If the elements of the list don't form a total order, then sort makes NO
promises about the data returned, other than it is the input data in
some orde

Hi Rajeev and others
Thanks for your responses. I completely overlooked the simple fact
that the conditions are evaluated to boolean values and as such can be
stored in variables.
In the hindsight there may perhaps be a couple of (far-fetched) merits
to my proposal (like useful in conditions with
This isn't a terrible use of the walrus operator either.
if blue_20 := (color==BLUE and count==20) or red_5 := (color==RED and
count%5==0)
rotate_the_wheel() # Common to the two sub-conditions
if blue_20: # First sub-condition
set_signal()
if red_5: # Second sub-condition

Mailman issues, aside, thanks for doing this!
I'd really love to see

I ran into a problem which, according to a google search is not that
uncommon:
concurrent.futures ThreadPoolExecutor, installs an exit handler
preventing program exit if any of the jobs it is running is blocked. (Which
might be a surprising behaviour to someone using those).
It is possible to

initialisation would allow to let it add its workers in this dict rather
than the default
Guido is correct as we don't directly control the software. It's probably a
bug with Mailman 3/Hyperkitty.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. :)
In future, if you can establish to some degree that:
1) The feature isn't already available (if you're unsure, try python-list
as suggested above)
2) It has some realistic use cases
3) It hasn't b
