You might not need a Python class :: Adam Grant —
Python is an incredibly versatile programming language known for its simplicity and readability. Among its features, the ability to use classes for object-oriented programming is both powerful and frequently recommended. However, classes aren’t always the best solution. In many cases, Python’s built...

A couple weeks ago I went heads-down and experimented with a new development model. The results were unexpected: a production-ready application, ~800 commits, and 100+ PRs in a single week.
The core idea was to stop coding linearly and instead manage a swarm of ~20 parallel AI agents. This required ...

3D Modeling with Paper
Over the past several years, I've enjoyed the hobby of paper modeling (or papercraft), the art of creating 3D models from cut and glued parts from paper sheets. This hobby is a superset of origami, in that it allows for cutting and gluing, as well as for multip...

Things you can do with a debugger but not with print debugging
People do or do not use debuggers for a variety of reasons. For one thing, they are hard to setup in many codebases. Second, you can’t use them when your application is running on remote environments (such as kuberenetes). So, anecdotally, I have seen way more people using Print/log.Debug
