Finally I did #distribution #upgrade to the #Ubuntu #Focal #Fossa. Everything went well, except #Python 3.8.6 gave me a bit of hard time. Had to downgrade it. Yet 3.9 is the version I'm actually using.
BLOCKED as a “porn site”. Apparently, there was a python dot com that was a #pr0n site, so they blocked any URL with “python” in it, including python dot org.
Me: Can you guys take a look at python.org and see that it is not the #porn site?
IT Security: No. The user just can’t use the software until there’s an approved version that ships with the updated Python it needs.
(Sometimes, supporting users means being a user advocate, tilting at windmills.)
Finding the #Nim language interesting because it reminds me of !Python.
It has some similarities to #Python, at least on the surface level that the 2nd video explores, along with compiling to #C (so interfacing with C via FFI is said to be “easy”).
Flawesome. Linux native since 1995. On Fedi since 2008. Working in #Racket, #Tcl, #Python, whatever gets the page up. Solving yesterday's problems tomorrow. A dad. Freddiemercurykin.

@davidpgil Don't #Python and #JavaScript have totally different uses? One runs on the server side (or on the client in native apps), one runs in the browser on the client side. It's useful to know both, but surely Python is useful for a much wider range of things? @cypnk
Seeing that tables (which are dictionaries—associative arrays—that can also act as regular arrays if numeric keys are used) are the only data structure, it sort of twists my mind into contortions trying to imagine how to structure certain kinds of data. That’s good, IMO, because history (took classes decades ago on BASIC, COBOL, Pascal, C, C++, Java, ...) predisposes me to look for arrays and records (or objects that encapsulate records) as the building blocks.
I’ve also downloaded (but not yet installed) #Erlang and #Elixir for Windows.
