Resolver Hacks

Resolver Hacks: "Welcome to Resolver Hacks, a site which explores various ways to get the best out of Resolver. Resolver is the creation of Resolver Systems. It is a Rapid Application Development tool, for analysing and presenting business data using a familiar 'spreadsheet interface'. The power and flexibility of Resolver comes from the fact that it is fully programmable with Python code."

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."

Laptop With a Mission Widens Its Audience - New York Times

Laptop With a Mission Widens Its Audience - New York Times: "In November, you’ll be able to buy a new laptop that’s spillproof, rainproof, dustproof and drop-proof. It’s fanless, it’s silent and it weighs 3.2 pounds. One battery charge will power six hours of heavy activity, or 24 hours of reading. The laptop has a built-in video camera, microphone, memory-card slot, graphics tablet, game-pad controllers and a screen that rotates into a tablet configuration."

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."

Pandoc (aus Docutils-users Digest, Vol 17, Issue 1 Reader (138) )

1."html2x can convert most web pages to markdown, reST, DocBook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, RTF, or groff man. Bookmarklets are provided.

2. Try Pandoc! (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/try) allows you to experiment with pandoc without going to the trouble of installing it on your system. Using pandoc, you can convert reST documents to markdown, DocBook, LaTeX, ConTeXt, RTF, HTML, S5, and groff man. You can also convert markdown, LaTeX, and HTML to reST, and you can prettyprint reST by converting reST to reST. Note that only a subset of reST syntax is currently supported:"

Memory Dump » Blog Archive » Zope3 for Djangoers. Part 1: Installation

Memory Dump » Blog Archive » Zope3 for Djangoers. Part 1: Installation: "I’ll try to write a series of posts to give the Zope3 newbie a little bit of knowledge so he/she doesn’t get lost in the Zope3 forrest. And more important, I’ll write them from a Djangoer perspective so you can always compare both frameworks."

PyWeek - Python Game Programming Challenge

PyWeek - Python Game Programming Challenge: "The PyWeek challenge: 1. Invites entrants to write a game in one week from scratch either as an individual or in a team, 2. Is intended to be challenging and fun, 3. Will hopefully increase the public body of game tools, code and expertise, 4. Will let a lot of people actually finish a game, and 5. May inspire new projects (with ready made teams!)"

Furius Blog

Furius Blog: "I became obsessed with text files, because text files are forever. The ASCII, Latin-1 or UTF-8 encodings will never go out of style, because they are not formats, they are simple encodings, and the information stored in these text files will be usable and parseable by computers practically forever. Moreover, the software that can read and convert the very few formatting that is used in the input files is in the open source domain, and has few dependencies, and therefore will work as long as the language it is written in (Python) will be alive. I see tremendous value in this. Access to the information I produce is not ephemeral anymore."

Digital Web Magazine - RDF For The Rest Of Us

Digital Web Magazine - RDF For The Rest Of Us: "You have a website full of information, and you want to make it easier for people to reuse it—but what format should you publish it in? You’ve looked at various XML schemas and microformats, but none of them really describes all the information that you want to publish. Should you invent a new format? It’s tempting, but if you could use an existing standard, your data would be immediately interoperable with other data published in the same way; people could reuse the tools, parsers and stylesheets built around that standard. But unfortunately, nothing seems to really fit your needs. This is where RDF comes in."

Barrapunto | Gestión de proyectos de software con Trac y DrProject

Barrapunto | Gestión de proyectos de software con Trac y DrProject: "Hasta la aparición de Django, Python y el web no eran entornos muy populares de desarrollo. Uno de los programas que, aún así, han tenido un gran éxito es Trac. Esta herramienta permite gestionar proyectos de software, mediante wikis, tareas, informes de fallos e integrando subversion. En PC-CITO hay un tutorial de instalación de Trac. Además, a través de Linux.com descubro DrProject, una modificación de Trac para gestionar múltiples proyectos en una sola instalación. ¿Y tú, qué software recomiendas para gestionar proyectos?"

Dougma (dŭg·mə) n. - the truth according to Doug » HELP!

Dougma (dŭg·mə) n. - the truth according to Doug » HELP!: "We are hoping to start accepting proposals for PyCon 2008 on October 1st. The problem is, the software is not ready. A delay in accepting proposals will cause a chain reaction in the schedule we cannot afford. So here I am pleading for help. It could be something as simple as adding pygments integration to ReStructuredText, or just chatting with me about possible schema changes to support tutorials, panels and maybe even Pier-Review (for EuroPython). Not everything will get done (which is expected), but the core requirements are… well, requirements after all."
