The history of document file formats:
-
(But I personally much rather use punctuation than whitespace. By a parsec)
-
I mean the way I see it you've gotta use whitespace either way if you want things to be readable.
-
Absolutely, and I wouldn't even mind that much if a set amount/style of whitespace were enforced by linter or whatnot.
It's the whitespace-as-punctuation that is weird to me.
-
From a technical standpoint, line breaks certainly punctuate. ;)

Python is poetry. JavaScript is prose.

@rl_dane @amin @dmoonfire (see the link in the post!)

@steffo @amin @rl_dane @dmoonfire uv is a fucking Rust thing and unportable.
@mgorny IIRC has a better suggestion, but as I rarely do Python or py3k, I forgot which.

@steffo @mirabilos @rl_dane @dmoonfire @mgorny
(Yes, I was fully aware of the pun when I said "Python is Poetry")

@amin @steffo @mirabilos @dmoonfire @mgorny
I wasn't. XD

@rl_dane @steffo @mirabilos @dmoonfire @mgorny
It was mostly meta-humor, mostly for me. ;)

You have to understand, my brain just free associates like crazy. It's how I think. Sometimes I like to let it out of the cages I keep it in to be able to focus on tasks, to have fun a bit. But I don't need to call attention to the hilariously wild leaps of association my mind is making. ;)
