I’m very late on a bunch of weekly status reports, but I’ve got good reason I promise. This summer has been a bit of a “summer of change” for me. Perhaps more renovation than change. First, I decided I was sick of looking and feeling like crap and got into a weight loss program. I’ve [...]

I just finished up reading Start Small, Stay Small and there were some good points in there. One is that writing about your progress on a project each week helps people move forward.

I really want to be a unit tester, I really do. Unfortunately it’s one of those things I can’t seem to get going. I start and end up falling short before I get over the initial setup hurdle. Or I get a couple of tests working, but then as I have a hard time trying [...]

Just a quick follow up to my last post on adding the ability to add some tools to help serialize SqlAlchemy instances. I needed to do the reverse. I want to take the POST’d values from a form submission and tack them onto one of my models. So I now also add a fromdict() method [...]

I’m not a month into my new job. I’ve started working for a market research company here locally. Definitely new since I don’t know I’ve ever found myself really reading or talking about ‘market research’ before. In a way it’s a lot like my last job in advertising. You get in and there’s a whole [...]
