I have launched a new Kickstarter for my latest #Python book endeavor.

Recently I updated my #scribus script to create a 365 days #planner adding new features::
Support for alternating layout (the configurable items can be moved to different position on even pages)
Support different color on weekend days
Fixed a bug in locale customization
And first planner created using it (it still needs to be bound...)

I was browsing some Django threads on reddit last week, and heard about a hosting platform I'd never heard of before, called seenode.
I was intrigued because they offer a 7-day free trial that doesn't require a credit card. I had some time this weekend, and made a django-simple-deploy plugin for seenode:

I was reading Kobzol’s excellent article “Writing #Python like it’s #Rust”, and it perfectly captures how Rust can upgrade the way you write Python. 💡
Here are some takeaways I keep coming back to:
Content warning:Screenshot of Java Solution and Improved Python solution
My friend challenged me to write the solution in Java since I have been learning the language to teach my son and his friends for their robotics team... so here is my Java solution.
In writing the Java solution I found some ways I could refactor the Python one, so I also went back in trimmed that one a bit too.

Content warning:Advent of Code, Day 1, Python
I've got no expectation of even trying to keep up with #AdventOfCode this year as I'm really busy for the next few days. But I've found time to help the elves out with Day 1.
Learning some #Python and remembering that thinking first is usually the best plan!

Content warning:Advent of Code 2025 Day One Spoilers
As you might expect, #adventofcode2025 day one was pretty straightforward, modulo (hehe) a little tricky bit with calculating rotations when you're already at zero that slowed me down on part two for longer than I'd have liked.
I wrote the `rotate` function after seeing that part two was basically the same as part one, except we also need to keep track of the number of total rotations (that is, passes across zero).
Looking forward to the next problems (even if there are only 11 rather than 24 remaining this year 😢).
