Retomber sur des reliquats de vidéos des premières #djangocong @djangocong sur youtube et se souvenir de l'ambiance géniale qui y reignait :)
Et aussi prendre un méga gros coup de vieux en voyant nos têtes à tous (oui, à vous aussi !) d'il y a 15 ans (2011, 2012)

Just released pyglobegl 0.3.0 to PyPi, this is my new personal project to create an anywidget wrapper for the very cool looking globe.gl library. Now you can start using globe.gl with Python bindings in all your notebook environments. Huge amount left to do but it's progressing pretty fast. #Python

I created my first (tiny) Python library! PyMicroConf: a tiny TOML config handler
I was working on another random side project and wanted to define configs like Pydantic-Settings without actually pulling in all of Pydantic into my project, so I started writing a custom config class which turned out generic enough that I could break it off into its own thing.
One of the main things I wanted is to be able to load a TOML file for settings but to also be able to override each config option with an env var. I also really like Pydantic’s use of Annotation[..., ...] type-hinting so I did something similar
I don’t really expect it to be used by anyone else but I’m excited about putting out my first PyPi package and figured I’d share it here :)
Any feedback is very welcome!

Also AI disclosure: I got AI to partially write the description but the code itself isn’t written by AI

🐍 #pytest is a powerful tool for testing your #Python projects. In this pytest 201 presentation, I covered some of the more advanced features beyond the core assertion ability of the library (e.g., fixtures, parameterization). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv259R38gqc

My admittedly idealized view on #python was that it showed
that simple good design more often than not trumped
fancy but overly complex languages. (like java)
In lots of ways python was the successor to java. [0]
After using common-lisp, I found python much less
compelling. You start to see that most of the dynamic nature
of python is taken carte blanche from lisp. Which is fine,
but you lose a lot in switching to the more familiar
imperative syntax. I said more familiar not better intentionally.
"lambda" is an example of that to me.
[0] : In the corporate world.

Regression vs. Classification in Machine Learning
Same data, different question—and your model changes because the decision changes.
This post explains how to choose the right framing, how labels and metrics differ (RMSE vs AUC, etc.), and why “turning regression into classification” can change what the model learns in practice.
