That sort of patch is clearly fixing something that blocked him, and probably blocked many others who didn't get as far as trying to fix it. A project should take on useful small patches, thats how you onboard contributors.

It's so easy to add bits to the admin as you need them. I wish building the frontend of a Django app was as easy as the admin (though Wagtail can get close and HTMX).

Wagtail is great for what it's good at. If you've ever had to use Django-CMS you'd understand. I went from a Wagtail project to a Django-CMS project (at a company that was upstreaming bits to Django-CMS) and there were so man

Yes, the previous time I tried to use FastAPI I moved the project to Django-Ninja and development accelerated massively. Django has so many things that just work - I take storing the session in the database for granted and there were only h

Exactly. I can be in a non-technical team, and put the LLM code inside docker. The local dev instruction is to install ollama and use it to pull the models and set some env vars. The same code can point at bedrock when deployed there. Using

Maybe they will sort out how terrible it is to try and use a keyboard or keyboard like (i.e. remote control on android TV) on Android apps, I hold out little hope. It's like nobody tests focus + navigation at all.

Unfortunately because the top end of the salary is limited, to get people to work on stuff they need to bring in contractors to fill out the teams for many projects.

The US investment link is broken, and most of the UK jobs are in "fullfillment", some of the least fullfilling jobs - piss bottles all round.

Nice. As a mostly-django-dev for the last 15 years, who's been exposed to FastAPI and various ORMs again recently, I should get round to write a doc about some Django bits. Django is pretty nice, the changes between versions are small

LLMs have some terrible patterns, don't know what do ? Just chuck a class named Service in. Have to really look out for the crap.

Current one was 150 quid off Ebay, I've also used backmarket. Last time I had a "flagship" phone it got stolen out my hand. The screen was also expensive to replace. If I drop this its no big deal (the back is plastic anyway)
