I spent half an hour this afternoon wondering why the switch I'd just installed didn't work.
Turns out I'd wired it wrong on the first attempt, tripped the RCD, and I hadn't noticed everything downstairs was off when I checked different configurations.
That's enough DIY for me for today.
I ditched Gandi domains. More security, more features, and saving nearly £100/yr 🥳

It's been a long time since I've sat down to write, and stay in the flow.
2 hours and over 3000 words later, I feel more accomplished than I have in a while 🥳
It should probably have a review pass though. Coming soon!
It's hard to tell. It might just be for their hosted services, or the editor as a whole. It's a bit unclear right now
To use Zed you need to be 18+, force a binding arbitration and waive your right to class action lawsuits.
That's, a strange move.

Depending on your use case, that day is today* 🥳

Finally got around to pre-ordering a #Pebble Time 2.
I don't think I've been this excited for a new tech launch in a while! 🥰
Why does every project now need to be "for agents"?
Opening a port? Better make it for agents! github.com/vercel-labs/...
If your agent can use the tools you already have which are designed for good "human" UX, it's probably not an agent worth using.

My talk for @djangocon.eu was accepted 🥳 🥰
Time to start writing it...
If you use an LLM to generate your security report, but ignore the part where it says "triage this report according to your security process" and just post it as a public GitHub issue, you deserve bad things!
It was, and it'll return. I want to make sure the API is good before reopening the implementation. For now, you'll need a side channel for it.
As part of the recent django-tasks refactor, I had to extract some directories, with history, into their own repositories.
The process was quite interesting, and easier than I expected.

This is getting out of hand, now there are 3 of them!
With 0.12.0 of django-tasks, the DB and RQ backends are now in their own packages and repositories - making the separation between the interface and flagship backends clearer.

So, Heroku is basically dead now? Again...

It's that kind of Friday
I thought it was just me!
On Monday morning, we fixed a bug on a project by using an undocumented API. At ~10:45, I raised a ticket to get it documented.
By Tuesday afternoon, the docs were updated and deployed.
The power of open source! Who says @djangoproject.com moves slowly?

My ticket for Djangocon Europe
Ticket acquired for @djangocon.eu 🥳
The Windows 11 Installation screen
It's been that kind of day 😭
(I'm not moving to Windows, I just need a dev VM)
A submitted talk proposal for Djangocon europe 2026. The talk name is redacted.
Talk submitted for @djangocon.eu 🥳
And now we wait... 🤞
zram0: detected capacity change from 3752960 to 0
Sounds like one of my servers is pretty unhappy 😔
An email with the following wording: Django versions 6.0.2, 5.2.11, and 4.2.28 will be released on Tuesday, February 3 around 14:00 UTC. They will fix 6 security defects: one with severity low, two with severity moderate, and three with severity high.
Happy (next) Tuesday, from the @djangoproject.com Security Team 🥰

After the move (6 months ago...), I finally have my nice mic set up on my desk - On a much less unwieldy arm and with a pop filter. No more headset-quality audio in calls for me.
Ported some in-request HTML munging from beautifulsoup (+ lxml) to selectolax (lexbor), and saved over 150ms!
Maybe beautifulsoup has had its day... Even JustHTML was about on par with bs4 + lxml, and that's pure Python.

My partner has provionally allowed me to go to @djangocon.eu 🥳 Leaving her and the kiddo for almost a week 🥰 Now to come up with a talk idea... 🤔
Not quite decided yet, but I clearly need to get a move on. Stay tuned
Doh, Gandi renewed my domain earlier than I thought, so they charged me more than I would at another registrar. Better get this migration moving!
@mtth.org One missing feature down!
