New #physics video - modeling elastics, inelastic, and plain collisions with #vpython #python
@glyph @hynek it'd be interesting IMO to see the breakdown of how many people use YouTube by level of experience. My hypothesis is that there's a (positive) correlation between level of experience and preference for written documentation over video documentation - I think videos are reasonably well suited for tutorials (if you are the type of person who can learn from a video at all) but poorly suited for the reference documentation that more experienced devs are more likely to use.
Okay so I am putatively a #Python #ThoughtLeader ™ so perhaps I should go through and give this a non-jokey read-through, and share some impressions: https://lp.jetbrains.com/python-developers-survey-2024/
I really appreciate that they do these every year.
