For not having to call 'source ...' in a Dockerfile, if you use the python executable from the virtualenv directly, then it will be as if you've activated that virtualenv.

This works because of the relative path to the pyenv.cfg file.

I wonder if you can, under GDPR, request that all your data is deleted and then create a new account. Not allowing you to create a new account could be argued as a violation of GDPR as it would mean that they kept personally identifiable data about you.

Is there an easy way to get that list for a package?
Re:Linux Mint drops Ubuntu Snap packages on Thursday July 09, 2020 @08:46AM (#23779572)
The Ubuntu podcast has a very recent episode about this: https://ubuntupodcast.org/2020/06/25/s13e14-ace-of-spades/

The conversation around snaps starts at 5:20.

It sounded to me that they genuinely tried to put themselves in both side's shoes.

Autobiographic memory and an autobiography are two different things
Re:Spaced Repetition on Saturday May 04, 2019 @03:25PM (#19828653)
Been using space repetition since 2013. It's unbelievably useful. Wrote about it in my blog with examples: https://www.blinkingcaret.com/2016/05/04/hack-your-brain-lea...
Currently the only implementation available is for .Net through the ElectronCgi.DotNet nuget package, but there's no reason for this not to work with other languages/runtimes (it relies on stdin/stdout that is available in all processes).

Did you have a particular language/runtime in mind?

I've been using nginx as a reverse proxy to kestrel in Linux. Has been working great for me

Re:Anki: Memorization with Spaced Learning on Sunday August 26, 2018 @05:53PM (#17848147)
I've been using Anki since 2013 (almost 5 years). One really nice thing about Anki is that it has analytics. I currently have 4532 cards and my numbers are 99.18% correct answers for "Learning" (very young) cards, 98.44% for Young cards and 92.52% for Mature cards. No way I would be able to remember over 4000 pieces of information without spaced repetition. I truly believe this is the best learning "hack" there is. I've wrote about my experience here: https://www.blinkingcaret.com/2016/05/04/hack-your-brain-lea...

If I could only give one advice to someone about improving their learning skills, it would be to learn about spaced repetition
