Bash scripting is very easy to setup. So we end up using it all the time for simple procedural script. Sometimes is it useful to have idempotent script, like Ansible and Saltstack teach use, this script should only do an action if needed. Some tima ago, I have the need to convert a bunch of …

When I was young I was able to play with my Vic20/Commodore64. I learned to love programming with these small 8-bit *real* computers. I was between 11 and 12 years old, and just learning basic English, with only a data-casette to store my stuff. Now my son is 9 years old, and I was unable …
Bash scripting has evolved a lot in the last ten years. I get used to relay on bash for all normal “data domination” tasks (like file system refactorings, database extraction and reporting and so on) and switching to python/ruby/perl when the complexity gets bigger. I didn’t imagine bash is even more powerful :) This article …
How I Structure My Flask Applications Flask has been my preferred web framework as of late. I think it has a great core feature set and Armin, the main author, has done well to keep its API minimal and easy to digest even for developers that are relatively new to Python. However, given that it …
E’ notizia fresca di stampa il rilascio di Tcl 8.6, che introduce parecchie novità a dispetto del fatto che sia una “minor” release. In particolatre Tcl 8.6 introduce un motore “stackless”, integra nel linguaggio le estensioni OOP, ed aggiunge le coroutine. Parliamo quindi diffusamente di Tcl, un linuaggio che ho sempre trascurato perché mi sembrava …
Preludio L’ultima volta che ho provato Ruby è stato nell’aprile del 2005. Avevo sviluppato un paio di progetti di test in RubyOnRails, che allora era già produttivo. Ruby era affascinante, ma la libreria base mi sembrava ancora in stato embrionale e lo abbandonai. RubyOnRails non mi è mai sembrato avesse un vantaggio competitivo rispetto a …
I like a lot of programming languages. I do not love them with the same intensity. I do not love Lisp for its ((syntax))), but Lisp rocks for its purity: in a tiny bag of concept, you get a lot of stuff. This article, (How to Write a (Lisp) Interpreter (in Python)) show you how it …
This is the second article on functional programming. In the first one we talked about scala and the type inference system it brings in the Java Way of Life. I played a bit with python functional howto, building a small game. Before starting I surfing for a bit of libraries and documentation.
In the past week I learned Flask, a very young and promising python framework. I have already learned Django, Cherrypy, Web2Py and TurboGears. Anyway, if you are planning a medium sized project, I like to suggest you Flask, because of these feature:

Python 3 is here, and we are all friends. Anyway, using it needs a bit of macumba-powers. Let’s acquire this power together…
Inspired by this excellent web post “Ruby or Python? Well, it depends…”, I agree with it at 100%: Ruby or Python? This is the Question! Well it might not be the Question, but it’s a common question for many developers looking to break free from the statically typed language they know and learn a dynamic …
L’integrazione tra .NET e SQL Server è data per scontata: in questo articolo esploreremo invece come accedere a SQL Server da Python. Uno dei vantaggi di python è che è un linguaggio molto facile da imparare, con un notevole numero di librerie e un’ottima integrazione multi piattaforma. Oltre a ciò python offre un sistema di …
API KEYs are sexy: if you have a web based business (like Google, Twitter, Facebook or WordPress’Automattic) you should have a way to generate an API Key for web service integration. Like Session keys, API keys should be sufficiently unpredictable to be psuedo-random. To be unpredictable, no user variables (or timestamps) are encoded into the key. …
