Colleague: "Python is slow..too much slow."

Then I look at the code:

Eight nested for loops, inside two of them, two function calls and three list comprehension. That function has 2 nested loops and two "objects.all()" Django method, plus a list comprehension too..

Yep, Python is slow.

Me: So we've used Bootstrap for front-end and Django for ...
Teacher: Bootstrap is not a front-end framework.
Me: Uh..Okay. It's a CSS framework ? My bad.
Teacher: No, Python is for front-end.
Me: You mean templating ? Yeah! We've used Jinja templates.
Teacher: No. Use Python for front-end.

Spent hours finding the problem in code. Suddenly something happens! Code works! Now I'm spending hours finding what made it work.

F1: why you always use Go and Django for web applications.
F2: umm, because it's not JavaScript ?

Where do I even begin?

You all know the story. I was handed this lovely out of date Django site and told to set up a development environment. This, with ZERO python or Django experience.

It has one document. Which was wrong. There was no indication of what versions of anything was correct. There was a network of 8 sites strapped together. There were three revisions of every single template stuffed into one massive folder.

Oh and did I mention, the database, static files (including media) and Django site were all on the same server with debug still active and using the development settings file.

I think I died during the process somewhere.

Weekend weekend weekend. Yay!
After hard week at uni, took a day off and I am in bed since morning 😁
So I decided to find some kind of "dev social app" and got this. Not bad at all!

I am also fairly new at web development, using Python - at the moment Flask, later on Django so I am looking forward to meet some Flask/Django users here :)

And I just wanna add some wisdom here:)

Was working on a Django thing (server-side, so no dynamicness as far as I'm aware?) under a contractor at my company.

Needed a popup to display results of a subprocess, so I asked "We're going to need to AJAX it, right?" and give brief justification. Guy says no - pretty much "Django 10/10 supports this, let me Google". Proceeds to send me a link to a python package that enables using popups as a way of inputting values for form fields. I see as much on the couple of images for the package demo/introduction, so I'm kind of just like "It doesn't look like it's what we need though..." But the guy says to trust him, and implement it.

A day later, after scrutinizing the demo code, and trying to figure out how to implement the package, I go back to him and say "I really really really don't think this is going to work" and give the same justification from the day before. He opens the demo code himself and follows the long trail of confusing methods and stuff.

After an hour of my sitting there watching him read the code and disappearing for 10 minute periods a few times, he comes to the conclusion "Okay you need to understand the code to implement it. But go ahead and use AJAX"

This is abridged and a few other super annoying things have been cut out, but I TRUSTED HIM.

I. TRUSTED. HIM.

Agile is a family of development methodologies, and Electron is about as heavyweight as a desktop application can possibly get...

Just wow!

After getting a fund for my startup company as a PHP Developer, they changed the app to Django and fired all the Technology team. (O_o)

Django was the first web framework I learned. I didnt understood the praises for its documentation ... Until I started using Flask...

When a recruiter sends a highly personalized email for an exciting Job opportunity:

Dear Django,

My name is Theo by the way

I just realized how weird my searches would seem to an outsider

"python twisted vs falcon celery"

"python hug vs falcon"

I do like naming stuff as animals though. Maybe we should sort all of the python web servers by speed and name them accordingly.

Falcon is obviously the fastest, we can name twisted cheetah, and all the way at the end Django becomes elephant. Big and powerful but soooooooooo slow.

Just for fun and for experiencing the good old days before fancy text editors, I edited some CSS in notepad😂👌🏻

Started learning Django yesterday evening. Great experience till now.
Particularly, this feature blew my mind. What a great framework!

Having to deal with legacy code is fucking terrible. Worse yet when there is basically ZERO documentation and what little documentation there is, is wrong! Not just wrong, contradictory.

I have spent far too long trying to decipher what I need to make everything fucking work. Having to figure out if they used Gunicorn or UWSGI. Whether they used MySQL 5.6 or 5.7. Whether they wanted me bent over or crying on my knees.

