Hahaha, that Hyndman story will never get old.
FWIW, based on much informal polling, the most common intuition on the
topic stems from elementary education: a median of an even-numbered set is
the mean of the two central values. So, linear-weighted average on
discontinuities seems to be least surp

That would be amazing! If there's anything I can do to help make that
happen, please let me know. It'll almost certainly save that much time for
me alone down the line, anyway :)

I didn't interpret the initial email as wanting an error on *all* circular
imports. Merely those which are unresolvable. I've definitely helped people
diagnose circular imports and wished there was an error that called that
out programmatically, even if it's just a string admonition to check for

That's already valid dict syntax.
>>> dict(default=int)
{'default': }
Generally that in itself makes this a no go.

Pretty sure machine epsilon is in the sys module's float_info object. Or
are you saying it would be handy to alias sys.float_info.ep

I'm all for adding more featureful data structures. At the risk of
confusing Nick's folks, I think it's possible to do even better than
Sorted/Ordered for many collections. In my experience, the simple Ordered
trait alone was not enough of a feature improvement over the simpler
builtin, leading me
I tend to agree with Arek. I've been bitten multiple times, including once
yesterday, because shuffle works in place, when I really expect a
sorted()-like behavior for a standalone function like that.
