Many thanks to the @pdfarranger@pdfarranger people!
I recently had to deal with hundreds of pages being inserted as appendixes on my PhD thesis and it was a breeze (the PDF manipulation was a breeze not the thesis, mind you :blob_clown:)

The last few days I’ve been converting some charts to grayscale and adding letters to them in order to improve accessibility. Inskscape’s “Replace Colour” extension made things much easier.

I wonder if I could one day try my hand at making an improved variation of that extension that could save and reload a dictionary of replacements to help apply them to multiple files

Another idea would be to allow replacement color fills with patterns and vice versa!

Let me save this on vault of ideas for the future :)

I’m still looking for people, podcasts, events talking about #Python without assuming everyone is a software developer or a “data scientist”.

Why are data journalists, type designers (Guido’s brother!), Blender wizards, FreeCAD hackers, hobbyist game makers, casual automation buffs, robot tweakers, MicroPython enthusiasts, creative coders, educators, biologists, astronomers and other scientists, consistently ignored?

Are we f*ing invisible? One of Python Brasil keynoters kind of just did that. My heart sank. Other talks, like the Art&FLOSS one, by Jim Schmitz, lessened my pain.

Where is the follow up for that 2017 keynote by Jake VanderPlas?

This thing about making software run on other people’s computers can be pretty hard!

No wonder I think I’ve heard this is one of the things that distinguishes professional software development from [my preferred domain of] things such as “end-user programming” etc.

The problem is that when you start sharing code in the context of a FLOSS project you almost immediately get enmeshed in concerns about packaging and how other people will install stuff, when sometimes you just don’t want to be a professional software developer! 😿

I’m always borrowing terms (learning ideas) from @lr like: incidental complexity. I hate incidental complexity or maybe I just fear incidental complexity. Can we escape incidental complexity? I guess not.

Dear @doctormo@doctormo, I’m a great admirer of your work in general and hopefully I won’t creep you out by telling everyone I’m your fan!

As a creator of digital vector-based art I find the color management stuff (trying to figure how to generate things to print “in CMYK”) mind boggling. I slowly try to read and acquire the concepts and vocabulary to understand more about this. I’m grateful for your work in this area. Thank you!
