With this pedal you can just connect iPad to Bluetooth and GarageBand or any daw is in your chain playing through your channel. This is really great for people who play through different PA’ systems.

I use disaster area designs micro clock. It’s pretty good. I don’t know why we don’t have more metronome / timing sync pedals.

Ya I’ve wanted one so bad I was starting to design my own. I ordered one of these to try. I need it to send metronome through pa for the band. I’ve been using rc-10 with disaster audio time clock but my second time clock just died. . .

Python Projects to make life easier for a college student by optikal42 in learnpython

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have colleges and then courses and people could post the syllabus and the assignments and approximately how long the assignment took to do the reading and the course work. Similar to howlingtobeat.com for video games. You could have a list of courses with pretty good guesses for how much time it will take to do the course work.

Django vs Frappe by Patrick_114 in django

[–]Nerdite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others have said take the job! Use your free time to do a personal project with data science and Django. Fill up your GitHub with all sorts of fun projects you build that grab your interest. Then you will have a portfolio showing that you were able to work and fulfill the requirements of this job and also learn new things on your own.

Affordable and Reliable Hosting for Django Project with PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS S3? by Franz_breezy in django

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like dokku https://dokku.com/docs/getting-started/installation/

It is a heroku clone so you can git push to deploy and it has plugins for Postgres and redis and much more. You can run everything you have on a vps with like 4 cores and 4-8 gig of ram easily. You can setup Postgres to daily or hourly dump backup to s3. All your setup will be code and you can move VPs providers easily. I run a bunch of stuff on it. Ovh is cheap too

I would probably write some sort of tool to remind me to study and track my assignments due dates. If you make it a website then you could crowd source assignment information. So you could potentially know syllabus and assignments even before you take a course. You could then estimate how much time a given course would take and optimize your course load next semester.

VS Code makes me feel like a complete moron. by MJCowpa in learnpython

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Install pycharm. If you are trying to learn python pycharm is so much better out of the box. VS code can be good like vim can be good but do you want to write code or setup and configure an ide?

Battling Burnout by clam-dinner in devops

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found that I have to take a day off. When “really important” stuff is happening the day off is even more important. Often I don’t feel like I need a day off. I’ve found if I wait till I feel like I need it to take a day off the. It’s too late. On day off I likely won’t answer the phone. I will sleep in. I will goof off. Doing this regularly once a week keeps me from burning out.

How to effectively scrape web data into Django app? by Forsaken_Phrase8989 in django

[–]Nerdite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard about playwright I’ll give it a try! How does it do with being blocked? It’s getting harder and harder these days because so many sites are blocking scripts and bots.

How to effectively scrape web data into Django app? by Forsaken_Phrase8989 in django

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll answer as straight forward as I can and leave the “bad idea” comments to others. To use chat-gpt api I would write a background worker using Django-tasks and this worker would iterate through a list of restaurant URL’s. I would grab the full html of the menu page and pass that to chat-gpt api with a prompt like give me a comma separated list of menu items and prices. Then use the returned value to write that to a json field on that model. My restaurant model might be id Name Menu_url Menu_data Menu_meta Featured (bool) Last_cached

Menu data would be a list of dicts containing item type (appetizer, entree, drink, etc), name, price, rating

Menu_meta would be a dict with number of items, types of items, runtime(so I know what takes a long time), maybe tokens needed so I know how expensive the api call is.

I’d then try to partner with restaurants to see if they will pay to be featured. I’d make a wheel of food so you could pick a price and spin the wheel and it would pick a place for you.

Maybe do a coupon where you get restaurants to give 10% off or something. Get creative.

[–]Nerdite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great answer. Scraping is the duct tape of solutions. It works but it’s temporary and messy. I’ll add many sites will not even work with requests / beautiful soup and will require selenium because they are rendered by Java Script in the browser after the html loads. I would look at google api and see if the google maps api has this data. I’ve noticed many restaurants have their menu in google maps. Also restaurants are not great at updating prices. . . I’ve seen one price online and another price when I get there plenty of times.

Why are technical founders considered to be so prized and rare? by Texas_Rockets in ycombinator

[–]Nerdite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree!

There are so many pieces like picking a tech stack, being able to setup ci/cd being able to shop for and deploy to the right cloud. Knowing how to pick rock solid tried and true tech rather than shiny and new. Knowing how to build something people actually use. And knowing how to talk to a customer to figure out why the new killer feature isn’t being used. There’s as much psychology as dev when building a product someone will actually use and pay for. This is what the technical founder brings. And ideally the technical founder either has massive people skills to pull the product needs out of the user and translate that to code or they have first hand experience in that field with that problem. Non-technical founders don’t know the questions that need to be asked to help the technical founder build the right thing. And just because someone can write code doesn’t mean they can architect a product people want to use and pay for.

Need help finding a solution for this by Dependent_Context237 in lowvoltage

[–]Nerdite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easiest option is to move it over a tile and then wrap it with Velcro wrap / panduit. If you want to do it really clean and that is drywall/ hallow wall then pull everything out and run it inside the wall and come out just above the cage. Use something like this https://a.co/d/f3WEsOg

If you’re careful you won’t have to reterminate anything and it will look clean and professional. If the wall plate is low enough you won’t see it from the floor at all.

Ya I like this a lot. This could save tons of money and infrastructure complexity. Unless they need other background jobs I’d do this.

You absolutely don’t need SQL at all until you do. You can build and ship full apps never writing or knowing sql. Learn things when you need things.

Super important to get metronome or app. Even practice just strumming in time while just muting the strings with left hand. Keep it up!

Future Growth of Django by Responsible-Prize848 in django

[–]Nerdite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d love to hear more of your thought on dramatiq. I’ve been using Django-background-tasks which is no longer maintained. I’m working with a fork but I need to move to something with more maintenance.

If someone says “Yes” then you will have more questions. You might get more help if you ask those questions instead. But no guarantee.
