@itamarst My sense is that #uv solved the problems that #Pipenv set out to address & uv's approach is superior. Pipenv usage will be stable the same as python 2.7

Pipenv had many missteps & reasons for complaint. But when it started 8 years ago(!), python venv & req management were almost total chaos. Apart from Anaconda and Docker, it was common practice to YOLO an unpinned requirements.txt

Pipenv was a leap forward. Grateful for the effort. Generations of better tools have come since, tho

@studiop It sounds like you're trying to represent the associativity and precedence of the syntax of these expressions as you build on them. I think the appropriate way to model this is as a tree.

From "Crafting Interpreters" [1] :

"One way to visualize that precedence is using a tree. Leaf nodes are numbers, and interior nodes are operators with branches for each of their operands."

@colindean @blackpythondevs having the same issue. Will try again tomorrow, and keep an eye on this thread in the meantime #PyCon #PyConUS #bpdxpycon

Great keynote from @kjaymiller at #PyConUS24 on all the great work happening at @blackpythondevs

If everybody in the room this morning donated $2, they'd meet their #PyCon fundraising goal!

One good sign: I'm trying to donate now, and their payment processor is slammed. Here's hoping the python community shows up and shows out! #bpdxpycon

@MissingThePt Admit it. If you were required to watch multiple weeks of the south Florida crew going on the road to take on Washington's team, you'd nod off a few times yourself

The letter from the editor in our local #MadisonWI weekly -- the #Isthmus -- is a thoughtful reflection on their decision to stop posting to #Twitter (finally)

Sounds like they'd love a platform that (a) has sane moderation policies, (b) helps them build their own audience, and (c) drives traffic to their website. How do you make the pitch that mastodon should be their next move?

(They have a limited staff, so running their own instance is probably out)

Ariana Mendible is sharing a great talk, "Small Town Police Accountability: A Data Science Toolkit" here at #SciPy2023. Her group has created a great package to help researchers parse the output of FOIA (Freedom Of Information Act) requests, using #OCR, #NLP, and #Python. The library, called SToPA, is available on GitHub: https://github.com/qsideinstitute/SToPA
