EuroPython 2019 Django Girls Workshop

[M.-A. Lemburg]

Would you like to know about how to build websites, how the internet
works and would you like to try programming your own first blog, but
don’t know where to start? We have good news for you: we are holding a


one-day Django Girls workshop for beginners !

* https://ep2019.europython.eu/events/django-girls/ *


Where and when
--

The workshop will be held on Monday, July 8th in the EuroPython 2019
conference venue FHNW Campus Muttenz from 09:30 – 17:00.

What to expect
--

During the workshop you will work through a tutorial in a small group
of three attendees and one coach. Our coaches are software developers
who contribute their time, knowledge and energy for you and Django
Girls. All you need is a working laptop, and we’ll help you with the
rest.

You can attend the workshop for free! Your motivation counts, let us
know about it in your application.

Registering for the workshop


The workshop is aimed at women with little or no programming
experience, but may also be useful if you’ve learned a different
discipline (like data science) and would like to learn how to build
websites with Django.

The workshop is free to attend, but you have to apply and be
accepted. We only have 30 seats available for the workshop, and we’ll
pick the best applicants based on the information you provide you
provide on the form.

If you’d like to attend: apply here:

https://djangogirls.org/basel/

Workshop coaches


We can’t run this workshop without coaches! A coach will be assigned
to each group of 3 attendees. Their job is to support and encourage
their team as they work through the Django Girls tutorial at their own
pace.

If you’d like to apply to be a coach, please sign up here:

EuroPython 2019: Please configure your tickets

[M.-A. Lemburg]

Since our website was updated this year, we would like to remind you
how you can configure your tickets and profiles, so that we get the
right information for printing badges and adjusting catering counts.

We also had a few issues with the ticket configuration and assignments
last week. As a result, some of the ticket name changes you may have
made were lost. Please do consider assigning tickets to other rather
than just changing the name on the ticket, since that way, we receive
information about the new ticket owner’s preferences as well.

Please see our blog post for full details

https://blog.europython.eu/post/185197692557/europython-2019-please-configure-your-tickets

It covers these topics:

- Assigning tickets to other people
- Configuring your ticket
- Printing your invoice
- Configuring your EuroPython account
  - profile
  - privacy settings

Re: PEP 594 cgi & cgitb removal

Paul Rubin :



It also makes me ask why the Python team keeps
adding new stuff if it can't even keep the old stuff running.


Because the new stuff is expected to be more useful to more people than 
some of the old modules.  The module proposed for deletion are all or 
most all more than 20 years old, before there was a PyPI.  Some, like 
cgi and cgitb were legitimately put in the stdlib.  Others were 
specialist modules that today would not go in the stdlib.


Does anyone really think that gopherlib should still be in the stdlib, 
and that core developers should have to update its docs to explain it to 
newbies today?


I would want a better reason than "I don't wanna" to remove something 
from stdlib, much as I would want a better reason than "I want it" to 
add something.  I agree that case is pretty much self-evident with 
gopherlib, which honestly would had trouble convincing me it should be 
included in the first place.  I don't think it is at all self-evident 
for cgi and cgitb, even if I wouldn't have written them like that myself ;-)


My question is why people who value and understand old modules don't 
volunteer more to help keep them up to date.


As I said (and was apparently misinterpreted), I am considering it.

Re: More CPUs doen't equal more speed

[Marek Mosiewicz]

Do you do it as separate process or thread.

There is https://wiki.python.org/moin/GlobalInterpreterLock

so you need to spawn many processes

I've got a short script that loops though a number of files and processes
them one at a time. I had a bit of time today and figured I'd rewrite the
script to process the files 4 at a time by using 4 different instances of
python. My basic loop is:

for i in range(0, len(filelist), CPU_COUNT):
 for z in range(i, i+CPU_COUNT):
 doit( filelist[z])

With the function doit() calling up the program to do the lifting. Setting
CPU_COUNT to 1 or 5 (I have 6 cores) makes no difference in total speed.
I'm processing about 1200 files and my total duration is around 2 minutes.
No matter how many cores I use the total is within a 5 second range.

This is not a big deal ... but I really thought that throwing more
processors at a problem was a wonderful thing :) I figure that the cost of
loading the python libraries and my source file and writing it out are
pretty much i/o bound, but that is just a guess.

Maybe I need to set my sights on bigger, slower programs to see a
difference :)

It appears you are trying to execute a linux shell command while in
the python repl.  exit python, and try again
