* [Simplified logic](https://github.com/baseplate-admin/django-hstore-widget/blob/67e17e0da3e8e413bc23b36ac0f403a823687f52/src/components/django-hstore-widget/django-hstore-widget.tsx) compared to [django-admin-hstore-widget](https://github.com/PokaInc/django-admin-hstore-widget/blob/8a19511403f0dd5d64c350efbed96c01d1a6544e/django_admin_hstore_widget/templates/django_admin_hstore_widget.html)
* Uses emoji as fallback.
* No hard dependency on `jQuery` / `underscore`
* Reduced bundle size.
* [Automated publishing using github actions](https://github.com/baseplate-admin/django-hstore-widget/blob/67e17e0da3e8e413bc23b36ac0f403a823687f52/.github/workflows/CI.yml).
* Dropped support for old browsers.

Determined to start and deploy webapp before the end of the year

I am super brand new to web development and I know my current passion and determination and confidence is part of the Dunning-Kruger effect

I’m fully aware I know nothing, not even a strong foundation in python

However this week I have built the essential codes for the main product of the web app using colab and chatpgt

I’ll be reinstalling python on my machine (did it wrong the first time lol get to eager and didn’t click on the little box asking about Paths)

Hope it’s okay if I use this group to keep myself accountable and share my journey especially when I eventually realise how much I really don’t know and lose some of my confidence lol

Also the app is meant to be my financial freedom project so with some luck I really do believe I can create something into being that other people will find true value in

Wish me luck x

I'm making a periodic table on python.

I'm making a periodic table that has almost everything that a element can have. I made a Github repository, so check it out! Also, the "discussion" flair is because I know that the code is pretty bad, so if anybody has anything to add (both for the table and for the code ), please tell me!

When working with multiple threads working on one model object, is there something about related fields that saves the primary objects data?

I have some celery tasks that run at the same time working on one model object. I'd thought I had been very careful about using transactions.atomic and select_for_update and using update_fields...etc.

I've run into one scenario i cannot explain

`conversion_successful` calls `.delay` on two other tasks and then updated a field on the object, as such:

load_skips.delay(pk=pk)
send_notification.delay(pk=pk)

with transaction.atomic():
m= MyModel.objects.select_for_update().get(pk=pk)
m.system_notes['processing_finished'] = timezone.now().isoformat()
m.save()

However what keeps happening is that the `processing_finished` in `system_notes` is very hit an miss as to whether or not it ends up in `system_notes` at the end of the day.

I tested moving the call to the two other tasks AFTER commiting the `processing_finished` data and its 100% always there. So there's something going on in those other two tasks.

The thing is, the other two tasks are a notification task which only get()'s the model and never saves, while the second task is loading data into a related model like the following:

m = MyModel.objects.get(pk=pk)
m.skips.get_or_create(

Why pandas transpose keys from exel provides RangeIndex while only keys provides List

workbook = pd.read_excel('data.xlsx')

workbook.keys():

`\`\`\` Index(['Comment:' 'count'], dtype='object') \`\`\``

`RangeIndex(start=0, stop=128, step=1)`

Production server help?

This is for my work. I can’t go into it too much here. Currently I am using waitress server. I am getting acceptable performance but I need to improve it. I am using nginx and waitress. Nginx for serving static and acting as reverse proxy. I have done lots of research and alternative options but the problem comes down to is Windows. This is a hard set requirement that it needs to run on windows. I can’t use gunicorn because it doesn’t support windows. I read about CHERRYPY WSGI SERVER - not sure about performance, uWSGI - (but I read it is made for Unix system), I read about hypercorn (I know this is asynchronous server) but it said in documentation that is can be served as sync. I don’t know about the performance. I am not sure.
What are some alternatives web servers that I can use and runs on windows that will give better performance than waitress?
I am pretty new to this so I greatly appreciate for helping me guide to the right direction.

Environments Utils - Detect Your (quirky) Python Runtime Environment

Hey, r/Python!

What My Project Does:

Over the years, I’ve been working on a Python package called **Environments Utils** that helps detect characteristics of the environments where your Python noscript is running. It’s built to handle various edge cases and odd environments I’ve encountered. For example, it can determine if your noscript runs inside a Jupyter Notebook, on a SLURM cluster, or within Rosetta on macOS. The package also identifies system architecture, operating system, GPU availability, and even whether you have an internet connection - all with no additional dependencies!

Target Audience:

This package is designed for developers and data scientists who work in diverse environments, such as cloud platforms and high-performance computing clusters. I find it particularly useful when I need to adapt a pipeline depending on which system it is being installed on.

Production Use: You can use the package to adapt your noscript's behaviour based on the runtime environment (e.g., using different logging mechanisms in a SLURM cluster).
Development/Debugging: If you're writing code that needs to adapt to odd environments like Colab, TMUX, or hybrids like macOS Rosetta, this package can save you some headaches. I had several noscripts that only broke down in COLAB or Rosetta etc, and this made

wow redis cache is a game changer..

I made my ecommerce with django + RDS PostgresQL..

It was quite fast, it took about 120~150ms for fetching data..

However, I took 3s for the first page load. it felt a bit slow when I search my page on google or Instagram..

I set redis for caching.. and now 20ms for data fetching and when I go on my site, the page shows immidiately.. less than a sec, it is super fast.. what a game changer..

rendertemplate refuses to find my html file

hello! i am building a basic flask web app and cannot get render\template to correctly find my html file. i have scoured the web and tried many solutions, but it still says "template file 'index.html' not found". for reference my IDE is PyCharm. I have tried moving index.html in the exact same directory as the app, putting index.html inside a folder called "templates", and giving the Flask object a second input of "template_folder=[file path\]". None of these solutions work. My app.py is shown below (the if name==main part is below it with correct syntax, that just wasn't relevant here). Both app.py and the templates folder are in the same directory.

from flask import Flask, rendertemplate

app=Flask(name)
@app.route('/')
def index():
return rendertemplate("index.html")

Multiple Long Running task > 500 seconds stuck in STARTED state

I am building a celery (remote workers) + flask application(using send_task). The issue I am facing is that when I send multiple tasks to the celery worker, the tasks are executed (2 API calls are successful both return 200, one takes less than 60 seconds and the other takes greater than 400 seconds) but the task status is stuck in STARTED state. I have tried to increase the timeout for the API, added the soft_time_limit and time_limit, but whenever I add more task the task start they execute but the state is stuck. If I only send one task then it executes correctly and the status is also updated correctly. I am just not able to figure out the problem.

Planning a project and getting things “connected”

I think I know the basics of Django but when I comes to connecting the pieces of a project together. For someone with little to no experience, what are ways to learn?

Example. For my work I was thinking of building a “hotel/barracks rooms” management system. Kind of similar to a hotel. Issues; some rooms share a bathroom, some rooms have to be female only since they share a bathroom, if a female is assigned to the room block any male from being assigned. The majority of rooms are male BUT some male rooms will need to be converted if there’s more females than males during that period. I would need a check in and “check out date” we don’t know when they checkout as it depends on them getting in-processed into the installation.

For someone with experience this might seem easy, for someone learning planning a project is difficult. What are some ways to fix this?
