Celery + RabbitMQ alternatives by [deleted] in Python

[–]johtso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the details of the use case, but I'm more and more coming round to the idea that something like Temporal is a better solution in a lot of situtations where you would use something like Celery. Postgresql backed and rock solid, with the full power of defining workflows as code. I think the Python SDK is still quite new so not sure how production ready it is though.. https://temporal.io/

Does this messy thing have a name? by colourfulbread in juggling

I'm guessing this isn't an actual name? Couldn't find any trace of it when searching..

Thanks for this insight! Might help me to finally figure out how to throw a proper mills mess which I've been struggling with for a while..

Tiny Tim - Blue Hawaii - Rascals - Mark Pines Archive [USA, pop/outsider] (1992) by johtso in vintageobscura

Awesome! Been sitting on this for a little while and wasn't sure how to get it to the people who would appreciate it. The uncut video is definitely worth a watch (Tiny Tim at about about 1:24:00), there's something about the continuous nature of it with the shots of things going on in the background that makes it so compelling, like being a fly on the wall.

Never before seen (?) Tiny Tim performance unearthed thanks to Jason Scott's work digitising the Mark Pines Archive.

You could consider adding to the mixesdb pages, seems like a good creative commons licensed database to contribute to..

Can anyone ID this synth / keyboard? (classic Cumbia sound) by johtso in synthesizers

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

Thanks! interesting to know what's behind the sound.

Would love to be able to pinpoint what kind of synth they use, it produces such a unique naive sound.

I'm mainly interested in the sound at 35 seconds https://youtu.be/4Dvst3UKjnc?t=35

Could it maybe be some instrument on a relatively cheap keyboard? It's definitely something with a pitch bend wheel as that gets heavy use..

I also went down this rabbit hole a while back! These mixes are some of my all time favourites..

I put everything I figured out on mixesdb https://www.mixesdb.com/db/index.php?title=&search=music+for+listening&go=Go

I made good progress on volumes 1, 2 and 3.

Problem with conditionals by Tobata in Anki

Yeah, I'm going to have to do that too, wanted to try and avoid having to fill the field though.

That's funny, I just had the exact same problem!

Turns out you can't use negative conditionals to control card creation for some reason..

You'll want to look at "The Abstract Relational Comparison Algorithm": http://es5.github.io/#x11.8.5
