#Python limitation: The functools.cached_property() decorator blocks parallel calculation of cached values, even for *distinct* instances of the same class. This makes it completely unsuitable for I/O bound methods in a threaded environment. https://t.co/UmSh7k1Vkd 1 of 4

@DrSilviaMilana @IshatReza I worked with one woman and I struggled with her accent. I'd never heard one like it. Part Cantonese but not. I eventually learned that she was profoundly deaf. Without the ability to hear, she had learned to speak in Cantonese and THEN English. Wow. She was lip reading.

Oh super good to know!
@PyLadiesChicago #IWD Python uses reStructuredText as documentation, since 2002, before markdown existed. PEP 287 is the proposal for adopting rst as Python docstring format. rst since then has been used widely within Python community for documentation.