-Writes a function that I'm going to schedule for django.
-works in development.
-adds it to production cron using django-crontab
-not working.
-spends 3 hours editing code, searching for similar problems and reading documentations but find nothing wrong and it's still not working.
-maybe it's django-crontab so I decide to just write a custom management command and call it through cron.
-still not working.
-calls function using what I'm telling cron to do.
-everything works.
-?????????
-adds logs to cron command (sorry for not making it earlier)
-mfw the code is not working because I imported 'patterns' in urls.py which has been deprecated since django 1.8

How do I convince my non-technical boss to let me write every new site we get in Django rather than WordPress?

I want to move away from the rotting mass of Frankenstein code that is WordPress.

Got one week to learn .net core from scratch and build a web app.

Just started an internship at a well put-together startup and ended up being in charge of project management as well. Having so much fun learning to be more independent and be a likeable manager. The tech stack in the tag.

Technically I'm still doing it.

Old django app serving 8 sites from an old 14.04 server in python 2.5 and django 1.4 needed to be upgraded and scalable.

So I've had to set up a new server, upgrade everything, transport across along with the database (also upgraded) and set up load balancing, an API for heavy functions and a CDN.

I'm still setting everything up for the newer sites but everything seems to be working. Keep getting stuck in performance bottlenecks and learning how to set up an API was interesting.

Also going to go through and sprinkle some async over some things to try to eek out more performance from every as much as I can.

So, my challenge for this year is to build a CMS, CRM and ERP system from scratch in my free time with Python and Django.

I need to get deep in with Python and I figured this is a good way to do it. I'm going to roll my own analytics and whatever else I possibly can. Hell, what I'd really like to do eventually is do away with Django and have it as a standalone product with zero dependencies. But one thing at a time.

Here's to a good future where I finally fucking commit to finishing a project!

I'm working on this super fun project in which we can combine the newest technologies, and some not so new but fun to use, we are doing it with docker, ASP.Net core, Angular2, and suddenly the system maintenance guy from the client sends us an email like:

- Just wondering which content management system are you going to use currently we are using WordPress, Orange and Django which ease a lot adding new features and sections

So the PM and me are frustrated and scared that we are going to be forced to use something awful just to please this guy.

Adventures in not knowing python: Episode 4!

After having finally extracted all the files I needed, figuring out where the hell they go and how they connect together I tried to plug it all into an AWS ec2 and get going. WRONG!

Every package was at least 3 years out of date. Most couldn't be downloaded directly with pip or wget (because the paths to them weren't available or were the wrong version) so I've had to find, download and scored every package to the instance. This, mind you, with no experience of Django and basically none of Python.

I've finally gotten them all in and installed and set up and checked their version against the live site. I have until tomorrow morning to get it all set up.

Wish me luck gentlemen!

Just found this awesome function in the old commits.

def clean_cache():
'''
This function cleans the stored cache in every update. Make sure to call it before every feature addition.

I just tried out Django, and it's great! Just thought I'd share.

I have been wanting to learn some web programming for awhile. I already know how to use basic HTML/CSS, but I want to be able to do more. I don't know anything about Ruby or Python, but I know that Rails or Django are both really good. Any advice on which to use? Also should I learn the language first or learn it while learning the framework?

Does anyone know of any apps/companies that are using .Net core in production?

I’ve started a project at work which consists of a webapi written in dotnet core, a react spa for the front end and xunit for testing.

I’m just curious as there are loss of sites about things written in Rails, or django, but almost nothing about dotnet core.

For my school project I made an Django app and after a while I implemented more and more functions, but now the code is unreadable and I began hating working on the project. So I rewrote it and added documentation and now I have a beautiful application with documentation and clean code!

Keeping myself from getting bored af at work. I am a backend engineer doing mostly frontend. And right now it ain't even the interesting stuff. I am merely passing photoshop files to static displays.

