Python Tip #10 (of 365):
When checking for emptiness (or non-emptiness) in Python, use truthiness.
Instead of this:
if len(items) > 0:
...
Or this:
if len(items):
...
Do this:
if items:
...
When an object is used in a boolean context (like in an "if" or "while" condition) it's implicitly converted to a boolean. This is called a "truth value" test, though colloquially it's pretty much always called "truthiness".

Content warning:Pelican blog, help wanted
Here the gist
I have a Pelican blog. My index is the list of all articles. Recently, I started a Journal category in which I'll allow myself to write a lot more. I feel it's gonna drown my index into a lot of articles and people are gonna miss the bigger articles that might interest more people.
So I'd love to filter the Journal category out of the index pages. I haven't found a plugin that's doing that.
Here's my question:
What would be the best way to go about changing this?
Changing the theme is definitely an option.
Thanks
Please boost for larger audience and a better chance at finding an answer.

The Sieve of Eratosthenes can be so simple, like in
#Python
from math import ceil
s=list(range(100))
for p in s[2:]:
if s[p]:
s[p+p::p] = [0]*ceil((100-(p+p))/p)
primes = list(filter(None,s[2:]))
But it can also be quite complicated, it seems.🥶

This weekend I am pouring one out for the category I have come to call the *side project graveyard* lol
We all have that folder of half-finished apps, abandoned blogs and partial scripts. I say don't feel bad about them. Instead of calling them failures, I call them practice runs 😊
You learned something in every repo you abandoned. Maybe this weekend is the time to resurrect one? Or maybe just start a new one. Creativity is a muscle, keep flexing it. 💪🎨
