which is better?

Just lost an hour mystified that something I was doing did not work only to realize that the file I was executing was running a copy of the script I had modified at not the original

@monorail I actually don't know any specifics about what __contains__ does so I don't know what this means

@monorail to be fair a lot of dunderscore shit is fucked up and weird in python (i love dunderscore python shit)

@monorail something something you're a girl of many hats

My toxic is that I like the smell of cigarette smoke

I'm not sure how useful monads are in any context where a language doesn't provide syntactical sugar for the usage

The practical benefits of a monad are not distinguishable from this chaining from the point of view of someone using a library (unless you exposed the bind/return function to the user)

It can allow some elegant code reuse for implementers I suppose

But it's such a complicated concept for something that it is ultimately a tertiary tenet of functional programming

On the other hand I do like them because they are Cool and Interesting

@aescling I haven't found significant ones

There is an old stackexchange post expressing confusion at why clang used to allowed you to use the & operator on xvalues--this was identified as a bug in the discussion and is no longer in the compiler

I have found shells online which return prvalues in situations that should return xvalues, but I don't know what compilers they use

@wallhackio burritos have culture where·as wraps are a symbol of white suburbia

It's really cool how easy it is to find c++ compilers that do not adhere to value category standards
