  1. 1/4 Tried to watch the Radical with Amol Rajan Today #Podcast for the #BBC. The episode on social mobility with Joe Seddon, founder of #zerogravity

    Truly dreadful: in the sense of being both bad and frightening.

    Apparently, there are some #universities just not worth attending and some #university degree courses not worth taking – because they fail to deliver sufficient economic benefit for both society and individual students-as-consumers, and can therefore be judged as being of ‘poor quality’. In many cases, it seems, doing an apprenticeship is preferable to attending a ‘less selective’ university.

    What, exactly, is radical about this? Especially when one considers that, historically, it has been at such universities that many people from working- and lower-middle-class backgrounds have encountered radical economic and political ideas, often through fields such as media and #culturalstudies and #CulturalTheory

  6. I maintain OSS projects, and I constantly juggle git repos, issue trackers, CI, reviews, terminals, coding agents, logs, and random operational tasks.

    Most developer dashboards try to solve this by replacing your workflow with their workflow.

    Your editor becomes secondary. Your terminal disappears. Git becomes a button inside somebody else’s UI. Eventually the dashboard becomes the place where everything has to happen.

  7. April issue is out!

    I’m tweaking the newsletter to better match what Python data engineers care about: less visualization, more data munging.

    So expect a bit less Shiny and Streamlit, and more ADBC, SQLGlot, and practical ecosystem updates.

  8. I have been thinking for a while that I wanted to write a blog post on how the problem of inspecting "hostile python environments" exists and how picopip was born as a solution to that problem.

    This evening I decided it was finally time to put might thoughts in line and write them down. I hope it will be at least an interesting read for some people.