Kill me. Every once in a while I do maintenance on Java and PHP apps, but still...bored.....more Rails or Django please

So now I'm learning django and love it. Coming from making a web app in Java, django feels so easy.

What the fuck is Django doing other than trying to act like a Fortran developer rewriting Rails in a different language.

Once you get the hang of Django it's incredible how fast you can work with it. Suddenly the idea I had is becoming a reality 😄

Well, it's 5:53am. I have successfully stayed up all night making about 20% of an entire Django site for a client meeting this morning that I'm not going to.

I'm not sure how much he wants to be able to see but I think I'm done for now. I need sleep and coffee and food all at once preferably.

I keep nodding off and scaring myself...

django's best documentation = stack overflow

It's been a year since I first entered the world of development.

Let's see what I have accomplished so far:

Learned:
Java, J2EE, Node.js, Python, Django, Android, Angular, html/css, Rxjs, RxJava, Linux, MySQL, Mongodb, Docker, Heroku, AWS

Projects:
All unfinished.

Job:
Still working in IT security goddammit.

Fucking hell. Why am I so good at learning but shit at working?

Episode 3 of "I don't know Python"!

I've been tasked with making a development version of the site. At first we had no server access so I couldn't get the files for a week. I spent that time researching and practising starting a Django site. All of the documentation said the same things, pretty straight forward. When I eventually get to the files, the order isn't anything like the documentation, the file names are all wrong, there are 5 copies of every file spread around the server.

I am a total newbie at this but I feel like this has made it a million times harder. There is no .htaccess file anywhere, no requirements.txt, a MySQL and SQLite database backup. I don't even know where the sites root folder is.

And i mean with all the full stack services and all the shit we need to know by heart
node + redis + rails + django + scss + grunt + npm + postgres + mongodb + npm + angular + react + all that shit and moreeeee

And then make comments like "heh thats html it what i was doing when i was 12"

"Why do we need to use Django, it is so complicated, let's use Flask instead"

About two weeks ago, at my workplace, I learnt about Django deployment in Nginx server with Docker and Kubernetes on Google Cloud Console.

when u r hired as a django developer and told to learn php also in the first week. (gonna quit this job)

You know that moment, when you look for something on wikipedia, and after few hiperlinks you are reading about influence of penguins on Mars' day length or othen nonsense?

Just happened to me like 4th time when reading Django documentation. It is so well written and easy to understand, that I just click and click and want to go deeper, and then realise I have to read what I need, because I never ever got to it in the first place.

Gotta love the people who make such docs. I never could, and prbly will.

I was recently hired as a front end dev for a certain project. The owner of the project already had a backend guy who apparently was almost done. The guy was using a django to develop the website and just when we were about to integrate the front-end and backend he fucking bailed out! Saying he had another project. So I downloaded his code from github so that I could complete the backend myself but holy fucks it was so horrible... This guy didn't even know what he was doing... Just creating a million django apps which didn't do shit.. Oh and did I mention he used django 1.1... Such a shit head! But good for me... I'll be the one getting paid for the whole thing...

First day on the new job :) I am getting paid more than what I was doing in my other job while doing less and what I will be doing is mostly front end with small bits of php and cms :) fucking stocked man!! You telling me I get to play with react, angular or whatever I want? Omgisudisjzusjdhieeid

Any Django developers in the house?

Implementation of hackerrank in django.

A while ago, i decided to finally learn a bit about the web stack (especially django) and create my first web page. The image shows what it currently looks like.

I am actually very happy with the result. It will be my personal little Home automation software, with progressive apps etc. It runs on the pi plattform and can currently switch an IO to a Relais, which in turn switches on a light.

The applications of this are really endless, which is quite cool and leads me to do more stuff at my home with it. So dear devRant: Does anybody know of some nice hackable light bulbs/spots for my home that i can use? Or other cool hackable hardware that could be applied?

Django (& REST) tutorials in a nutshell 🙄

How I know I'm a nerd: I left a party to come home to work on an app. For my LARP group.

