#GitHub #GitHubPages #fail This is driving me mad…

Images randomly deciding not to load on all my pages.

Is it just me? Is it my browser’s fault? Is it just in Brazil?

I was working on this #shapely + #trimesh page… and I can only see the last image (the animated gif)!

Update: On this exact page I have bungled the image URLs (I blame Marktext for being stupid and not using a relative reference). But I swear loading problems have been going on other well formed pages.

So 429: Too Many Requests on my GitHub hosted images, breaking my tutorials etc… Not good!

July will be gone and my escape to Codeberg.org has not even started (I have to finish my PhD…)

This is your friendly reminder that you could be making #PaperObjects with #Python and #py5, you know?

Chamada aberta pro encontro brasileiro de programação criativa - Compoética 2025 … https://compoetica.github.io/links/

I wish I could watch this (maybe they’ll record it… but I’m not sure):

“From #Fortran to #Python: A Conversation Across Generations of #ScientificComputing” #PyOhio

“Explicando Dados #Geoespaciais em #Python”

#GIS #geospatial

The command line version is here:

https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/pngs_to_gif.py

I should add a “public domain dedication” to both scripts…

#Python #imageio #GIFAnimation

I have this very simple #Python script that uses #imageio to convert all PNG files on a folder into a #GIFAnimation, and this is a #FreeSimpleGUI version of it (I usually run a command line version).

As I usually run #gifsicle on the command line after creating a GIF, I decided to update it to add #pygifsicle to do it for me and save a step.

Another hacky #Python script using the #HackMD API… this one is to change the write permissions… you might want to adapt it or check out the other API helper methods:

Impossible Linux things in my to-do list:

• Fix erratically jumping mouse wheel scrolling on a Dell
  
• Make a “SysRq key” work so I can do “REISUB” or something, when my computer freezes
  

I must have spent days (multiples of 24 hours) trying to solve these things and maybe I should just give up.

I suppose that if I had a “Linux experienced” friend by my side these could be solved in minutes, maybe?

#OldManScreamsAtLinux

Pessoas da comunidade brasileira de #ProgramaçãoCriativa por muitos anos fizeram encontros sob o nome promovido pela Fundação Processing, os chamados #ProcessingCommunityDay, fizemos encontros em várias cidades e então depois de 2020, com a pandemia do COVID-19, fizemos três eventos nacionais muito inspiradores em 2021, 2022 e 2023 (vide https://compoetica.github.io/links/)

Ano passado não conseguimos fazer e este ano pretendemos retomar, só que usando outro nome: #Compoética. Vamos aos poucos divulgar mais sobre o encontro brasileiro de programação criativa em https://compoetica.github.io/CP2025/

Meus agradecimentos profundos ao @guilhermesv@guilhermesv que dedica generosamente um enorme esforço para organizar esses eventos da comunidade e cria o design e peças de comunicação sempre emocionantes de lindos.

Lazy-fedi-question… I have a “working”(?) code example of TF-IDF #tfidf using #scikitlearn and I know the main concepts, but all the tutorials I find are a bit — I don’t want to be harsh but —crappy… Can someone point me to some nice open resource on it?

Serasa Experian é uma empresa tão pilantra mas tão pilantra que agora estão descaradamente fazendo spam a partir de emails coletados do registro brasileiro de domínios (Registro.BR) é muito irritante.

I’m watching #TheOrville. Some ideas are interesting but the sense of humor isn’t really to my taste. Maybe a bit on the nose, could I phrase it that way? And the clumsy stuff makes me feel nervous instead of making me laugh.

Do you edit posts endlessly? Also messages, when the platform allows it, trying to fix typos and to clarify things, did I say endlessly?
