    No source that I'm aware of provides a public API

Well that said there are a few; I quite like https://lyrics.ovh/

    It's really unfortunate that there isn't a single, high-quality reference source (with an API) for song lyrics, the way there is for artist/album metadata (MusicBrainz) or cover art (Cover Art Archive).

My gut tells me this is because labels (or even streaming giants) realised it's monetisable and thus will pursue any API that gets big enough :(

In short I'd say no

OBS is approaching ten years old though [1]...

This.

And related cause: A&R people listening to xyz's new album and judging it sounds "huge" / "phat" / "modern"... when actually it's just a bit louder than the other guys, but nobody's adjusting volumes between demos...

Something very close to my heart.

Here's an old but related site / campaign with lots of links too: https://www.turnmeup.org/

Wow - I was amazed at the sheer number of similar projects here, had no idea there was that much active in this space...

But Pycharm can (pretty much)!

Alt-enter over the would-be imported term to add an import, ctrl-alt-O to autoformat / autoremove (aka optimise) redundant ones.

You can then turn on folding to not see those imports much via Prefs -> Editor -> General -> Code Folding

...which is why I wish Black allowed more configuration. A team can often agree on a set of styles. Every team on the Python planet agreeing... now that's much harder

I guess the closing parens irk me the most e.g.

    assert outputs.get("foo.bar.baz", "default") == pytest.approx(
        time_recorder.time_taken, abs=0.0001
    )

I get why it's done that, but I just don't think it helps humans read. Part of the twisted beauty of PEP-008's narrow lines is that you're forced to extract (named) variables, or avoid overly indented code by extracting methods or applying higher level abstractions.

In the last few years I find devs are happier to format and push to "sort that problem out", leaving the readability benefit of that thought process lost.

TL;DR writing readable code isn't just about getting the spaces and brackets right...

Aside: I love a good linter, but as a long-time Python fan I find it sad that Black has so little configuration (yes, I know, but still) and moreover that it often produces code that no human Python dev I know would write...

Python was always meant to look concise / beautiful... (MyPy has also made this trickier too)

I feel `grep -e` (at least) should have been the default in retrospect

Living without those few "extensions" feels... empty

Love SSGs too! Came here to share praise for Hakyll[1], for people with an FP leaning.

Predictably, it's not easy to get started, but once you're into it the power of building your own arbitrary content "compilers" (and template extensions etc etc) is pretty impressive.

Umm we're talking about being young in the 60s here though right?

Agh, another site delivered over HTTP

> I honestly think it is a little stupid not to do any monetization.

This statement makes me sad.

The (original) problem is: for mature apps, it's often not just an apt / .deb that needs publishing.

It's also a RPMs, Arch AURs, Gentoo err things (let alone *BSD systems), and various flavours of repos / interfaces with packagers / downstream systems and release cycles...

Aside: I wish posts like this would be (re)titled "US inflation rises 6.8%..." etc.

I'm in no doubt that HN readership is mostly US-based, but it's definitely global...

And yet... thousands of people (including me) are doing it regularly.

No, it's not perfect but c'est la vie as they say

Same. Was quietly excited about some subtle-but-numerate upside of the Brexit long arc that, err, I hadn't seen yet, but no we're talking about the bits between fields (which are great I guess).

Yes, but what's the market share of that?

Surely this is more like... when Java 5 introduced Generics, and everything changed a lot (eventually)?

Yes! I always open the HN comments for Firefox release notes, knowing I'll read a long list of negativity (and much is fair)... but somehow I'm still a happy, thankful user since (almost) day #1.

Thank you FF team!

You can (one-time) set up domains to always load in certain containers, that works well for me.

Personally I like nearly all the (many) Quorn products I've eaten, and continue to eat on occasion, as a flexitarian. Esp the large (Best of British) sausages, the "chicken" pieces and to an extent the "mincemeat".

Can they improve? Yes, sure. But when cooked in good sauces / dishes they constantly impress for day-to-day meals.

Misleading title - the article is about Pegasus and doesn't one mention open-source anything...

Or Warp, the best-known Haskell web server: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/warp

I'm pretty sure not all HN readers are programmers...

Yes - but this isn't an either/or situation...

Fair point! The article mentioned his laptop but it's unclear to me.

Aside: It's something I worry about sometimes too on phones...