My first django website going into dev environment. (Management portal for company's license management)
I know there will be a river of bugs but, still I'm happy.
Also, this was the first assignment on my first job.

In Django code, looking at a class for caching REST calls. The cache is using Redis via Django's cache layer. In order to store different sets of parameters, each endpoint gets a "master" cache, that lists the other Redis keys, so they can be deleted when evicting the cache. Something isn't right, though. The cache has steadily increased in size and slowed down since 2014 even though many events clear the whole thing!

... And then it hit me. Nothing empties the list of cache keys. Nothing. So it has been growing endlessly since 2014. And everytime it grows, cache eviction gets a little more expensive, network traffic increases a little more, and cache evictions get a little slower.

Fixing this bug took things that were taking routinely an entire minute to complete and made them take a couple seconds.

I'm currently trying to get better at python and to learn django. And here I am, following a c++ course I found on safari books.
Really, sometimes I don't know why I do certain things...

What do I need to know before making a social network in Django?

Currently I know HTML, CSS, and Python3. I just want to get an idea of what my progress is and where I go from here. Sorry if this is a naive question, it's because I am naive :/

Am I the only one not enjoying Firebase realtime/cloud? Supposed to make it easier but eventually more complex than building rest in php/node js......

A recruiter contacted me regarding Django Framework and asked me to complete one assignment in REST Framework as a recruitment process.

Haven't heard from them since then.

When duel 24' monitors is not enough...
How does 3 work for you guys? Does your neck hurts moving around?

Note to self and others.

Enforced pep-8 in Django files will fuck up everything.

I've spent the past two days trying to track down errors because I set up automatic linting on VS Code with pep-8 and it enforced line length rules...

So many tags were cut in half and didn't function.

I'm a fucking idiot.

Somehow, a contractor left with all our unit tests six months ago. I just inherited this project. It's 200kloc of Django spaghetti, and I have no unit tests.

¿Why people hate PHP so much? I love it since it was my first web dev lang and I fell in love with it, however, I decided to move to another language since apparently It's going to die, not saying tomorrow but eventually. I'm not sure which language to pick (between Python (django, pyramid), Elixir (Phoenix) or Ruby (RoR). Any suggestions?
Also, what language you use and do you like PHP?

How many of us here are Python Django developer?

I don't like laptops, it just doesn't feel the same, too small, keyboard is meh I dunno... I like when the screen is in eye level but keyboard is lower.
Is it just me?
PC with 2/3 displays feels more natural to me.

It's sad because Django is a really great framework, but I can't understand how their serializers work.
I finally tricked to make my own using JsonResponse and alternatives methods, but I can't see why there is "serializers", "DjangoJSONEncoder", "JsonResponse", "json.dumps" and so on...

The documentation doesn't explain much about it :/

My first job was adding features to a django app and deploying to Heroku. Learnt a lot from that startup in my home town Kakinada.

Puts three months of work into this project; cronjob to ping 3 APIs at regular intervals, cleans, massive features extraction, dumps into PostgreSQL db. Got Django on top of that with a small neural net and interesting viz - absolutely gorgeous!

Can’t fuckin wait to showcase that.

Feedback: “is that the right blue? I think you have the old company logo! etc”

Finally got Stripe charges to work, then changed it to make subscriptions work in the Django app I was working on for Capstones. At least in theory. Works locally, but hasn’t been merged into our Production branch yet, so there could be something missing.

Still, super happy to have finally crossed it off my mental to-do list.

Hey!
As a back-end developer, i want to learn a framework, currently hesitating between Django(because i want to use python) and symphony, cause i already know php since 3 years, but never used any framework.

Do you have any suggestions to choose my way :)?

A question: what should i learn Nodejs or a Python Web framework (maybe django?)
I just want to learn :)

How do you guys manage to keep up with trends and learn everything?

I have so many things I want to know but there's just not enough time.

