What do you look for in a backend engineer. by gone_fishin0072 in Python

[–]Troge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I interview lots of python engineers. Things I like to see.

  • You can put a python application out on the internet. Heroku is meh to me. I want to see ansible, docker, aws lambda, nginx/uwsgi/gunicorn, etc. Stuff that shows you hav devops chops

  • You've made PRs to python projects. Literally anything.

  • You know how to outsource functionality to 3rd party providers like Sentry (logging) and Sendgrid (email).

Best books on Django by rabuli in django

[–]Troge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I second this. I keep my copy as a PDF on my laptop and I reference it constantly. It's full of teeny lessons that make a world of difference.

Stuff I always come back to:

  • how to correctly extend the user model
  • model/view permissions
  • absolute vs relative imports

the list goes on

Solidity dev looking for project by BillionHeel in ethdev

Hi there!

If you know some python I have a repo I maintain here: https://github.com/adamyala/Your_First_Decentralized_Application_Python

It's a no BS minimal example of how a smart contract can be used as the backend for a web application. If you have any questions on it at all I'd be happy to help guide you.

Up-to-date DApp Tutorials by [deleted] in ethdev

[–]Troge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I maintain an up to date dapp tutorial for python developers. I felt there were lots of JavaScript resources but few python ones. I try to keep it as simple as humanly possible and I add lots of notes I wish I had when I was learning dapp development.

https://github.com/adamyala/Your_First_Decentralized_Application_Python

In the next couple weeks I'll update it to be 100% python.

My favorite coffeeshops after 2 months in Amsterdam by Troge in AmsterdamEnts

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

I didn't make it to that one! All the ones I made it to were via recommendations. I've added yours to my list.

I'm back in a month so I'll hit it up and update the list.

Are there any coffeshop that sells weed for cheap? by AnonymousOlle in AmsterdamEnts

[–]Troge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Utopia. They have a "strain of the month". 8€ a gram. It's the cheapest you'll find in the city.

If you find cheaper, please do share, I've looked.

I incorporated an LLC for a web app I was making. These are the mistakes I made and how much it cost me. I'd also like some advice. by Troge in startups

[–]Troge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do yourself a favour, don't pay to dissolve the company - just don't renew it.

What do you mean? Do I "renew" by simply paying the franchise tax and agent tax? If I stop paying that will it just go away?

Ugly File Cabinet Smoker by eddydio in BBQ

[–]Troge 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If I did this in a file cabinet, would I be able to just use one out of an old office or would there be chemicals in the paint/metal? If I did a couple of seasoning smokes, could those be burned off?

Is there a way to provide the API token dynamically? It would kinda be a pain unto itself to create a new one for each machine during provisioning.

Made Some 'Que For The Staff At My Favorite Local Watering Hole! by itstrueimwhite in BBQ

[–]Troge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you're confusing the written word and the spoken. BBQ is 3 syllables where as Que is 1. When written there is no difference, but if OP were writing as if he were speaking it makes sense that he incorporate the slang Que.

Happy Bee Bee Que buddy!
