I'm testing out Djade - a new Django template formatter, and it has already taught me something new!
I didn't know you could load multiple template tags inside a single {% load x y z %} tag. 🤯
I've had multiple {% load ... %} tags on the top of all my template files for years!

We bought some more incredible #Django Stickers from @sjbitcode and @adamghill to give away at our next meet-ups. Grab them from the sticker table!

`el.className` and `el.htmlFor` have such unusual names because `class` and `for` used to be reserved words in JS. That hasn't been true for property names for 10+ years.
Firefox is experimenting with adding `el.class` and `el.for`, yay! github.com/whatwg/html/issue…

What a great testing tool for Python is time-machine!
I was able to stretch my tests to many different cases while keeping a clean API.

It's that time of year again! All compiled Python package maintainers should create binary wheels for Python 3.13! We've just released cibuildwheel 2.20 with Python 3.13's first RC, on by default! Get building! github.com/pypa/cibuildwheel…

I have written about a few gotchas when using SQLite in production:
1. Make sure to configure it correctly
2. No connections over the network
3. Issues with network file systems
4. No parallel writes
5. Problematic long running transactions
... and more!

My thoughts on the GenAI hype. It’s fair to say that I am very interested in everything AWS does. But I fear AWS is no longer interested in what I do.