I have a brand new personal website nearly done to launch and a Django learning project I want to do, but I first need to finish this Grav-powered website I promised half a year ago, but the semesters and computer problems keep delaying that... 😢 #NoTimeForCode

!rant

Part of my job involves researching a shitload of documentation and tutorials in order to have an established and well tested point of refference for the rest of the team. As a Django guy, I have always been happy with the plethora of tutorials and what not made available for this amazing framework. Until recently I had absolutely no clue that MDN had their own Django tutorial and I must say....I am impressed! I seldom recommend something over the already great tutorial made available by the Django page itself, but this one by MDN really is worth considerind for people starting into the framework. One can even see the love that they have for the framework just by reading the tutorials.

Kudos to MDN for creating such a great resource!

Bout to learn me some Python and work with Django

What's your take on developing web with python (using Django for example)?

Coming from PHP, Symfony , etc, my first impressions are that it's clunky and very backend oriented.

Just got accepted to the Google Advanced Android developer nanodegree! Anyone else?

There are tons of jobs with c# in my area but I am a Java/python dev. Currently working on a small web application in Django. Should I take time to learn C# and the .net framework while doing my other project? If yes to learning C#, should I develop in windows or just use monoDevelop in the linux (ubuntu) os I am currently using?

when you get to use new versions of libraries by hacking around issues of apps on top of them.

Hi
how long does it take to learn a framework like django?
i'm working 4 hours a day.

Can't use Mock to stub this 3rd party API's connection class, so gotta revert to HTTPretty. Again. I don't like using libraries with 4-years-old issues and playing guessing games with response formats. Le sigh...

Can't tell what the % weights are of my ignorance vs actual broken lib that are contributing to the issue.

Error: BadStatusLine: '' (die in a 🔥)

After many days of trial and error,i finally found my preferred way of passing Django objects and variables to angularjs,now I can create killer apps with Django and angularjs.

So I finally got a client for my Django real estate platform.Meeting is tommorow.great thing is that the platform is built l just have to add requested features.wish me luck guys.i can probably score enough with this project to get me an lg ultrawide monitor.

Never in my life have i seen such a convoluted and complicated framework as Celery. Celery sucks donkey ass. That is all.

My work's website being unsupported with Django security patches. I bring this up with management and say we should upgrade ASAP. Apparently that wasn't possible because the sysadmins refused to upgrade their old version of RedHat so we can't use anything that doesn't support Python 2.6.... To this day it still runs on Django 1.6.

Well, atom won't open. SO, what's the next free editor I will learn to use, configure exactly right, and then need to abandon because it won't fucking open for no apparent reason?

Sure, I could become a certified Atom expert and learn exactly what is going on, but I HAVE FUCKING WORK THAT IS DUE WHAT THE FUCKING HELL

Wishing I could afford PyCharm, maybe I will just try the trial since EVERY editor I have ever used eventually becomes unusable at some point.

Spent three hours trying to use http mocking library to catch outgoing API calls only to discover cryptic exception "SSLError" has been around for 2.5 years and the "fix" is to monkey patch the library, but the fix, clearly written by a skilled dev, was never merged because of issues with another mock library. then there's a stream of people over the years popping in to the issue to say "this shit is still broken" ... I really need this library to work and my python-fu is not strong enough to overcome the task at hand.

Now I have to wade into using "mock" which is a land of sorcery all it's own. With a fuckall high learning curve that's been playing hacky sack with my brain...

I'll get this done somehow, right?

Back-end devs who know nothing beyond php and django 😭

which is better ruby on rails or python and django??

I really love Django, but I feel like Python is not object oriented enough. I'm thinking about Play (the Java web framework). Any other suggestions?

Django is so fucking great 😍

How in the FUCK does the first tutorial on the django website not FUCKING WORK, i've spent the past 5 fucking days trying to get anything at all to work, but no 404 Errors when i follow the guide WORD FOR WORD, trawled through looking for spelling errors but nothing. Fuck This

So, fellow Python devs more senior than I, could I take a moment of your time to ask a question?

