When you lock the laboratory door, you always lock out more than you lock in. --John Wheeler

I had an interesting work week as I spent two days in Amsterdam - fancy. And I made significant progress on implementing responsive images in django-cast. Maybe I should use a web component for this image gallery stuff? Or just plain htmx? Maybe both to figure out which is easier to use? We'll see 🙃.

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. --Carl Jung

Normal work week. Didn't have much time for open source, but had a closer look into this whole responsive image topic / issues. And I have some ideas on how to handle them, but nothing is done, yet. All my Read the Docs integrations now use a secret for their webhook calls, which is probably good. And I've had some trouble with flit when it's installed via pipx, because it now installs local packages in the flit-pipx virtualenv when I run flit install -s whereas before it installed them into the projects virtualenv. Or maybe something in my fish shell broke? Dunno.

I’m really into writing short fiction, mainly to-do lists. --Emma Willmann

Normal work week. Started looking into this whole responsive images topic again. I'm still surprised at how complicated it is. After thinking about it for a while, I'm still not sure if the new responsive image features in Wagtail 5.2 are enough for my use case. Maybe next week 🤷.

The B in Benoit B. Mandelbrot stands for Benoit B. Mandelbrot. Steve Lord

Home Improvement almost done 😅. Short work week, but didn't get much done on my own projects due to a cold and other distractions. Another round of fixing kptncook - thanks to ca-dmin for pointing out the issue. There were also some minor issues with the Python podcast page, thanks to neingeist for reporting them. And the new data science tutorial repository that's currently under construction got its first PR 😎, thanks David.
