"There should be one obvious way to get #Python!" @hynek at @PyConUK on the way we have over-indexed on making everyone happy and how that makes new users make lots of decisions that they aren't really equipped to make yet.

"The Secret to Creativity: Don't wait for the perfect moment; take this moment and make it perfect." - Futurist Jim Carroll
As someone who has spoken on the topic of innovation worldwide, I've long understood creativity to be one of the most important skills we can have.
But how do we build it, nurture it, develop it, and protect it?
There are many ways to do this! One of the interesting things I am learning about the use of AI is that it is a powerful tool to revisit large sets of data and examine them for key insights. Yesterday, I exported all of my blog posts - several thousand from 2002 - organized into categories. I picked one random category - Creativity - and started to work with it.
Through the years, I've covered the topic in a lot of depth, ranging from methods of fostering and accelerating innovation to aligning with trends to chasing your inner uniqueness. And it does form the core of my upcoming book, Being Unique: Turning Curiosity, Creativity, and Courage into Your Competitive Edge
I worked through the material in Gemini and came up with a list of 25 strategies that could help you think about this issue. It's a pretty good list!
Your Personal Creativity Action Plan is a PDF that I generated by examining all 150 posts and digging out the advice I've given over the years as to how to accelerate your creativity. You can grab it here.
https://pdf.jimcarroll.com/The-Secret-to-Creativity.pdf
Here goes - these are the ideas designed to help you build the habits and mindsets necessary to spark new ideas, adapt to change, and turn your unique vision into reality.
(Read the post for the list)
Creativity is core to your future.
Act accordingly.

Futurist Jim Carroll is busy discovering new nuggets of creativity buried deep within the insight he has been sharing for years!

Did a lot of work on conda-forge this week handling various packages for exotic architectures. Includes some Rust CLI tools I got to build on ppc4le (for fun), and CUDA-dependent libs I wanted to enable on Grace Hopper systems using aarch64.
Previously I've relied mostly on the migrator bot, which tends to default to emulation on QEMU apparently, but found out at https://github.com/conda-forge/cargo-auditable-feedstock/pull/4#issuecomment-3291674939 that cross-compilation 1) works and 2) is faster. It's documented at https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/knowledge_base/#how-to-enable-cross-compilation, but it only 'clicked' in my brain recently.

I opened my playlist-automation repo.
Requires: artist, title (optional: releasedate) in a connected google sheet
It does....
Fetch:
- youtube video links
- bandcamp track links
- mx3.ch profiles of swiss artists (via api)
- spotify song links (via api)
- instagram artist profiles
- uses a local searxng instance (builtin)
Push:
- songs to defined spotify playlists
Tidy:
- splits and cleans main artist(1,2,3)/ feature artist in songtitle
- parses all sorts of date formats
Export:
- wordpress codeblock with social icons
- pdf summary of newest tracks with additional info for onair persons
Has a stable gui i'm not entirely proud of yet, but... stable, mine, and gets the job done. 🤫

Does anybody know how to install #python locally within a directory? I can’t find any good resources on it…

@voltagex I'd bet that error message does not actually come from #Python itself (meaning the interpreter or standard library), and thus whether the responsible project would accept a pull request depends entirely on which project it is. (But most likely, yes)
