Switching Pip to Uv in a Dockerized Flask / Django App

Switching pip to uv in a Dockerized Flask / Django App I noticed about a 10x speed up across a number of projects, we'll avoid using a venv and run things as a non-root user too. Prefer video? Here is it on YouTube. I was surprised at how painless it was to switch things over. You can see the git diffs to make the change for both of my example Flask and Django projects. In this post we’ll go into more detail about these changes and how to use a few uv commands. Let’s start with defining our

Peak Design's new tripods take aim at the professional set

Peak Design is building on the success of its innovative Travel Tripod. The photography accessory maker is launching a new Pro Tripod on Kickstarter. The latest model comes in three flavors: Pro Lite, Pro and Pro Tall. As you might expect, their prices dwarf that of the (already expensive) Travel Tripod. The Pro Tripod is scaled up for greater stiffness and maximum height. It has stronger legs, an all-CNC-machined hub and a flanged center column. This results in double the weight capacity of the

Using `make` to compile C programs

I have never been a C programmer but every so often I need to compile a C/C++ program from source. This has been kind of a struggle for me: for a long time, my approach was basically “install the dependencies, run make , if it doesn’t work, either try to find a binary someone has compiled or give up”. “Hope someone else has compiled it” worked pretty well when I was running Linux but since I’ve been using a Mac for the last couple of years I’ve been running into more situations where I have to

India’s ‘Human Calculator Kid’ Shatters 6 World Records in a Single Day

Remember when your teachers used to say that mental math is important because you can’t walk around with a calculator everywhere you go? Never minding the fact that we now do, actually, take a calculator everywhere we go (hello, smartphones), a teenager from India has taken it a step further: He has essentially become a human calculator. Fourteen-year-old Aaryan Shukla cruised through six mental math calculation world records in a single day, according to a Guinness World Records statement publ

I tried the new PS3 emulator on Android and it technically works, but it has a long way to go

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority The era of PS3 emulation on Android is here! To some degree, at least. Android emulation geeks are abuzz with excitement over aPS3e, the first native PS3 emulator for Android phones. Sure, most of the code appears to be cobbled together from open-source PS3 emulation projects like RPCS3, Vita3K, and Termux (probably breaking their licenses), but the fact that it’s working at all is a big step forward. The app itself has now been removed from GitHub due to th
