I’ve kinda fallen out of using direnv now that a lot of my projects use hatch, I generally just hatch shell into them. I just need to make sure I go through all of them and make my installer uv. Now I’ve been thinking about making uv my only needed dependency to run a python project and leaning more to something like uv run --with . uvicorn myapp --reload

I really like Trey’s steps to making an executable python script with uv

his old process seems to be the same with a new shebang

And here is the new format the the shebang followed by the metadata comment block defined in PEP 723.

I still cannot believe I thought I had such a unique idea with thoughts only to find out shortly thereafter that Simon beat me to the punch by about 20 years!

Simon put a lot of work into this [post](https://simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/22/link-blog/#thoughts.waylonwalker.com) please check it out. Its not only filled with tons of little nuggets about blogging, it has just a ton of links to other posts I’m itching to read now.

I really like this idea of keeping a set up contacts in a markdown repo, and being able to wikilink them to different tickets / meetings and what not. I’m imagining the graph you can build, it feels quite interesting. Even more relevant as we see things like teams rolling out retention limits to messages.

Here is Cassidy’s format, I like it but I’m probably not going to track the birthday of most people I work with, thats just not the relationship I tend to have with work friends. It might be a midwest or non tech thing, but I am not even aware if any of my co-workers have social media, and I assume that if they did it would not include anything work related but more football and other sports.

Dang context can really cause you to pull your hair out. Context seems so freaking convenient, but I’ve avoided it and just ssh in for these reasons. Maybe I’ll come around eventually but for now ssh is my friend.

I’m really excited about jnv, an amazing project by ynqa. It’s worth exploring!

Interactive JSON filter using jq

gh-skyline by github is a game-changer in its space. Excited to see how it evolves.

I’m really excited about studio, an amazing project by outerbase. It’s worth exploring!

Cassidy’s blog template built with Astro and TinaCMS!

Reminder to tune in later, can’t watch now, but saw a link on Dave’s blog.

Cheers to the Unique brains dave. I can say I am 100% with Dave on all of these, except the clean environment thing, lucky Dave. If I have enough room to see what I am doing and walk around a mess, I probably wont even notice it. I’m so hyper focused on what is right in front of me that mess could be a huge pile of cash and i’d never see it.

I love me some styled rss, it’s how the OG internet was made to be. You choose what you want to read and when. There is no middleman aggregator inflating the reach of things they want you to see or suffocating things against them. It’s just you and your internet friends.

Cassidy has a quite lovely and easy to read rss feed, with an open source style sheet, that is part of her open source blog template for astro blahg, love that name by the way!

I first learned of styled rss feeds from shoptalkshow.com, specifically from Dave Rupert.

Dave uses a pretty bog standard styled rss feed with December 18, 2024

Today i got hit by this accessibility issue on my site. Low contrast links are not distiniquishable. I had not seen this error title before it was new to me, maybe I have bad memory or maybe it’s new to me.

I ended up dropping the background color of the site down a notch as I didn’t really care for the semi-dark brown anyways. I’m liking the near black bg-zinc-950 much better now.

Now I got that 100 A11y score in lighthouse.

Dropper is a place for me to drop files for quick posts like this.
