Yeah that works pretty well too. I think there’s some minor advantages of having them in apps, they’re sorted neatly in the admin, you’re forced to split views, models, templates, admin, etc together which keeps things a bit cleaner. But it

I’ve never successfully isolated them in the sense of having no cross imports, but I think there are advantages keeping the code broken up anyway.

I would add to this list: convert your template engine to Jinja2. I held out for a long time on this, and now I would not go back. The purist approach ("keep logic out of templates") sounds good, but in practice leads to spaghetti

I used to build everything with one giant “monoapp” and completely ignore that aspect of Django, which worked pretty well. Eventually though you need to split up your models into multiple files, and then your views, and admin, and so on, an

> I don't see a difference between what Google indexes on its search engine, and what CoPilot can recommend. That is an extremely disingenuous take. It produces novel output, so is not merely an “index” in any sense of the word.

It doesn’t really “regurgitate code” all that much in practice though. It’s a super impressive product and these arguments seem more like people looking for an excuse to hate new, scary technology.

You’re missing the major point that bikes go much slower than cars, so it makes sense for traffic flow to let cars pass safely.

I remember Linear Algebra and its Applications by David Lay was very approachable and had good visuals. It’s a small book that sticks to the main points.

Static site generators (Jekyll, Hugo) are one example. Sometimes you can get away with markdown but often you end up marking up pages of text.

Does anyone remember “liquid war”, where you battled with another player to control a lump of fluid and engulf the other person? I really really want to play that, two player, on my phone over network where my finger controls the liquid.
