Ancestry

gollark: It would be neat if they were cryptographically signed too, but it turns out I have no idea what actual algorithm the potatOS ECC library is implementing, oops.
gollark: So, progress on the potatoupdates™ system, I now have a script generating manifest files which are deterministically generated from the exact contents of a PotatOS version™.
gollark: > multiprocessing.pool objects have internal resources that need to be properly managed (like any other resource) by using the pool as a context manager or by calling close() and terminate() manually. Failure to do this can lead to the process hanging on finalization.> Note that is not correct to rely on the garbage colletor to destroy the pool as CPython does not assure that the finalizer of the pool will be called (see object.__del__() for more information).Great abstraction there, Python. Really great.
gollark: No, I mean I was reading from underneath the line it highlighted, which was the POST documentation.
gollark: Oh, never mind, the link was just being confusing.
