Pool does not seem to handle re-initializing connections that are closed by the PostgreSQL database itself (restarts, bad connections, etc.). Am I missing something?

Agree. Any database design over two tables should include review of NF.

Been writing Python code for about 10 years (C/Pascal/Assembly-style languages for 20 years prior to that) and was interested in Go for specific advantages: - coroutines - channels - simple one-file delivery - cross pl

Look forward to trying this. Good to see so much attention being paid to Pythons async architecture.

I think async and aiohttp are game changes for Python 3.5. After working with Twisted callbacks for over a decade, it's a pleasure to write async code that does not use the callback approach (granted Twisted is a mature environment wit

I was just listening to Theo's pledge presentation ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_7S1eqKsFk ) and immediately wondered how this is applied to scripting languages. The github link for Python seems to be a high-level

Concur with the 'thought process.' I'm a happier person after a day of writing Python than I am after a day of writing Go. Environments take a long time to mature. Python finally has module packaging down fairly well (Go stil

Can you tell me how wide I have to open our Firewalls to get to your servers? (i.e., 1 or 2 IPs or an entire AWS range). We're in a locked-down compliance environment and opening all our servers to a wide range of external IP addresses

TAoCP is more computer science than computer programming. For the typical programmer, most of what is covered in TAoCP is buried in pre-existing libraries and modules. As for MIX/MIXAL (MIX is the computer, MIXAL is the MIX Assembly La

I think one thing that stalled adoption was the difficulty of migrating to Unicode string constants. In Python 2, you could make a unicode string as u"Entré", but in Python 3, the 'u' was not permitted. Allowing the supe

About three months ago I started a serious attempt to port my projects from Python v2 to v3. Although I do not deploy on OS X, I do a fair bit of development on OS X. My setup: 1) never use the system Python for development. 2) install Pyth

Python packaging (particularly on Windows) is a definite pain point. That "no module named zope interface" is apparently due to the base Zope module not having an __init__.py. Every single time I install I have to manually add tha

Not only the base Unix underpinnings, but the sheer lack of support tools on Windows vs. Mac is frustrating. - network problems? just try a quick curl (not on Windows) - did a file transfer properly? do a quick md5 hash (not on Windows

On remote servers: VIM since it is extremely likely to be installed. On desktop: Emacs in EVIL (VIM) mode. Love the quick key-navigation capabilities I get from VIM backed by the expressive power of Emacs.

Non-commercial (CentOS) for all my development environments. Don't need to worry about licensing fees -- simply spin-up another VMWare instance. Commercial (Red Hat) for production. Corporate clients want commercial support.
