Current state of agentic code:
- would bring on as an intern
- might hire as a contractor
- would not offer full time position
Picked up a #10 (11 3/4”) Wagner cast iron skillet yesterday. Minor cleaning needed. A couple tiny rust spots. Tried it out this morning against a deep dish glass pie pan for Dutch babies. Worked great.
Typo for the day: BSCode

Next steps:
- record audio book
- incorporate any changes that seem necessary for the audio book into ebook
- buy some ISBNs
- figure out Amazon and audible stuff
- release in audio, ebook, and print Until then, available here as epub and pdf https://courses.pythontest.com/lean-tdd/
Large portion of my email inbox:
- You know that podcast you stopped doing? Want us to put it on YouTube for you?
- I’d like to write a guest post for your podcast website that isn’t a blog and no longer has guests. Interested?
No, I’m not interested.
I’m “helping” with trig homework and 🤯 I barely understood it 40 years ago.
I know I don’t say it enough, so I’ll say it again.
I love `tox -p`

Could sleep with that out there. Lean TDD 0.6.1 updated

Gonna start recording ebook version soon @brianokken@fosstodon.org
I smell a challenge @treyhunner@mastodon.social

@ogi @tacaswell @mpirnat Even that though. What STEM field working professionals use calculators over using programming libraries?
Thanks Brian for this update. @btskinn@fosstodon.org
Are we sure Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang isn’t himself an AI generated personality?

Decided to not support xpass if the test isn’t marked xfail, mostly for speed reasons, it would slightly slow down the common case of passing checks. May revisit decision in the future.
pytest-check, with version 2.7.2, is down to
- one issue (and it's a nebulous feature request)
- no outstanding pull requests
Feels good to be caught up for a moment.

@tacaswell @mpirnat I think we need to talk. I was under the impression that trig was to prepare you for calculus , and calculus was purely to filter out 75% of people from science fields. I’d like to know what you use it for.
Pushed version 0.6 of Lean TDD and just noticed all of the footnotes are wrong. 😢🤦♂️
Too tired. I’ll fix it tomorrow.

@ogi @tacaswell @mpirnat I think both sides are true. Encourage more people to advance further in math and others to advance in their fields without the math gate.

@CodenameTim@fosstodon.org @djangonaut@indieweb.social Inwas going to announce this on @pythonbytes@fosstodon.org today. 3.5 min is too long, but if you want to share a few sentences in text form for me to read, that’d be great.

VSCode Zen Mode, lovely!

@ehmatthes I was more thinking of a way to collect return values that indicate success. Like in conjunction with all or any and bool return values. But sure, there’s that also
Replying to
@ogi @tacaswell @mpirnat I wonder how many scientific and engineering breakthroughs and advances have been lost to society because the inventor had been filtered out of STEM due to antiquated hand calculation requirements

@wsha @pythonbytes @mkennedy It’s a manual process operated by me and some weeks I don’t get it done. Sorryy about that.
