This was to show that there is a @ operator in python that has been there since python 3.5, but is not used at all in the standard library! It's used for matrix multiplication in numpy, however if you define __matmul__, you can use it too!

I found the biggest calipers at work today.

Textual is pretty fast these days. Who would have thunk that you could implement a CSS layout and rendering engine in #Python and have it perform this fast, in a *terminal* ? It's fast enough, but there are still wins remaining. And we haven't done any C or Rust extensions.

I’m stuck in Newark for the night. My @united flight from ILM was delayed, and then despite us being at Newark, we missed the connection since we couldn’t get to a gate. We were here at the airport and there were at least 13 people and United ops didn’t think to maybe delay it!

It’s frustrating to watch your connection leave…from the other plane you are stuck on and then for you to park 5 minutes later. At least have the courtesy of being extremely late so I don’t feel so slighted!

For my birthday, my grandpa gave me his old vacuum tube chest. He did in home tv and radio repair as a side job in the 1950s and 1960s. According to him he would carry this with one arm and a mirror under the other so he could see the tv while working on the back!

All full of original tubes, 60-70 years old, most have never been open and basically brand new in box!

I got a pre-owned 2022 Nissan Leaf last December as I really needed a car. If my battery is measured in kWh (as all electrical storage generally is), why don't ICE cars measure their gas tank in horsepower-hours? 🤨🤔

There is aprox 1.3e9 joules in 10 gal of gas. That would be 484.3 hph.

I love conversions and the use of units that should not be used to describe something, like mechanical horsepower to electrical kilowatts 😅

It’s interesting my cat seems to be able to count to 3. If I pick up her three favorite toys and she sees me pick them up, she will not chase until the same three been thrown. I hide them behind my back so it’s not like she can see them left in my hand. She just knows!

If we are sharing before Twitter dies I’d like to celebrate 4 years of alcohol sobriety this month, 7 years prescription opiates sobriety this year, and I’ve been relapse free from eating disorder stuff for a little over 4 years. Life’s hard but accepting help works! 🥳 🎉🌈🎉

Ada always knows where to sit.
Because of my multiple past collapsed lungs, and that one time I had pneumonia and missed 2 months of eighth grade the doctor says I am a high risk Covid patient. Let’s hope the paxlovid helps it stay mild.

Finally got Covid. This sucks.
