#artificialintelligence #hiring | Gary Vaynerchuk | 120 comments I care about humanity first, THEN skills .. and in this AI-scaled world, human sh*t will win 🔑 #artificialintelligence #hiring | 120 comments on LinkedIn LinkedIn · linkedin.com [1] More Human stuff that’s what we will be doing. Less looking at docs, more architecting (which suspiciously looks like writing docs), more decision making, more explaining. This is a good positive take on AI right now.

fastapi

FastAPI is a modern and efficient web framework for Python, built on top of the Starlette web framework, and pydantic for data validation and serialization. From the FastAPI documentation [1] # [2] FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs with Python based on standard Python type hints. The key features are: - Fast: Very high performance, on par with NodeJS and Go (thanks to Starlette and Pydantic). One of the fastest Python frameworks available. - Fast to code: Increase the speed to develop features by about 200% to 300%. * - Fewer bugs: Reduce about 40% of human (developer) induced errors. * - Intuitive: Great editor support. Completion everywhere. Less time debugging. - Easy: Designed to be easy to use and learn. Less time reading docs. - Short: Minimize code duplication. Multiple features from each parameter declaration. Fewer bugs. - Robust: Get production-ready code. With automatic interactive documentation. - Standards-based: Based on (and fully compatible with) the open standards for APIs: OpenAPI (previously known as Swagger) and JSON Schema. Mentioned in 2025 Stack Overflow Survey [3] # [4] The +5 point increase for Fas...

starlette head request

FastAPI [1].">Starlette has a head request that works right along side your get requests. This morning I fiddled around with custom routes for GET and HEAD, but had to manually set some things about the file, and was still missing e-tag in the end. Turns out as a developer you can just [2] add a head route to your get routes and starlette will strip the content for you, while preserving all of those good headers that fastapi FileResponse created automatically for you. from fastapi import APIRouter from fastapi.response import FileResponse from fastapi import Request from pathlib import Path router = APIRouter() @router.get("/file/{filename}") @router.head("/file/{filename}") async def get_file(filename: str, request: Request,): headers = { "Cache-Control": "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate", } from pathlib import Path filename = Path(f"data/{filename}") if not filename.exists(): raise HTTPException(status_code=404, detail="File not found") return FileResponse(filename, headers=headers) Here is an example of the response with curl. ❯ curl -I -L "http://localhost:8100/api/file/e5523925-1565-454c-bab3-c70c4deabc83.webp?width=250" HTTP/1.1 200 OK date: Wed, 22 Oct 202...

Don't copy your gitignore to stignore

Today I learned that while .stignore and .gitignore look very similar they are not. My obsidian directory had been locked up for a few weeks and I had no idea why until I logged into the web ui and saw errors. The errors were some confusing regex validator not matching. I don’t know what the exact error was, but I went in and only ignored the files I cared about instead of the entire gitignore. Primarily I was getting conflicts in my .git directory.

3d Printing Dovetails Experiment

I hit an issue with 3d printing oversized parts that I have not hit before. I’m working on some jigs for an upcoming woodworking project that will involve a lot of repetition. We want to utilize some dowel joinery and jigs for consistency. These parts will be up to 20in in length this is much larger than my print bed. I’ve fit things together before # [1] Here’s where I went wrong, I wasn’t really thinking through my previous applications. They’ve all been slip fit, primarily print in place joints that need to move.

💭 This Web Server Is 100% Solar Powered - YouTube www.youtube.com

- This is super cool, thanks to Brodie for reading me this content as I do household chores. lowtech magazine [1] is a website ran completely on solar power with only enough battery backup to cover most days. Adding enough to cover all days would increase its carbon footprint and negate the carbon offset of the solar panels it runs on. It’s fascinating to see a web server running completely off grid in a close power system. These interesting websites are fascinating keep em coming Brodie. Note This post is a thought [2].

💭 2025 The Year Of The Linux Desktop - YouTube www.youtube.com

- The Year of the Linux Desktop is a meme, every year is the year of the Linux desktop as it gains rounding errors of market share. Outside of Linux nerds, developers that use servers on the regular, cheap asses reviving old hardware that is dead in the eyes of other OS’s, the average user wont even notice a difference with the right distro. I ran bazzite with plasma for over a year, It would be super beginner friendly while allowing users customization on levels never seen on non-Linux machines. Other than adobe, roblox, and EA games with easy anti-cheat most users probably aren’t going to run in to any issues. They probably wont even notice at this point, which is where the meme comes in. Why would anyone switch if its not noticeably different for the average user, they wont, until what is working for them stops working for them. Note This post is a thought [1].

Litewind Litewind is Tailwind without the build step litewindcss.com [1] This is a sick no-build version of tailwind.

This is a perfect no-build tailwind alternative. Note This post is a thought [2].

python extras are for shipping

Python has two ways of adding optional dependencies to your projects pyproject.toml file dependency-groups and optional-dependencies. dependency-groups # [1] for development Dependency grooups are used when working on the project, they do not ship with the project, users cannot select to install them with the project. These are for things like running tests, linting, or docs. You might want to run these in ci, or keep your dev machines tight. For the most part you can probably keep these in dev. Depending on your team, fluency, and tolerance for slower installs extra packages. Adding too many tight groups might make it hard for the team to remember all the groups and which one to use and end up with them using --all-groups anyways. optional-dependencies # [2] for users Optional dependencies are for shipping. These are for your users, not your development team. This is used for dependencies that are clearly not needed for all or main use cases. It is annoying to use projects th...

