The global fertility rate (the number of child born per woman) has been declining since 1963 or so, and is almost at replacement level, which is usually considered 2.1 or so.
Population is still going up since global life expectancy is still rising, but the expectation is that population will peak in 50 years or so.
My point is that if your variable can be None then you need the same pattern for the length check.
So for the Pythonic version:
if (foo is not None) and not foo:
...
For the explicit length check:
if (foo is not None) and (len(foo) == 0):
...
Honestly you’re probably better off using type hints and catching such things with static checks and not adding the None check.
You’d need to explicitly check for None if using the len() construct as well, so this doesn’t change the point of the article.
My ad blocker has blocked all pictures on this article, so I can’t say. 😄
We’ve had a similar ban in the Netherlands for a year or two now. Mobile phones were already not allowed in classes. Kids seem to have survived.
Not only, since TERFs exist.
You may want to try Organic Maps. It can probably help in 80% of situations where you use Google Maps.
Copying is not theft.
I think that they will. Much like tech workers who had no interest in unions because they thought that they were aligned with the owners, management is going to have a rude awakening and learn that if you don’t own the company then you are just labor.
I suppose it is possible to have two PR that have changes that depend on each other. In general this just requires refactoring… typically making a third PR removing the circular dependency.
It sounds like your policy is to keep PR around a long time, maybe? Generally we try to have ours merged within a few days, before bitrot sets in.
You can make a PR against your feature branch and have that reviewed. Then the final PR against your man branch is indeed huge, but all the changes have already been reviewed, so it’s just LGTM and merge that bad boy!
How is this different from creating a feature branch and making your PR against them until everything is done, then merging that into the main branch?
I’m reminded that Macs did not have right buttons for decades because Steve Jobbs didn’t want them.
There are definitely non copyrighted videos! Both old videos (all still black and white I think) and also things released into the public domain by copyright holders.
But for sure that’s a very small subset of videos.
It’s unclear to me what your point is.
Is it that this is roughly equivalent to €345 today, and we should point out the current worth?
Or is it that the purchasers go 10 years of value for €270 and so this is a big nothing burger?
He is currently featured in a Humble Bundle, so if you read digital books (I use a tablet, my wife a ebook reader, but you can also use a phone or laptop) then you can get many of his books cheaply (without DRM, of course).

I think that we can expect more propaganda from big tech, including political pressure from the USA. Fighting capitalism is going to be a long battle!
Emacs was the first bloated IDE!
Farmers tend to be right wing, and often exist as Republican counties in Democratic states. So probably also these farmers.
