- Hard to argue this take, happy to see that its at the top. With it being such an old language its amazing that it still holds this position, and not surprising that it has warts, and thing that have turn users off from wanting anything to do with it. timestamped in the link

Command Line Interface Guidelines An open-source guide to help you write better command-line programs, taking traditional UNIX principles and updating them for the modern day. clig.dev [1] This is a pretty sick set of guidelines to help you write better cli programs, I’m definitely coming back to reading this one more in depth later.

FastHX - FastHX volfpeter.github.io [1] Very interesting approach to htmx [2] and fast api. It uses separate decorators for returning template partials and json that can be stacked to include both options on a single route. The templates are explicitly set in the decorator. Separate decorators are used for full page and partial pages. I don’t see an example of full and partial pages being combined. I think the demo app must be behaving in a spa like fashion where it does not get all of the data when it calls index and index will ask for user-list. Definitely going to keep my eye on this project and ponder on it. from fastapi import FastAPI from fastapi.templating import Jinja2Templates from fasthx import Jinja from pydantic import BaseModel # Pydantic model of the data the example API is using. class User(BaseModel): first_name: str last_name: str # Create the app. app = FastAPI() # Create a FastAPI Jinja2Templates instance and use it to create a # FastHX Jinja instance that will serve as your decorator. jinja = Jinja(Jinja2Templates("templates")) @app.get("/") @jinja.page("index.html") def index() -> None: ... @app.get("/user-list") @jinja.hx("user-list.html") async...

GitHub - svenstaro/miniserve: 🌟 For when you really just want to serve some files over HTTP right now! 🌟 For when you really just want to serve some files over HTTP right now! - svenstaro/miniserve GitHub · github.com [1] miniserve is a sweet http server, replacement for python -m http.server. It’s fast, runs off a small binary, but why would I want to use it over something that already exists on most machines, because it includes a bunch of features like qr codes, pretty themes, and uploads. I’ve used python -m http.server many times to transfer files from one machine to another in a pinch, like at a family members house. But what if they have an android, windows, or something not easy to get a python repl running on, you can run miniserve and upload from their device rather than hosting from their device.

Inside 22,734 Steam games About a year ago I blogged about games that use curl. In that post I listed a bunch of well-known titles I knew use curl and there was a list of 136 additional games giving credit to curl. Kind of ... daniel.haxx.se · daniel.haxx.se [1] Interesting to see that curl is used in so many places. I often think of things like games being so windows centric and curl being so linux centric I don’t even think of these things crossing paths as much as they do.

No offense to anyone working on wget, but generally I use it out of lazyness or something wierd is happening and I am looking for a second opinion. Cool to know that wcurl exists and will start shipping with curl. References: [1]: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2024/07/03/wcurl-is-here/
