Just used operator.itemgetter to reorder values of a dictionary.

Quite neat snippet of code:

from operator import itemgetter  
d = {"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3}  
it = "cab"  
print(itemgetter(*it)(d)) # (3, 1, 2)

I fixed 2 bugs today. Coincidentally, the two bugs in combination produced the correct behaviour in my app. 🤷‍♂️

Did you know you can use #Python's zipapp 🐍 module to make an executable zipfile? 💡

See the example below where I create one combining 1. an Amazon affiliation link generator script of mine + 2. a PyPI package 🎉

@mkennedy @brianokken Wouldn't be surprised if this is already on your radar. Pretty cool stuff!

Developers over 40. What advice would you give to developers just starting their career?

Here's a Markdown tip which I don't think is well known.

Triple backticks marks a code block. But if your code happens to contain three backticks you can use quadruple backtacks (or more) for the code block.

i.e.

print("```")

I published a thing. Not an official @textualizeio project, just a personal thing.

It's an alternative way of declaring #Python class attributes, that adds validation and watching.

It's a bit experimental. Let me know what you think!

Double plus good!

Convinced Claude Opus that 2 + 2 is in fact 5.

Here's how to style inline TUI apps in #textual

Really looking forward to seeing what folk build with this. I haven't quite seen anything like it in the wild.

How do you go about evaluating a #Python module for your project?

i.e. by what criteria would you consider before adding a library to your dependancies?

New #Textual feature in the works! What do you think?

We got a human-submitted, AI-generated PR for @pillow that claimed to speedup an internal function by 54%.

It presented no benchmark script, so I benchmarked and found no noticeable improvement.

The PR claimed the "new optimized code was tested for correctness" and offered some "Generated Regression Tests" that it declared passed.

I ran them. After fixing an import error, the tests failed for both the PR and main.

No thank you, Codeflash AI.

The next version of #Textual will have an "inline" mode. Basically any Textual app can run under the prompt, with full mouse support.

This really seems to be capturing people's imagination. So many possibilities here...
