pmdarrow··on Hyundai Uni Wheel electric drive system could revolutionize EV design
It looks like the wheel is mounted on a hub, just like normal cars.
pmdarrow··on Eye Candy
One thing they're not great for though is shareability. With gifs, you can generally just drag & drop them between most apps and they'll behave as you expect. Not true with videos.

My company is using https://github.com/miyakogi/pyppeteer in production and it has worked great. I suggest checking it out.

pmdarrow··on Flask API – Browsable Web APIs for Flask
I can sort of comment on this since I've used Flask-RESTful and Django REST Framework where a lot of the Flask-API design is/will be borrowed from. I think the browsable API feature is great but it's not the killer feature for me. To me the killer feature is the well-designed serialization and validation architecture. In Flask-RESTful this seems half-baked - there is no notion of hyperlinked references or nested objects. At our company we ended up implementing our own serialization & validation layer which felt a lot like reinventing the wheel. My hope is that we can bring this same great architecture over from DRF to Flask-API.

We've been considering "porting" our app from Flask-RESTful to Django REST Framework because it is so well architected, tested, and has a large community around it. So I'm overjoyed to hear that you're bringing this awesomeness to the Flask world Tom!
