  • Haven’t looked much at the code, but not using type annotations in a large python project in 2025 sounds a bit suspect.

    As for tests, meh. Trying to test and catch errors in stateful processes is a losing cause, so I sort of get it, at least for a language like python. It’s better to focus on making it fault tolerant. Let it crash and just restart the process. If it’s a logical error, it should be easy to detect. No idea how fault tolerant piefed is designed to be though.

    1000+ line files with no type hints doesn’t sound all that great though, some people thrive in the chaos I suppose.

    The feedback is a bit harsh though, and doesn’t really inform the developers of why these issues can be deal breakers for some.

  • Rice and onions are just about the only thing I have that last more than a few days. I don’t buy frozen food as I’ll just buy what I need at the store, 90% of my diet is just bread, eggs, chicken and rice, and 1.4kg of chicken is gone within 2-3 days.

    You could always just lower your caloric intake if food became scarce.

    The imo more interesting thing would be fresh water.

    Tap water quality is great in Norway so water is something I never buy unless I forgot to fill up a bottle on a road trip. I don’t really know anyone other soda addicts that keep liquid stored at notable quantities.
