Encapsulating the atrocity of umask handling with Python's walrus operator:
os.umask(current_umask := os.umask(0))
This isn't clearly *better*, but at least it's clearly shorter. Without `:=`, we'd need two lines:
current_umask = os.umask(0)
os.umask(current_umask)
Note: The awkwardness is a necessary consequence of how POSIX handles umask. Also, neither version is threadsafe.

Tuntuu siltä, että #rolling-distroihin käynyt virta on tyystin tappanut perinteiset vakaat jakelut. Enää #Debian ja #UbuntuLTS ovat jäljellä, ja jälkimmäisessä on niin paljon inhottavaa (#Snap, outo #umask) josta eroonpääsy on tuskallista, ettei millään hotsittaisi.
