inessential.com: One of My Mistakes

by karlcow

But I’ve long had a similar question about NetNewsWire. Back in 2002 and 2003, when NetNewsWire would read a feed, it would send the URL of NetNewsWire’s product page as the referer. That was wrong. (It’s also what other readers did, so I justified it as the then-current best practices.) It wasn’t a privacy violation — it wasn’t terribly wrong — but it was still wrong because it was misusing the referer. (The user-agent is where that info was supposed to go.)

Python Ecosystem - An Introduction » mirnazim.org

by karlcow & 2 others

This is not about teaching Python - the programming language. This tutorial will not magically transform you into a Python ninja. I am assuming that you already know the basics of Python. If you don't, then stop right now. Go read Zed Shaw's brilliant free book Learn Python The Hard Way first and then come back.

BACK TO THE FUTURE : Irina Werning - Photographer

by gregg & 4 others
I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today... A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

the node.js aesthetic :: The Universe of Discord

by karlcow

The "batteries included" approach may have struck a worthwhile tradeoff back when package managers were primitive and modules were global, but that advantage evaporates in the face of baked-in concurrent library versioning and sophisticated package management.

un exemple est l'état de certaines librairies python. Catastrophique.

Five Old Subway Maps Worthy Of Framing: Gothamist

by karlcow

New York City's subway system didn't always have a Massimo Vignelli-designed map (published by the MTA between 1974 and 1979), and the ones that came before it were surprisingly just as gorgeous (well, if you avoid the late '60s). You can revisit a massive collection of subway system maps right here—and click through for some of our favorites, dating back to the beginning, 1904. (h/t to Brooklyn Based, for Tweeting this 1955 map)

Codex » Info

by sbrothier
Codex is a weekly music podcast hosted by Jean Snow, recorded in Tokyo, Japan. A long, long time ago in a country far, far away (that would be Canada) he used to have a college radio show. He had two of them, actually, first when he was truly a university student — believe it or not, it was called The Jean Snow Show — and then 10 years ago when he was back in Canada for a year, he did another show on the same station (CKUM) which he decided to call Codex (for reasons that have long been forgotten). He’s long missed those days of hosting a weekly music show — in a proper studio — and although he can’t replicate that same environment, he’s recently started doing similar but on the net, in podcast form.
