So you think the planet will last enough for humanity to actually deploy IPv6, let alone exhaust it?
That's a good one xDD

Roses are red,
Tecophilaea cyanocrocus are blue,
But they're nearly extinct in the wild due to habitat loss and overharvesting,
So be prepared to pay a lot for them and buy only nursery-propagated corms.

It's truly pathetic that certain groups/organizations only make their information available via closed spying silos like those. Unacceptable.

It's always nice when you talk to someone about why they should free their program, and they do (and under GPLv3+ no less.)AJ Jordan, zykotick9, Elena ``of Valhalla'', Christopher Allan Webber likes this.
Numbers

Rough estimate is that 65% of the time I spend on hardware-hacking projects is me googling for the official names of tiny non-electronics parts like wire-harnesses and snap connectors. EEs are born knowing this stuff; it isn't fair.

The Internet Of Self-inflicted Harm
Nathan Willis at 2018-01-02T15:35:21Z
I've been reading a lot of home-automation blogs recently, for the purpose of planning out a few HA projects at WillisFarms.
It's pretty alarming to me to see how many of the people involved in this hobby default to using
- WiFi for the in-house network of things like unencrypted sensors
- Sending their data out over the Internet in order to access it, rather than sending in to a local server on their LAN
- Signing up for some commercial web service as a gateway between their sensors and whatever their state engine or front-end app is, rather than using a local MQTT server
I mean, we expect the commercial IOT industry to do horribly insecure and privacy-destroying things, but why is the DIY community doing this to itself?

Feliz Año Nuevo
Happy New Year
Happy GNU Year
Lots of work to do in 2018… But this is happiness, I guess… to have health and friends and motivation to work for the Good and the Commons. This is my wish for 2018 for me and for all of you.

Point taken about nose. nose2 on the other hand is developing slowly but is alive.
Alternative view: nose2 was perfected on 2016-06-29.
It's just unittest plus a thin layer of command-line options, test discovery and presentation. Tests are plain unittest.clacke@libranet.de ❌ at 2017-09-28T01:24:06Z

This makes me sad. Plain unittest is very bare-bones, pytest has a bewildering array of add-ons and little guidance about which ones to use... and also the whole non-unittest-testing thing too. Nose had really good defaults out-of-the-box (including capturing stdout/stderr/logging) and a lot of high-quality plugins bundled with it.Of course, I'm sad to see nose wither, but not so sad that I want to take up maintainership myself.Screwtape at 2017-09-28T01:31:17Z

unittest is a pretty bad name, as it's really just about testing really. Whether it's unit testing is up to the person writing the test.
Is anybody out there using any of the rspec- or cucumber-like things that exist for Python?Jason Self at 2017-09-05T22:29:06Z

Unfortunately though it looks like they already reset the admissions system for the new year, so I don't have access to the letter anymore :(
