Lunduke has a long history of using negative clickbait titles (the Linux sucks series and HTTPS is bad) to gain views. I'm not surprised that he has somehow found a way to milk this controversy too!


Apparently, most people on Reddit and HN feel that Solus lost its momentum after Ikey left. The relatively conservative development Solus is seeing with Josh Strobl et al. isn't sexy enough!


Canvas will not preview contents in zip archives or formats like ipynb.


As someone who has worked long hours to finish difficult homework assignments during my student years, it really annoys me when I get blank submissions corrupted by sites like corruptmyfile.com. Recently, a few colleagues have started grading such files with a zero and will report it to student affairs if the corruption process is extremely obvious.


What makes you feel that malicious apps are the only vector for these exploits. The web is open and iOS users can still download files on their devices. Let's disable file downloads altogether and limit people to an alternative "reviewed" web.

Please don't use the flimsiest of excuses to bootstrap an argument for a more restrictive world.


Just wanted to say Thanks for this amazing project! IlBeen using it for years now and for simple debugging and peeking into data files, nothing beats IPython in convenience!


Thanks ! I invite you to also read the 7.x what's new as well. The debugger got a few improvements sponsored by D.E Shaw group (hiding and skipping frames for example). Hope to have you contribute some code at some point, if not already.


> It's impossible, people are not rebelling after being forced in their homes for two years

Did you ever get the news that the world went through a pandemic and millions of people lost their lives? We all hate being cooped up at home but what's the alternative? What did you expect the governments to do when they had no other solutions?

When you talk about good countries, please remember that their citizens make them so. If you ever happen to move to one of these "good" countries, please remember that these societies are built upon a collective realization that rights come with a set of moral duties and obligations towards each other. By staying inside, we bought old, sick and immune-compromised people some time till a vaccine arrived.


A rational number (with a terminating decimal representation or a repeating, non-terminating decimal representation) can always be expressed in fractional p/q form.

I don't think the additional "rational" qualifier is needed for fractions.


Looks like all three replies to this share the same misunderstanding of my intent, so I assume my use of “it’s” was unhelpfully vague.

1/pi is not rational and therefore not “a rational fraction”, but think 1/pi is “a fraction”.


Your comment brought me to the realization that the relationship doesn't hold both ways. A rational number can always be written as a fraction but a fraction is not always rational. Never considered this before today :)


In softer forms of treatment like talk therapy, the patient's agency is emphasized and encouraged by the pschologist. However, the prescription (and assessment of the suitability of) drugs and active substances should remain the domain of a licensed practitioner.


Merry Christmas!
