  1. If the result is constant given the arguments, or if the function doesn't have arguments at all, just use `lru_cache`. https://docs.python.org/3/library/functools.html#functools.lru_cache
  2. I forgot to reply to this. For my workloads RAM size is important, and while I could go without it, for more 150 bucks it worth it. I understand that might not be the case for most people. I specifically chose 2x32GB too so that I can upgrade later, but again, my use-case is an outlier.
  3. I ended up going with that build but with a Fractal Meshify C. Thanks!
  4. It is not really overkill for my application. I often have to compile big projects and am bottle-necked by the CPU. I have access to a shared EPYC 7502P build server, and in several situations it is still slow for the amount of work I need to do. The price/value in my situation, which admittedly is not very common, is worth it Perhaps, but I wanted to keep the noise super low. My multicore usage is not continuous, so I don't think it will build up heat often. I need the power for like 1 or 2 min and when done I generally don't need it again for a little bit. I will still look into it anyway. I am a bit limited with options because my local retailers don't carry that much. I changed it to a 5000D Airflow, which is a bit more expensive but seems to be a fair bit better.
  5. Hey all, I am looking for someone to sanity check my build, and perhaps suggest possible improvements. Budget (including currency): Unlimited as long as it has good value Country: Portugal Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Programming (multicore heavy), Streaming Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I have a CoolerMaster Masterwatt 750 (750W PSU), Radeon RX 5700 XT Sapphire Nitro+, and drives (M.2, and HD) from my current build. Here is what I am planning to get: CPU: Ryzen 9 5950X Motherboard: Gigabyte X570S Aorus Pro AX Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 Memory: Kingston Fury 64GB (2x32GB) DDR4-3600MHz CL18 Case: Corsair Carbide 275R Any thoughts?
  6. You can use the operator module. operator_actions = { '+': operator.add, '-': operator.sub, '*': operator.mul, '/': operator.truediv, '%': operator.mod, } num1 = input('num1: ') operator = input('operator: ') num2 = input('num2: ') print(operator_actions[operator](num1, num2))
  7. I think the most important thing is to get a temperature controlled iron. I have a clone T12 station from Aliexpress and a Pinecil. For hobbyists beginners, I would recommend the Pinecil, it's fairly cheap and very good quality, I think it beats off any other easily available retail product. It also comes with a B2 tip, which is much better than the usual conical ones. I also really found the C4 tip extremely useful, if you want to spend a couple more bucks. Btw, you can get tips off Aliexpress for ~5$. If you are going to solder smaller stuff, like SMD, I would definitely recommend getting some flux, but if you are only gonna work on through hole stuff, that is not necessary. https://pine64.com/product/pinecil-smart-mini-portable-soldering-iron/
  8. No, but it will, depending on your setup, have a lower overhead just for running the system. It should be supported yes, you should have roughly the same experience if the gesture detection comes from the hardware itself. Hardware support can be a bit hit or miss.
  9. I am one of the maintainers of libratbag, I have contacted @Corsair Nick to see if they would be able to provide documentation for me to implement drivers for Corsair devices but haven't heard anything back. Adding the drivers is super easy but I don't have hardware, hence the need for the documentation.
  10. That patch is from 2013 and has been upstreamed, you don't need to do anything.
  11. Sound like you want to setup a bridge. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Libvirt#Networks
  12. Not really, as I said in the reply above, Manajaro is Arch without the hassle of a manual installation. After you install your system it should be essentially the same. Arch also ships 5.4. Arch ships stable software so I don't see your point here. Manjaro only delays Arch packages by 2 weeks IIRC.
  13. Arch only takes time to install. Manjaro is basically Arch with delayed repositories. Maintaining an Arch or Manjaro installation should be essentially the same. The only thing is that Arch takes a little bit more time to install, but this has a good reason, you setup everything yourself, so you know what is actually going on with your computer.
