Eine spontane #python lernübung gemacht.
Ergebnis ein interessantes Gefüllter Konturpiot. Das ich gerade auf dem Bildschirm vor mir sehe. Interessant das Ergebnis der Übung als Bild zu sehen.
Speicher mir die jeweiligen lerncodes auf meinem Schreibprogramm Open Office immer wieder ab.
Mittlerweile ist eine Sammlung von 43 gespeicherten Codes entstanden.
Da ich noch mehr geübt habe sind das nicht alle aber immerhin.
There is a silver lining to the whole #python #chardet debacle. If it is legal to throw a pile of code at an LLM, and tell it to write a new version of that code that is not a derivative then that gives us a lot of options too.
GPL compatible #ZFS? no problem! #ReactOS from the leaked NT/2k sources? No problem!
Maybe this is a golden age for the collapse of proprietary software after all. If they can do an end run around the #GPL we can do an end run around the #EULA.
So, I’ve been laid off and I’m currently searching for a new job.
I have been a professional software developer and architect for the past 30 years. My experience mostly lies in the JVM world, mostly #scala in the last decade, and #java before that . I love programming languages and I can also be efficient in #kotlin, #python, #javascript, #typeScript, #rust
Looking for a hybrid or remote position in Switzerland 🇨🇭 but will consider anything more or less in my time zone

I have a question about Python libraries and testing scope.
If I'm importing 'serial' in my library, and use it like the following to create a connection to a sensor:
--- start code ---
import serial
class Sensor:
def __init__(self, serial_device):
self.__serial_device = serial_device
try:
self.__connection = serial.Serial(
port=serial_device,
baudrate=9600,
bytesize=serial.EIGHTBITS,
parity=serial.PARITY_NONE,
stopbits=serial.STOPBITS_ONE,
)
except serial.SerialException:
print("Could not establish serial connection to sensor")
--- end code ---
how much testing should I do around the serial connection? Just mock up a few buffers (byte streams), and see how my class handles unexpected input?
One the one hand, I want to make the library as solid as possible. On the other hand, I don't want to run tests on code I don't control (the library module). I know of the 'mock-serial' utility, but haven't used it.
The aim is to make a Python version of my Arduino library for the CozIR Ambient CO2 sensor:
My partner is looking for work. I'd appreciate boosts.
He's looking to move into #appsec, but will accept short #webdev or #devops contracts (<12 months). Location: Melbourne Australia, or remote. For a short enough contract he'd go anywhere though.
He's a senior full stack web dev (Linux/python/django/js/elm, ~12 years).
Experienced in dev ops, dev sec ops and automation (ansible, selenium, etc etc).
He has experience with OWASP ZAP, bandit and Snyk, and is part way through the PortSwigger academy.
FOSS contributions include writing a django authentication function for OWASP ZAP, making a wrapper to improve accessibility and usability for selenium (Elemental), and other bits and bobs.
He isn't on any socials, but if you want to get in touch I can share his email or signal ID (or give him yours).
He and I have been the security people for little apps without any dedicated security team, for the last decade or so. If you're in security you might have met him (or me) at conferences (Disobey, BSides, CCC, Defcon and Ruxmon), because we've been attending since we launched our own app in 2014, picking up everything we can to protect our users.
(Yep, he is aware a move to security from senior dev roles will be a step down in seniority and $. He just really likes security.)
Amigos, me ajudem por gentileza a divulgar meu curso online promovido pelo Museu de Arte Moderna de São Paulo (MAM-SP) que começa agora em março e estão prestes a se encerrar as inscrições:
https://mam.org.br/curso/desenhando-com-codigo-programacao-criativa-2/
É um curso introdutório, sem pré-requisitos, de #ProgramaçãoCriativa usando #Python com #py5, minhas ferramentas prediletas.
