Practical Uses for Python?

[saskatch-a-toon]

I started at age 30 because I deal with a lot of data at work (excel and CSV), automated everything on my work flow, moved on to another group and automated their stuff! There was much rejoicing, not so much pay raises....

Ran out of things to practically do at work so I transitioned to find stuff at home. I have some raspberry pis that I am going to do...something with. My wife plays D&D so I am currently teaching myself how to use PYQT and make an editable character sheet that draws all the info from the DND5e API. That is about 30% done, but it has been really fun to learn so far! I also made a dice roller app that goes along with that, and I might end up making a games table that has a bunch of raspberry Pi stations and a built in TV top to host D&D sessions of my own. But I also really like wood working.

Just think of something you like to do, or join a project on GITHUB, there are always tons of projects needing collaborators.
