Coding is C# sure feels different than coding in Python. I can't quite put my tongue on it yet but there's definitely something. #python #CSharp #developers #programming

I just found some (to me surprising behaviour) with #ImageMagick #montage on #Fedora 43.
Assume A.png and B.png exist in the current folder.
Run this command:
montage -stroke lightblue A.png B.png -background black C.png
C.png now contains a montage of A.png and B.png
Change the background color like this:
montage -stroke lightblue A.png B.png -background #6d6d6d C.png
No errors are produced. Now reissue:
montage -stroke lightblue A.png B.png -background black C.png
This time, an error appears:
montage: no decode delegate for this image format `' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/746.
This took me an hour and a half to resolve.
I see clearly the mistake I made a shell programming mistake in the second command (although I didn't catch it because the parameters were actually constructed in #Python).
However, the final error indicates that IM processes parameters in a way that I did NOT expect. Is this just me?
I've raised it as a discussion here:

Calling cpu() twice is safe, it just does nothing.

Migration réussie d’une appli #django de #heroku vers #hetzner 💪
Autant je connais les rouages, autant la stack #nginx #systemd #supervisor #python #gunicorn #postgresql me gonfle un peu 🤭 sans parler qu’il a fallu renouveler les certificats (expirés) via #letsencrypt et configurer une nouvelle entrée au niveau dns.
… en soi, rien n’est réellement compliqué (pour peu que l’on s’y intéresse 🙃)… et en même temps : ça fait beaucoup de choses à comprendre et à configurer pour « juste un CRUD de plus ».
Tout ça manque terriblement de déploiement « push buttons » et de stacks simplifiées.
Je devrais peut-être regarder du côté d’#ansible 🤭

My last Widows experience was XP, I cannot help. But maybe you can help by creating an Offpunk package for Scoop:
Packagers are also requested for:

Don’t hesitate to join the mailing-list:

@bovine3dom I am going to argue you always have these trade-offs. It's just that they are more extreme with #python and similar script-like languages. But I am not a programmer and YMMV.

🚀 MNELAB 1.2.0 is out!
This release includes support for reading the new BrainVision Recording Format (BVRF) (https://www.brainproducts.com/support-resources/brainvision-recording-format/). It also includes proper light and dark mode support for the macOS app icon, a redesigned XDF chunk dialog with improved XML display, and improved epoch indexing.
We recommend the standalone versions for macOS and Windows (on Linux use `uvx mnelab`).
