This one is legit complicated. The Python Developers Survey is hugely influential, such that asking valid questions can also come off as push polling. Users learning about Python from AI chatbots are in for some very *very* nasty surprises, but wrong or right, that's what some folks do and it's worth measuring that.

Really, this one points me towards thinking that sociologists skilled in administering ethical survey methods should enter the chat.

What was your first source for learning Python? *This question is required.

Greg Chaitin on famous physicist John Wheeler asking Gödel about uncertainty: 'Well, one day I was at the Institute for Advanced Study, and I went to Gödel's office, and there was Gödel. I said "Professor Gödel, what connection do you see between your incompleteness theorem and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle?" And Gödel got angry and threw me out of his office!'

Whiteson and Warner tell this in their book. Others say that Gödel just changed the topic of the conversation (which it seems more plausible to me). Anyway, W & W explain that in physics you look for the axioms instead of building from them, which "sidesteps incompleteness". You are constantly adding extra axioms whenever you need them, which is something that is not seen as elegant, mathematically speaking.

According to the technician who came to our house, the reason the wifi has been bad lately is because of the big aquarium. Wifi signal doesnt go through the water. And so they suggested we upgrade to their new service offering and pay for additional boosters.

Sounds ... fishy?

I said, maybe it's just the modem that's broken.

So they replaced the modem (same model).

Now everything works like before.
