TIL how to use itertools.dropwhile() to get all lines from a file after a specific line. I always used to write my own loop to solve this problem.

I'm curious, have you heard of dropwhile()? Have you used it?

Finally done with precautionary post-#PyConUS isolation. Tested negative✌🏻

The return jet lag is very real after PyCon this year. Second afternoon I’ve dozed off.

If the current British government were deep cover Russian chaos agents, or just plain corrupt and incompetent, would there be any real difference?

ME: “lol, who the heck goes out and drives all over the middle of the continent just to look at (severe) weather???”

ALSO ME: drove round-trip equivalent to 1/3 of the way across the continent, just to look at weather* the other month

• ok, astronomical event, but still

The #PyConUS survey only allowing me to choose one option for travel method is… vexing.

#PyCon2024 had 2,551 in-person attendees and was "sold out”

#PyCon2019 had 3,393 (Checked-in people).

Anyone know why the tickets were restricted to 1,234 fewer in 2024? The venue seemed massive so should have had room.

I'm genuinely curious what the difference was. 48% more seats in 2019 is a big difference.

Left from #PyConUS about 33 hrs ago. Had a scratchy throat this morning w/ a negative test and just now have a positive test.

I went out with various groups, unmasked, throughout the weekend. This was a risk I was willing to take. Still, I'm glad I was wearing a mask in the convention center around folks who did not choose to take that same risk.

I'm gonna go rest now.

Well that’s me wrapped for another year, so long and thanks for all the snakes #PyConUS!

I will admit to spending the first half hour of today's sprints figuring out why my tests weren't running, only to realize I had pytest installed system-wide on my laptop. 🤦‍♂️

♦️ There is a safer alternative to 'git push --force'!

🫸 Use --force-with-lease and --force-if-includes to restrict force pushes so that they don’t unintentionally overwrite commits pushed by others.

Looking for #SelfHosted advice: Thinking of binning my home-made Ansible setup of various docker containers in favour of something more off the shelf.

Any recommendations for user-friendly orchestration systems that work well across multiple nodes so that I can cluster my various raspberries pi?

I think Portainer can do it, are there others?

@bshaurette how long are you around for today? I’d love to say hi, it’s been years!

Anyone had an issue with from django.test import Client causing a high memory usage in a docker container?

I run the tests in a pipeline using a #jenkins agent in #docker.

When this test runs:

def test_login_user(self):  
 c = Client()  
 response = c.post('/user/login/', {'email': 'test1@test.de', 'password': 'test123'})  
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 302)  

The memory usage goes thru the roof. Literally using up all memory until it crashes.
