I am in that annoying awkward phase of coding where I am doing performance improvements... Need to wait 5 minutes between each run before I have some actionable results to code against... ugh this is so slow.

I'm just going to watch more low-budget macgyver episodes each time this runs.

Been doing a lot of coding in python lately. While some of the hackability of the language is nice for doing some cool things, overall, I cant say im a fan. Its a little too obscured for writing algorithms where effiency is important. Its hard to tell what data types are truly backing various variables and thus makes it tricky to pick the right implementation. I think im working with raw arrays and they turn out to be linked lists or worse. Even then things like a "Dict" isnt always clear if its a Tree implementation or a hashmap implementation or something else entirely.

Granted this isnt an impossible task, I have managed to figure it out by pulling open the source code of the libraries I call and using profiling tools. But python seems to not care or obscures a lot of that.

I missed #FollowFriday with new years and everything so let me do that now.

This one is a bit special to me as I feel like the last month or two we have had some really great new members join us. While we have always had a wonderful community it usually takes time to acquire new active members who make this place better, most come and go. But it seems the quality of new members this last month has been really nice to see. Here is my #ff

Some new people and some oldies worth checking out. Keep in mind these are real people, they post about everything, not just their professions or hobbies.

@mur2501 - Posts mostly cool infographics, has an interest in nature, cats, and indie.

@lhackworth - Techie, software engineer, recently posts about deep learning

@torresjrjr - Programmer, Linux, Floss

@lbing - Techie

@hansw - Software engineer, I think he dabbles in electronics too but could be misremembering.

@2ck - Software Engineer

@timorl - Programmer & researcher

@lupyuen - IoT dev

@ml2 - Mathematics Ph.D.

@Capitancuk - Biology, Biochem, Genetics

@trinsec - Gamer, Dutch

@General - A group for general chat

@QOTO - A group for anything qoto

@Science - A science chat group.

If you seriously think like the OP in this meme you can kindly go fuck yourself, thanks.

#MastoAdmin anyone out there who can speak #French who can help me with a user? Neither I nor any of the moderators on this server speak french and I'd really hate to ban a user over an inability to vet them.

Fucking plebs in california are still stuck in 2020. The east coast kids are already a year ahead of them! We are always leading the way!

Happy New Years everyone, welcome to 2021!!!
