future version will require modern setuptools and vcs-versioning - all build pipelines that still need legacy setuptools and/or old python had about half a decade now to update python tooling - its time to go modern

i released https://t.co/yOFStNw6Ec today - its expected to work just the same for all users its the last release with legacy python and legacy setuptools support its also going to be the last release thats mostly standalone #python #packaging #setuptools #pypa

its uncanny how much better i feel since i dropped the app and notifications - twitter truly has been crossed off - i'll destroy my accounts sooner after copying out some things i want to keep

My Twitter account will be deleted within the next 2 weeks

Elon’s story is an inspiring reminder that as long as your dad owns an apartheid emerald mine, you too can become the biggest loser on earth

#lpt - write documentation early - expanding the documentation of setuptools_scm created so much extra sots for enhancements - writing simply shows blind pots

Soon after learning Python you should learn how to test Python. Very soon after learning how to test Python code you should learn the pytest library!

Wir haben keinen Fachkräftemangel, wir haben einen Mangel an Arbeitgebern, die faire Löhne bezahlen.

Computer science is a broadly overused/misused term, Lots of the work people do in the SW/hardware is just engineering or crafting To paint a lossy picture it's a bit like material science vs mechanical engineering/CNC planning vs machine operator or even hand operators

It’s always “do people in their 20s have enough life experience to be MPs” and never “do people born into massive generational wealth who never had to worry about rent, bills, shit jobs or tuition fees have enough life experience to be MPs”.

Retweet if you agree.

Was nach über 3 Jahren Aktivismus geblieben ist: Die schlechten Bedingungen in der Pflege, das dauerhafte Arbeitsverbot in zwei Berliner Kliniken und die bittere Erkenntnis, das Profit immer vor Menschenwürde steht!

Die CDU ist nicht die Alternative für Deutschland mit Substanz, sondern die Alternative für Deutschland mit Merz. Weitere Unterschiede schwinden leider von Tag zu Tag.

Moving fast and breaking things can still be good advice, but the bro's that got ship manure in shambles in as best practice should be forced to dogfood until they admit that's one can't break things already in shambles - need working to get to breaking

I am flabbergasted that people still refer to the "innovation" of crypto. After 15 years of this nonsense—the same age as the iPhone—there is still not a single example of a company that uses crypto for any productive activity other than offshore gambling. That's NOT innovation.

Any parent trying to get a app for a kid that's not trying to rip them off by manipulation and in app sales is bound to wish for the end of capitalism

my current peril is trying to move a grown set of attributes that work similar and share a prefix into actual attributes, but keeping aliases but one cant have a property that's also a init-arg and/or converts, also one can't convert pairs of arguments to a single attribute

on regular basis i wish i could annihilate #python dataclasses/attrs -the need for codegen, the need to munge around a class after it was made, the lack of combination safe transition tools all add up

Client hires me to finish a project. Old codebase isn't too hot. Rewrote it all with Django/Htmx. Faster to write, faster to load. Less code. Just works. I'm telling you frontend engineers overcomplicated their entire industry just to keep themselves employed.
