this collection of thoughts on software development gathered by grug brain developer

grug brain developer not so smart, but grug brain developer program many long year and learn some things although mostly still confused

grug brain developer try collect learns into small, easily digestible and funny page, not only for you, the young grug, but also for him because as grug brain developer get older he forget important things, like what had for breakfast or if put pants on

Alexithymia is a difficulty recognizing emotions, and is sometimes seen along with depression, autism, or brain injury, among other conditions.

In this video, we adapt a clumsy, non-Pythonic API into an easy to use, easy to understand Pythonic one. We use magic methods such as getitem_, len, enter, and _exit to make our objects a context manager and support the len() function and square bracket indexing. And in the end, we turn what once was ugly, difficult to maintain code into something that other developers would actually want to use.

In the photo on RNZ there are two overflowing tanks with a bank behind them. You can spot the tanks on Google Maps, next to the middle shed:

The web is fucked and there’s nothing we can do about it. Kev Quirk looks back fondly at Web 1.0.

Hi, I’m David, a Python developer at Kraken Technologies. I work on Kraken: a Python application which has, at last count, 27,637 modules. Yes, you read that right: nearly 28k separate Python files - not including tests. I do this along with 400 other developers worldwide, constantly merging in code. And all anyone needs to make a change - and kick start a deployment of the software that runs 17 different energy and utility companies, with many millions of customers - is one single approval from a colleague on Github.

Now you may be thinking this sounds like a recipe for chaos. Honestly, I would have said the same. But it turns out that large numbers of developers can, at least in the domain we work in, work effectively on a large Python monolith. There are lots of reasons why this is possible, many of them cultural rather than technical, but in this blog post I want to explain about how the organisation of our code helps to make this possible.

Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk.

Using generative AI (like ChatGPT) in business improves users’ performance by 66%, averaged across 3 case studies. More complex tasks have bigger gains, and less-skilled workers benefit the most from AI use.

To crop an image effectively, it’s important to prioritize a specific part of the image and preserve the essential content around it. One way to achieve this is by identifying the image’s ‘focal point’ - the part of the image that is most important - and cropping the image around it.

In this post, I’ll walk you through my technique for cropping images with CSS while preserving the image’s focal point.
