“In just a few short months, Python 2 will officially reach the end of its supported life.    This means that anyone building applications in Python will need to have moved to Python 3 if they want to keep getting updates including, importantly, fixes for any security vulnerabilities in the core of Python or in the standard library.” 

“I hear more voices saying there is little point in doing time-based estimations on how long building software will take, and thus we should just stop doing it. "Let's just use story points and estimate complexity, but not the time" and "Let's just try #noestimates" are suggestions people around me recently brought up. I'm personally skeptical of both approaches. While I do think that doing time-based estimates is really hard, it comes with so many benefits for those who keep doing it.” 

“My kids and I have enjoyed building various structures in the game Minecraft, but it can get rather monotonous placing blocks one-at-a-time. I took a very brief look at the custom “mods” available, but wanted something more compositional, hence the idea for a Haskell DSL was born. The aim is to build a skeleton structure, thereby eliminating the most repetitive parts of manual construction, for example walls, floors, roofs etc. We can then enjoy furnishing the structures by hand in the actual game.” 

“Management is the mostnoble of professions if it’s practiced well.No other occupation offers as many waysto help others learn and grow, takeresponsibility and be recognized forachievement, and contribute to thesuccess of a team.” 

“This is a step-by-step tutorial that details how to configure Flask to run on Docker with Postgres. For production environments, we'll add on Nginx and Gunicorn. We'll also take a look at how to serve static and user-uploaded media files via Nginx.”
