  • The Python steering committee bans Tim Peters, a Python core developer, for 3 months. In an unrelated discussion, someone proposed a new election system for the steering committee. Then the creator of Python insinuated through a comment in the post suggesting why not we ask for an opinion from an expert that he knows, but we need to wait a bit as he’s been banned. OP claims this comment has been removed, but may be it’s been reinstated as it’s still there last time I check.

    edited: some grammar typos, and edit some words for clearer context.




  • which countries are they? I guess somewhere in Europe?

    In my country which is fairly progressing, (and I presume most South East Asia countries at least), the infrastructure are not conducive to riders or even pedestrians. Roads are build with no pavement for people to walk by, even in residential areas. The bicycle lane are pathetically small and narrowly designed that riders have to dangerously share the small strips of lane with other vehicles. People will use car even when going to shops that will only take 5 minutes walk.

    They want to reduce the cost of constructions, I guess. But I wonder how much the country can save in the healhcare system by providing good infrastructure resulting in health-minded citizens that prefer to walk and ride.















  • The problem is not the server. One of the reasons is because lemmy world is being DDoS attacked by certain party with grudges. Because lemmy is not used to this kind of attack, which is made difficult by way it is designed and open source nature where the attacker can easily uncover vulnerabilities, it took some times and learning to mitigate them. You can open new account in other instances or move if that’s too much inconvenience for you. No one is stopping you.
