Earlier quoted context omitted.

yes, the folders correspond to sessions -- haven't had too much time to polish it off (there should be slides in the folders as well)

So what is the state of the course? Is this basically a self-paced, self-taught series of notes? Either way, looks like a nice resource, so thank you.

The repo is a compilation of weekly workshops and collaborative discussions we held at our company.

We're looking to make screencasts of the upcoming public facing workshop (www.theymc.com), and open them up to everybody.

I didn't get it when Google decided to name their language Go because it was awfully hard to google. Same here : the name isn't bad but will be impossible to google for anyone forgetting to add "python" to their request. Anyway, great initiative, I'm looking forward to read it ! (star or bookmark it if you intend to find it next week) :)

Yeah, googling that is impossible. If I remember correctly, I found it from Github search. Now there's 84 stars instead of 1. :)

cheers =)

I've used Django before, and I found it disappointing. Does the ORM still lack identity mapping? Does it still not let you run custom SQL and get the results back as model objects (instead of plain tuples)?

Do you still evaluate frameworks by bullet points of features you might never need (instead of evaluating the overall workflow and productivity)?

I said I've used Django before. The flaws I named are things that caused actual, serious problems in my project.
