Are you guys editing bitbucket-pipelines.yml manually or creating it programmatically?

While I can write beautiful python code my bitbucket-pipelines.yml looks like carbage. It hurts.

AI Features a Waste of Time?

How many cumulative programmer-hours have been wasted on AI integration?

Great CPython bug: "Incrementing class variable about 2**32 times causes the Python 3.12.1 interpreter to crash"
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/113462

(background: classes now have a version number to make it possible to cache method lookups. the version is incremented if the class is mutated. if the version number overflows, weird stuff happens.)

Incrementing class variable about 2**32 times causes the Python 3.12.1 interpreter to crash · Issue #113462 · python/cpython

Any recommendations of #datascience articles/sources which define #data, #rawdata, #information and(or) #knowledge and the relationship between these terms? I am familiar with a lot of information technology, legal & political science literature, but not so much within data science. Is this also part of the conversation in the practical sphere of #dataprocessing?

A gamedev realized Linux users were just 5.8% of their sales, but represented 38% of bug reports.

Then they looked at those numbers closer, and realized. Linux users were not experiencing more bugs. Almost none of the Linux-user bugs were Linux-related. Linux users were simply *more likely to file bugs*.

Their conclusion: A linux port pays for itself bc it nerdsnipes ppl into giving u free QA, see:
