FastApi very recently added support for Annotated, and now recommends using that over default arguments.

I absolutely agree about fixtures-as-arguments thing. Ward does this a lot better, using default values for the fixture factory. There's a long issue on ideas to implement something like that as a pytest plugin (https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3834), but it seems the resulting plugin relies on something of a hack.

Different time period, but definitely check out History of the Twentieth Century.

I also switched to just recently. Nice and simple syntax, and a very satisfying verb:

Also chiming in to say thanks for the good work! This looks like an amazing release - I practically jumped in excitement when I saw the fish style autocomplete.

Disabling mutation prevents you from changing attributes after instantiation, no?
eirki | 4 years ago | on: The Data Classes Decorator
I just wish I could disable the type coercion. E.g. 1 becomes "1" if the attribute is annotated str.

I think the comparison between VS Code and Chrome is spot on. Monoculture in the text editor/IDE space is a very real risk right now.

If 10% are located in and around one location and the rest are spread around the world, then that would definitely count as 'heavily concentrated' in my book

> For instance Australia has a lot more private wealth saved up than Norway. At a lower GINI coefficient as well!
This is demonstrably false: https://data.oecd.org/chart/6tTs

This is my experience as well. $10 for each running process (server, worker, database) adds up very fast.

Absolutely agree. The myriad of overlapping tools were the biggest problem for me when learning javascript.
eirki | 4 years ago | on: Julia: Faster than Fortran, cleaner than Numpy
Genuine question: Is Julia used for anything other than mathematics yet? Is there any sign of the Julia community expanding beyond science, maths, machine learning etc?

And some linters will complain if there is a collision between the names of a parameter and a function.

Absolutely love the idea of using default params to identify fixtures. That part of pytest has always rubbed me the wrong way.

This is very good advice. It's often so tempting to get on that threadmill after making the first purchase.
