<@ErikMesoy>
Hmmmm. Approved software at this power company has Python 2.7.
12:24
<@TheWatcher>
Running on Windows XP, no doubt.
12:24
< catalyst_>
hm, I think I'm not as proficient with databases as I would like to be
12:25
<&[R]>
Isn't that the latest in the 2.x line?
12:25
<@TheWatcher>
[R]: yes. And no longer supported or maintained since 1st Jan 2020
12:26
<&[R]>
So not super old
12:29
<@TheWatcher>
Well, no. Aside from the fact that people've been being told that 2.x support was being ended from 2006, and the 1st Jan 2020 end of support was announced in 2014. And now they're using a completely unmaintained, unsupported, no security fixes python.
12:30
<@ErikMesoy>
Running on Windows 10, fwiw.
12:30
<@ErikMesoy>
With the terrible new start menu.
12:31
<@ErikMesoy>
Half the company requires a security clearance to get into because power supply is important. I hope that half of the company is running newer versions, but I wouldn't count on it. >_>
12:37
<@ErikMesoy>
I have to manually apply for escalated admin privileges if I want to install software that isn't from the Approved Software List, but 'pip install' quietly installs packages. This does not feel safe, but I imagine pip might have a well-secured backend? Never looked into how the package registry is run. <_<
12:40
<&[R]>
Did they ever fix the 2/3 schism?
12:44
<&[R]>
" but I imagine pip might have a well-secured backend? Never looked into how the package registry is run." <-- presumably better than node.js' "let's let people query the database directly" npm
12:45
<@ErikMesoy>
Seeing as this company still provides 2, evidently the schism is not fixed. :P

That gets a little close to the Spectrum design that Amstrad derided as "a pregnant calculator"

<@TheWatcher>
It's acombined computer, keyboard, and finger warmer!

One of the two serious Spectrum emulators is the Free unix Spectrum Emulator (which also runs on Windows but is maybe not the best choice there)

The last time I checked on its bug page, half of them were confused people filing bugs about userspace filesystems
