@CodenameTim as far as I know, I’m not a DSF member yet. I thought that I’d applied, but perhaps I’m mistaken or was unsuccessful. Otherwise, I’m happy to help admin.
If you call update_or_create where the instance already exists and the defaults passed in are already the values on the instance, do you ever want it to actually re-save the instance?
I'm running into the case where I'd prefer it to not update the instance if it doesn't need to. I'm guessing I'm overlooking some race condition problem though.
@ryanhiebert@CodenameTim@webology I actually made FieldTracker because I was inspired by django-simple-history and thought django-model-utils might be a good home for that. 😜
Honestly I use django-lifecycle's dirty-checking more often now since it's good enough for my use cases.
And some days you wake up and try to do something new.
If you're into unsettling fiction, hopefully this scratches that itch. If that's not your thing (or amateur writing for that matter), don't click the link.
@ehmatthes I was thinking about your tea & coffee comment this morning. What kinds of tea are you enjoying these days? Do you vary it and is there anything you swear by?
I also realized I crave coffee because my routine isn't stable right now so I'm not waking up as rested as normal.
@CodenameTim The backup plan is to barge our truck and fly to Seattle. It would work fine, it's just a much less satisfying way to leave. Three days on a ferry is a pretty reflective time. :)
We don't have a rental lined up in NC, but with a firm date for leaving that gets easier.
We should be well-established in NC by the time DjangoCon is happening!
I'm pretty far behind @djangochat, but wow! The episode with @baconandcoconut was fantastic. I learned so much about OSS logistics and non-profits. That was a really wonderful chat!
@CodenameTim wild suggestion coming up... but maybe something with an app that's only enabled while testing? You can put a migration in the test app that runs immediate after the target migration, using depends_on?
