RIP Ozzy Osbourne. You made my life richer and fuller. I'm going to miss the hell out of you.

I ran two different versions of #Python between my local instance and my deployed instance, so that will do it for mysterious bugs that hard to debug. I'm glad string delimiters are not so rigid in version 3.12. I want to be able to reuse double quotes on the fly and not break the app.

Anybody see a #python app handle errors differently in the cloud as opposed to how you defined it locally? Maybe it's because of Microsoft service jankiness but I'm ticked off the machine in Azure doesn't behave and interact with services the way I expected, and I can't recreate it in the debugger

Your daily reminder that the U.S. Postal SERVICE is a service that is designed to benefit taxpayers and not a business that should be expected to turn a profit.
NEW: The U.S. Postal Service posted a net loss of $3.3 billion in this fiscal year’s second quarter mainly due to “significant challenges out of our control,” including workers’ compensation costs, Luke Grossmann, USPS chief financial officer, said at the open session of the governing board meeting

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.
100% of his salary is paid by WA state.
Elon fired him. Share his story.

The most important thing I can tell everyone that I've learned from being a YouTuber who explains how stuff works is that each and every time I thought "this is common knowledge and doesn't need to be explained" I was wrong.

Today I learned in #Python ("email") is considered a string while ("email",) is considered a tuple. Why would I wrap a string in parentheses if I didn't want to make a tuple? Why add a useless comma?? Let me make a one entry tuple like I asked!

I am once again asking all project managers to allocate time and budget to implementing a dark mode for anything with a front end. Please spare my retinas.
I'm once again asking you all, please add dark mode to your thing. It doesn't have to be amazing, I don't care if your brand colours aren't suited to it (just don't use them 🤷🏻♂️). I just really don't want to be forced to look at glaring white. *Especially* for native apps (p.s make a web app).

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:
1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;
2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;
3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
