Aux USA, les américains en ont assez de ce Patriot Act initiallement approuvé par George Bush, et veulent le réformer. Pourquoi répéter leurs erreurs avec ce projet de loi relatif au Renseignement ??

I recently worked on a short website project using Django & Heroku. It was my very time using this Python framework, and I really liked it !
This is a compendium of tips & tricks that I, as a Django beginner, found quite useful :
Django enhanced shell
To install it :
pip install django …
Die shell script, DIE !
In this post, I'll show how easy it ease to convert fragile shell scripts to Python scripts, using sh.py. I'll use as an example a simple script to check your HTML code from the command-line, using the W3C validator.
Now you ask me, why the …
Sometimes, it's useful to print some source code on paper. And PDF is a very common file format, that you can be sure your printer will accept, and that will let you preview the final page layout. But how to quickly perform syntax-coloring and export to PDF ?

Disclaimer: this post was heaviliy inspired by the 2 following gists:

I loved the simplicity of the first, not having to manipulate any of the logging internal API, but I prefer colorama over termcolor.
Without further ado, there is my solution …
In a nutshell:

Pytest is a very complete test framework for Python. I like how you can write a basic unittest.TestCase and the py.test test runner command will inject all its magic at runtime, without you having to directly import anything: awesome separation of concerns.
This modularity comes at a cost …
Since July 2014, Substack great cross-browsers testing tool testling has been unavailable.
Today I was looking for an alternative to use with ecovoit, my carpooling search engine. Saucelabs is a very interesting solution, and is free for open-source projects.

Under Windows, CPython is shipped with a very useful py command.
PEP-397 describes in details its behaviour, and its C implementation can be found in the CPYthon Mercurial repository.
There has already been a lenghty discussion in the "python-ideas" mailing list to write a Linux equivalent. I agree with what …
L'année dernière, j'avais été touché par l'article de @nicolasy "Noël est passé, mais il vous reste quelques cadeaux à faire !" En cette rentrée 2015, je me permets de lui piquer l'idée.
Certes, la motivation de fin d'année de faire ses derniers dons défisqualisés est passée. Certes, il est un peu …
C'était la prise de conscience rigolote de ce matin :)
Petite explication: plusieurs des services web de géolocalisation gracieusement fournis par Google utilisent la même interface (API). Cette interface requiert de définir une "zone de travail" géographique dans laquelle on va ensuite pouvoir interroger Google sur des adresses, des itinéraries, etc …

In hope it could help others …
Consider the following Python expression:
print("".join(set("ABCDE")))
What do you think it produces ?
Not necessarily "ABCDE". Right, but you would expect the result to be consistent, isn't it ?

En anglais, le titre pourrait se traduire par "The head to the grindstone", soit littéralement "la tête sur la meule à aiguiser". Rigolo non ?
Au vu du sujet cependant, "Tales of a lost afternoon" sonnerait mieux je trouve. En effet, cet article va traiter d'organisation personnelle du temps. Le sujet …
