Ask HN: What are some of the better Python blogs?
I'm working on a Python project right now and time and time again I keep discovering that there are far easier ways to do things than what I've done.
Where can I find some good blogs or similar that write about Python and Pythonic ways to do things?
Presently discovering so many ways I could use pytest more efficiently than I already was doing.
Would love to discover what else I'm missing out on, had I known about:
pandera
pydantic (omg, BaseSettings!)
requests_mock
pytest_cases
__post_init__ (dataclasses)
kw_only (dataclasses)
(potentially) hamilton
vulture
isort (although I really wish I'd remove unused imports)
earlier I believe I could've saved a lot of time, and some bugs.
Things that already were on my radar,
Poetry (this was maybe a mistake to use tbh)
mypy + plugins
black
flake8
hypothesis
Presently I'm looking for a clean way to use GraphQL around InfluxDB.

- quickthrower2 4y agoI think this is good for the scenario where python is not your main language, but you have to use it occasionally and just want to get shit done. Whereas I think training python code through the neural net behind your eyes will be more efficient in the long run if you expect to do a lot of python.
