Hey everyone, I'm trying to implement a "slice" function but I'm not sure how to go with negative steps
Let's say we have (slice start end [step])
And
(slice alphabet 0 10) returns abcdefij
What should this
(slice alphabet 0 10 -1) return?
FWIW, #Python returns nothing for alphabet[0:14:-1]

Lessons from this week's removal of the #pkg_resources module:
- If you don't use the `--no-build-isolation` argument of `pip install`, then `--require-hashes` is only partly effective and your builds may break whenever incompatible changes are made to #setuptools or other build dependencies.
- If you use `--no-build-isolation`, you need multiple `pip install` calls: first for all the needed build dependencies (a.k.a. `setup_requires`), then for the packages you actually want.

Notepad++: счетчики выделенных слов в StatusBar (python скрипт)
Программист часто копирует и вставляет, переименовывает и рефакторит.Вот бы сразу видеть в статусной строке количество переменных или функции в редактируемом файле . Увы, стандартный поиск (Ctrl+F) требует лишние клики. Мой небольшой Python-скрипт для Notepad++ по дабл-клику отображает в Status-Bar количество вхождений , частичных или полных, с учетом регистра и без.

Instead of choosing which #Python function to run with if/elif/else, use a dispatch table — a dict with functions as values:
from operator import add, sub, mul
ops = {'+':add, '-':sub, '*':mul}
s = input('Enter +, -, or * : ')
r = ops[s](10, 20)
print(f'10 {s} 20 = {r}')

Dict Hash Collision DOS Slows Lookups From 1ms To 47 Seconds?!
HASH COLLISION DISASTER! Attacker crafts colliding keys! Dict becomes linked list! O(1)→O(n) lookup! 47 seconds per request! Complete outage! 470K users logged out! $2.3M lost! Infrastructure FIRED!

Some concrete thoughts: https://dev.to/adamghill/checking-django-settings-12g4.
I have prototype code for this, but wanted to get feedback about the ideas first. Might post in the Django forum eventually…
