As one of the PM's (probably the last one) you are referring was mine, I answer your message publicly too.
I thought you were a woman, then I saw Sander speaking about you as "he", so I just wanted to know for the sick of clarity.
Mental situation on my side:
About the "new" genders that have been popping lately... well, for me gender is a phyisical caracteristic. I did like to think of gender in a binary form (male or female), then science came and made possible to change it with an operation, nice... no problem at all. If you feel a male, change it to a male, if you feel a female change it to female. I can even accept the mixed status of transexuals. But all the rest are for me sexual orientation, not a gender.
Said that...
I don't care any little about sexual orientation. I have friends hetero-, homo- and bi-, and even know people self- and a-sexual, and a couple that hit almost all statistics (she was he, and he was she, they got together and adopted a kid).
In conclusion: Everyone can do whatever they want to do with whoever want to do, as long as it is with mutual knowledge and consent and don't disturb anyone on purpose.
It was just that I know people too, that are pretty sensible to how they are called (not saying that you are) so when I don't know it for sure and / or get confused I prefer to ask directly, before I offend someone without intention.

I think I will personally opt for the easiest option... I will use your nick avoiding pronouns, that's it.

i appreciate the ask. if you thought i was a women, i'd suggest using "she" if you really must use a pronoun. just a suggestion, if only to avoid having to make necessary adjustments.

As I said... the easiest is to use "you" (no gender) in direct conversation or "honey" / "code witch" if I am speaking of you.

Henceforth I shall use "it", or maybe "they / them"!

THis is my rant on Python as I'm helping someone learn it for use in ML.
Did you know that a Python variable declared in the .py file is global to that file?
For example:
def printGlobal():
print(str(extra))
extra = 35
printGlobal()
extra = "Python are stupid."
class Arsinine:
def __init__(self):
print(extra)
a = Arsinine()
Imagine if that .py file grew to be even just long enough to be off the screen. You might do something else with the extra variable and create odd issues since it is global.
Or, if there is more than one dev working on the code.
It's quite terrible.
Objects are for the express point of encapsulation, but you don't get that here.
I know, the class should be created in another file and all that.

I do not know what kind of mind created this language and why you would want everything on the global scope like that. But here is a snapshot of comment from SO who are are chiming in that globals are not dangerous...
*Are these people devs[^]? Do they understand anything?
I guess they've all been fortunate enough to only work on their own code.
Yes, yes, anything can be used properly or improperly, but this makes it a bit difficult to use it properly. Probably proof that Python is a kiddie language that isn't concerned about creating larger programs. (I'm expecting to receive the fire after that comment.)

I think that's what they call "soft trolling".

If you compare it to Eddy Vluggen's trolling, I think you'll agree that it's soft.
