~20% of all merges end in conflicts 😬
But what if you could use #python and #AI to craft a LLM for resolving them? 🤔
If that sounds interesting to you, join us on Feb 3 @ 8p CST! 🐍

Fleshed out Toad's README today.
The previous version didn't differentiate Toad much from other agent CLIs. Toad does a lot of things differently and I wanted to showcase that.

I just published the first alpha version of the project that kept me busy this month: a minimal, highly consistent, portable and fast library for (contrast limited) (adaptive) histogram equalization of image arrays in #Python. The heavily lifting is done in #rustlang, and the Python API is (in my opinion) much more consistent than scikit-image's reference implementation.
If you find this useful, please star it !
If you need some feature currently missing, or if you find a bug, please drop by the issue tracker. I want this to be as useful as possible to as many people as possible !

@simontatham It's been a looong time since I used #putty (I ran it in a #Wine "bottle", these came from #flatpak, I'm using Debian 13 #KDE). Thanks for all your efforts!
To my mind, 98% of the time, people would use putty to log into a #linux box/VPS, like say a #RaspberryPi (Raspberry Pi OS, is #Debian Trixie 13-based). This would be a sensible default assumption, **demographically**.
It took a good 2 hours of struggling, just to get 256 colors to work in Putty! (#Python's textualize library seriously expects 256, or *it can crash* when the Theme is changed). Please let the defaults be sane, so there's no struggle for 256 colors! Please alleviate my nerd rage - I beseech you!
1) Sane TERM env var:
Connection -> Data -> Terminal details -> Terminal-type string -> "putty-256color"
2) Sane default font: adwaita mono 12
3) Sane Ctrl + Shift + {C,V} (for copy and paste):
Window -> Selection -> Assign copy/paste actions to clipboard -> Ctrl + Shift + (C,V}: System Clipboard

Les string templates de Python pourraient être bien, mais ont quelques limitations très pénibles https://coderivers.org/blog/python-string-templates/#51-filling-templates-with-data #python #string #template #article

Think "from modname import funcname" saves memory in #Python? It doesn't! (Lots of people think it does.)
The full module still loads (see sys.modules). The only difference: "modname" isn't in your namespace, just "funcname".
"from import" is convenient. It doesn't save memory.

When async clients refuse to hang, everything about reliability changes. If you care about async behavior under failure, this one’s worth a read.

Destructuring vs Tuple Unpacking: The Unpacking War
JavaScript destructuring vs Python tuple unpacking. Which language's unpacking syntax is more powerful? This is INSANE!

For some bizarre reason I’m trying to see if I can get this library updated and working. Am I mad? Quite possibly! Any help or pointers appreciated. It does look like for the most part (testing a couple of geocoding services) it is still working.
Next I guess I should look through the PRs and see what they do and if they work.
