It has been [0] days since I've been sorely tempted to wrap terraform goop into a thin layer of Lisp, just so that I get to use extremely basic programming things like abstraction through functions and macros.

Questions for @talkpython -->

I'm doing an episode on mobile apps built with and/or backed by #python services. Questions and comments you think I should asked our panel of guests (show is in 1hr from now).

My time at Lofty is coming to a premature end, and outside of my circumstances. If you're in need of a Senior Software Engineer with Data Engineering Skills in the US Remote CST zone, reach out and let's talk about any potential opportunities for work.

If you have a current colleague of mine that you are interviewing or considering offering, I'd be happy to vet and provide recommendations for all of them. #techjobs #jobs

As Python continues its ascendance, I sometimes wonder if I even have a place in that world. I'm not so sure.

At work we're running a hackathon (three days, try out any idea you want), but we want to pull in non-engineers also. "Hackathon" sounds very engineer-y. What are some other possible names for the event that would attract a broad audience? The days don't have to be devoted to code, there are lots of ways to explore innovation. No idea is too weird...

I'm toying with writing up my adventures in writing lisp in assembler, but it's one of those things where it's really best to build up the code as you go and see it evolve. I remember some articles that do this with kind of a two-pane presentation with the code on one side, explanations on the other, and as you scroll through the narrative the code evolves.

Is this a thing? Did I dream it? Where do I get one?

Can you see why this #Django code is suboptimal?

Getting ready for the penultimate in-person course in my Chicago office this coming week. This course, "The One", is just nuts--I think it took my brain 6 months to recover from the last time I did it.

The final send-off for my Chicago office comes in a few weeks with the Raft course. That seems to be a more fitting close. Bon Voyage!

So whats up with the doc note on Model.Meta.unique_together maybe being deprecated in favor of constraints in #django? Is this still an active conversation? Is the doc note still relevant?

For context, we've got some internal discussion around it and prefer unique_together style and would hate to see it go style wise.

I'm starting to understand things about terraform

..terrible, terrible things.

I got asked about using .save over .create in #django and wanted to put my thoughts down in some longer form about my experience. Anyone else using .full_clean and .save instead of .create? Are you a .create fan? How do you choose?

I hate seeing good colleagues leave, and this one really hurt. I just wasnt ready to feel so deflated after building someone up so much.

If you need a very strong backend #django, #graphql, #python and #react #typescript web developer, I know a guy, and we wrote some great, well tested, and typed code

🤔 Does anyone have thoughts on a good/reasonably priced analytics web service that's not Google Analytics (they have enough of my data)?

Emphasis on reasonably priced please.

Django Packages is 2 to 3 million hits a month, every month, which is $200 to $500 a month (browsing pricing pages) for non-Google companies.

Cloudflare has been fine, but they only show the last 30 days.
