God damn, Ian has been releasing super creative code since before I started paying serious attention to Python circa 2005. Great to start 2023 with another one.

- DonHopkins 4y agoAbsolutely right: Ian is one of the best Python programmers and technical writers ("blogger" just doesn't capture it) whose prose and code I've ever had the pleasure of reading and using for decades. (I'm still maintaining a TurboGears project using his SQLObject library even today, which I gleefully adopted as a traumatized Zope refugee.) If I had an open position worthy of his talents, I would move heaven and earth to work with him. https://ianbicking.org/events-and-sqlobject.html https://ianbicking.org/events-and-sqlobject.html https://ianbicking.org/archive/sqlobject-and-me.html https://ianbicking.org/archive/sqlobject-and-me.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLObject https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLObject Edit: In case you have "show dead" enabled, I'd like to add that smohare has no fucking clue what he's shit talking about, but by looking at his dead downvoted posting history and useless comments and worthless opinions, to be jealously insulted by him is the highest complement.
