a kind of an automation layer that works through the Accessibility access layer of Ma

I did some looking around, and it sounds like it fails to work correctly with namespace packages. Something about the way you have to add them to the path leads to them being later in the path, so there could be times where they don't

Thanks. I know that was the case with the M1 MBPs, but wasn't sure if that would carry over to the M2 versions, and I didn't see anything about charging via the USB-C ports in the press relese.

This may be a stupid question, but does anyone know if you could charge through one of the Thunderbolt ports instead of having to use the magsafe connector? My work uses Macs for all employees, and they've been generous enough to supp

I'd be curious to know what they are, as I'm interested in giving the -t flag a try myself.

It's funny how "pip help list" or "pip help freeze" works. :-) I found I can add --path .lib to list/freeze those. It's an extra step, but not too terrible.

by thinker5555 4y ago
I tinkered with this a little, and it's interesting. But what about using pip list or pip freeze? They don't show the packages in the .lib directory. Do you just add them by hand to the requirements.txt?

by thinker5555 4y ago
Yup. We have a bot that the user slacks directly with a product code, and the bot will query our WMS and return the location it's in and how many are on hand. Why not just query the WMS directly? Because our WMS charges per user acc

Granted, I'm more of a hobbiest than a dev, but I think this is part of the problem that virtualenvs are supposed to help solve. One project (virtualenv) can have numpy==3.2, and another can have numpy==3.1. Maybe I'm naive, but

As a "self taught and still learning developer-lite", I love the python language, but the ecosystem drives me nuts. I feel a lot of the pain expressed in the article, and it pretty much speaks to my current conclusion of "I&
