It's a bit of a curse that N95 masks are less effective if you cry into it.

tip: apparently to register and get your badge, you CANNOT go straight from the Westin skybridge to the CC third floor (security will stop you at the third floor elevator if you're not badged).

Gotta enter from street level and make your way up to the second floor via escalator.

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@bitprophet You can! It's a long way around to get there though.

@bitprophet The one yesterday helpfully guided me to where the registration desk was. I'm guessing it's a different guard today. XD

Planning my veg-ish eating for

Rosewater Middle Eastern looks like it has good veg options and Arepittas looks like it probably does too.

ShadoBeni also looks really good, though it's a bit of a walk from the conference center.

Folks eating vegan/vegetarian this trip: found any other eats that look promising?

(Editing to also add the not-officially-recognized but widely used hashtag as well 🤫)

Hello Pittsburgh!

🤔 Over the last few days, I keep seeing lots of Python PEPs thrown around in my feed.

However, I haven't seen as many talking about the potential of "PEP 723 – Inline script metadata" which I keep hearing cool things about.

https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/

🤔 There are very few times that a new Python feature genuinely makes me excited to see, but PEP 723 feels like it has the potential to literally change everything.

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@astrojuanlu @webology https://dbohdan.com/scripts-with-dependencies is linked from PEP 722 (which ended up being a competing PEP), which lists efforts in various language ecosystems for something like this.

Rust's also got ongoing efforts toward something similar: https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/12207

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@webology @alper I don't think we're ever going to end up with python gaining support for this; the standard is more for all of the various tools in this space to have one-way-to-do-things.

I just cut a release of Furo, and this is one that I'm excited about. It's got the most sparkles in the changelog among all the releases so far!

TIL: ValueError: Unknown extraction method 'jinja2’ with recent versions of babel = lack of setuptools. Just add it as another dependency.

I’m not gonna admit how long it took me to debug this despite the setuptools removal being in babel’s changelog. 🙈

@hynek You know, working with software would be nicer if the text it printed on failures gave more of a hint of what-the-heck-is-going-on.

Is there a way I can report what is likely some attempts at grabbing namespaces of packages on pypi that are similar to that of popular packages?

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@ogi @mariatta Ooh, this is messy. The right email for this is admin@pypi.org.

Well, I've been looking forward to this.

Quick packaging tip: if you ever find yourself wanting to type import src.anything or from src import anything, turn back. src should never be part of an import.

New blog post!

Turns out, I use GitHub notifications differently from ~everyone and what I do might be useful to more people than just me.

Another packaging question...

Is there any major downside to shipping my module to PyPI as a single .py file (instead of a directory with a init.py)?

I only have a couple hundred lines of code and no ambition to grow this much further. I figure I can always move from my_package.py to my_package/init.py one day if I need to... right?

I'd usually go with the package approach, but I'm thinking of keeping everything in a single .py file this time.

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@treyhunner For the most part, no. You can make the switch over transparently to API users.

There's https://github.com/python/typing/issues/1333 which others have mentioned as well.

@hynek I've been meaning to say that it's amusing that you got to a title with all-caps "PACKAGING?" in 3 videos. I swear I thought it would take you longer! 😂

Also, as I'm sure you have heard from many: really nicely done!

pradyunsg,
@pradyunsg@mastodon.social avatar

@hynek I did. Had to double take because I was like "wait, was that me"? 🙈

I'm with @webology on this one. GitHub has repeatedly refused to donate to the DSF/DjangoCon because "GitHub don't use Django", but they use mention Django in so much marketing material …

This is probably because Copilot does an excellent job generating Django code ... but that's only because Django's documentation culture and open community forums provide high-quality training material.

How about throwing us a couple of bucks to say "thanks for training our AI”?

@jacob To play devil's advocate, it's not an unconditional 6% which is what someone (eg: past me) would infer from reading that. Personal donations are exempt from even credit card fees and organisations end up with 3% to GitHub if they're using invoices (which also avoids a 3% credit card fee).

I'm seeing a bunch of references to Fediverse spam, but I'm not really seeing any.

Have I done something that makes it less likely that I'd see such spam? (eg: having all my toots be unlisted by default, being on mastodon.social where the admins are doing a really good job, something else?)
