Hi there :)

I got something cool to share with you, over the past few months i have been running around trying to find a way to make a dream come true

Im creating a online hub for developers in tech / Ai that care about technological innovation and having a positive impact by building and contributing on projects

This is hub will be a place to find like minded people to connect with and work on passion projects with.

Currently we are coding a platform so that everyone can find each other and get to know each other

After we got some initial users we will start with short builder programs where individuals and teams can compete in a online competition where the projects that stand out the most can earn some prize :)

Our goal is to make the world a better place by helping others to do the same

If you like our initiative, please sign up below !

https://tally.so/r/3N0zZN

And in some weeks, once we're ready we will send you a invite to join our platform :)

Share what you're working on in this thread. What's the end goal, what are design decisions you've made and how are things working out? Discussing trade-offs or other kinds of reflection are encouraged!

If you include code, we'll be more lenient with moderation in this thread: feel free to ask for help, reviews or other types of input that normally are not allowed.

What my project does:

Whenever I'm researching or studying anything, I tend to save a ton of content. It could be a cool article link, a fact someone mentioned in my chats or a blog post about it. But organizing all this content and then effectively researching or learning from it is a difficult task. That’s where SurfSense comes in. SurfSense acts like a personal brain for any content you consume, allowing you to easily revisit, organize, and effectively research and learn from your saved content.

Check it out at https://github.com/MODSetter/SurfSense

Why I am posting here:

Well my project have 3 things where extension and frontend is made in JS but core backend is made in python with LangChain and FastAPI.

If any good python devs could go through my backend and suggest some tips to improve it would be great.

And if u know any good resources about WebSockets implementation with FastAPI do mention in comments.

Target Audience:

Researchers, Students or Anyone who consume a lot of content

We’re excited to announce Maelstrom 0.12.0, a test runner for Python that can run tests locally or on a cluster. Our new UI features real-time information about running tests, output from the build, and a new progress bar.

Maelstrom is a suite of test runners, built on top of a general-purpose clustered job engine. Maelstrom packages your tests into micro-containers, then distributes them to be run on an arbitrarily large cluster of test-runners, or locally on your machine using a custom-built, super-fast container runtime.

Hey everyone! I am Dinones! I coded a Python program using object detection that lets my computer hunt for shiny Pokémon on my physical Nintendo Switch while I sleep. So far, I’ve automatically caught shiny Pokémon like Giratina, Dialga or Azelf, Rotom, Drifloon, all three starters, and more in Pokémon BDSP. Curious to see how it works? Check it out! The program is available for everyone! Obviously, for free; I'm just a student who likes to program this stuff in his free time :)

The games run on a Nintendo Switch (not emulated, a real one). The program gets the output images using a capture card, then, it process them to detect whether the pokemon is shiny or not (OpenCV). Finally, it emulates the joycons using bluetooth (NXBT) and control the Nintendo. Also works on a Raspberry Pi!

I don't make money with this, I just feel my project can be interesting for lot of people.

Well when I’m browsing the internet, I tend to save a ton of content—but remembering when and what you saved? Total brain freeze! ❄️ That’s where SurfSense comes in. SurfSense is like a Knowledge Graph 🧠 Brain 🧠 for anything you see on the World Wide Web. Now, you’ll never forget any browsing session. Easily capture your web browsing session and desired webpage content using an easy-to-use Chrome extension. Then, ask your personal knowledge base anything about your saved content., and voilà—instant recall! 🧑‍💻🌐

The whole backend is made in FastAPI & Langchain in Python.

and lmk what is your feedback/suggestions.

I have been coding for a long time in Python, but I recently started college to get my bachelor's. My teacher made these comments, and I am not sure how to improve. While I did not get a bad grade, he deducted points, and dont want to make the same mistake.

Cmmments from my teacher:

Your code is clear and easy to understand—great job!

• Consider adding more comments to explain complex parts of your code.
• The readability of your code is good, but could be improved with more spacing and indentation

Questions:

How can I add more indentations with Python, as it needs to be indented in a certain way?

What comments can I make about the code, specifically the "complex " parts, as this is a basic example and not complex?

My code: 
class BudgetCalculator:
    def __init__(self):
        self.monthly_income = 0
        self.fixed_expenses = 0
        self.variable_expenses = []

    def gather_user_data(self):
        try:
            self.monthly_income = float(input("Enter your monthly income: "))
            self.fixed_expenses = float(input("Enter your fixed monthly expenses (e.g., rent, utilities): "))
            
            while True:
                var_expense = input("Enter a variable expense (or type 'done' to finish): ")
                if var_expense.lower() == 'done':
                    break
                expense = float(var_expense)
                if expense < 0:
                    print("Expense cannot be negative, please re-enter.")
                else:
                    self.variable_expenses.append(expense)
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid input. Please enter numeric values.")

    def calculate_total_variable_expenses(self):
        return sum(self.variable_expenses)

    def calculate_remaining_budget(self):
        total_variable_expenses = self.calculate_total_variable_expenses()
        if self.fixed_expenses < 0 or total_variable_expenses < 0:
            raise ValueError("Expenses cannot be negative.")
        if self.monthly_income < (self.fixed_expenses + total_variable_expenses):
            raise ValueError("Expenses exceed income.")
        remaining_budget = self.monthly_income - (self.fixed_expenses + total_variable_expenses)
        return remaining_budget

    def display_result(self):
        try:
            remaining_budget = self.calculate_remaining_budget()
            print(f"Your remaining budget for the month is: ${remaining_budget:.2f}")
        except ValueError as e:
            print(e)

def main():
    budget_calculator = BudgetCalculator()
    budget_calculator.gather_user_data()
    budget_calculator.display_result()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

I have read about the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) and understand that it is a lock per interpreter in Python, which is historical. However, I still see thread packages in Python. Why are they there if the GIL exists? What's the point?

So, what is the verdict here?

Thanks

I have a Shelly blu door and window sensor connected through a Shelly plus 2 PM. I’m trying to find a way to get the status open/closed using python or home assistant.

I completed my first python project which allow people to download manga from terminal using manga dex API this was my project with API

https://github.com/I3WX/manga-downloader.git
