Python Method vs function

Method is called by its name, but it is associated to an object (dependent).
A method is implicitly passed the object on which it is invoked.
It may or may not return any data.
A method can operate on the data (instance variables) that is contained by the corresponding class
Function is block of code that is also called by its name. (independent)
The function can have different parameters or may not have any at all. If any data (parameters) are passed, they are passed explicitly.
It may or may not return any data.
Function does not deal with Class and its instance concept.

Hi everyone,

I recently left my 9-to-5 corporate job after almost a decade to chase something I’ve always dreamed about—starting my own food business. It started small: just a cloud kitchen running out of a rented space, late nights testing recipes, early mornings handling orders, and zero regrets so far.

Now, with some loyal customers, decent growth, and a lot of love from the community, I’m slowly working toward turning this little kitchen into a walk-in café. It’s a scary, exciting step—but I want to do it right.

That brings me to this post. As we grow, I want our team to look as professional as we feel. We’re in the market for good-quality chef coats for kitchen staff—something that’s breathable, durable, easy to wash, and doesn't look sloppy after a long day. Style matters too, since we’ll be customer-facing soon.I found a brand called Lintex online. They seem pretty legit, offer kitchen uniforms, long sleeve chef coats, and even frontdesk uniforms (which could be useful later). Their site looks solid, but I’ve never ordered uniforms before, and I’m a little nervous about fabric quality and fit.

Has anyone here ordered from Lintex before? Would love to hear your suggestions. Thanks in advance!

I'm an Oral-Maxillofacial Surgeon working with a trauma hospital and academic setup in Delhi. We get our 3D models, from Curewith3D, a dedicated 3D lab equipped with FDM and SLA 3D printers, focused on presurgical planning and patient-specific modeling.

We routinely use 3D printed anatomical models, especially for complex facial reconstructions, TMJ cases, and orthognathic surgeries. They’re invaluable for surgical rehearsals, resident training, and most importantly, patient education. When patients can physically hold their jaw model and understand the procedure, consent becomes more informed and anxiety levels drop.

As for printing surgical instruments or implants, we’re cautious. While the 3D orthopedic implants we design are precise and patient-specific, their final manufacturing still goes through standard biocompatible grade processes. Like in most regions, concerns about sterilization, structural integrity, and litigation prevent experimental tools from entering the OR directly. That said, the potential for custom joint replacement implants and 3D knee replacement implants in underserved areas is enormous. We see 3D printing as a huge enabler in low-resource and humanitarian settings.

Signal Hunt: An ESP-NOW Workshop & Treasure Hunt

Hello everyone! We’re planning on organizing a two-phase event that explores device-to-device communication using ESP-NOW protocol :

Workshop: Participants learn to build and program ESP32-based receivers with a web interface that directly exchange signal data using ESP-NOW for RSSI-based distance approximation.

Signal Hunt Competition: Equipped with these receivers, participants will track hidden ESP32 transmitters scattered around the campus, each with distinct point values.

Current hardware setup:
Reciever(one per team):
Esp32 ~ 360rs
9v battery = 20rs
9v battery clip= 5rs
buck converter (MP1584 or LM2596) ~ 45rs
Perfboard + male to female berg strip ~30rs
Total per reciever ~ 460rs
Transmitters :6
Components same as recievers = 460*6~2760rs

(using non-rechargeable batteries to reduce cost,
will using a 7805 voltage regulator IC be a viable way to reduce cost further?)

We’d love your suggestions on ways to simplify hardware, reducing the cost, secure partnerships and funding, or enhance the interactive elements. Thank you, looking forward to any ideas that can help make the event engaging and successful!
