python

I always love to learn about new programming paradigms to make my expression potential better. One such paradigm that I've read about lately is about programming in pipelines. The idea in itself shouldn't be anything new (it's quite old and much talked about literature), but the way you can do this in python with generators and coroutines is really empowering.

I just listened to this presentation by Avery Pennarun about how Python can be very fast if you use the appropriate techniques, and how those techniques are actually graceful ones.
