The content of the email is very laissez-faire, e.g. "we legally have to send these ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "

I collect these like pokemon 🙃

Especially because it’s to a newbie, who stands to benefit the most from using an OS with more user share and more available online resources.

You should look at how OPs example works first maybe

The python interpreter isn’t parsing comments, the add() function is just getting the current line number from the call stack context, and using a regex to spit out the numbers to the right of the “#” on the current executing line of the source code.

Do you stay away from C++ too? You can do this there too

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/source_location/line

This stuff is normally used for creating human readable error messages. E.g. printing the line of your code that actually set off the exception

The add function in the example above probably traverses the call stack to see what line of the script is currently being executed by the interpreter, then reads in that line in the original script, parses the comment, and subs in the values in the function call.

This functionality exists so when you get a traceback you can see what line of code triggered it in the error message

Abolishing the monarchy would involve rewriting the constitution - if that was happening every province would want to slip in their own terms - Quebec would want specific French language rights and autonomy and if Quebec got their way Alberta would want something similar. We successfully altered the constitution back in 1982 - it took 2 years and the country almost blew up over it.

Basically it would be a total shit show. Considering the impact the monarchy has on our day to day life (basically zero) it’s easier to just let sleeping dogs lie

More, but not way more - they would be licensing window IoT, not a full blown OS, and they wouldn’t be paying OTC retail rates for it.

It’s unavoidable - once the cheese gets hot enough the steam will either force the liquid cheese out of existing holes, or it will make its own holes.

Make sure they are fresh out of the freezer when you put them in, as this lets the outside crisp up more before the inside becomes lava. Once you get close to the prescribed cooking time, you need to just sit in front of the oven door and watch them, and as soon as 2-3 break open, take the whole tray out

The feature is explicit sync, which is a brand new graphics stack API that would fix some issues with nvidia rendering under Wayland.

It’s not a big deal, canonical basically said ‘this isn’t a bug fix or security patch, it’s not getting backported into our LTS release’ - so if you want it you have to install GNOME/mutter from source, switch operating systems, or just wait a few months for the next Ubuntu release

GNOME said this update is a minor bug fix (point release)

Canonical said this is actually a major feature update, and doesn’t want to backport it into its LTS repositories
