Python is one of the very slowest languages. It's designed to be readible and very high level at a great cost of speed.
Good python code (Pythonic code) is unique and has good use of its primitives (see the Python data model and the standard library).
If course, there's always a best and worst tool for a job.
@freemo A pleasant surprise
many thanks
Today in digital archaeology: I wanted a PDF calendar generator and found one from 2009 that seemed nice, but the website had long ago disappeared. Luckily the internet archive had crawled it, and since the code was GPL'ed, I was able to update it to build on a modern system and produce page-a-day agendas for my e-ink tablet. https://github.com/osresearch/DynamicTemplates

This kind of art both both enchants and unsettles me.

I don't know how popular that would be. Want me to make one?
Years of terrible news headlines and fraud stories have made me allergic to hearing #blockchain. Looking into it now, I can't believe what I've been missing!
So damn adorable and amazing

Thank you all speakers there @datatitian
Everyone, check out https://web.immers.space for the decent(ralized) metaverse, it is mind-blowing.
And for transparency:
Chris will reappear here starting at around 7:50 pm CET

Just launched a first draft of our website with a little info about what we're cooking: https://bonfire.cafe
TL;DR: Bonfire will be:
1. a pre-configured device
2. a fediverse identity hosted service (which syncs between the fediverse and the device whenever it comes online)
3. apps (web apps but they run on the device instead of the cloud)

I've been drafting a blog post on "emacsification", or the convolution/unification/sigularity of user interfaces, and my own wishes.
This has put a greasy, foot long spanner in the works.

Tested negative for Corona twice. But a cold or dry cough lasts max 2 weeks. And idk how reliable the tests are or if I used them improperly.
The fear comes from the prospect of a cold + corona + no hospital to go to. My local GP is under quarantine.
So I've been informed there's been a corona case in the workplace where a close family member works (care home).
And I've had a persistent, dreadful, undiagnosed cough for over a month, with a poor prospect of hospitalisation.
Our caution can only do so much at this point.
So... will 2021 be my last? It feels plausible and near, and I don't like it.
:/
