Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Subcommands with lazy imports In case you didn't hear, PEP 810 got accepted which means Python 3.15 is going to support lazy imports! One of the selling points of lazy imports is with code that has a CLI so that you only import co...

I've started to play with lazy imports thanks to my WASI build script being in CPython's repo, and so I wrote a post about how to adapt your code for running subcommands with argparse to play nicely with lazy imports.

PEP 810: Explicit lazy imports 👋 Hi everyone, We are very exited to share with you PEP 810: Explicit lazy imports: We’re proposing an opt-in lazy import syntax that defers module loading until first use, aiming for faster startup,...

one of these days I really should get started on trying to convince the glibc folks to add a dlopen-from-memory feature, so that maybe we finally get that feature sometime this decade 😅

Apparently the UK adult verification thing has basically banned blind people from half of the internet because they can't use the verification system 🫣

people unable to work are not expected to do so, unlike in a capitalist society. not to mention how awfully inept the current capitalist society is to handle neurodivergency in work settings, which is in large my specific problem. but fuck off I guess.

the ethics of bringing people into the planet are very complicated

the world is simply fucked, and I truly wish I would not had been born 😢

if I can't work I am unable to survive by myself, and can't actually enjoy life, as I am unable to do the things I am passionate about, or almost anything else, really.

which one are you taking? if you don't mind me asking