How long roughly would it take to upgrade a Django site from Django 1.5.1 and python 2.7.3 to the latest versions? Assuming a fairly standard package library (Pillow, Treebeard, Django-CMS et al). And how much should be charged for it?

Because I've been given a month and a total of £2000 (along with other work in the mean time) to do it and I feel like it's a tad more involved than that.

Working on a new side project (that I'd like to turn into a business one day) and back in with Python and Django and I fucking love it.

I forgot how good it can be and how easy to use! Life is good again.

So guys... I’m pretty interested in web development and I have a bit of experience in php and I want to learn a python web framework. But I don’t know which framework to choose.
Flask or Django???
Any Suggestions???

Using regex to search in a django project. Am I in heaven?

This Capstone group blows. There’s five of us in total, and only two of us are actually doing work on this fucking Django application.

Seriously, how hard is it to use Git and GitHub? I assigned a single page to a group member.. and what does this fucker do? Sends me the .html file on Slack.

And all that page consisted of was TWO JUMBOTRONS. None of the functionality I asked for was there whatsoever.

These people are seniors in an engineering school. Fuckssake, get your shit together.

Good thing the grades are based on commit history.

Didn't imake it through my first telephone interview, lack of experience :((

Monday ill have a face to face with another company though ^^ wanna go jr py/django dev

Tip: if you are doing a semi complex or complex query in Django and you have doubts print the SQL statement and analyze it. i.e print(queryset.query)

Just reduced a query to 1 join instead of two by just passing a list of int's instead of a list of objects.

Django was the first then meteor js snap my heart, a few years of love and hate relationship I finally realized phoenix was the one all a long even though I kept thinking about meteor js from time to time <3

When I started developing my current Django project, I had decided to go full TDD, do it like a pro. But I stopped after some time, as I spent more time trying to make the website look right than trying to make the backend work, which always seems to work fine. Am I an idiot? I think I'm going to regret it...

A little help on Django

So I just started learning Python and Django Framework and I have one question...

Are the variables shared between visitors?
I mean, let's say I have a variable named "school"
school = "school1"
A visitor from X location enters and changes this variable to "school2". A new visitor enters the page from Y location and reads the variable 'school'. What is going to show on visitor Y? "school1" or "school2".

Took me too long to set up static files in Django... Sigh, it'll be worth it I hope.

Leadership has decided we do only Django from now on if we do tailored software. My supressed rage when I just brought in tons of cash with not-Django tailored software.

How many big profitable companies got that big doing just one thing?

After a whole day struggling with routes to a Django-app I think I route myself to bed... *Mumbles "route me here route me there"*

MVP MVVM RxJava, y u so complex? You supposed to make everything simple!

How far is too far, driving 90min every direction to work counts as normal? (actually driving)

Just learnt Vue js. Now I need to learn a backend framework. Django or Node js? Which one should I learn?

I must have typed "django-admon" about 40 times and every time it takes me a few seconds to realise why it's wrong.

I am trying to learn Django. I worked with flask before and I am pretty good with flask. Now moving to Django seems overwhelming. Can anyone suggest a good place where I can understand django coming from flask's point of view ?

Off late I've been having a lot of debate with my friend about using Flask over Django for prototyping some feature. I side with Flask, since the development time is much lesser than Django and doesn't need to follow a lot of rules.

Issue here is, I prefer flask and he prefers Django.

Need opinion on this sort of problem, where a prototype for a feature in a product has to be built. It maybe integrated into the end product, which is in Django, or may not be.

I have to develop a simple Rest API in python. Any suggestions how to make it possible. I was thinking in traditional direction to setup Django. However, I think there must be a simple way to do this.
thanks.

I was struggling to figure out why my Django template render wasn't working.was looking at code for hours.
Until I found that ,at the end of my render there was a comma making it a tuple.thats why it didn't damn work.

Started learning django..
Backend! here I come..

