Reluctantly realizing we need a marketing name for minimal zero-dependency Vanilla Web Components that progressively enhance from Light DOM 😬

@zachleat Vanilla DOM?

Because naming things is hard.

@mahryekuh A question concerning your talk at : Why did you use a separate isort instead of the built-in isort-rules from ruff? I am sure you mentioned it, but I don't remember the answer.

mahryekuh, (edited )
@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

@oliverandrich Good question! I haven’t tried the built-in isort yet, but might for my own projects.

However. I don’t always put Ruff into legacy projects because it will throw more issues than the team is willing (or has money) to fix. A separate isort is nice in such cases.

@oliverandrich That’s awesome! It’s such a blessing in the long run.

Haha ik heb een @mahryekuh gespot op de foto's van de Developer Summit 2023 🥳

@SuitedUpDev Yes! Was het deze? https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7115045004846198784/

@SuitedUpDev Die is wel mooi gelukt; precies nadat de host per ongeluk het antwoord op de Kahoot-vraag spoilerde (het antwoord was "Python") en er een fotograaf voor onze bakkes stond. Timing 💯

HTTPuns before this toot.

@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

Meanwhile, I'm unironically using the almighty Wikipedia for reference.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes

It might not be a development website, but its list of HTTP status codes is still one of my favorite overviews.

mahryekuh,
@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

@SuitedUpDev You're not the first to mention that one! (See responses to my one toot up)

I shall take this as a sign to use more HTTP cats.

Ever since I got back from holiday, Her Royal Meowjesty is clingy AF.

@SuitedUpDev Lucky you. Mine usually DGAF 😂

Although they are very particular about when they want to be clingy.

@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

@SuitedUpDev Wow, the sitter must not have fed her according to her preferred schedule! 😂

(Kidding, cats do get attached to their favorite human)

My current lock screen. I love seeing the tiny Wily peeking out every time.

@seldo I hardly slept last night and misread that "tiny willy" 🥲

mahryekuh,
@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

@seldo I don't see them either. Unrelated, it's a great picture!

It's a good day when you work on an older codebase and see several lines you can delete.

For example, I recently realized I'd hard-coded several views for reasons that could be solved within .as_view() in the URLs module.

Not that I will actually fix them today; it is a side project, after all, but that aside. 😇

mahryekuh,
@mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

@webology I had a colleague who could make such fancy refactor tools in vim. He's a wizard, and I could never.

I usually postpone such refactors until it's necessary. Or, in the case of personal projects... until I've beaten ADHD for a good few hours.

“The funnier it is in the beginning of a story, the more dramatic it can become. Because when an audience is laughing, that's opening their souls somehow, and when you have an audience with an open soul, it's much better to hit them with a knife.”

Fatih Akin (movie director) has a pretty effective philosophy :)

    @Jonathanglick Or maybe it's clever marketing, and he's setting himself up as the (anti-)hero compared to Elon Musk, who's actively seeking out the former. 🤔

    Anyone else see "AI" and just switch off?

    If I'm looking for some new software or a SaaS, or I open an article and it mentions AI, I immediately go back or close the tab. I'm just so fed up of it appearing in everything.

    I get it has a use (I wouldn't even say it's a purpose) but it seems some products have gone hard on it and I'm just bored of hearing about it now.

    @mikestreety Yes, same with "blockchain" and "smart." However, I'll give the latter a chance.

    mahryekuh,
    @mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mikestreety Smart technology powered by AI on the blockchain! We have no clue what it does but it's the best and using these words gets us funding!

    @rem I've seen some of these in Dutch stores. It's good to know that through the magic of globalization, we all have to deal with post-summer winter decorations.

    🤔 mypy + django-stubs wakes up every day and chooses violence. 🔨

    That is all. 🔥

    mahryekuh,
    @mahryekuh@fosstodon.org avatar

    @adamchainz @webology That's a pretty impressive statistic.

    I haven't tried mypy strict mode yet in bigger projects; there are a lot of tools I daren't run on legacy projects because it's usually "fix these 2000 issues of missing types or documentation" 🥲
