Earlier today I posted about a spoof site of mine on #pythonanywhere, 𝐹º𝑛t 𝘔ⅸᵉ𝐫, which converts identifiers in ASCII #Python to equivalent identifiers by randomly selecting Unicode points that normalize back to the original ASCII, and are therefore directly runnable, even though they look like a ransom note. Remember, builtins and all stdlib names can be denormalized this way.

I went to check the web logs, and found that someone found another PA site of mine, ptmcg.pythonanywhere.com/pyrac...

Oh yes, it was the latter. Drat, I've let that bot languish a bit. Must give it a poke.

I think there were some server changes at #PythonAnywhere
that broke my script. I should move it to self-hosted like my other stuff.

Hey @donwatkins What am I doing wrong. It’s not drawing my Pentagon. It works in Idle Python. Anyone have any ideas. I know it’s user error. Please help. #python #pythonanywhere #drawing #turtle #turtlepython

Got around to installing #Flask on my own site (although I'll always have a warm spot in my heart for #pythonanywhere): apps.tegladwin.com/.

I think I'm going to use this to build out making the computational semantic similarity scripts more practically accessible. It currently calculates the similarity between a target word and one versus another list of attribute words (potentially useful for IAT analyses).

Looking at my legacy script hosting situation. I love the #pythonAnywhere service, but it's a bit of bother on free tier to refresh the script every couple of months.

Then again, it does help with the forgetting-you-have-a-bot problem.

Also seeing interesting things about pipedream.com which I'll also read up on.

My needs are very light - no incoming queries, only a small handful of outgoing invocations per day. Well suited to free-tier hosting sites.

Other suggestions welcomed.

Develop the website locally and used GitHub to implement it on #Pythonanywhere. Running it on the server was really complicated. I needed to change a lot of codes.

It looks better now. I need to check the views of the small screens later.

Also, finishing up #django 4 for the impatient involves deploying to #pythonanywhere, which is pretty neat as I haven't used any pure #paas service outside of the big three cloud services. I may use this for further projects as the cost is fairly inexpensive.

Arreglado el problemilla del bot.

Resulta que la whitelist de #pythonanywhere *parecía* estar ordenada alfabéticamente... pero resulta que no, que lo está por tramos. Por eso no encontraba un sitio apto pero sin querer hice más scroll... y resulta que comenzaba otro lote enorme de sitios y, entre ellos, #botsin.space que es donde ya vive @siempremorse

Así es que de momento el refrán diario en español y francés en código morse seguirá saliendo en twitter y shora también en mastodon

Found @botwiki here! Gotta find some time to move my bot(s) over to Masto some time soon.

I have a few fun bot implementations written in Python and hosting on the free level of #PythonAnywhere that provide some interesting content.

Does #mastodon do web crawls? I have 2 web apps on #pythonanywhere which get very little traffic. Since I put links to them on my profile/about I’m seeing daily GET requests to their root directories from a wide variety of instances. Why not just HEAD? That’s what Twitter did. It’s neither good nor bad. I’m just curious. Always looking to learn.
