ty - Python type checker https://lobste.rs/s/e0s8iu #python
https://docs.astral.sh/ty/
๐ Oh joy, another tool to check if your #Python code isn't a complete disaster, written in #Rust because why not mix two languages for the price of one? ๐ Bask in the #irony as you type-check your way into a pit of configuration and concepts, hoping to discover the module that just might save you. ๐ Enjoy your 'Getting Started' journey, because you're going to need all the guidance you can get. ๐

Also! If you want a useful-but-not-intrusive solution template for #AdventOfCode in #Python, look no further. I've been using and perfecting this one for years.
It does a great job letting you focus on your solution instead of writing parsing boilerplate.

#AdventOfCode is starting soon!!
I'll be doing it in #Python, per usual (but probably a day or two behind).
When I _do_ solve them, I'll write about each puzzle on my AoC blog. There's an #RSS feed if you want to stay up to date:

Spent the weekend writing Python code to interface with solar power MPPT controllers via bluetooth, exporting the data via a custom Prometheus exporter, and dashboarding the data in Grafana.
Back to "real" responsibilities tomorrow.
What did you work on this weekend?
