@prologic@twtxt.net It was super useful if you needed to do the sorts of things it did. I’m pretty sad.

At its core was Sage, a computational mathematics system, and their own version of Jupyter notebooks. So, you could do all kinds of different math stuff in a notebook environment and share that with people. But on top of that, there was a chat system, a collaborative editing system, a course management system (so if you were teaching a class using it you could keep track of students, assignments, grades, that sort of thing), and a bunch of other stuff I never used. It all ran in a linux container with python/conda as a base, so you could also drop to a terminal, install stuff in the container, and run X11 applications in the same environment. I never taught a class with it but I used to use it semi-regularly to experiment with ideas.

Gajim: Gajim 1.6.1
Gajim 1.6.1 is mostly a bug fixing release, but it also brings some important improvements and adds more convenience. Thank you for all your contributions!

After we ported Gajim and python-nbxmpp to libsoup3, you might have noticed issues with file transfers. Now, python-nbxmpp 4.0.1 has been released, and it fixes an error which prevented transfers of files containing spaces in their file name.

Gajim: Gajim 1.6.0
For Gajim 1.6.0 we ported Gajim’s and python-nbxmpp’s underlying HTTP library to libsoup3. Also, audio previews now look nicer and allow for more control (playback speed, jumping). We fixed emoji rendering on MacOS and we implemented many fixes under the hood. Thank you for all your contributions!

For all HTTP requests (e.g. file downloads, update checks, websocket connection, …) both Gajim and python-nbxmpp rely on libsoup. With Gajim 1.6.0, we ported to libsoup3. You shou … ⌘ Read more

All the scripts on my Gemini capsule (except chess) have now been rewritten using Python and storing data in a SQLite database. This is the first time I’ve ever worked with database in a “production” environment, and I’m inordinately excited.

I’ve made some fixes to twtxt to make it work with Python 3.7+. I hope @buckket@buckket.org will apply this patch!

I feel like it took me a bit longer to fully understand how to work in Smalltalk than it did most languages. The IDE is different than anything I’ve used before, and probably anything you’ve seen as well. You’re not going to be opening myscript.st in your favorite text editor, and then run it from the command line as you would a Python program. It takes a little mental adjustment to start with.

That’s not the warning, howe … ⌘ Read more

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’m a big fan of using PyCharm and IntelliJ on large Python and Java codebases respectively. In my personal life, I mostly use Emacs (because I don’t hack much Java outside of work), but I do wonder what GoLand is like.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de
I’m not a Python programmer, so please bear with me.
The doc about encodings does also mention:

If you require a different encoding, you can manually set the Response.encoding property

Wouldn’t that be a one liner like (Ruby example)?

'some text'.force_encoding('utf-8')

I understand that you do not want to interfere with requests. On the other hand we know that received data must be utf-8 (by twtxt spec) and it does burden “publishers” to somehow add charset property to content-type header. But again I’m not sure what “the right thing to do” ™ is.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I would not mind keeping a diff, if you tell me where to make the changes! I know nothing of Python, and I have spent already a couple of hours trying to make sense. I know it is there, in front of me, if only I knew Python. 😩
