Michael #1: QuickMacHotKey This is a set of minimal Python bindings for the undocumented macOS framework APIs that even the most modern, sandboxing-friendly shortcut-binding frameworks use under the hood for actually binding global hotkeys. Thinking of updating my urlify menubar app. Brian #2: Things I’ve learned about building CLI tools in Python Simon Willison A cool Cookiecutter starter project, if you like Click. Conventions and consistency in commands, arguments, options, and flags. The importance of versioning. Your CLI is an API. Include examples in `--help` Include `--help` in documentation. Aside, Typer is also cool, and is built on Click. Michael #3: Warp Terminal (referral code) Really nice reimagining of the terminal Currently macOS only but will be Linux, then Windows New command section & output section mode Blocks can be navigated and searched as a single thing (even if it’s 1,000 lines of output) CTRL+R gives a nice history like McFly I’ve discussed before Completions into popular CLIs (i.e. git) Edit like an editor (even you VIM people ) Has AI built in too Free for individuals If you’re going to give it a try, use my referral I guess? Brian #4: Python 3.7 EOLed, but I hadn’t noticed EOL was June 27 I’m still supporting 3.7, as are most projects I work with. But I’m not sure when that will change. VS Code is deprecating 3.7 support Why I’m ok with supporting 3.7 for some projects dataclasses came in with 3.7 `from __ future__ import annotations` allows the use of union types with `X\|Y`. example I’ll probably drop 3.7 as my dependent projects drop it. Extras Brian: pytest-param-scope is an in progress hack to workaround this missing scope. Runs setup before any param test cases, and teardown after the last one. Stop defining people by what they’re not: on “non-code contributors” - Josh Simmons Michael: OpenAI has unveiled the Beta version of its Python SDK (via Mark Little) StackOverflow lays off 28% of its staff Weird follow up of their “what to do if you’re laid off” post from 6 months ago? Is AI eating into their traffic? ArsTechnica has thoughts too Joke: Define *hot* New Zoo exhibit
