New year
So instead of making the usual resolutions I’ve decided to just try and work with python as my sole non-work language. It’s something I’ve been wanting to become as comfortable with as I am with Delphi but have not yet gotten past the “keep the reference book open while coding” stage. Normally when I’m learning a new language I have a small task or app that needs writing and that affords me a great opportunity to jump in feet first and learn the language. This time I do not have a handy app (well not one that is doable in my spare time) so I’ve decided to try and reproduce what pyBlosxom does but make it work offline and generate static pages that are rsync’d to the server. That model fits my current hosting setup much better than dynamic cgi generated pages currently used. I’ll also try and keep tabs on what I’ve done/learned/goofed here in the small chance that someone: a) actually reads this, b) is learning python also and c) gives a hoot what I’m babbling about. stay tuned
