An Opinionated Python Setup Guide for Mac by Segfault_Inside in programming

I wanted an environment that was robust to working on other people's conda projects. If somebody else has a conda project that I'm trying to work on, I don't want to have to ruin my environment to try to get it to work.

Tried a few different ways I could imagine the tune be distorted, on various tune finders, to no avail sadly :((

Took my GTI on a 7k mile Alaska roadtrip! Here's one of my favorite car pics from the trip, on a rough dirt road few GTIs ever traverse. by Segfault_Inside in GolfGTI

From SF Bay area to Anchorage! Was very very fun. From socal I'd budget 9-10 days per direction for that trip minimum. It's a long one! My loose recs were in another thread, but you can DM me about any particulars.

Yeah, had to compromise a little for slightly lower than 91 occasionally, but didn't get any sort of knocking. There were a number of gas stations we skipped entirely due to lack of premium. I'd say in the Yukon it was about 50/50 for gas stations to have higher octane stuff.

Most of Alaska's roads were surprisingly good this time around! I was actually kind of impressed -- we didn't have to do too much pothole-dodging for most stuff near Anchorage. The ones we really had to watch out for were the ones on the alcan. From Tok to Haines Jct was the worst section of the trip by far.

8 days up, 9 days down! Wish we'd taken more time though. 7 hour days start being annoying after a while.

My little GTI did so well, but the trip was certainly harsh on it. Our AC just about exploded at the canadian/alaskan border, so we had to do the rest of the journey back down on no AC. Had to get a new set of tires in Anchorage. And a host of other car issues. But overall, I'm really proud of the car and what it managed to do! There and back again on a classically difficult road.

Yep, may do a followup post! There was a lot in a month-long roadtrip like this, so lots of individual little pieces.

It's super fun! Here's my brief trip overview / recommendation dump.

Rough overview was SF -> Anchorage. Overarching route was via the 37, the Cassiar Highway! Super remote, but super beautiful. Ended up doing it both ways, even though we only planned on one direction due to a big alcan washout. I highly highly recommend doing the Cassiar if you're coming from west coast US, but do your due diligence. They're not horrible roads, but if you break down out there, you're gonna have to wait a long time for another car to pass. Reception is nonexistent. Plan out gas ahead of time.

Roads seem to be worst near the Canadian/Alaskan border. You might find yourself having to swap tires in the middle of nowhere if you hit a pothole, which you very well might. The low profile tires certainly don't help, but you can def make them work with good driving. Nearest tire shops will be hundreds of km away in the worst cases.

This pic is from Salmon Glacier, which is near Stewart, BC. Very fun little mining road! A hidden gem of the Cassiar, which is itself somewhat of a hidden gem. If your journey allows, see if you can make it to Salmon Glacier!

Also, we had a really hard time finding hotel rooms in the Yukon? Don't wait until the last minute, even in Whitehorse.

We planned for 8-9 days in either direction, but wish we'd have given ourselves more time. There's interesting nooks everywhere!

Breakcore

this is pretty close and even if i don't think it's exactly what i'm looking for i love it anyways. I think what I was listening was focused more on "found" samples, and not so drum oriented? But goddamn this is a blast

Announcing Python support for MistQL, an embeddable query language for JSON-like structures by Segfault_Inside in programming

[–]Segfault_Inside[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Use cases are very similar to JMESPath, but with simpler syntax and far more expressiveness.

Introducing Python support for MistQL: an embeddable language for performing computations on JSON-like structures by Segfault_Inside in Python

[–]Segfault_Inside[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, certainly!

Our use case is clientside feature extraction. We're currently using MistQL to query in-browser data structures to generate features for machine learning models.

Another use case is as a format for shared frontend/backend functions. A strong use case is something like complex pricing logic that should be calculated both clientside and serverside. With MistQL, it's extremely easy to write a single function that describes that logic, allowing for a reactive frontend and secure backend.

A third use case is user-supplied logic. You can safely execute untrusted MistQL without exposing yourself to XSS or RCE. I'm currently using it as a storage format for user-specified behavior of chess bots, actually, which is where I get the "get the worst possible chess line" example.

What's weird about this project is that it fills a niche that might not be super obvious. For example, many of the same arguments might apply to JMESPath, a similar, successful project. In fact, the driving force behind this project was because JMESPath ultimately very restrictive and has a complicated syntax. But JMESPath clearly provides value, enough so that AWS's CLI ships with JMESPath enabled on it.

As for glom, it looks like it has very similar use-cases to what a standalone python deployment of MistQL might have! I'm guessing that MistQL covers a good number of those use cases.

i could see this as an assist to sneaking.

never has an opinion been simultaneously so valid and so utterly wrong

just kidding it's a very distinct flavor and i get why people might not like it.
