Gonna build a KVM (virtual machine) for testing / learning Calckey.

I've been running a personal Mastodon server for five months, before that didn't really use Fediverse.

jebba,

Documentation: Mastodon wins by far, unless I'm missing some other Calckey docs archive.

+1 Mastodon.

Python import: Advanced Techniques and Tips

I thought I knew until I read this. The plugins' functionality was quite interesting, and I have a few ideas about what I can use it for. One thing I miss in Python that I often use is in are true abstract classes, overloading, and extension of classes. With tools like this, you can achieve similar functionality.

Normally, after reading an article like this, I like to go back to the official documentation. Articles like this teach by example and plant seeds, terms, words, and concepts in your brain. Going back to the documentation, you then get a better understanding of what you read. It also gives more meankng and some sense to the chaos that documentation can often introduce.

Google's "Web Environment #Integrity" #proposal is one of the #evilest things I have ever seen proposed for the #internet, possibly only behind #government #IDs being required for any access.

https://github.com/RupertBenWiser/Web-Environment-Integrity/blob/main/explainer.md

Let's get this out of the way: they give a number of #reasons why #webservers "might wish" to establish that a web #client is running on a "#trusted" software stack, including things like "make sure other game players aren't cheating" and "ensure I'm talking to another human".

If not using a Google-endorsed means to all of that, most people are not going to be able to make that choice. They're going to have to use , and they'll have to put up with it shoving " ads" (aka all-encompassing in the middle of your attempt to use the service) and a million other ads.

Folks, if you could suggest improvements to the documentation, what would it be? Improved ToC? More examples? Different structure?

Good news! These already exist!

At the top left of https://docs.python.org/3/ is "Download these documents" taking you to https://docs.python.org/3/download.html

There's a zip of PDFs of each section, including one for the tutorial, and an epub of the whole thing.

OK, the burnout has me. Started a couple days ago. I’m not 100% what triggered it, but I think it may have been assisted by the “therapy” experience last Friday. Regardless, I can feel a discord between my brain and body. I’m up today and feel rested but my brain is stuck.

So switching gears to today. Staying home. Light work duty. Maybe a nap. Let’s see if we can ease ourselves into a . If I had a , I’d be in it now.

The good news is that day seems to have helped. Managed to be productive in the morning and napped like a champ after lunch. Feeling a bit better this evening. Isolating and recentering is always the way.

If I find out that this purely , and a and actual support from helps address or even moderate it, then I would be a happy camper.

queenslight, to fediverse

Greetings!

As an , this is my secondary account alongside my main one found at @queenslight.
This one will mostly be for times when I have lots to write about (not that I really need 8000 characters), or when the Mastodon instance I'm on is down do to an update/attack.

I do still have the instance I am on too, but unlike with Misskey, Calckey's interface definitely has a much nicer learning curve, and even with its beginnings, is way more Friendly to screen reader users, even without keyboard shortcuts yet.
Not much else to say, thus may you all have a lovely rest of your day!

Update!

Remember above I said there weren't keyboard shortcuts yet I stand corrected! J/K are definitely here. Not sure if the question-mark key shows them all or not, since I haven't gotten that command to work yet. I'll keep looking.

I made my very first Open-Source merge request of my entire life today. I made it to Fedora Docs UI. I am excited and I am already working on more bugs. Thank you @fedora for giving regular people the opportunity to contribute.

riddled,

@hankg @fedora Yeah it was a neat experience. Now that I have done that I am taking some time to learn the workflow of the team, then I will contribute more.

The Learning Journey Working Group is trying a new process: leveraging the community for crowdsourcing tutorial feedback. Essentially we’re trying out a sprint process that lasts a month at a time. Our first iteration of getting feedback is in this post: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/2023-06-19-tutorial-series-call-for-feedback-1/29377

Please chime in! Even if that’s to let us know that we haven’t provided enough context for you to know what we’re asking!
