Awesome deal. Thank you very much for this one! I am busy redeeming everything. Some stuff might not be useful for customers outside of the US. Maybe "geographic deals" might be an interesting idea for a future bundle? :)
Granted, one can circumvent a lot of nonsense on reddit by carefully selecting and managing subreddit subscriptions but in the end I find myself unsubscribing from more and more reddits over time.
I'm glad you liked it. i've recently discovered the awesomeness of generators, and I'm starting to use them a lot in my code. I don't see them a lot in other people's code that I read, so I figure I'd spread the word a bit.
Although I agree it was an interesting read and I do like this language feature, I think generators should be used with caution since they might detract from the code's readability (especially generator expressions). Some async libraries like dieselweb just use them too much for my taste.
Generators actually allow you to decouple code in more ways than normal functions and classes let you. See the "Why functional programming matters" paper, or the more practical presentation here:
Wow, excellent resource, definitely a must-read. However, I still stand by my opinion that there are more intuitive ways to control flow in python other than generator tricks.
If SO was smart they would write an advanced search form that basically just translates into google compatible syntax and forwards it to google (assuming there are no legal issues with this.) Are there legal issues with this, is this a violation of the google TOS??
Thanks for writing such a great book. One of the treasures in my (ever growing) collection and I am even citing it in one of my papers I currently write :)
