@chrisod That normally means you volunteered at all, more candidates than openings was always rare in the HOAs I've been in.

@chrisod Okay, now I'm curious, is it still available?

2018 Cloud Custodian. So Open Source, So New Idea, Such wow! Part (1/2)
2020 AWS Config Rules. Thanks for the idea! We now have Cloud Custodian at home. The YAML is cloud formation, but otherwise, same feature-set. (2/2)

Ready to study for the SysOp exam? Watch this THREE DAY video. You weren't planning on doing anything else this weekend. And Monday.
At a miniconference. A table over is a random developer from Nebraska. I feel like I should thank him for the work he's done since 2003.
@krusynth He should have posted a question on Quora, too
You know how people like to write bash in yaml? Why not write python in yaml?
You get TWO kinds of significant white space. Double more good.

Last Friday my job offer letter came through, so the paychecks resume in a few weeks.
If the work matches the job req, I'll be supporting some python opensouce! I'll start bragging about it as soon as I'm allowed.
@lewiscowles1986@phpc.social Yes! The python core developers thought it would be a good prank on windows users to make non-windows venvs unnecessarily different from linux and mac ones. In the last week I've run into two makefiles that couldn't deal with the /Scripts/ folder and couldn't deal with a missing python3 alias. The `sh` library is another merry bunch of pranksters that want `import sh` to blow up on windows instead of quietly doing nothing like other linux-only libraries do.
When `python3` doesn't exist, are maintainers planning to send everyone a mac?
https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html#venv.EnvBuilder.setup_python
So to get a python3 alias on Windows without buying a mac, I wrote a library. I don't have a Mac handy, but this will *not* work on Unix, creating the cli command conflicts with the pre-existing python3 symlink.
Works on windows, in particular, works when running `shell python3 ...` inside of Makefile.
♡ 1 ↻ 1I couldn't figure out how to make an entrypoint conditional on the operating system or existence of python3 alias. As far as I can tell, it is now hard to package a setup.py so that setup.py custom code runs at install-time. (good for security!)
```toml
[tool.poetry.scripts]
python3 = 'python3.__main__:run'

I think 8 years ago, I would have said, how hard can it be, run your own EC2 instances and ECS clusters.
Today I think everyone should use something like
- AWS App Runner
- AWS Elastic Beanstalk
- AWS Lightsail
until you grow out of it. And you might never grow out of it.

Twice I've been in interview processes where an AWS Certification wasn't on the job req, but was asked interview questions that you could only be expected to know if you had been through the AWS Cert process (Knowing the pillars of the Well Architected Framework being the most egregious example).

IDEA: PEP 761: The fuck if I care clause
```
try:
print(1/0)
fuck it.

This would be syntactic sugar for `except: pass`

@AlSweigart I guess so, it could be a mask he's wearing. It is Halloween season.
You a senior developer or have senior developers work for you? This video is about the career path of senior developers (to technical lead, architect, staff engineer, principal, etc).
I think people get the wrong mental models of what a career path of a senior developer could be or what the roles are, especially as the team size and organization size grows beyond 1 supervisor-1 (junior) developer.

@AlSweigart Duckdb for same but when the data is huge.
@ebooksyearn Someone put fennel in Ohio's water? They've had water pollution problems since forever. This explains a lot.
Boeing paid $9 an hour to write 737 Max code. And they didn't even hire the senior developers in India, they hired freshers.
Anyhow, Boeing, give me a call, my 9 year old daughter is available to work for $5 an hour. No code will come from this exercise, but Boeing will be able to cut costs and my daughter will have some mall money. Win-win.
@falsevacuum@kitsunes.club Thread exited because you didn't await it and now you can't finish the meme.

Ars Technica is British for Butt Technica.
@jamiemccarthy Imho, the real news is that people have accidentally discovered that you can use cell phones to see aurora that otherwise would be invisible. This makes me think that aurora is cellphone-camera visible a lot of days of the year & we just noticed. Or people really are seeing bright aurora like they're in Alaska. People's tweets aren't always clear.
IDEA: Instead of writing one off python scripts we'll write declarative YAML DSL scripts. And when those get to big and tricky to read, we'll create one off python scripts to generate YAML DSL scripts.
So in DC, with our light pollution, the sky looks just barely red, like urban light pollution with 1% red instead of the usual grey.
On the phone's camera the sky looks like we're in Iceland or Alaska.
@calvinallen@hachyderm.io There are extension points to do so.

OLD NEWS, but man "steals" Federal Reserve Board source code (enterprise source code that is worth $0 for resale) and FBI charges him. He copied it to his personal machine. He barely escapes punitive jail time. OMG, wait until the FBI hear how source control works and what BYOE devices are.
No one mentioned other stolen secrets & the prosecutors said damages were less than $5k, a likely made up number.
Meanwhile, NASA, LoC is over here saying "PLEASE STEAL OUR SOURCE CODE. SUBMIT MERGE REQUESTS."

IDEA: Transfer the .io domain to the residents of the Jupiter moon, Io. Problem solved.
github.io will lose it's domain in less than 5 years, if I read the news right. I hope Github converts those sites over to a new domain.
I wonder if the LinkedIn job market is broken like the online dating market is. Imagine if the job openings is exactly == the job seekers, and you as a hiring manager got 1,000 applications. And every job got 1,000 applications. Each party assumes they're in a glut market and put all of their attention on the top 1%. Those candidates get flooded with offers and 99% of employer wonder why they can't hire anyone.
Candidates figure out what is going on and do the rational thing- send even more resumes including to job that aren't a good fit. Hiring managers respond rationally and get even more picky. So the whole thing spirals out of control until someone gets hired by accident.

Some Star Wars inspired syntax for #python

not:

@neurobashing In this job market one would want to go straight and also undo all the internet drama from the last decade.
