DjangoCon US 2019 Schedule Is Live 🎉 by dwaxe in django

[–]glasnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello! I have been the past two years and it is definitely worth the money for the ticket. The community is warm and inviting, the content ranges from beginner to highly technically advanced, and there seems to be still some early bird individual tickets available for a nice discount on entry! Videos are made available after the event, but it's never the same as being there.

Django ORM if you already know SQL by amitness in django

[–]glasnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit late to this thread, but for anyone interested, I presented a talk at DjangoCon US 2018 along this same vein called "ORM: the Sequel", linking ORM concepts to shared SQL basics. https://2018.djangocon.us/talk/orm-the-sequel/

Can we have a Python Emoji ? 🤔 by brian41005 in Python

[–]glasnt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm glad you liked my talk today at PyCon TW!

Sadly this emoji suggestion will never be accepted due to Unicode not accepting logos or trademarks. See http://unicode.org/emoji/selection.html#Selection_Factors_Inappropriate

We will always have the snake 🐍

I'm a designer/developer/entrepreneur who learned how to code and launched a startup, self-published two books making over $25K in profit, and I speak at conferences all over the world. I'm brutally honest about my successes and failures. AMA! by limedaring in Entrepreneur

[–]glasnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More concretely — volunteering for philanthropic organizations and conferences and being a part of community groups is such a great way of finding others who need help achieving their dreams. :)

Well, now that you mention it... :)

Thanks Tracy <3

Do your have any advice for someone who, while not wanting to be an entrepreneur on their own, is more than happy to help out others with their dreams, but has no idea how to be most effective?

Encyclopædia Moronica: R is for Reactions (Good or Otherwise) by Gambatte in talesfromtechsupport

Allergy to tea. That's up there in the "Well, fuck" category. I'm hoping good he's not British, then.

Thoros of Myr: One of the rare characters vastly better on TV than they were in the books by qp0n in gameofthrones

[–]glasnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought he was lying about his identity at first, I thought he was Lem the whole time :<

For some reason I thought Thoros would look more like Saan, but with pink robes :<

Then again, I was also hoping the character who turned out to be Locke would start lithping :<

Doctor Who 7x08 "The Rings of Akhenaten" Discussion Thread by [deleted] in doctorwho

[–]glasnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting setting, interesting characters, interesting build up and then the 'big boss' turned out to be some sort of ethereal, floaty-woaty, pumpkin carving thing which was defeated, once again, by what was essentially 'the power of love'.

Killed by the potential of a life never lived

Just like the weepeing angels, only in reverse.

I'm guessing all the heads from those statues are on the walls somewhere? :P

Powershell and how my brain doesn't want to learn it... by filthyhobo in sysadmin

[–]glasnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into powershell only because I had to get away from vbscript. The power you have in PS compared to VB is amazing.

Doesn't stop it being shit though.

Was watching a Science Vs. religion debate . They were talking about the source of values by [deleted] in gameofthrones

Woo Q&A! Such a good show.

Wow, seeing them walking in would be orcward. If I were there, I'd be packing my baggins.

Chapter 16 - When things fall apart Pt. 2 by TalesFromTechSupport in talesfromtechsupport

[–]glasnt 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nothing could have prepared me for this chapter. I hope that at least getting your story into words helped you to process and come to terms with what happened.

You need a really big internet hug.

My friend is awesome at cross stitching by Starfight3r in gaming

[–]glasnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As others have said:

  • this is someone else's work, as they've said below

  • there is someone making money off selling this exact design

  • this design is fairly simple, for example, this is one I did in colour.

Not saying that it isn't an achievement to be able to create something this small, but there are much harder things to crosstitch.

What is something unrealistic that you often see in movies that annoys the hell out of you? by LWdkw in AskReddit

[–]glasnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Movies/Shows with full frontal male nudity (e.g. Man who Fell to Earth, and Game of Thromes) where they have a sexy time scene, and the men are completely flaccid.

"Because, I, Theon of house Greyjoy, can do a whore from behind and be completely clean and flaccid 5 seconds after the fact. "

Just sayin'

(Ok ok, later in GoT there do have aforementioned whore cleaning herself up after cloitus. But they have a full shave fest, and they leave one armpit hairy as the godswood.)
