@mkennedy I think the volume of the new jingle sound on “Talk Python to me” is quite higher than the sound of the rest of the podcast. At least on Spotify.

    @deshipu strange, then why do you do all this?

    I really don't want to dive into #Emacs's source code, or to debug which mode(s) and/or part(s) of the code I'm writing are triggering this, but hanging each time I'm typing three quotation marks and hitting Return is making writing #Python code a tad harder than it should be.

    @CyrilBrulebois do you use LSP?

    I found out today that the :emacs: ivy-posframe project is looking for a new maintainer. I hope the project can find someone(s) to keep the lights on.

    @Mehrad nooo, I just stsrted using it couple of months ago and I really like it

    One of the things I regret most in my life is that I did not become a scientist doing immensely cool stuff, like doing research in the Antarctic. The only thing left for me is read their blogs. This is one of them and I highly recommend it: https://brr.fyi/posts/south-pole-arrival

    @stfn I’ve been thinking the same recently. Being a scientist seems cooler that normal life 😂

    Finally! Managed to bind keyboard layout change to work with Emacs on Mac OS with the same key. Using #Karabiner, I map CapsLock (my lang change on MacOS) to Option-o, but just for #Emacs. Then in Emacs I bind M-o (keymap-global-set "M-o" 'toggle-input-method).

    circfruit,
    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mykhaylo when you first told me about it I had a look at its github page and it didn’t seem any different than manually edit karabiner json config. Since you recommend it again, I’ll actually install it 😄

    circfruit,
    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mykhaylo ah, I see. I guess it’s easier for heavy kbd modifications

    Yesterday when typing in a Google doc, autocomplete suggested the name of an interview subject. I do not store any qual data in Google Drive and all my transcripts use aliases anyway, so it freaked me out. I’m guessing gdocs uses gmail data (at least addresses) as autocomplete fodder and I know I have emailed this person from my university email (gmail) account. I’m guessing AI is going to lead to a lot of inadvertent data leakage as autocomplete++ generates more content. Be careful out there.

    @markigra they scape even the paid Workspace accounts. I have few passport copies uploaded there from few years back and the admin console suggested I remove them. How do they know if the files are passport scans.. they’ve been OCR-ing and scraping without permission for years.

    hey homelabbers, do you use any special tools to track the devices in your LAN, their hostnames and ip adresses? Something else than a text file with a list?

    circfruit,
    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @stfn I just use .local domain for the linux machines which have a hostname. Works well so far

    @stfn I have planned for a future project to track vessel transponders as I live at the coast, however afaik the antenna should be a bit different. Think vesselfinder.com but local

    #Emacs I tried ‘activate-transient-input-method’ so that Emacs accepts key chords while using foreign layout. I had the impression that input method also changes with the global Mac OS kbd layout key, but it’s not. So now we have two keys to change layout, one on global OS level and one for Emacs. That’s kind of inconvenient. I tried to remap Mac OS kbd layout key to the Emacs one, however OS overrides Emacs key binding and Emacs input change doesn’t work because OS already changed the layout.

    circfruit,
    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mykhaylo if you also use Mac OS it’s worth experimenting with Karabiner remaping. I still can’s figure out its json config though.

    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mykhaylo interesting! Thanks for sharing I’ll have a look 👍

    So I've listened to @LateNightLinux Christmas special episode, where the hosts were asked "how to make the internet better?". I fully agree with the views presented there. Decentralization, federation, selfhosting are the ways to make the internet better, go back to the pre-capitalist times before monopolies. One thing that I feel was not mentioned is finding a way to tackle CGNAT and other obstacles in self hosting. 1/x

    @stfn @LateNightLinux ipv6 or you just buy public ipv4, I doubt your isp doesnt sell those separately. Usually they do.

    I finished the first chapter of the fast.ai course on Machine Learning, and I am amazed! It's incredible how easy now people without a technical background (aka me) can start diving into ML and actually doing something cool, like creating an image recognition script. By following the Jupyter Notebook code in the course I created a script to differentiate between images of birds and forests, and later on I modified it to recognize Airbus A320 vs Boeing 737 :D

    Is there an #Emacs user out there who is using a fairly modern environment (e.g. eglot, tree-sitter, company) for Python development?

    Could I ask how you do this? Every time I enable python-ts-mode[1], Emacs uses up all the memory in my system and explodes. I am able to use a more conservative “just use tree-sitter for syntax highlighting” approach[2], but it feels like I am missing something awesome.

    Help! Any tips appreciated.

    @harish I’m using eglot with company and pylsp. Couple of days ago installed ruff with pylsp. Works well over tramp too! Haven’t had success with tree-sitter though, for some reason it messes my setup.

    circfruit,

    @harish hmm, I’m using ready mac os build as well and ts not working. Not a coincidence at all.

    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    Hey #emacs users, if you write #Python , how do you setup and use venv in Emacs? Any good articles about the workflow?

    circfruit,
    @circfruit@fosstodon.org avatar

    @mykhaylo good idea! The only Env I really use is the python one but it might worth trying.

    What’s unnerving for a software developer?

    $ git push
    fatal: repository github.com/mikeckennedy/latest_project/ not found

    !!! Looks like GitHub is basically down for now. So let’s all wish it a quick return. :)

    @mkennedy indeed!
