Welcome to c/Python, the go to place to discuss Python tools, techniques, and news.
We’re just getting started, so please use this thread to suggest what this community should look like, what it should cover, and how it should operate.
The code in the community’s banner is in python 2. Can we get that changed?
Ha! Great catch. Yeah, I’ll get that sorted.
I love how the name of this community looks like cPython, Python’s reference implementation
I took notice of this as well. nice
Next experiment is Talk Tuesday where each top-level comment is about a particular conference talk that a commenter liked and why they like it.
i wonder what python version should be recommended as standard? should it be what debian stable currently has as its lastest? i’ve found some things can’t handle the new-ness of 3.11. so is it 3.10?
3.11 has been out long enough that it is supported by almost all mainstream libraries now. Unless you have a reason to use an older version (of which there are quite a few to be fair), 3.11 would be my default.
the OpenAI API doesn’t like 3.11 at the moment but yeah, it’s easy enough to use an earlier version, especially with conda
I don’t know, I just got here.
Here being only just starting to learn python. And also this community too.
Also trying out Today in Python!. I accidentally launched the first one early, in that I posted about 20 June 2023 on 19 June 2023. Whoops.
This proved to be a fair amount of work, absent a bot of some sort that I haven’t had time to create yet.
So, I failed toward just including events in the sidebar, with a link to python.org’s Event Calendar.
