I wrote on post on why you should start using polars in 2025 based on personal experiences

Setting up the #raspberrypi w a BMP180 sensor to track barometric pressure was easier than I expected, even with a bit of soldering required.

This is a self note about the #python code that does all the heavy lifting while my little DIY weather station quietly logs atmospheric data every hour.

Got set up to go to @NorthBayPython conference in a few weeks.

Fun little surprise for me: my employer (Sonic.net) is a Silver level sponsor this year.

Need to add some padding characters to a string in #Python?

You can use string methods or f-strings. Here are a few examples:

One of my favorite Python two liners is this:

with open(myfilename, 'r') as f:
lines = [stripped for line in f if (stripped := line.strip()) and not stripped.startswith('#')]

It's a bit nicer than the previous version I used pre walrus operator.

Day 4 of the 5-day Generative AI intensive course by Kaggle and Google covered, among other things, Search Grounding:

With this technique, you can enrich generative AI models with up-to-date and reliable information from the internet — in this case by connecting them to Google Search.

That means the model no longer relies solely on its training data but also integrates information retrieved from search results.

So what's the difference to RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?

There’s no need to build and manage your own retrieval system (like a vector database), since the additional data is fetched via an API from a search engine.

Ya está disponible en mi blog la primera entrega de mi serie de tutoriales de #Pyxel, donde enseñaré a programar un clon de Pong.

En esta primera entrega de introducción explico un poco que es Pyxel y programar el típico Hola mundo.

#dask is strange. Sometimes using the dask counterpart to numpy functions or arrays makes computations slower. Sometimes not. Also, lots of variability in runtime. #python #dataengineering

Quite often, Python provides multiple ways for performing the same task. Does it matter which one you choose? It might do!
