Django News - Django 5.2 Beta 1 & DjangoCongress JP goes live! - Feb 21st 2025 https://django-news.com/issues/273

Interesting episode by theprimeagen on degrading code quality because of AI. I think this is the downside we should be aware of. youtu.be/Et8CqMu_e6s?...

django-tailwind-cli has now the ability to always use the latest version of the CLI. If you need a certain version, you can still pin it by setting TAILWIND_CLI_VERSION to the desired value. github.com/django-commons/djan… #django #python

Es wäre ein herber Verlust, wenn Steffi Lemke nach den Wahlen nicht mehr Umweltministerin wäre.

I just released the first version of django-tailwind-cli that supports Tailwind CSS 4.x properly, but it still supports 3.x. Some things have been removed and changed to support both versions. #django #python pypi.org/project/djan...

Nach der falschen Bild-Schlagzeile “Klima-Radikale attackieren Autos mit Bauschaum” gab es vielleicht eine Datscha als Prämie vom Kreml. Ein Serbe, ein Bosnier und ein Deutscher wurden auf frischer Tat erwischt, einer sagte Ermittlern, sie seien von einem Russen zu den Attacken angestiftet worden.

First time I had to use a parameterized fixture in pytest. That is such a handy feature right now, as I have to run my test suite with Tailwind CSS 3.x and 4.x. docs.pytest.org/en/latest/ho... #TIL #python

Spent a wonderful evening with friends. And I love the scenic view of Bad Ems. Still not sure if I prefer the calm days in winter or the busier days, with all the tourists.

We have lost the middle ground with so many topics. Currently, it feels like there are only extremes. People behave like everything is a binary topic — black or white, true or false, … It weighs heavily on me and costs so much energy.

Off to Bielefeld. First business trip this year. This time I took an IC 2. Not bad, even though it is not as comfortable as an ICE.

https://micro.blog is such a wonderful service. First time I feel really at home with a blogging service. The backend is not as polished as some others, but I can achieve all the tweaking of themes and so on in a way I understand. Pragmatic > polished.

Plan for this weekend. Apply the finishing touches to django-tailwind-cli to support Tailwind CSS version 3 and 4. So far the test suite works without errors. The docs need some love now.

ACAB, i.e. "Abolish Capitalism And Billionaires"

My micro.blog got a now page. I love the idea created by Derek Sivers. It adds a convenient way to show what you are up to at the moment. Way more personal than social media posts.

This is a rather typical image from my home office. While I work, my beloved cat is sleeping in the crook of my arm. 🐾🎧 #CatLife #WorkFromHomeVibes

I took my Switch out of the cupboard again and decided to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild once more. I really like the style of this game. And I need something less violent and less bloody than the stuff on my Xbox.

Mal abgesehen von den Kosten fragt ja auch keiner woher die Brennstäbe herkommen sollen ohne Verbrecher zu unterstützen 🤷‍♂️

I joined pixelfed. Not sure, what to do with it yet. I am by no means a great photographer. More like a motivated dilettante. But it is cool to try a new service. And it seems as the feed can be consumed, and the pictures can be posted here too.

Fine. Even more, that's fantastic. Let it go to h***. Next up, Europe, please 🙏

Meta is scared of Pixelfed. This is the biggest endorsement of Pixelfed that I've seen so far.

Nice, a little service I can run on my homeserver to sync bsky and mastodon. Handy to crosspost from Mastodon to bsky. https://github.com/klausi/mastodon-bluesky-sync/tree/main

Katzen und Sisalteppiche sind keine gute Kombination. Die Haare und die K**tze harmonieren nicht so richtig gut mit dem Material. Ich glaube, ich brauch was Neues für unter den Schreibtisch.

I returned to iTerm 2. Today I found out that my favorite color scheme is available for iTerm 2 too. Welcome to my shell, Monokai Pro. https://monokai.pro/iterm

Confession: I still don't feel like I'm going back to work on Monday.

I found a backup solution for my home server and blogged about my set-up. Actually it took me longer to write this article than to complete the set up. https://andrich.me/2025/01/11/backup-for-my-home-server.html

Was nimmt man den aktuell unter #Debian #linux um ein Offsite Backup des Servers zu machen? Da es ein kleiner Heimserver ist, muss es nichts super ausgefuchstes sein.

It seems that my plan to visit FOSDEM this year is falling through. But there is still a small chance that I will make it to Brussels in time after all.

What a wonderful thread on light mode vs dark mode. I am usually also in the light mode camp as it is less stressful for my eyes. I associate it with my farsightedness. But this analysis of the pupil size and the impact it has on the optical system is an eye opener.

Es ist langsam schwer zu verstehen, dass Medienhäuser, Bundesbehörden und Politiker:innen (und ehrlich gesagt auch Individuen) weiterhin auf X posten. Für Recherchezwecke: Klar, verstehe ich. Aber aktiv posten und interagieren? Elon Musk will das Ende der Meinungsfreiheit, und alle machen mit.

I think, today I will work a bit on the django-tailwind-cli beta release that supports Tailwind CSS 4 beta CLIs.

Matt dreht ja weiter auf oder besser gesagt ab… #wordpress

Back to writing week notes again. It felt good to write a bit again and I try to make this a habit again. https://andrich.me/2025/01/10/week-notes.html
