In general the contributors and the C-suits don’t travel in the same circles. What it really means is that in 30 years Bill Gates has never wanted to meet Linus Torvalds enough to make it happen.
dataclasses do this for you at the class level. They enforce type annotations at instantiation.
Oh I’m well aware. Took me a solid year to appreciate type annotations for what they are and yeah I’m happy using what we have in stdlib now and not messing with mypy tyvm. The problem is that history is lost to newcomers who have very different expectations. Modern IDE’s mostly solve it though, so for all my Java peeps dipping their toes into the snake waters, listen to your ide
Dude, even just a “FY,I, you sure about this?” would be nice. I gladly embrace python’s by-all-means-shotgun-your-leg-off philosophy, but the noobs could use the help.
python:
a: str = 1
I was sync for me, but hell yeah, it’s been a good couple of years.
So fucking true. I’ve was in an interview, 2nd round, where the recruiter joined the call mid coding exercise to explain that a different recruiter had just given the position to someone else without waiting for feedback on anyone else and therefore they had to stop all in process interviews. She was pissed and apologized. The guy giving the interview just gave me this look like “they do this shit all the time” and ended the call.
Tech recruiters really can be this dumb. I’ve been on both ends several times.
I remember hiring for a test dev, writing the description for the recruiter, I included all the things I’d like to see. Python, test automation experience, open source contributions etc (this was for a public facing repo).
I get back a question a day later asking if they need Java or not. That felt really out of place so I walked over and had a conversation. Turns out they were filtering out anyone who had more than requested. Python AND Java experience? No thank you.
On the upside once we ironed that out I ended up hiring two people I’ve been friends with for a decade+. Sometimes the recruiters just need help.
Now the other side of things…I’ve definitely had recruiters screw up and lose very good candidates, but it was always for stupid shit like they forgot to send the offer letter for a week or they accidentally put them in the “no” pile.
Heh, this one time we got a recruiter ping our team out of the blue saying they had a candidate. No one knew what the hell the position was for. Turns out the recruiters had forgot about a bunch of openings we had closed like a year before, they just never took down the postings. We asked him how he found the job, and the candidate said he manual went through the thousands of open positions until he found one that fit him. He hired him after the first round and he turned out to be awesome.
That’s just built in with extra steps.
_stranger_@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Python needs an actual default function2·1 month agoPython is an interpreted language that doesn’t need a main function explicitly. You can define any package entry points you want at the package config level. (setup.py, etc)
example: What I meant was I prefer language that treat developers like adults. If I want ptrhon’s “ux” to hide some functions or objects I can do that with underscores, but nothing is private, a developer using my library can do whatever they want with it, access whatever internals they want (at their own risk of course)
_stranger_@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Python needs an actual default function2·1 month agoPython doesn’t need the name main check to function at all. that’s just a convenience feature that lets developers also include arbitrary entry points into modules that are part of a library and expected to be used as such. If you’re writing a script, a file with a single line in it reading
print("hello world")
will work fine when run:python thescript.py

She was making scarry eyes and jazz hands while she said it. It was a sex ed course and her #1 message to all of us jr high boys was wearing deodorant and scrub your ass in the shower. In retrospect, I think she said that in such a cartoonish manner because she knew it was ridiculous, and really she just didn’t want to gag from the stench after phys ed.
That same nun told me her favorite band was "those good Irish boys with the rap music, I just wish they’d pick a more respectful name than ‘beasty boys’ "
We were all sneaking looks at each other’s hands for at least a month after that though.
I call everything a script. Makes the Java devs real mad. Makes the PM’s super confused.
It’s much more likely that they don’t know. Look at the DOGE staffers hand picked by musk, they are completely incompetent but hyper confident. If they’re indicative of the software engineers working at Tesla, then they most likely assumed their code was perfect. Keep in mind it’s all running on LLM code now.
