I also now know about LibreWolf, a custom version of Firefox, focused on privacy, security and freedom...

So it seems that people are not happy about the addition of AI features in Firefox...

And honestly, I think AI in Mozilla products is a bug, so...

Mozilla has made a "Pledge for a Healthy Internet" and I don't think that includes forcing us to use AI.

You can let Mozilla know that you are against them adding AI to their products.

@[email protected] Yeah, I think I just need to fix my editor (I'm using Pulsar) and get used to the virtualenv stuff. I didn't seem to need to worry about things 5 years ago, the last time I dove into Python, but hey, things change!

@jim @atzanteol I come from the land of Perl! I seem to have more issues with white space, tabs,and spaces than I do with brackets and semicolons.

 

Two things are driving me mad about Python...

  1. Repeatedly getting "TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation" which may have something to do with my editor...

  2. Consistently having issues installing modules. It seems to fail most of the time. I don't know if it's a homebrew thing or something else stupid I am doing.

@[email protected] Typically when I learn a new language I end up writing lots of little example code and dumping it all into a folder so I can reference it later. But yeah, searching online is certainly helpful nowadays.

@[email protected] Ha! Around 1994/1995 I printed like 50 pages (at work) of a Perl manual and would read it offline because that was the world back then.

 

I'm really enjoying learning more Python. I'm in that stage where I need to do something and have to look up how to do it in Python (as compared to other languages) and it mostly makes sense and it works.
