@iwootten I love cookie cutter - makes scaffolding super easy. I’ve also been using Projen at work which has a different take on setting up/managing projects - it’s worth a look if there’s value for you in having consistency across project configurations

@GeoWithJustin I'd say try to get a basic grasp of how Pandas' DataFrames and their operations work, then move onto GeoPandas with an eye on understanding the GeoDataframe/GeoSeries and how to work with them. Good luck - definitely a tool worth having in the toolkit!

Hey friends - I'm looking for contract work. If you have any code that needs writing or servers that need wrangling, I can probably help. My DMs are open. 👍

This morning I’ve been adapting the @OctopusEnergy code conventions to fit one of my own projects.

It’s a really helpful repo for #python/#django based projects https://t.co/zCqfHFbxsy

@iwootten I’m guilty of sitting at the desk with headphones on but no music playing… it has helped get over the laziness of having to pick some kind of background sound

I can’t resolve local FQDNs if 1.1.1.1 is set as a secondary dns server. If I remove it, then it works fine… maybe something to do with choosing DNS over HTTPS if available?

[James Gardiner 🐍 @_JamesRG]

Word of warning for those upgrading to #ios 16.1 - local DNS seems to be disregarded if a secondary public dns server is specified
