A snapchat style image of someone holding a tiny bear character named Helpy, who looks annoyed. the caption reads "He's Mad cuz I'm holding him like a burger... [in all caps] THEN DON'T BE BURGER SHAPED." There is a watermark that says IceTigerKitten

If you’re confused by what @wendynather means by “helpy”, observe Corrie “helping” to hold down the stack of cards I’d really like to practice my calligraphy on.

A dilute calico cat is in loaf position surrounded by (and on top of) calligraphy supplies

For example, telling someone a specific paragraph confused you & suggesting how to improve it. That is helpful not helpy. Or if you know of previous articles making the point better, do supply links which could be added to the post! Only suggesting these articles exist is '#helpy'. I deeply appreciate people being helpful. But 'helpy' is pure frustration. 2/2

5/5 right answers on today's #HelPy quiz and 3rd place by timing. 🎉 🏆 #python 🐍

Our April meetup is under way, thank you to Reaktor and @jks for hosting from their rooftop office!

On my way to speak at #HelPy meetup on exploratory unit testing. There is a theme to stuff I talk about now and it seems to be that the bar for ‘testing’ can be too low. I know weird things of things I’ve tested. Too many don’t know even the basics. Learning is at the heart of #ExploratoryTesting.
