Worthy Read

PEP
This stylized presentation of the well-established PEP 8 was created by Kenneth Reitz (for humans).

docker
"We created sidomo - Simple Docker Module* so that if you can get your weirdo app to run in any linux environment, then you can instantly call it from Python with zero added effort." - I highly recommend that you read this. It's pretty awesome

Python toolkit that reads any JSON formatted Swagger (Open API) schema and generates methods for making requests to operations defined in the schema.

django
A big update to the beloved Python web framework known as Django was released recently: Django 1.9. This release contains a long list of improvements for everything from the graphical styling of the admin to the ability to run your test suite in parallel.

We have opened up the early-bird sales today and tickets are selling fast. The first 100 early-bird tickets, we have available, will be gone in an hour. If you want to benefit from reduced ticket prices too, please register soon.Our early bird ticket sales are limited to 300 tickets. Regular ticket sales will start shortly after we’ve ended the early bird sales.

In basketball, we typically talk about 5 positions: point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, and center. Based on this, one might expect NBA players to fall into 5 distinct groups- Point guards perform similar to other point guards, shooting guards perform similar to other shooting guards, etc. Is this the case? Do NBA players fall neatly into position groups?

django
Have you ever wanted to combine two or more dictionaries in Python? There are multiple ways to solve this problem: some are awkward, some are inaccurate, and most require multiple lines of code. Let’s walk through the different ways of solving this problem and discuss which is the most Pythonic.

Yet again I missed out on a getting a talk into PyCon US. The title of my proposed talk was the same as this blog post. Since it wasn’t accepted, I thought I might instead use a blog post to give a sneak peek at some of the more recent work I have been doing on Python web application deployment, which I otherwise would have described a bit about in my talk if it had been accepted.

flask
In a few of my client projects, we’ve discussed giving up on Django and moving to a microframework, typically when the clients want to do some interesting stuff (in one case, for example, embedding ZeroMQ in the application object) and the project goals seem more difficult to achieve with Django.

django
We launched Cronitor in June 2014 after a few weeks of hacking on an MVP. With an eye on shipping quickly we built everything within Django, including our crucial ping tracking endpoints, and it was a valuable force multiplier. The first version of our tracker was a normal view function that persisted directly to the database. Keep it simple, right?

When healthchecks.io started to receive more than 1 request per second, it became clear I could not just go on carelessly restarting web servers after code deploys. For a monitoring service, it would be bad form to miss even a few HTTP requests. And, going forward, if the server gets busier, the problem only becomes bigger.
