On: PEP 762 – REPL-acing the default REPL

[somat]

I am curious about your suffixes.

I mean, I understand the post fine, but I have never seen the units (Mo, mo) before and am wondering where they came from.

I would guess mo is megabytes(megaoctets?) and Mo is gigabytes(is ipython really 15GB? yikes)

[Numerlor → somat]

I think I remember seeing something about MB=Mo in french, the casing is probably safe to ignore in the gp as ipython is definitely not 15gb

[mimischi → somat]

Looks like it’s octets: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_(computing)

[BiteCode_dev → somat]

yeah sorry mb, french comming out

[wodenokoto → BiteCode_dev]

OT, but I love your newsletter!

Didn’t notice your username until you wrote “French”

That's lovely to hear.

It's great hearing it in general, but given the HN community is picky, it feels even better.
