This is one of those things that I always assume other Python developers know about, but often don't.

I've had luck with Proxmox and this Terraform provider: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/Telmate/proxmox/late... Other than a working Proxmox install, you'll need to create …

No, Arrow is much more than parsing/formatting. Each Arrow object has a `shift` method, which is how you can add or subtract units of time. Greater/less/equal comparisons work exac…

This vector has always existed - all that changed is RFC 8484 defines a standard way of doing this.

A former coworker accidentally bought one of these on Craigslist thinking he was buying a legit one. The price was pretty close to retail (or maybe even higher, as it was close to …

Most of the elements you'd want on a status page are there, but the tone and structure are really off. I think you nailed it that this reads like an internal communication to a man…

I knew this was coming eventually, but I am definitely selling my Rift after this announcement.

The only Datadog feature announcement I look forward to is "we've solved our stability issues!". I am sick of playing the "is our infrastructure or Datadog's on fire?" game at 3 AM…

Seems like a less-good derivative of Briefcase: https://github.com/beeware/briefcase

It feels like someone's hackathon project that was accidentally deployed to production, and has been running ever since.

It does make sense to impose some sort of upper bound (only so someone doesn't try and DoS you with a crazy long password), but 13 characters isn't going to bring a server to its k…

Apologies to the authors, but anything from Packt is a hard pass.

I had the same experience - radio silence.

Are any of these an option at the Vancouver office?

A good PM knows that all they should own is the definition of "what" should be worked on, but the bad ones seem to gravitate towards the "how" as well. I suspect this has something…

Airbnb is a zero sum game - what tourists win, locals lose. Two of my coworkers are currently being forced to look for a new place to live in a tight housing market because their c…

Of all the books I recommend for junior/intermediate developers, this is the one I demand they read. I wish the the free online version was still available, but it doesn't appear t…

You can buy these here: https://luckyironfish.com/collections/all/products/lucky-iro... They might seem a bit pricey for what it is, but they operate on a "buy one, give one" model…

They charged my card long after I'd already canceled and changed providers. Eventually got a refund, but I shouldn't have needed one in the first place.

I was really interested in applying recently, until I saw what their interview process entails, and laughed. I can understand "hire slow", but 7 rounds of interviews is way too muc…

Exactly. I'm curious if the author continued using Go for a bit of time, if they would still write the same article. Some of the concepts the author took issue with, such as receiv…

Now they can lose your money, along with your data!

If I could set arbitrary key/value on both users and features, that should be enough to make it work.

It looks interesting, and might be something I introduce to my team. Is it possible to define cohorts of users, and then expose features to that group? I work on a SaaS app used by…

The retry and locking mechanisms look pretty handy - I've had to implement those on my own whenever I've used Celery. What's your experience been using this and Redis for your queu…
