    I have cut my lips twice on these fuckers. Also just this week while pouring milk, the cap somehow slipped right under the stream and spilled the milk everywhere.

    Who loses their bottlecap?

    Also this makes it harder for kids to drink from bottles, since they can’t put their whole mouth around.

    I hate these shit stains with a passion.

    I am 99% sure, thia was all just a PR stunt by some bottle company. If they really wanted to do something for the environment, they would go for glass bottles again, since they can be recycled forever.


  • First off, cause you are programming under windows, a lot of things will be harder for you. As seen on your problems with Python.
    Most Linux installs have it right from the get-go and everything else is as simple. So giving directions for developers on other platforms might be much easier than what you had to go through. (Maybe use WSL?)

    Let’s get to your real question: How does one organize dependencies in a way easy for new contributors?
    Since you will use Python, I will use that as example.

    Most languages have a way to automagically import dependencies. Python has the requirements.txt file. Installing dependencies is then really easy. It is also a widely known way to do that, has lots of explanation online etc. so seasoned pythoneers will know what to do and younglings will get to know a good standard right away.

    Bonus tip: If you don’t have a GUI library yet, maybe also search for game engines. They provide all the necessary tools as well, oftentimes have good GUI add-ins and are (mostly) for all mayor platforms.



  • Well chrome should, yes. But they don’t.
    Then some JavaScript framework developers think “well this non-standard feature is neat, let’s use that everywhere” and then companies who use their framework (or a framwork dependent on it) can’t support all browsers.

    It’s a multilayered problem (as always) with lots of individually decisions that make sense, but don’t work out in the end (as always).
