Everything about OpenAI is a scam.

Can't recommend enough the Hypermedia Systems ebook to web developers. Not only a great resource for learning and "getting" #htmx, and acquiring key best practices for using it, but it also makes the case for the classic #hypermedia system architecture, which has been somewhat disregarded over the last decade or two. Should be a worthwhile read, regardless of the framework or app architecture you intend to use.

Hello! I'm David, an experienced builder of web applications and information systems primarily for the scientific research sector.

I enjoy the challenge of complex problems, which I strive to solve with simple and elegant solutions, placing the end user at the core of my analyses.

I have many interests in life, but on Mastodon I will primarily focus on topics related to my work, such as #python, #flask, #django, #wagtail, #libre, #opendata, #openscience, #search.

The new python 3.13 REPL looks so useful that I might be able to switch from IPython to it entirely!

I posted about brain cancer and hope to find people to pick up the torch on my accessibility projects that I think could help make the web better. I have a major surgery May 29th and time is short. I will only become less able.

Summaries and links can be found here: https://github.com/alt-text-org/in-need-of-adoption

I'm happy to answer any questions, or just discuss things, but I do ask that kind words on cancer not be posted here, despite my appreciation for them.

Boosts and sharing elsewhere appreciated.

It's starting to look like I will no longer be employed over the next couple of weeks. I would love to find something in WordPress, Linux, Open Source, Security, etc. Junior roles are okay. Like I mentioned a week or two back, I just want to get back into some work that makes me happy. My current role is stressful, pays terribly, and with the possibility of losing it over the next couple of weeks, my anxiety is going through the roof. Thanks for any help you give. ❤️

Many yearn for the "good old days" of the web. We could have those good old days back — or something even better — and if anything, it would be easier now than it ever was.

Google lays off its entire #python team.
Google's decision to lay off its talented workers may backfire, as their competitors will be happy to hire them. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/google-gets-mckinseyed-sergei-polevikov-abd-mba-ms-ma--gqnde?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios&utm_campaign=share_via #google #coding

You may think that the finances of the GNOME project are assured for times to come thanks to the Sovereign Tech Fund's donation of one million euros. But this million euros is distributed conditionally for very specific developments. The GNOME foundation has been living on its reserves for several years, and will now have to scale back its operations.

I don’t think many American tech companies are prepared for the rest of the world becoming competition, not just markets:

Ever wondered about the time complexity of #Python's data structures? ⌚🐍

I made a cheat sheet for you. 📇

It includes all common operations on the various built-in and standard library data structures. Let me know if I missed anything! 😅

🤔 So I know Jazzband exists for Python and Django projects that could use a little help to keep them maintained and that are too important to abandon.

I wonder if anyone has seen a space or organization for the abandoned and outdated Django and Python projects?

Every time I fork a project for an org that's many years out of date, I feel like it's a missed opportunity to share.
