Gonna make a web comic about Django
Does anyone in my Django world use Scalingo for hosting? I hadn't heard of it until today, but they've been around for over a decade!
It seems like every time Heroku comes closer to actually closing its doors, we learn about new hosting options.
I've released sphinxcontrib-httpdomain 2.0.0. This Sphinx extension documents HTTP APIs. It's used by the Plone REST API, #Flask, #Bottle, and #Tornado Python web application frameworks.

Will #Django REST Framework be next? See the open PR that needs help.

@mirandah @django @jacob from one of Jacob’s interviews, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqcuzSwySR4
@mirandah @django @jacob another quote from the same source,
“T]he one that annoys me personally is Facebook buys Instagram for a billion dollars, and Instagram has not donated a cent or a line of code to #Django or to #Python which they built that on top of. There is so much money around open source, there is not a company out there that is not directly more profitable because they're using free software and yet very very few people actually are getting paid for their work on open source.’”
I couldn’t be happier or prouder, and it's all thanks to a spare-time open-source project.
Someone just shared that they created their own version of Leave X - Protect Democracy, mapping Canadian politicians on the Fediverse. 🇨🇦✨
After restarting the project a few days ago and adding statistics about European politicians on X, I was surprised when someone contributed data from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 in less than 24 hours.
A few days later, an anonymous contributor used the power of open data to send data from Austria 🇦🇹. Recently, someone from Sweden 🇸🇪 has joined in as well.
This is what open source looks like: distributed, collaborative, and driven by shared values.
This weekend, I'll be at FODESM, where I hope to speak with politicians and tell them, loud and clear:
Ditch the autocrats’ propaganda.
Leave X. Now.
#MastoCanadaGOV #Canada #LeaveX #Europe #EUPol #Democracy #FOSDEM #OpenSource #Fediverse #Mastodon
And a cool thing is that they made their project in Python! 💜

Fediverse pals, I'm currently #OpenToWork!
The backbone of my experience is big #Python and #Django B2B apps, but I'm open to other ways to apply those skills.

After some time thinking about starting my own business. I’m launching Tyn studio - a calm studio for bold ideas.
https://tynstudio.com
I decided to build the type of company I would like to work for. A place that values craftsmanship, and partnership with others to create solutions.
Give it a look, and if you want to chat, say hello, or connect, I’ll be happy to!!
