Brian #1: Open Source Pledge

Learned about this because of this post
- Why Django supports the Open Source Pledge
Steps
- Pay Open Source maintainers.
  - Min to participate is 2k/year/dev at your company
- Self-report annually
  - Publish a blog post outlining your payments
Armin’s post about launching Open Source Pledge and mixing money with open source

Michael #2: Jeff Triplet's DjangoTV

A nice aggregation of lots of Django conference talks

Brian #3: PEP 735 – Dependency Groups in pyproject.toml

Author: Stephen Rosen, Sponsor: Brett Cannon, PEP-Delegate: Paul Moore
Accepted. Resolotion Oct 10, 2024
“This PEP specifies a mechanism for storing package requirements in pyproject.toml files such that they are not included in any built distribution of the project.”
Allow us to define named groups of dependencies that can be independent of the main project.

ex:

[dependency-groups]
test = ["pytest", "coverage"]
docs = ["sphinx", "sphinx-rtd-theme"]
typing = ["mypy", "types-requests"]
typing-test = [{include-group = "typing"}, {include-group = "test"}, "useful-types"]

“might” work like this: pip install --dependency-groups=test,typing
- but tool venders are able to define how they use groups. Of course.
Similar solutions
- multiple requirements.txt files: requirements_test.txt, requirements_docs.txt, etc.
  - no standard naming convention, not standardized
- package extras:
  - not gauranteed to be statically defined (TIL)
  - additional to main dependencies, so not independent

Michael #4: livereload

Example from talkpython.fm: asset_bundler_watcher.py
The docs are sparse, so see the gist above

Joke:

A programmer’s partner asks them: “Would you go get a loaf of bread from the store? And if they have eggs, get a dozen.”
A while later, the programmer returns with 12 loaves of bread and says “They had eggs.”
