Steuererklärung im Kanton #Thurgau mit eFisc auf #NixOS. Geht nicht, weil der #Kanton #TG nur #Ubuntu und #SuSE unterstützt? Seit heute kein Problem mehr. #eFisc installieren mit dem #Nix #Package von @painless_software. https://gitlab.com/painless-software/efisc-nix #Switzerland #Swiss #tax #Linux #Java #Abraxas
Looks like the next-generation low-JavaScript coding solution has arrived. Django LiveView, the HTMX competitor that passes HTML via WebSocket. Looking forward to getting my hands dirty with it! 😍 🐍 🐴 https://django-liveview.andros.dev/ by @andros #django #python #lowjs #htmx #websocket

ThomasDas war in der agilen Community los (Woche vom 05.12. – 12.12.)
Wir hinterfragen, ob wir uns mit "Sprints" eigentlich nur kaputt rennen, lachen (oder weinen) über Teams mit 17% Zielerreichung und diskutieren, ob Agile im Zeitalter der "Enshittification" überhaupt noch eine Chance hat. Wenig Theorie, viel schmerzhafte Praxis.
Hier die Highlights 👇

I'm working in a team that just completed a sprint with 17%(!) completion of the planned work. Almost *everything* is spilled over to the next sprint. It's ridiculous.
Large organizations fill sprints to prove they are busy. But what are sprints designed for? To give #confidence! You can't give confidence when you're constantly spilling over.
Just use a #Kanban board to show off how busy you are. Don't engage in #enshittification of #Scrum, treating "spillover" as a chic, must-use word. #agile

Mind-blowing explanation of the current state of #AI and the false promise of #vibe #coding. Read all 10 posts in this enlightening thread! 💡🤯
Nick LockwoodBut the idea that natural language makes it easier for non-programmers to program is a misunderstanding
Programming is not about transcribing English to code, it's the art of turning vague requirements into concrete ones - identifying and filling in the blanks so that an imprecise spec becomes precise
When you "vibe code" you are asking an LLM to do that work - and they are remarkably good at it - but that is not *programming*, because you are not identifying and eliminating those ambiguities
A great write-up on #async vs #multiprocessing in #Python. Many teams face that problem for data science tasks with external data consumption (e.g. using #Kafka), but don't understand the underlying mechanics. There's no magic bullet; engineering is a #discipline. https://pythonspeed.com/articles/two-thread-pools/ by @itamarst #datascience #threadpools #performance #optimization
