Working on the slides for this evening's talk at the Python Pescara @pescara meetup, I found the commit in which Adrian Holovaty @adrian added WSGI support to Django way back in 2005. ⏳

Mind-blowing 🤯

Repeat with me: Unix is no longer the complex jungle it was 30 years ago, and I no longer need a build system other than a Makefile with a few ifdefs for the majority of system software projects. I thereby promise to try very hard to keep things simple UNITL POSSIBLE.

@HamaBarhamou sure, you can find an automatic transcription in the 'Transcript' tab on the podcast website, but I don't know how accurate it is. If I can, I'll try to review it in the future

Just saw that @sarahboyce is greatly under followed. Y’all fix that. She’s absolutely amazing!

She even helped me navigate the PyCharm settings like a boss!

@kjaymiller @sarahboyce I totally agree. 🤗
Can I follow Sarah more than one times?

Do you have any suggestions on where to easily sell a domain? 💡
It would be due in a couple of days. 🗓️
I have found many sites online, but I would like some advice from someone who has actually sold their domain successfully. 🙏

Sacrifice (https://monkeyuser.com/2024/sacrifice/)

“Deprecation is like a polite warning saying, Hey, this function had its glory days, but now it's heading towards retirement. But don't worry, it's not like it'll stop working immediately. No, no, it'll just linger around, potentially causing future headaches, gently nudging you to change your ways before it finally breaks your entire project in the next big update.”

@davidism@mas.to avatar

Getting closer to finishing the rewrite of the Pallets website, with a new design and up-to-date information. Got a burst of energy when I found Pico CSS, was procrastinating for ages not wanting to deal with CSS frameworks. With Pico you write basic HTML and it all Just Works. https://picocss.com/

paulox,
@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@pauleveritt @davidism I believe that in many cases, writing semantic and classless HTML is good for the web and increases its accessibility. 🚀
In fact, we have just updated the Python Pescara 🐬 group landing page to Pico v2 ✨

@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@pauleveritt @davidism I'm glad you agree with my statement. 😀
Although we are working on a version based on Pelican, at the moment the Python Pescara landing page is a simple static HTML file that you can find on GitHub 👇

@neffscape @wsvincent Interesting to know. 🙂
For “arrosticini” we would need a nice conference to attend in Switzerland, so we will bring them. 😃
We will certainly organize an event in Abruzzo, it will be an opportunity to come here. 🏞️