💭 python 3.14 highlights! - YouTube www.youtube.com

- anthony has some of the best python highlight videos each year. This might be a good sign, but each year there seems to be less and less that I am chomping at the bit to get to. I thought the remote debugger looked every interesting, his use case for babi seemed very interesting. I wonder what textual would look like built in a 3.14 world, would it still have built its own debugger/console? uv tool run --python=3.14 babi Without a process flag you need sudo permissions to attach a pdb debugger similar to gdb. ps -ef | grep babi uv tool run --python=3.14 python -m pdb -p8605 [1] Note This post is a thought [2].

💭 PEP 735 – Dependency Groups in pyproject.toml | peps.python.org peps.python.org

PEP 735 – Dependency Groups in pyproject.toml | peps.python.org This PEP specifies a mechanism for storing package requirements in pyproject.toml files such that they are not included in any built distribution of the project. Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs) · peps.python.org [1] PEP 735 describes dependency groups as sets of optional dependencies that are not shipped with the package but intended for development purposes. The PEP includes an example for groups that include test, docs, typing, and a combo typing-test. [dependency-groups] test = ["pytest", "coverage"] docs = ["sphinx", "sphinx-rtd-theme"] typing = ["mypy", "types-requests"] typing-test = [{include-group = "typing"}, {include-group = "test"}, "useful-types"] This is implemented in uv and can be used by several of their commands. uv sync --group test uv run --group test uv add --group test pytest uv remove --group test pytest uv export --group test uv tree --group test Dependency Groups are not Extras # [2] The docs describe extras as being intended to ship with the application and dependency groups intended for development.

💭 Using Litestream to Restore My Database for Easy Development pype.dev

Using Litestream to Restore My Database for Easy Development | Nic Payne Litestream see [[using-litestream-to-backup-quadtasks-sqlite-db]] for how I setup litestream replication for [[quadtask]] I have the entrypoint to my app contai pype.dev [1] I really like how well the local dev is setup to run off of production data here. I’ll use this as a reminder that I need to set up lite stream on a few of my projects that it’s missing from and include a nice sync prod data Posts tagged: justfile [2] recipe. Litestreams interface always throws me for a loop. It works fantastic, but the global config stored in /etc and some of the commands break my brain. It’s not you it’s me. Using real data when you can is goated. Fake data is so often a perfect example of what someone thinks the backend should look like and does not include things that users actually do, running pipelines for days, or setting titles to paragraphs worth of text. Obviously this is not possible everywhere and the more sensitive your data the harder that process becomes. Note This post is a thought [3].

💭 A quote from Dan Abramov simonwillison.net

A quote from Dan Abramov Conceptually, Mastodon is a bunch of copies of the same webapp emailing each other. There is no realtime global aggregation across the network so it can only offer a fragmented … Simon Willison’s Weblog · simonwillison.net [1] Interesting catch from the HN discussion over his article [2] that came out yestereday. I scanned it yesterday and it has some really fascinating diagrams showing different phases of the web being open, to being siloed, to somewhere that we are trying to make it easy to publish, and retain ownership. I don’t know enough about bluesky, but the core is build on the AT protocol, you can self host [3] your own instance, you can build different front ends for it. So rather than having siloed instagram, FB, twitter, there are clones of those platforms that read the same data from everyones data, that they have the option of self hosting. I like this distinction between Mastadon here. Mastadon can also be self host, but its data aggregation is decentralized, so each instance is fragmented and cannot have a complete view of the data. The way that the ATproto does its aggregation is quite fascinating and feels right for an open social p...

💭 This printed design holds a steel tube where the tube goes. #o... www.youtube.com

- This is a super cool movement, I like the idea of giving access to composable components like we have in open source. You want to build a website you have a bunch of options from raw dogging assembly all the way up to predefined templates that just need your content. Idk if the analogy is perfect but there are aspects of it that work. I see where right now we are somewhere in raw dogging c or python. We have cheap nuts and bolts and some low level things, but once someone needs some coupler like this it’s dropping down to drawing it by hand. Note This post is a thought [1].

- I can’t believe this thing is so devicive. I kinda can’t belive that I sit on the same side as Mathes and his always against the grain, non corporate influenced response. So many others have praised Haiden for bringing back the real gladiator bloodsport that SX is, is it that though?? It’s a race to the finish. different than a lot of other racing its very unpredictable takeout moves happen, occasionally as an accident, often taking both riders down at the same time. Also different than MANY sports we have a huge industry of weekend warriors, Some of which make it into the night show of the biggest race on TV. You see we only bring 20 riders from each class, the top half to top quarter are “Factory” riders, the rest are privateers, sometimes these privateers are completely their on their own. There is also something called a last chance qualifier. This is your last chance to get into the night show, often fought by these privateers out of box vans with their brother as a mechanic. Often that last spot is filled by sketchy on edge riding and takeout moves from a rider that looks like he is barely making it, but would run circles around anyone at your local race. We celebrat...
