i'm only curious as i just got here and after a good 4 hours I've recieved no response to one of my own. I realize sometimes it takes a while for people to reach a concrete solution to a problem, but i've not been asked for clarification or anything on it either so maybe it just takes days for anything on this forum to get noticed or maybe there's some setting whereas my question cannot be seen because i'm new.
this is the place for those kinds of questions right?

Answers are coming from people, who do it voluntary in their spare time...
It is also possible that nobody has an answer at the present time...

Well, it's a Sunday so most of the Western world is not working. It's also early in the morning here, and late night for the US so that doesn't help you get an instant response.
Then there is the question itself:
Quote: How do I calculate the wind direction and speed based on 2 pressure fronts using python's math module?
hi thank you for checking out my question, it's a really simple question but i'd like to know how to calculate the wind direction and speed of that wind given external factors such as pressure fronts. any help on this matter would be appreciated.
What I have tried:
so far I haven't tried anything, i'm merely at this point testing the community and how it will react as this is my first post. i came from stack overflow and was hoping for a an alternative to that community as it has become far more strict, ridiculous, and in general is just kinda dead and useless now.
It's vague, but specialized - you need Python developers who work with meteorology to read it before you get a reply. And adding "so far I haven't tried anything" doesn't help you at all because it generally comes over as "I can't be bothered, do my work for me". And there is no detail at all!
Then you go on to slag off SO which (although I might agree with the sentiment) isn't a polite thing to do, even if they are a "competitor site".
So ... you want "your work done for you in a specialised area, in a specific language, and if you don't get it you'll slag CP off somewhere else" is the way your question reads. That may not be how you meant to write it but that's certainly how I read it!
Would you want to spend your personal time to answer such a question, even if you could?

It depends on many factors.
For instance posting a proper 'programming question' could speed up the process.

I've got a list of all previous words and it isn't in there (well it is now)

You are right of course...
But I was so sure, that I went and took a look into the code of Wordle...
Yes - I know tomorrow's solution 
The interesting thing that Wordle (as today) accepts 10665* words... I tried to check how many there are and found a number between 5 and 155 thousands...
Only 1971 answers left, which means I will have to stop playing a few days before age 55...
*10665 in addition to the correct answers...

Watching system usage, it blows my mind how much differently programs work. Right now Vivaldi has over sixty tabs open (way too much, even for me), and Task Manager shows ~1 GB. Firefox only has 3 tabs open, and it is at 1.8 GB. Even though 2 of those are for Facebook, the difference still seems staggering.
Just for curiosity's sake, I shut down FF, and reopened it. Without clicking on any other tabs, it still shot up to the same memory usage as Vivaldi. Clicking on the other tabs took it up to 1.2 GB, and scrolling FB quickly added another 100+ MB to it.
I see many people praising FF, but I still remember the old problems with it, including ever-expanding memory usage. It doesn't seem like the underlying memory usage has really been addressed, even after all these years.
Out of curiosity, I opened Vivaldi in Windows Sandbox, with the same 3 tabs. The memory usage was half that of FF. Firefox, I do wish you well. But it would be nice to see better engineering behind the scenes.

Meanwhile, Chrome is like "Oh, I see you have 32GB of RAM... It would be a shame if something happened to it..."
|
|
|
|
|
In the old days, Chrome was an absolute pig. I now have a Chrome window open with only 7 tabs, and it is far more memory efficient than FF would be, at only 472 MB. Chrome has done wonders with memory efficiency compared to FF, in my experience. But it seems the folks at Vivaldi have taken Chrome's base and polished the heck out of it. They have performed an absolutely impressive feat, especially with the additional tools they have given us, like command chains.
