Sorry, I do not speak Portuguese! However, I could easily find-out what the snippet was doing by simple logic. I have been teaching programming/data for the past 2 years and you're right, simplification is of utmost importance for

The french pseudo-code reminded me of my freshman year in Computer Science degree, so much nostalgia! Completely forgot about all that since then, but I wonder if using your mother tongue to learn programming is truly effective, especially

Dynamic configuration is the first step, second step is the validation of configuration. To that aim, one can use Pydantic Settings management with extensive validation to avoid footguns down the road. If validation is configured properly,

Your method resonates as a self-nano-implementation of "Learning By Teaching" methodology[1] and "Rubber Duck Debugging"[2]. I regularly work with students using "active learning" methods and having people expr

And then there is the manager in the middle that had a previous tech background from 10 years ago but never took the opportunity to keep up. This type of guy tries to explain to you the task at hand used to be done in a matter of hours when

Nice read thanks! In the same vein of gathering good data and finding the resonating solution to customers problems, Small Data[1] by Martin Lindstrom is another great read with a sociological approach, focused on branding but nonetheless o

You can use use Jupyter Notebooks like Markdown files, with the added benefit of code blocks being executable for reproducible work. Then, just throw your notebooks into MkDocs (using a plugin) and voila, you get a statically hostable versi

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted, SQLite is a perfect companion for local adhoc data analysis, up to a few GB of data. It is even supported by OSS BI tools like Metabase, so its a no brainer compared to a full blown PG!

So it’s a visual wrapper around SQLite?

A good reason is because Java was explicitly engineered and targeted towards enterprise use-cases from the beginning by Sun, whereas Python was created as a mean to teach programming with a simpler language.

Mmmh interesting requirement! Indeed, defining very nested structure with Pydantic is one of its weaknesses. And of course I agree 100% about tradoffs in engineering. However I usually advise against using 2 dependencies doing mainly the sa

You can use the now widely adopted Great Expections[0] library, which fits exactly this use-case for data validation! [0] https://greatexpectations.io

If only for conciseness, readability and speed, I'd take Pydantic over any day. Being able to express 80% of type checking using Python native type hints + dataclasses is just so intuitive! And it's getting some wide adoption, for

As an alternative to MATLAB/Octave, may I suggest using Python with Jupyter Notebooks? For exploratory/analysis/prototyping work, I have not found a better platform and ecosystem. These notebooks are really powerful feature-w
