Link? The only "macro" library I've seen for python has been "MetaPython" ( http://metapython.org/ ), which is more of a let down than it is useful, unfortunately.

Good question. Monday night's meetup had these presentations: John Britton: Dinevore ( http://www.dinevore.com/ ) mobile app, built on Titanium Appcelerator ( http://www.appcelerator.com/products/titanium-mobile-appl... ) Nathan Hamblen: Pi

I don't mind the group getting bigger--that means a larger pool of projects, and a larger variety of presenters. But, if I only have space for 50 people, and 50 "leechers" RSVP before I have 7 presenters, that's a problem. Sure, they could

It's not that much in all honesty, but then again, I already have a place to meetup (at Meetup, which also provides us beer and regular drinks). All in all it's probably about 5 hours a month, in addition to about an hour total for setup

I don't think I'd have done it, honestly, if I hadn't started working at Meetup. It's the kind of thing that does take time to organize, but I really wanted to discover what Meetup organizers go through. It's been all kinds of rewarding, fu

What exactly are you voting on? This isn't a competition. I should also note that I hand select the people that actually present after taking a look at the product description and a) checking to see that it doesn't violate the "no startup",

I'll list it on the site! What do you need for organization? Or is this thread enough?

While I knew this was possible, I'd never considered it. However, with HipHop ( http://github.com/facebook/hiphop-php/wiki ), this might actually be an acceptable and great way to develop desktop applications.

This reminds me of parrotsecrets.com, and the other ebook promo sites out there that bombard you with content to sell you something. Though, this is much more appealing visually.

I'm wondering if they discovered later that sponsoring a visa is more work than they originally thought, and that's what happened.

At first glance I was thinking this was prototypal, but upon a second look, it doesn't seem to be. It does however, seem like this approach would make it easy to get prototypal inheritance, no?

I know this, however, Zed was using this for a shell command, not as an embedded scripting language.

This is an insane idea. I should not have to have a whole other version of python just to run a language independent web server. The choice Zed made is a great choice--all the functionality of the original python m2sh is present in th

Hilariously enough, I took the time to make sure the new config file format for m2sh was nearly perfectly backwards compatible with the old file. This is pretty funny because I predict nobody will blink an eye at the config file, even thou
