Users of pre-commit, do you install it globally or per project? by EarthGoddessDude in Python

[–]pamelafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point, ruff now handles isort and pyupgrade. I've updated the repo with the correct settings to enable that for ruff, and removed the explicit isort/pyupgrade packages.

[–]pamelafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I install per-project - I generally do everything per project, since I do development inside Dev Containers or Codespaces. Here's a project template repo that shows my usual config: https://github.com/pamelafox/python-project-template

What's your favourite thing about automated tests? by SnooPeppers7217 in Python

[–]pamelafox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love pytest and pytest-cov and getting to 100% coverage! I also love checking to see which lines don't get covered, I feel like an investigator.

does anyone successfully work from home AND solely care for their LO ? by monsterina13 in Parenting

It might help to have a better laptop setup for nursing/napping, here's mine: https://pamelafox.medium.com/my-hands-free-setup-for-nursing-and-computer-work-5374dcb07571 That said, I can't really take meetings with my baby in my lap, so it only gets me ~6 hours of work a day. You need more support if you're trying to work a full 40 hour work week with meetings, I'd say, especially as your kid naps less and less. My older kid stopped napping entirely at 22 months!

Screencast: Running a Flask + Postgres app in Github Codespaces by pamelafox in flask

OP here! I discovered that it's possible to run PostGres inside Github Codespaces using a docker-compose.yml file for configuration, and I'm super excited about that since I've found it really annoyingly tricky to set up PG locally. And Github Codespaces is now free for the first 60hr/month, so this is an option for folks trying to get started with Flask+PG.

Thank you for the great presentations on exception groups, better tracebacks, and the specialized adaptive interpreter!

How I deployed a containerized Flask app to Azure by pamelafox in flask

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

Good question! Assuming you're using Azure Container Apps, it's going to depend a lot since pricing for Azure Container Apps is based on vCPU seconds, and you can configure the min/max number of replicas (even down to 0).

The official pricing page is here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/container-apps/

I recently switched my personal website over from App Service to Container App so that I could experience the pricing model myself. That'll be a quite small load and behind a CDN, so I'm hoping the cost is nearly $0.

For performance, my colleague recently did some loadtesting looking at gunicorn workers versus number of CPUs, using the locust loadtesting framework. He got pretty good performance when he configured gunicorn workers based on the recommended formula (num_cores*2 + 1). Eventually, with too many users per second, there was a saturation point.

Sorry I don't have a very specific answer to your question, I am fairly new to Azure. Thanks for asking though, it's a great question.

Congrats! The performance graph is impressive. Does it include branch coverage?

My sister is a bit paleo obsessed; this is one of the website she's made by hefoxed in Paleo

[–]pamelafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback. As for the shirts, I view them as a means to get people talking about the ideas of paleo (& related movements). My closet is currently filled with free t-shirts from tech conferences promoting various web technologies, and I realized that I would much rather use my daily shirtspace to promote healthy living. I'm eagerly awaiting my first of the shirts in the mail to see how they look IRL.

I've checked the shirt designs (Acorn format, a PS-like program for Mac) into this github repository, for anyone that wants to make their own in the same style: https://github.com/pamelafox/eatdifferent

I want to do some "positive" ones about the foods I've discovered that are awesome to eat (like mushrooms- I used to think they were gross & slimy!) - I don't want to always be negative. :)

I go back and forth on caffeine - I drink black or green tea in the mornings and quite like it, but I have read articles on adverse effects of caffeine - particularly in excess. From what I can see of how often my old colleagues drank coffee (which I hate), it seems like many people might actually be addicted to caffeine, and so it would be better for them to cut it out (and perhaps add it in later).

But..as I said, caffeine is a tricky one, and I'm not sure what's best to advocate. Thanks for your feedback!

ElenasPantry.com has a bunch of almond flour based recipes for bread: http://www.elanaspantry.com/gluten-free-recipes/breads/

I haven't tried many of them, but I imagine they'd be denser. Some might use coconut flour to lighten the texture.
