At DjangoCon Europe 2024 I met Antonio Melé, author of "Django 5 by Example", for which I wrote the preface 📗

It was nice to meet Antonio and have a copy of his book (which I recommend to everyone) with his dedication ✍️

@paulox Oh damn, I missed Antonio! Lovely chap.

Any idea why PostgreSQL is this much slower compared to SQLite and MySQL?

This is on Ubuntu 24.04, connecting through Django and I've tried both psycopg and psycopg2, but the result is the same: ~200 requests per second with Postgres compared to ~2000 with SQLite or MySQL.

@anze3db @frank Did you have it in your DATABASES setting dict? It’s not a standalone setting, it’s per connection.

Dear - is there a central repo of branding and media asset information for the django project? I'm looking for high quality versions of the django logo, the django pony , colour swatches and the like, and I couldn't find one when looking at the website.

I'm aware of the django pony site,
https://djangopony.com/

…and that I can buy a license of the original pony to edit if need be:

@mrchrisadams @andywood afaiu the pony is just that site and isn’t under the DSF in any way

My pre-departure rituals include making myself a plate of pasta and enjoying a strong espresso 🤌

🆙 django-upgrade 1.18.0 is out, with support for Django 5.1 (currently in alpha) and a fixer for the argument rename in CheckConstraint:

@stuartm Yes it’s nice that Django is stable and reliable, though I’d also be happy to see some more mass-refactorable changes to make things more ergonomic :)

Do they have this specific brand and flavor of yogurt outside of Spain? I think it is basically Oikos Triple Zero, but this particular flavor is super good (it has little chunks of banana in it), and doesn’t compare to the banana cream flavor we have in the States.

@pganssle They have it in Portugal 😜 and yes it’s yummy.

🔍 Terminal Tip: Instant Source Viewer! 🐍

Below I defined a function called pys (you can add it to your .zshrc).

Now you can peek at Python source code from the command line like this:

$ pys module [object]

E.g.
$ pys collections
$ pys collections Counter

@bbelderbos no need for a custom function: https://docs.python.org/3/library/pkgutil.html#pkgutil.resolve_name

Is it just me or is the emoji picker on MacOS just unusable sometimes? It drives me crazy when this happens 🙈

> Custom tags may now set extra data on the Parser object that will later be made available on the Template instance. Such data may be used, for example, by the template loader, or other template clients.

That looks handy, at least partially 😜

@carlton I guess you’re rather partial to the feature?

adamchainz,

@carlton good to see the template engine isn’t static.

🐍♦️ Use Git to pass pytest a list of all modified test files:

pytest $(git diff --name-only '/test_.py')

Adjust the pathspec (Git’s “glob” syntax) if you have a different test file naming convention.

adamchainz,
@adamchainz@fosstodon.org avatar

@cfbolz yeah that would be sick, theoretically possible in a plugin.

♦️ 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.

Explained in my post: https://adamj.eu/tech/2023/10/31/git-force-push-safely/

@hjwp yes it reads the reflog :)

Nothing is ever gone in Git until it’s expired from the reflog
