The beta release for version 2 of @skytemple Randomizer is out! It's completely rewritten in GTK 4 and Adwaita and runs on Linux (Flathub), macOS and Windows!

Thanks to Workbench, Blueprint Compiler and GNOME's HIG redesigning the UI was actually a lot of fun, and the new UX just feels so nice and satisfying to work with.

Next up is migrating the SkyTemple main app to GTK 4 as well!

Python has seen significant performance improvements in the last few releases. MarkupSafe has a C extension to speed up operations, but it's now *slower* in many cases than the plain Python implementation. Having a C extension increases the difficulty of maintenance, builds, releases, and installs. I'm wondering if it's time to drop the speedups. github.com/pallets/markupsafe/… #Python #MarkupSafe #Flask

Should we remove the C extension? · Issue #433 · pallets/markupsafe

It turns out that Python 3.12 is way faster at string operations than when MarkupSafe and its speedups were written. After running some benchmarks on short and long strings with and without HTML, b...

Jupyter notebooks in 2024 is still not accessible.

In his #PyCascades talk, Venkatesh Potluri (who is blind) noted that popular Python libraries like matplotlib etc still can't embed alt text.

He made a patch for it, but the notebooks still don't pick up alt text.

The announcement begins: Python 1.0.0 is out! Guido van Rossum 27 Jan 1994, 12:35:06 --> Tired of decyphering the Perl code you wrote last week? --> Frustrated with Bourne shell syntax? --> Spent too much time staring at core dumps lately? Maybe you should try Python, the next generation object-oriented scripting and prototyping language, with a *readable* syntax. Python has been used by hundreds of happy users all over the world during the past three years, and is now ready for prime time. Python is an interpreted language, and has the usual advantages of such languages, such as run-time checks (e.g. bounds checking), execution of dynamically generated code, automatic memory allocation, high level operations on strings, lists and dictionaries (associative arrays), and a fast edit-compile-run cycle. Additionally, it features modules, classes, exceptions, and dynamic linking of extensions written in C or C++. It has arbitrary precision integers. Python can be run interactively, and there is an extensive Emacs editing mode which includes the capability to execute regions of code. For the truly desperate there is a source level debugger (written in Python, of course :-). Python comes with a large library of standard modules and classes, as well as an extensive set of demo programs. It has interfaces to most Unix system calls and library functions, and there exist extensions that interface to window systems and graphics libraries like X and SGI's GL.

The #Kivy UI framework for #Python has been completely inaccessible to screen reader users for many years. But my colleague Arnold Loubriat is working on fixing that, using #AccessKit, particularly the Python bindings that he developed. There's still a long way to go on this project, but he has posted his work in progress here: github.com/DataTriny/kivy/tree… And here's the tracking issue: github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/85…

So I've been working with GTK4/Libadwaita in Python (in Flatpak), and I'm trying to get notifications to work.

I keep getting this error: "gi.repository.GLib.GError: g-io-error-quark: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.Notifications: Timeout was reached (24)"

Am I missing Flatpak overrides? (Docs seem to say no docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/por… )

Am I doing this wrong? (Code at github.com/TheKrafter/Grouping… )

My task was to wrote a custom import module in #python that can read data from an excel xlsx document. I had end up implementing it by using #xlrd module initially and later on I discovered it no longer handles xlsx files thus I converted it to use #openpyxl instead.

I'm looking for a new job, or contract work, for the first time in a while - boosts appreciated!

I'm a polyglot programmer, with a wide range of experience behind me, from developing firmware that runs on 8-bit AVR, to highly distributed systems across hundreds of nodes, I covered pretty much the whole landscape.

I had my fair share of Ops experience too, and worked in (technical) Customer Service aswell.

I speak many languages (#C, #Rust, #Lua, #Python, #JavaScript, some #Go among them), but I pride myself in being able to pick up a new language at a decent level between signing a contract and starting on the job.

I'm a #Linux guy through and through, and have very little experience (or desire) to work with anything else, save maybe for the BSDs. I worked with containers, databases (relational and otherwise); in the cloud and on premises. I can debug, I can mentor, I can teach, and build, and integrate (continuously, even!). I'm not afraid of git rebase, nor of a crowd to speak in front of.

I live in Hungary, and am seeking remote work. I cannot relocate.

If you are someone looking for something like that, or know someone who is, please get in touch. My CV - with contacts - is available here.

Happy Monday! I am looking for work.

I am looking for a role related to compilers ideally, but I'm also capable in numerical computing and back-end roles. I have experience with #Rust 🦀 and #Python 🐍 .

I have a deep knowledge of Python from working on #mypy and CPython itself. The quantum compiler I worked on was a mixed Python/Rust codebase.

I'm looking for remote/hybrid near SF Bay Area.

Hello #Fediverse! #Pinetta is a decentralized FOSS social pinboard in the style of Pinterest. After a month of planning, we've settled on a basic game plan and are opening up our @Codeberg repo for contributions from devs and designers!

We'll be working on a prototype that uses #Python and #Django to get the basic functionality working. We'll also be hosting weekly sharing sessions on #CommunityBuilding principles to develop our Code of Conduct and a larger framework for community wellness. 🥳

Repeated the #compression #benchmark with the same file on a beefier machine (AMD Ryzen 9 5950X), results are quite identical, except faster overall.

This plot is also interesting:

- #gzip and #lz4 have fixed (!) and very low RAM usage across levels and compression/decompression
- #xz RAM usage scales with the level from a couple of MBs (0) to nearly a GB (9)
- #zstd RAM usage scales weirdly with level but not as extreme as #xz

#Python #matplotlib

Plot RAM at compression vs RAM at decompression for different compression algorithms. gzip very low RAM, lz4 a little more, xz increasing strongly with the level, zstd not as prominently
#python #compression #zstd #xz #matplotlib #gzip #lz4 #benchmark

First results of my #compression algorithm benchmark run on a 72MB CSV file. It seems #zstd really has something for everybody, though it can't reach #xz's insane (but slow) compression ratios at maximum settings.

This chart includes multithreaded runs for #zstd.

Very interesting! 🧐

Input file used for the benchmark. A CSV file with a very long header, then columns with a unix timestamp in the first column, then only one column is filled in every row, giving a cascading look to the file. It's atmospheric temperature, humidity and pressure data from several Sensirion SCD30 sensors.
