minus-square@zero@lemm.eelinkfedilink25•11 months agoAs a software developer, I actually use “truthy” and “falsy” pretty regularly for “the computer thinks this value is true/false”
minus-square@model_tar_gz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink4•11 months agoJust remember that even though None is Falsy, an array of Nones is Truthy. Gets me every time. I fucking understand it logically (because the array itself exists) but damnit if I can make my lizard brain comprehend it while coding it.

minus-square@model_tar_gz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•11 months agoYup you’re more right than I was. An empty array is still Falsy even though it exists. I accept the correction.
