Mypy alternatives
by Dan Stromberg Feb. 23, 2023

Feb. 23, 2023

Hello people. I've used Mypy and liked it in combination with MonkeyType. I've heard there are alternatives to Mypy that are faster, and I'm looking at using something like this on a 457,000 line project. Are there equivalents to MonkeyType that will work with these alternatives to Mypy? And has Mypy become the defacto standard for how type annotations should look? That is, are there other tools that assume Mypy's format too, and does most doc about type annotations assume Mypy's style? Thanks! PS: I sent this to python-list first five days ago, but didn't get a single reply.

Black and MonkeyType
by Dan Stromberg July 31, 2022

July 31, 2022

Hello folks. If you have a project you want to eventually run through both Black and MonkeyType, is there any advantage to running Black first? IOW, is MonkeyType less likely to get confused by Black-formatted code than by inconsistently multiple-humans-formatted code? Also, I'm hearing that Black does before-and-after AST's to make sure no bugs are introduced. Does MonkeyType do anything like this? Thanks.

python3 -b?
by Dan Stromberg July 20, 2022

July 20, 2022

Hi folks. I've been porting things from Python2 to Python3 for a while, but I just found out today about python3's -b option, which emits a warning when comparing str to bytes (or vice versa), or when converting bytes to str using the str initializer. I noticed that it also seems to even help with dictionary keys - nice. My question is: if -b is no longer detecting things to warn about, how much does that say about how far along your str-vs-bytes-correctness is? Thanks.

DocsQA powered by Jina AI Intelligent, automatic Q&A bots for software documentation Hello there, I am Sofia, a Community Builder at Jina AI - a creator of an open-source neural search framework. We want to get in touch with more open-source project owners and see what we can do to help to attract more developers. We want to bring up the new solutions we developed with our neural search technology that can provide a better user experience when they need to look for answers from your documentation. Research (https://octoverse.github.com/creating-documentation/) shows that easy-to-source documentation boosts productivity by up to 50%! We found your project on Github and were captivated by the idea. Upon viewing your documentation, however, we identified a key issue: efficiently searching for answers. We want to give you free access to the closed beta of DocsQA - a fully automated, intelligent question-answering service powered by Jina AI (https://github.com/jina-ai/jina) that helps you improve documentation and learn about your users. You can learn more about DocsQA and Jina AI (https://jina.ai/) and join the closed beta by following the presentation (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R1kS6gViqoPgMFjtSz_4qplVgeWr-jlA/view?usp=…) I've attached.

For your entertainment - some spam this list regularly receives
by Ian Stapleton Cordasco July 14, 2022

July 14, 2022

This is a nice, high-quality list (or so I like to think). But I don't think I've shared with y'all just how much spam I end up keeping off the list by keeping it moderated. This one keeps trying to send to this, and it just is such low quality phishing I thought you all might be entertained. Also, if anyone has time to help get rid of the ~daily spam, let me know and I'll be happy to make you a moderator. Cheers, Ian Sent from my phone with my typo-happy thumbs.

Inquiry:flake8 data collection
by WATANABE YUKA XMPIZ/渡邊憂花X MPIZ July 7, 2022

July 7, 2022

Hi team, I’m Yuka Watanabe, information security staff member from Showadenko K.K. in Japan. Our blanch are considering the use of flake8 for their research and development, so I’m checking security compliance of flake8 prior to introduction. Could you answer the following questions? 1. Does flake8 software collect any data from user’s environment? 2. If yes, why flake8 collects the data, and how processes the data? I appreciate your cooperation. Best Regards, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 昭和電工　サイバーリスク管理部　情報セキュリティ担当（アクセンチュア所属） Information Security Team, Cyber Risk Management Dept, Showa Denko K.K. 渡邊　憂花 / Yuka Watanabe watanabe.yuka.xmpiz(a)showadenko.com<mailto:watanabe.yuka.xmpiz@showadenko.com> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These 2 errors of pylint are wrong (W0104)
by Dedeco Balaco July 2, 2022

Hello, please reply to my address too, I am not subscribed to the mailing list. Click "reply all" or add my address when you reply to this message. min.py:41:4: W0104: Statement seems to have no effect (pointless-statement) min.py:42:4: W0104: Statement seems to have no effect (pointless-statement) for the code # This is line 39 try: bd.executemany ( "INSERT INTO [...]", data ) print( "- [...]" ) con.commit() print( "- [...]" ) con.close() print( "- [...]" ) sys.exit( 0 ) print( "- after sys.exit(0)" ) except: print( "- exc!" ) print( sys.exc_info() ) con.close() sys.exit( 2 ) *pylint *is saying that lines 41 and 42 are pointless, which is obviously false. So, this is a bug in it. I do not want to write that call in only one line to make my code easier to be read and understood. What you think?
