My wife and I are both autistic. She has difficulty moderating the volume of her voice, and I'm volume sensitive. So far she's been unable to recognize when I'm having trouble, and I've been unable to stop being so sensitive. :/

I've tried wearing earplugs but I have trouble remembering to keep them in.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to reduce volume from someone when you're sensitive and they're loud without realizing it?

Utterly wild and hilarious, today is a Moog kind of day.

This is solved, I was being dumb. Please see second EDIT below

This isn't really language specific, but if it helps I'm using Python. I can get the parameters just fine with the Traitlets module, but I'm still a novice really and figuring out which patterns to use is challenging.

Say you have a bunch of command line parameters. Some are booleans, where their presence means True, absence means False. Other parameters must accept one text string, and others can be used multiple times to build a list of strings.

It feels inefficient/wrong to use a bunch of IF/THEN/ELSE statements to decide what to do with the parameters, and prone to edge case errors. Is there a pattern that would invoke the correct method based on the combination of input parameters?

Examples:

 undefined

    
app thing --dry-run --create --name=newname01 --name=newname02 --verbose

app thing --create --name=newname01 --name=newname02 --name=newname03

app job --cancel -i 01 -i 02 -i 03

When I submit a comment, the edit window stays open. I then get prompted to Stay or Leave the comment, even though it's already been submitted. Is there a way to disable that behaviour?

I am writing an object-oriented app to help our developers manage some cloud systems. I'd like to make the configuration information available to all the classes, but I'm not sure of a good way to do that. Everything I can think of seems to fall under the category of "global variables" which as far as I know is a Very Bad Thing.

I already have a logging Mixin class that enables logging for every class that inherits it, and I was wondering if that's the right way to approach the configuration data:

 python

    
class LoggingMixin:
    @classmethod
    @property
    def log(cls):
        return logging.getLogger(cls.__name__)

class TestClassA(LoggingMixin):
    def testmethod1(self):
        self.log.debug("debug message from test class A")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    logging.basicConfig(
        format="{created:<f} {levelname:>5s} {name}.{funcName:>8s} |{message}|",
        level=logging.DEBUG,
        style="{",
    )

    a = TestClassA()
    a.testmethod1()
