Who could have guessed that running a package sending data over to a page with to render at runtime using two separate embedded Chrome processes could cause my flight simulator to have performance issues?

Well, once I became the person to guess that and I'm simply translating some textures with everything is butter smooth again.

      I think I made a really nice setup for marrying technical documentation with academic citations in . It was as simple as writing a little script using a citation library (PybTeX) and then incorporating it into the build process.

      See it working at https://marsh-sim.github.io/bibliography/

      Because everything is written in regular files, the editor can autocomplete citation keys without any special tooling - they are just sections in another file. This kind of interoperability is why simple tools like text files and are so great.

      I'm not a fan of hosting it on GitHub anymore, but there are already links in various places that I can't update, so this is the reasonable thing to do.

        It's been only four weeks and I really love using mise-en-place by @jdx@fosstodon.org So far I've used it for (chronologically):

        - switching between versions, I liked it more than the dedicated anyzig
        - venv activation – it's silly but feels so good, and collaborates with uv
        - ensuring I have the right language server and formatter for a project, be it , , and trying out various options for Python
        - setting LANG="C.UTF-8" only in the specific project folder because refused to work with Polish...

        The final boss was getting a really comfortable Tree-sitter setup: get the CLI, write grammar in , re-generate and run tests on source change as a mise Task. And then I only cloned the repo on another machine and was ready to go!

        This post was written as a more cultured outlet for my excitement instead of aggresively committing mise.toml into every repository I touch

            Recently tried https://astral.sh/uv tooling for , and I think I'm switching over for the foreseeable future.

            What made me finally try something else than raw pip and venv was easy installing of multiple Python versions. I was completing a PR to a library that (admirably) wants to support the old ones as well. Once I had the tool, I tried it for releasing a new version of my own PyPI package, and I wasn't ready for how fast and convenient it would be.

              Today's discovery: make history of Jupyter notebooks cleaner with this package:

              pipx install nb-clean
              nb-clean add-filter --remove-empty-cells --preserve-cell-outputs

                Today I threw together a small in to help with experimental characterisation of hardware for . It's simply generating a sinusoidal signal within configurable limits, but now it's definitely easier to understand than running scripts in terminal.

                I did enjoy the ease of setup of TkInter, and compatibility with Matplotlib, but I was missing the simplicity of immediate mode libraries. In trying to emulate these, now a few callbacks trigger "given this dataclass with state, the widgets should look like this".
                The micro-management gremlin is whining that it's repeating useless work, but more importantly the window is complete and I can go on with the experiment.
