Shoebot | Main / HomePage browse: "Shoebot is a pure Python graphics robot: It takes a Python script as input, which describes a drawing process, and outputs a graphic in a common open standard format (SVG, PDF, PostScript, or PNG). It has a simple text editor GUI, and scripts can describe their own GUIs for controlling variables interactively. Being pure Python, it can also be used as a Python module, a plugin for Python-scriptable tools such as Inkscape, and run from the command line. It was directly inspired by DrawBot and Shoes. Thus, 'Shoebot.'"

Werkzeug is unicode aware and doesn't enforce a specific template engine, database adapter or anything else. It doesn't even enforce a specific way of handling requests and leaves all that up to the developer.

Werkzeug is most useful for end user applications which should work on as many server environments as possible (such as blogs, wikis, bulletin boards, etc.).

Having coded applications in Aquarium, Django, Pylons, Ruby on Rails, Zope, Plone, etc., I've been fascinated by the idea of an anti-framework. A framework establishes the flow of the application and calls your code at certain points. That's the opposite of a library. A library lets you call its code whenever and however you want. Werkzeug is a collection of libraries."

Mike Coyle’s Weblog » Blog Archive » My PM Network Interview, or Tales from the Cutting Room Floor: "8) What ways can small teams work most effectively to accomplish big tasks?

There are four aspects that drive small-team effectiveness: Planning, Process, Automation, and Asset Management.

* Planning: Small teams need to focus their efforts on understanding how the key moving parts of their project fit together so that they can proactively categorize and manage delivery risk. This is far more important than trying to optimize the workload balancing in your project plan, since you’re not trying to distribute lots of work among interchangeable resources on a large team.
* Process: Small teams should maintain strict adherence to a lightweight process. Individual heroics are not scalable nor predictable over time. Even small teams need to play by the book, but they need to make sure that it’s the right book for them.
* Automation: Small teams need to maximize the amount of work that they don’t do, and focus their efforts on the important stuff. If work cannot be avoided, it should be automated. Computers are really good at doing predictable stuff really fast.
* Asset Management: Small teams should manage their important data using some sort of version control mechanism. A good version control syste"

March 14-16, 2008

http://us.pycon.org

PyCon 2008, the sixth annual community conference for the Python programming language, comes to Chicago this year. The conference takes place March 14-16 at the Crowne Plaza Chicago O'Hare Hotel.

A rich schedule is being planned, including presentations, keynotes, Lightning Talks, an exhibition hall, and the hands-on Python Lab. Plentiful Open Space has been set aside for Birds-of-a-Feather sessions and other unscheduled 'unconference'-style activity. Several tutorials and talks are designed for new Python users and new programmers specifically.

The conference will be preceded by a day of intensive tutorials (March 13). Afterward, four days of development sprints (March 17-20) will bring participants together for face-to-face cooperation to advance several Python open-source projects.

PyCon attendance grew 44% from 2006 to 2007. PyCon 2008 has already set records for number of talks, tutorials, and sprints scheduled.

Registration is open now. Early-bird registration rates ($400 corporate, $220 hobbyist, $125 student) are available through February 20.

About Python:

Python is a dynamic, open-source programming language suited to many kinds of software development. TIOBE named Python the fastest-growing programming language of 2007. Python is particularly recognized as a valuable language for education. Its ease of use allows quick start-up and progress, yet it also encourages good long-term programming habits and style. Its clear, readable syntax makes cooperation between students and instructors easy. Thanks to its broad capabilities, rich libraries, and vigorous community, Python can continue to be a student's language of choice long after moving from beginner to expert. Python code can run on Java and .NET platforms through the Jython and IronPython implementations.

Reinteract - Better interactive Python « fishsoup: "Recently, I’ve been doing quite a bit of reading about computer analysis of musical sound and some experimentation. But there wasn’t really anything I knew of that fit my desires for an experimental platform. Python + numpy provided a good combination of a pleasant language and signal processing ability. But beyond that I wanted an interactive environment that created a persistent record of what I was doing. And that means the ability to edit: to go back and fix up mistakes and add comments. Because a literal transcript of a shell session is worthless… it’s full of typos and dead ends. Also, I wanted inline plots and images. In essence, I wanted something like the Mathematica notebook user interface, but for Python."

iX - IBM kauft Cognos

iX - IBM kauft Cognos: "Business Intelligence (BI) und Performance Management (PM) sind in – Anwendungen zur Analyse und Optimierung von Geschäftsprozessen sind ein lukratives Geschäft, auch deshalb, da sich viele Unternehmen – und das mittlerweile auch bei kleineren und mittelständischen Firmen – von Business-Intelligence-Lösungen direkte positive Auswirkungen auf ihre Bilanzen erhoffen."

