One of those days where I spend 12 plus hours on a problem and I wasn’t able to solve it. This will irk me all night, it might keep me up and probably will hunt me until it’s solved. I feel like crap, but I also reached out for help.

I’m still in the beginning of my #pythonprogrammming journey due to my $dayjob, but here is something I’m learning about. I love dicts, but dataclasses are recommended.

I’m barely at the DSA portion of my Python journey.

There's one thing I've been REALLY enjoying using uv for: writing standalone #Python scripts that require third-party dependencies.

I stick this in the top of the file and it just works! 👇

#‍!/usr/bin/env -S uv run --quiet --script
# /// script
# dependencies = [
# "openai==0.27.2",
# ]
# ///
Lazy self-installing Python scripts with uv
I frequently find myself writing my own short command-line scripts in Python that help me with day-to-day tasks. It’s so easy to throw together …

Working in Python daily at work while scoring a 96% in my CompSci class in you guessed it, Python.

I’m able to actually implement what I learn in class in the real-world almost in real-time.

Feeling pretty good right now

Huge for the SnapAttack team. Such a good product, they know what the hell they are doing, that’s for sure and can tell from their product.

Congrats SnapAttack team

I might of found my next “book” over my winter break, “Data Structures and Information Retrieval in Python” by Allen Downey (in parallel to hands-on projects ofc). Think will tackle this after Python Jumpstart since I’m a completionist. Before I completed “Starting out with Python” and after I think

What's your go-to book recommendation for someone learning #Python?
Good idea. Was considering a project based approach. Thanks, Trey!

With that said, any book recommendations (I prefer physical books) as a second step? I do eventually want to knock out the Fluent Python book, but wanted a better base before hand.
