Siecje··on Ask HN: Anyone looking for contributors for their open source projects
I have some open source Python projects that could use some help.

I have been working on a static site generator which uses Flask.

I have been learning trio (async Python library) by implementing beanstalkd.

Siecje··on YouTube addiction, one month sober
I wish I could disable shorts on Android.

I have a watch later playlist that I want to get through but I find myself scrolling on shorts.

Siecje··on Think Python, 3rd Edition
Use asyncio. Bind to a socket, set blocking False, then asyncio.run(on_new_connection(sock)).

Inside that coroutine get the loop and await loop.sock_accept(sock)

And then asyncio.create_task(on_connection_data(connection)).

The only gotcha is you need to keep a reference to that task so it doesn't get garbage collected.

Siecje··on How we crowdfunded $750k for a giant book about keyboard history
Why does the keyboard send caps lock? I assumed it would either send capital character or lowercase character.
Siecje··on How we crowdfunded $750k for a giant book about keyboard history
Being able to feel the state is best. It means when you hit caps lock you know if it is in the wrong state and can hit it again.

It saves you from typing a couple characters and then removing them, fixing the caps lock state and re-typing them.

Siecje··on How we crowdfunded $750k for a giant book about keyboard history
Does anyone make a keyboard where the caps lock button stays down so you know what state it's in?
Siecje··on Qt 6.6 and 6.7 Make QML Faster Than Ever: A New Benchmark and Analysis

It said white had the better position and then later in the same position it said black had the better position.
Siecje··on Sentry: From the Beginning
I've read comments from both threads. I still don't know why Sentry moved away from open source.

Why wasn't it sustainable?

Siecje··on Ask HN: 20% of LinkedIn's recent layoffs were managers
This makes sense.

What are some examples of things that a manager can do which will save time for an IC?

A mature team will hopefully have implemented efficient workflows.

Siecje··on Twitter has officially changed its logo to ‘X’
I agree and I wonder what plan Threads has to fix it.
Siecje··on Toyota has been developing a solid-state battery for EVs with a range of 745mi
Is it better to keep an EV at 80% or to leave it between 50% and 80% for weeks?

Instead of 80% I'd say optimal voltage but I don't know what that is, and the car doesn't show me the battery voltage.

Why isn't there a setting to charge to optimize battery longevity? Even if that means the battery is at 70% or 75% or whatever.

Often I get home with 60%. Should I wait until I get home with < 50% before charging? Or just keep it at 80%?

Siecje··on The note Reddit sent to moderators threatening them if they don’t reopen
I wish Discords were discoverable.

Why do I need so many members to show up when search for servers? That means I need to have a community somewhere else.

Siecje··on Reddit appears to be restoring edited/deleted comments
How would you feel if the comments were restored but not associated to your account?

That way the discussion is still there for people in the diture to follow but someone can't go through your comment history to learn about your political view or wealth or whatever people look for.