--> Das ist doch ein Anwendungsfeld für Python (?). Wenn ich mir überlege, wie viel Potential auch schon in der Unterstützung von einfachsten Datenanalysen im Unternehmen liegt... Es ist erstaunlich, wie viel Zeit dafür verbraucht wird um am Ende dann wieder - wenn die aktualisierte Excel-basierten-Datensammlung rauskommt - nichts davon gebrauchen zu können!

Tim Golden's Python Stuff: Watch a Directory for Changes

Tim Golden's Python Stuff: Watch a Directory for Changes: "The requirement: to know when files have been added, removed or updated within a directory. There are several approaches you can take to monitoring a directory under Win32. I'm going to compare three: the first, to poll the directory every few seconds using os.listdir; the second, to use the FindFirstChangeNotification API; the third, to use the ReadDirectoryChanges API. Each is presented with its pros & cons. There are more sophisticated alternatives involving audit logging and volume change management, but I know next-to-nothing about them, and I suspect they're OTT for most people."

ITworld.com - The web and the word processor

ITworld.com - The web and the word processor: "In one form or another, I do words for a living. I spend part of my time writing words (as I am doing right now). I also spend part of my time writing complex sets of words (known as 'computer programs') to manage other complex sets of words (known as 'enterprise content'). On an almost daily basis I must address the question of how best to organize content so that it can be managed effectively. On an almost daily basis I find myself oscillating between two distinct-yet-closely related worlds..."

heise online - Ein Laptop für nahezu jedes Kind in Uruguay: "In Uruguay laufen die Vorbereitungen für die Auslieferung des OLPC-Laptops auf vollen Touren. Nach einem Bericht der uruguayischen Tageszeitung El Pais soll der Laptop-Fertiger Quanta am 12. November mit der Serienproduktion der Geräte beginnen. Die erste Tranche von 5.000 Laptops erwartet das für die Auslieferung und Installation zuständige LATU (Laboratorio Tecnológico del Uruguay) noch im Dezember, obwohl die Verträge noch nicht unterzeichnet sind. Insgesamt kauft Uruguay 100.000 OX-Laptops zum Preis von 199 US-Dollar mit der Option auf Tranchen von jeweils 50.000 weiteren Maschinen."

I blog therefore I am (by Carlos de la Guardia) | Plone is a popular CMS choice for US universities

I blog therefore I am (by Carlos de la Guardia) | Plone is a popular CMS choice for US universities: "I recently wrote about Leicester University selecting Plone as their CMS over Sharepoint. It turns out that Plone is also popular in universities on this side of the ocean. CMSWire has a summary of the results of a survey made by UC Davis, in California, about CMS use at 129 american universities. Plone is the top choice, with 13 implementations. Drupal is close as always, with 10, and Joomla has 8. There are also 8 implementations that use Zope, so we could say that there are 21 Zope based solutions in all. Not too shabby!"

iX - Noch dünner als Thin: Zero Client

iX - Noch dünner als Thin: Zero Client: "Während typische Thin Clients noch ein eigenes, kompaktes Minimalbetriebssystem typischerweise aus einem Flash-Speicher laden, um mit ihrem Terminal-Server kommunizieren zu können, sollen Zero Clients praktisch nur noch wie ein Keyboard-/Video-/Mouse-(KVM-)Adapter am Netzwerk arbeiten. Deshalb sollen Leistungsaufnahme, Ausfallswahrscheinlichkeit und Administrationsaufwand von Zero Clients nochmals niedriger liegen als bei 'klassischen' Thin Clients, gleichzeitig können sie aber mit mehr Betriebssystemen kooperieren, sofern auf dem zugehörigen Server die passende (Virtualisierungs-)Software läuft."

The Tao of Mac - The Python Grimoire

The Tao of Mac - The Python Grimoire: "The core of the Grimoire was originally developed and released by Andrew M. Kuchling in May, 1999. However, it never reached a stage where Andrew felt that it was ready for publication, and eventually he withdrew it. Steve Ferg, however, had found the Grimoire very helpful as he was learning Python, and he persuaded Andrew to allow him to take over maintenance of the document in August, 2002."
