@linuxgal #Oughtabiography in its honed honesty suits for most,
...but probably not for #autofiction'ers, who so fancifully (albeit uninterestingly) explain/imply how they should be seen and interpreted by others.
#Autobiography is for people who think they might actually have interesting first-hand observations & insights of their actual life, that might offer some tips & clues for others w/ their journeys, or just work as a memoir based on diaries and/or inveterate memories.

Indeed, this is common to all languages/platforms that use IEEE-754 floating-point arithmetic. The decimal module is there for those cases where "close" isn't good enough - like when you want fixed precision because you're dealing with currency figures and there's no such thing as 3 ten-billionths of a cent.

@jonmsterling I once read of someone being complemented for their ability to think outside the box, to which they replied: "there is no box", and then after further thought they added: "you invented the box".
I write wagering that you might sympathise with such a commentator, who finds themselves explaining to their listener that they might live in, or have their thought constrained by, a box of their own making.
In a not-wholly-dissimilar vein, I wish that I knew to whom to attribute the quote "there's no such thing as software", which I came across, I assume written by an electrical engineer, when I read for the first time of Single Event Upsets or Bit-Flips.
As an aside I am also reminded of this short fictional story from @linuxgal https://techhub.social/@linuxgal/115442398217937734
