still can't fix a container whose entry-point fail. Or the doc search is shit. Or something.
I guess that's why everyone uses it. Like Windows.
I love Fast API as a framework, but God is their style of documentation awful.
I didn't think I'd ever complain about something being over documented, but Tiangolo frameworks definitely suffer from that problem.
@jscholes TBH, one of the better resources to learn about how to use that stack properly is looking at polarsource/polar on Github (Apache) and trying to figure out why they do the things they do, in the way they do them.
We're not copying blindly of course, but took plenty of inspiration from that codebase.
@jscholes Basically the way you accept data in Fast API is by having arguments in your handlers and annotating them with types. If the argument has the same name as an argument in the path, it's taken from the path. Otherwise, it's taken as a query param if it's a simple type, deserialized from JSON if a Pydantic model. You can use Annotated[type, annotation] to influence this behavior.
That was 4 sentences, and would grow to 10 if you described the annotations. The actual description is half a dozen subpages with copious examples.
Working on it doesn't seem to come up as a phrase you can get rid of with the JAWS Notification manager.
For posterity's sake, a fix for Gaggia coffee makers giving you "Error 5" on first run.
I read that the official Mastodon instance of the Swiss government will be closing down.
They say there are few active users, low engagement, and minimal interaction, which seems quite plausible. Additionally, they claim that "on platforms like X or Instagram, the Federal Council and the Federal Administration have many more followers." I believe that too, of course.
However, I do not agree with their decision. I think a government shouldn’t be overly concerned about follower counts and interactions, but rather about providing free, autonomous communication that is independent of third-party companies. In my view, a government shouldn’t operate like a business focused on "numbers."
Still, I appreciate their experiment - many governments, like the Italian one, haven’t even tried.
Regarding costs and management effort: an instance with 5 users and 3,500 followers (numbers provided by them) can run on a VPS for €3 a month and doesn't require heavy moderation. The cost for them is nearly zero. Yet, the freedom of information and discussion, especially for a Neutral Country, should always be a priority.
I believe that maintaining control over one’s information channels is crucial, especially in today's world. But, I fear that decision-makers only consider the numbers, which often favor the flashiest - but worse - solutions.
Encouraging citizens to use closed platforms is, in my opinion, a wrong choice.
Thanks to the Swiss government for at least giving it a shot.

The cost isn't 0, as the risk is potentially unbounded.
Imagine if somebody hacks into the VPS, waits for a Twitter outage, and posts a message from a top government official that Zurich is under imminent nuclear attack from Russia, then conveniently forwards the link to that official government instance to all the media.
Monoculture is always a problem.
@miki
I would argue that hacking into the (correctly set up, maintained and updated) VPS is harder than hacking into Twitter
One can also employ better protection against such vulnerabilities: move official accounts to another instance and lock the login page behind the firewall, allowing only connections from inside their office network. This is a trivial task.

Something to add to your CSS reset from now on:
```
:root {
interpolate-size: allow-keywords;
}
```
It enables things like transitions from `height: 0` to `height: auto`.

Nestěhujeme se. Výherce nabídl o třetinu víc než my. Jsem fakt smutná. Nejen kvůli tomu že jsme nevyhráli, ale že na mě z toho padla beznaděj. Ceny nájmů v Praze jsou strašně vysoký a když přijde nějaká takováhle šance, stejně se najde někdo, kdo může a dá mnohonásobně víc, než si my můžeme dovolit.
Jdu si někak poplakat, než se oklepu.

Big news! We’re partnering with Meta to bring hands-free accessibility to the blind & low-vision community through our Call a Volunteer feature on Ray Ban Meta smart glasses! Coming soon in the US, Canada, UK, Ireland & Australia!
With all that’s mentioned in the article, plus Be My Eyes integrated directly, I think any blind person who may have been on the fence re these glasses may need to climb off it. Meta updates Ray-Ban smart glasses with real-time AI video, reminders, and QR code scanning

I’m super excited about this blogpost. The approach is so counterintuitive, and yet the results are so much better than anything else that we’ve tried for memory safety. We finally understand why.
