I'd much rather see something like
if (thing_is_permissible(user, thing)
or (user_possesses_hammer(user)
and glass_break_requested(thing))):
than
if (thing_is_permissible(user, thing) or
(user_possesses_hammer(user) and
glass_break_requested(thing))):
because the former makes the overall logic much easier to scan.
Similarly for a formula full of arithmetic rather than Boolean
operators. And the actual PEP 8 agrees (though until 2016 it
unfortunately had the opposite advice.)
The upstream linter still applies the backward rule, so disable that.
This directory contains scripts that are used in building, managing,
testing, and other forms of work in a Zulip development environment.
Note that tools that are also useful in production belong in
scripts/ or should be Django management commands.
