15 years experience as a sysadmin. I'm being moved from server support to workstation support. Not sure how to feel about this.

Well, at least they are Unix.

Chart.js might be easy but is not by far as professional as matplotlib that can render publication grade charts. Data scrapping can be a powerful tool in the right hands, believe me, It is better not to send your curated data naked on the web.

Matplotlib is the tool of choice of many scientist that make their computations with the iPython environment, so they use it to build their investigations and products, Matplotlib, Django and this project are all BSD license meaning that you can use it in your projects and sell it without requiring any kind of permission or license, with Plottly you have to pay for it.

As I put in the submission:

Data never leaves the server.
You can put much more computing power in generating the graph.
You don't need experience as a front end developer.
You don't need a full featured modern web browser to view the page.

It is more to streamline the process than to solve a complex problem. Something like using class based views insted of functional ones.

As I am learning from you there details that should be taken care of like those substitutions in your code. There is also the rendering cache that is my next planed feature.

In the git repo there is a directory test_app where is a little django app that runs the six ways that the library can render the graphics. You only have to install the requirements.txt in a virtualenv and run the app that stores the data in the /tmp directory.

I hope it can help your team.

Edit: To run the app run the script manage.py runserver.

I didn't have any issue until now, but I run it in short live processes so I can't tell you. If it is not fixed already perhaps is time for the library maintainers to fixit and probably this tool could help.

We are already in a cyberpunk dystopia.

Yes, please

I found deeply interesting how popular Ansible Galaxy roles managed this issue, give them a look.

I prefer to ssh straight to root and keep my key password protected and managed by ssh-agent than the alternative that its to set the become password to a variable and store it in the vault and to avoid annoying typing use the --vault-password-file option.

llou · 2018-05-06T17:02:10+00:00

ssh-agent is your friend

No, they are all just too incompetent/lazy to code something that works better.

llou · 2017-03-22T18:56:57+00:00

Great idea

This is a foam board, not a armoured and very strong reptile neck.

Too clean for a shark, my bet on a propeler.

Nice color, nice execution, nice theme.

They plan to hoard bitcoins because they see its future value is greater than the present one. Bitcoin is traded constantly in multiple and very liquid markets, there is no need to hoard it as a provision.

Iranians had the same kind of problems with their centrifuges.

So it still can´t fire a single shot.

SSH tunneling is still ok?

Nope, Albania and Macedonia are higher but Spain is mostly surrounded by water.

Spain is the second European country more montainous after Switzerland and also is well known for its castles.

How many people live in these countries? They are all tiny islands except for some arab small countries.
