I’ve been often asked why I’m using Nox for running my #Python #test suites lately. I’ve been evading the question because I can’t explain it without contrasting it with Tox, a project very dear to my heart.

I’ve finally given in: Why I Like Nox: hynek.me/articles/why-i-like-n

@jugmac00 hah I’ve been waffling over writing project names. Nowadays I use fixed font for the command itself, italics for stylized names (like attrs, structlog etc) and upper case for proper names. I guess tox wants italics then. :)

@hynek @jugmac00 I was under the Impression that Germans love to capitalize Nouns.

@pganssle @hynek @jugmac00 See also Pytest and Coverage.py (but at least you didn't write Py.test :)

@hugovk @pganssle @jugmac00 the main problem is that many/most projects are inconsistent how they write/style their names themselves. :-/ Stylizing everything (I broke Italics are correct for software) made the typography of my posts a bit too busy, because I me ruin a lot of projects. So I looked how Wikipedia does it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@hynek @pganssle @jugmac00 Names in tech are all over the place! lowercase, camelCase OtherCamelCase, iCase...

@pganssle @hynek That is true in general, but we also have great respect for names, and do not modify them - not even at the beginning of a sentence. Well... obviously most have respect, but not all 😂

@hynek @pganssle I hope we can meet @pyconde to discuss what is really important in life.

@jugmac00 @pganssle @pyconde Since it overlaps with my PyCon US travel, I'm not attending but I might be tricked into some socializer before the conf.
