I'm sorry, but I think of software development as primarily a social activity. Attempts to redefine it as science or engineering strike me as misguided.

@nedbat Python core developer Lisa Roach has a nice how-to video on techniques for mock objects.

#python news: @nedbat posted a thought-provoking piece about mock objects and unit testing.

I also like its clear and beautiful diagrams.

Alan Kay hangs out on @Quora. Here is his answer to
"... what are some really old (or even nearly forgotten) books you think every new programmer should read?" https://t.co/GjYqbL5e0t

@lviolinl @pytestdotorg That code is not Python, it's "SubPascal", the language described in chapter 1 of "Programming Languages: an Interpreter-Based Approach", by Samuel Kamin. It looks like Lisp, but feels like Pascal.

@lviolinl @cool_python @fluentpython @fluentpython is for poeple who already code in #Python. It shows ways to use the best features of the language, from basic features like tuples and Unicode strings to more advanced ones like decorators and descriptors.

My Phoenix LiveView writeup is out! It details our latest progress and shows off a bunch of demo applications. We show autocomplete in 35 LOC, a complete snake game in 330 LOC, and how our optimizations match hand-written JSON in payload size.

@seancribbs @jessitron I really like "safelist" and "blocklist". They are self-describing.

Hey @yakticus today I was pleased to read @zhamakd's reporting (on an internal @thoughtworks group) from @ScaleByTheBay mentioning your talk on MLops and Metaflow @netflix as the most interesting and impressive. You both rock!
