pycodestyle

Another linter of sorts for Python, with an emphasis on code style as defined in PEP 8. I tend to use pylint for linting but this seems to be in favour when using lsp-mode in Emacs.

"Director of AI at Tesla" apparently doesn't VC or backup

So the "Director of AI at Tesla" appears to be in the habit of not committing code for at least 2 months at a time, and doesn't do backups... O_o

Using rapid prototyping to choose a bioinformatics workflow management system

Paper about how a group selected a workflow management system. I'm not sure it's that worthy of a writeup, at least not as seen via the lens of a software developer, but it's a useful perspective to read it to get some insight into how others approach this.

Configuring Emacs, lsp-mode and the python language server. - vxlabs

Problems with Emacs on macOS

A Twitter thread about issues with Emacs on macOS and how to work around or plain solve them.

Honestly, as someone who's 100% Emacs/macOS, I'd not really noticed any of these -- but I always run Emacs as a fullscreen application in its own desktop space.

Starboard

Site that sort of provides active JavaScript notebooks, with a view to doing most/all of the work on the client side. I was sort of hoping there'd be a self-host option or something and I'm not seeing that. On the other hand it could be a good tool for tinkering with and prototyping code.

How To Forgive Someone : Life Kit : NPR

An interesting essay on the importance of forgiveness, and how it can be about personal recovery rather than letting someone off the hook for abuse. It’s a tough lesson to learn, but ultimately useful, I’ve found.
