📣 My next course, Introduction to Postgres, is going to be 100% free!
The kind folks at @supabase are sponsoring it so that everyone can learn how to use Postgres confidently.
But that's not all... I'm changing things up a bit. I'm making a bet.
Watch the video to see more!

We moved to Linux as the default for new dev hires at 37signals a while back. Our setup flow complexity collapsed. It's just so much easier to automate everything on top of Linux than on Mac. And for our work, Linux is also just way faster since we use Docker for DBs etc.
Linux desktop setup up and running with Omarchy, thanks to @dhh efforts and recommendations. Been on Macbook for years, seriously considering moving Dev team to Linux, all tools we use confirmed working on Omarchy. Combined with Beelink SER8 its a powerful setup at a fraction of the cost. Way more flexible single keystroke context switching between project envs with Hyprland. 👌

I didn’t know this worked outside of type hints.
Are there any benefits compared to using a tuple of types in isinstance?
Since Python 3.10 you can use the pipe operator to combine types – this creates a type union.
This can be used, for example, when you want to check if a value belongs to one of 2+ types with `isinstance`.
Here's an example 👇
ALT Diagram showing the Python 3.10+ syntactic feature that allows you to combine types with the operator pipe |. Full example source code: def is_number(x): return isinstance(x, int | float | complex) print(is_number(34)) # True print(is_number("hey")) # False
