Deceptively put PNG header over some video stream. Some ppl took advantage of this to upload their large files to some popular social media sites (which keep PNG files).
PySide? 2? 6?
Currently I revisited some GUI programming for some weekends project with some friends at https://github.com/jendralhxr/uget2/. Our go-to python guy used to like guizero, but recently he is trying out tkinter and customTkinter. I have never really tried Tk and later found that customTkinter model-view-controller model is not as fluid as I experienced with Qt.
Hence, I revisited the community-official Qt-Python affairs: (saner person would just call these bindings instead)
- https://pypi.org/project/PySide/ (for Qt 4.8, it's okay since it was the first attempt)
- https://pypi.org/project/PySide2/ (for Qt 5.x, but why 2 as for 5?)
- https://pypi.org/project/PySide6/ (for Qt 6.x)
Thankfully, the official-official version has better naming scheme that is self-explanatony:
But this version was said to be lagged for a while during Qt 5 term, albeit started earlier during the Qt 4 days. Company stuff, I guess.
All the projects are good with wonderful people working behind/on them. But this is what I don't really like with python people: not really considering how to pass on legacies (i.e. not quite respecting legacy code base, compatibility issues with third-party libraries, reluctance to re-study/re-write the code, and the inertial needs to keep the business going with developmental code).
I guess as end user, we can use them wisely and adapt to changes, swiftly.
what author? what email?
This paper looks indeed weird: 10.1142/S1793431120500013. The content is (kinda) okay: alternative alloy for RC cylindrical bridge pier which helps bridge by flexibly cope with seismic load. But the problem is in the list of authors. The last listed author (Nailiang Xiang) uses email address of supposedly another person (Ko Noryo).
Those two are actually the same person. It is his Japanese pseudonym. What gives
