@arstechnica Measles is such a godless name. We prefer Faith Freckles.

If a kernel panic had a sound, what would it be?

    Python has for loop syntax with else clause. They also have a while-else construct too. Would you use it?

    Python code that shows for..else syntax: #!/usr/bin/python3 for n in range(2, 10): for x in range(2, n): if n % x == 0: print( n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x) break else: # loop fell through without finding a factor print(n, 'is a prime number')

    @nixCraft On the inner loop I''d only up to the square root of n because if it ain't prime by then it's never never gonna be prime.
