I think feedback is a minor point, much more important in my mind is the morale-boost you get from working in the office alongside colleagues that in my experience is completely missing from remote-work

I quit drinking a year ago because I was experiencing severe anxiety and depression and that was a part of my regiment to help myself out of the hole. I think what helps is having a goal other than just quitting. For me, that was trying to feel good again. I had some alcohol a few days ago for the first time in a year and noticed anxiety a few hours later, so now I have no desire to return to drinking.
How do you get videos to 3-4x speed? I find most video players only allow up to 2x speed?
There are browser extensions that do this

it's really not that hard that's just meat propaganda. Been vegan 10 years and still somehow manage to boulder at a high level without even thinking about my diet
That’s great for you, but it’s quite common for vegans to suffer from b12 deficiency. And that’s just a commonly tested one but meat also contains iron, taurine, creatine, and a lot more that is hard to get from non meat sources. Personally I went low meat (not even close to vegan) and suffered. My b12 was low normal, yet I definitely felt the effects.

When I was a Python dev, I never saw that happen in ten years or so of work. Pip freeze and virtualenv just worked for me.
I will say, though, that this only accounts for times where you’re not upgrading dependencies. Where I’ve always run into issues in Python was when I decided to upgrade a dependency and eventually trigger some impossible mess.
Piptools [1] resolves this by having a requirements.in file where you specify your top level dependencies, doing the lookup and merging of dependency versions and then generating a requirements.txt lock file. Honestly it’s the easiest and least complex of Python’s dependency tools that just gets out of your way instead of mandating a totally separate workflow a la Poetry.
This is very good timing for me, I just left my python dev job and am starting a job where they use Ruby. I’m very excited to be using Ruby again, it’s a much nicer language to use for a variety of reasons I can’t possibly enumerate. Ruby’s stdlib and surrounding documentation is pristine, I vividly remember being appalled when trying Python for the first time and thinking where the rest of it was. The major issue I find with Ruby (and that I saw mentioned elsewhere in this thread) are imports / requires, which is much too magical in Ruby; Python’s import is way saner

Not OP, but in our case, there was a package that had a dependency for python3.6 but not for python3.8.
Our production environment was python3.6. Devs rebuilt the requirements.txt with python3.8.
When we attempted to use the requirements.txt with python3.6, we couldn't because a package was missing (and we installed with `--require-hashes`). The dependency was `importlib-metadata` iirc.
But googling around, here's an example of a package that has dependencies that changed based on the python version: https://github.com/pypa/pep517/blob/main/pyproject.toml#L13 .
In our case, we just made sure to rebuild the requirements.txt with the version that matched our production; not sure if there's a "nice" way to support multiple versions with pip-tools.
As you discovered, the actual fix is making sure your production and development python environments match. As for platform discrepancies, docker helps with this

If it wasn't for the typing module, I would just use the superior alternative which is ruby.
Yep! Ruby’s typing is wayyy more cumbersome than Python’s unfortunately

>fueling your body to excess with a lot of nutrients
A commonly held myth about eating is that fueling the body with an excess of (micro)nutrients is healthier than fueling the body with an adequate amount of micro nutrients. It is not healthier, it is exactly the same (and then becomes toxic again in excess!)
And as you know, fueling the body with excess macronutrients is unhealthy. Indeed, eating a diet poor or absent in micronutrients is bad for you, but also quite rare.
I don’t think it’s quite as rare as you think. I don’t have sources to back this up at the moment but some common deficiencies include vitamin D, b12, magnesium, zinc, sulphur. Our modern practices have denuded the soil, plants and animals of a lot of their nutrients so nowadays it’s indeed hard to be at good levels of nutrients from diet