I was trying to learn HTML CSS so that I could become a fullstack developper yet felt so bored doing so I didn't like them at all, did anyone else go through this why learning them also? Think I'll stick to django.

So I made a rant about an hour or so ago about Django Rest Framework....this rant is about my own stupidity...Why didn't I just FULLY watch tutorial videos? The same videos I quickly blasted through like Haribo Sugar Free Gummy Bears blasts through your intestines are the same videos that are providing the answers I needed.

Just because I know Laravel, Django, Angular2 and React two companies are offering me double the salary I am getting now. But I love my current work place and I might get the amount here too but maybe after six or seven months. I love it because there are better developers here than me and I am learning a lot. Is my decision to stay ok? What would have you done?(btw I am staying anyway)

So i was considering to start learning laravel but after all the hate php gets, i'd like to ask for your opinions guys.
I recently started working on django for a college project and that made want to learn new stuff, so i'm hesitating between JS (plain Javascript, jquery, node, angular...), laravel, ruby on rails or anything that could help me both on frontend or backend.
Any opinion is welcome and most appreciated

Hopefully at work we have successfully migrated from a combination of MySQL and Mongo to only Postgres. Also we finally split up our monolith into medium sized services, so we can actually do something interesting and update our dependencies.
And port one of the services from Java Struts to Django..
..but that is only if developers were to set the plan...if sales/management: new feature here! new feature there! sell sell sell! No time for maintenance!

My friend works for a subsidery of an event organization company.. the sole purpose of the subsidery is to develop/maintene and upgrade their products. The just Started redesigning frontend of the website for the 4th time in last 16 months, because their boss changes their mind every 5minutes.

Continuing my last random post. (Please don't bother to take a look at it.)
But, hey you. Yes you, get yourself one beer/whisky and cheers!!
Why? Because my first django project ran successfully in staging environment!! Ok, There were few little bugs. But I fixed most of them.
I don't drink. So please go and enjoy on behalf of me.
And don't drink too much. Keep one bottle for production deployment.
P.S. This is just a beginning of the new journey! Still, lot to learn and experience.

When I run tests, I like to enable the debug logging. All the SQL queries and template tracing just flies by. Freaks the others out.

After having struggled with trying to set up a server for my static files, I finally gave in and signed up for AWS S3. Why did I wait so long?

I love how there are junior positions that request a MS.C in CS....

You should learn Django instead of go, and MySQL instead of mongo

Stumbled to this page while reading Django URL dispatchers...

Spending hours trying to make my Django site to work, only to realize that the local database has fewer items than the server database and that's causing the issue...

Hi folks,
I wanna start a project on Django and Python so that I can learn more developing things. Can anyone suggest an awesome project for me so that I can learn while doing things ?
Thanks !

So I'm a fullstack Python Dev & I wanted to learn Django Rest Framework so I can ease into making PWA. I figured let me learn it as I build out an MVP for a web app I'm creating...WRONG! This shit is mega annoying! It's taken much much more time than i'd like just to set up User sign up and sign in using a form based on the serializers. I started this project Friday....I still have no forms 😭😭...If i just had used Regular Django Models/Forms, an Ajax call here and there i wouldve been done!! What makes it worse is I feel I'm legit the only person having these issues...sheesh

While learning a new platform online, adding several links to the bookmarks, oh that's nice I'll add that too, hey that could be helpful later 'click'.
Done learning after 2 months, pressing on the relevant bookmarks folder..... "Open all (289)?" damnit need another few weeks to clear it up and filter, ending with even more bookmarks....

When I thought that JavaScript was everything because of node modules, frameworks and such until I learnt Python and Django.

Although, I have been wrong before.

spent close to 3 hrs trying to figure out why my server wasn't serving my webpage (consisting of both static files and HTML) only to find out I deleted the content in the base file that all other files were supposed to extend from. Ah! a month's work! Thank God for version control. How did people survive before? 🤔

just did quick look on post about some guy comparing Laravel vs Rails vs Django. His conclusion was Django is the toughest one to learn o_0. Funny thing is i found out it's bit off.

