The number of posts about Django supposedly on a specific topic but spending 80% of their length building a whole dang app like it’s the introductory essay for a recipe.

Breaking out Jupyter for this one because sometimes you need more than a REPL, less than the full app, and org mode doesn’t make sense because you’re not writing a blog post.

@avolkov Usually same for me, though Django’s overwhelming docs are kind of a weak point for finding the one thing I need to know at any given time.

@requiem @avolkov Django’s a fine choice. Flask is easier to get started in, but you end up building or installing a lot of stuff that comes for free with Django.

Just different angles is all.

Slowly but surely learning how to do full text search of a Postgres db across multiple columns in Django.

Good stuff.

No way in hell am I committing any of this tonight. Needs the light of day and caffeine clarity first.
