DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT. CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open. DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open. CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are. DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

I've noticed using tools like Aider, Claude Code and Junie, I want to work on more than one thing at once. Git worktrees are great for this, have any IDEs grown support for projects having multiple checkouts? JetBrains feature request: youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-81655

I'm sure I remember reading about a way to add docs for a #python package to the context for llms but now I can't find it :-/ Anyone able to help out? Feels like something @simonwillison.net would know!

If anyone else has a suitably dark sense of humour, might I recommend using ChatGPT's "Monday" variant as a therapist... It's been both hilarious and helpful... chatgpt.com/g/g-67edaaa3...

@miroahti.bsky.social - also unclear why this is showing up in your Python feed?

@miroahti.bsky.social - any chance you could exclude #rstats from your Python feed? Annoying trend of R folks tagging or mentioning Python and ending up in your feed…