Well Django, I think I've fucking HAD IT WITH YOUR STUPID FUCKING SHIT ALREADY.
./manage.py shell
In [1]: from inventory.models import ProductLine

In [2]: ProductLine
Out[2]: inventory.models.ProductLine

In [3]: ProductLine.objects
Out[3]: <django.db.models.manager.Manager at 0x7f03e23017b8>

SO WHY IN THE FUCKING FUCK DO I GET

"""
, in ProductLineViewSet
queryset = ProductLine.objects.all()
AttributeError: type object 'ProductLine' has no attribute 'objects'
"""

FUCK ME

I hope I just FORGET I am a programmer, wake up tomorrow free to go work at fucking McDonalds and die in mediocritity anyway. FIANLYL Get to catch up on fucking work and I have to diagnose this inane fuckign django model problem that I dont fucking see anywhere on google, SO, etc right now

Best I can find are all like "You've probably defined something else called <model class name> in that file." But Grep and I sure as fucking tits can't find it!!!!!

Time to fucking make an exact copy of everything but change it to ProductLine2 and watch it all work perfectly fucking hell am I really this stupid or am I going to eventually find a bug after hours of GETTING FUCKING NO WHERE OMN THE STRUPIDEST FUCKING SHUIT IVE EVER SEEN FUCK ME

Should I learn JS or Python?
Python is the better choice for ai as far as I know and I'm interested in learning Django. On the other hand Node.js is great for backend and servers.

What is the use of Java nowadays besides Android? I rarely see Desktop apps written in Java and backends are developed more efficientl with django, node.js ,etc... just think about it setting up spring boot and all the warnings and errors...

Just wasted 3 hours because i was manipulating the context dictionary in django of a different view that i was actually checking.

When you see there is no answer to whatever you search, move back and go for a walk.
This shit drove me nuts.

Now i need my brain to calm down.

Still wondering why my mom thinks i'm a clever guy.

We use celery at work, and one of the issues we face is that we use Django logging.
I'm not sure how it happened, however we only get 1 level of tracebacks from it now.

This has made debugging painstakingly difficult, since we have to manually traverse the code every time.

(we're in the process of moving to sentry, and we'll get our full logs back soon)

So many choices for backend I'm fucking confused. Yesterday, I tried Django and i found it little similar to RoR(in generating things, db migration things).
I'm currently working in NodeJS.
I even don't know should I rant or cry.
And of course frontend is another thing same like this.....
And I'm not much experienced to differentiate them and know which is better and where it will fit.
Can anyone tell me in simple way which framework fits where?

Can you suggest Any good e-commerce project online which I can fork? My friend is requesting me to build such website for him. He is ready to pay but I don't have much time. I tried to say no but he is saying that he is flexible about time. So I am looking for some prebuilt project which I can fork. I am good at express react and django.

I always feared databases, but Django makes it so comprehensible. I only have to define relationships, and everything else is taken care of under the hood. Love it!

Stop shoving Django admin down everyones throat as a client facing solution every time we need any admin functionality.

It’s great at first but then you have to dick around customising it when you could build the same thing with any modern frontend framework and REST API easily.

Not to mention Django admin couples the models to the view it provides you (inlining particular models given their relationships)

Django vs laravel for restful api ? Or any other framework ?
With a lot of req per sec
I'm so comfortable with laravel but don't mind using Python

Tnx <3

I want to develop a django quiz app which will show questions to all online users at same time and allot a short time slot(1min) for answering questions.

How can i do that?
Any kind of help/link/hint is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Python (django) OR Ruby (rails) to learn first?

Not a js expert. I'm trying to learn a new js framework so I'm stuck between angular and react. I'm a Django dev, so I'll be mostly using this framework in my Django apps. Which one should I learn? I'm migrating from jquery so please don't be harsh at me 😅
