THIS IS OBVIOUSLY THE CORRECT WAY. 2024-12-15T05:04:31Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs08dp9hmvvesyjpljjlww4vr6ez3aukgk93r2kjf7zsu0u33z9dpszyr5f2399s08wztn7d7kfdnu35a2u3f8lyf0wfq5xhx0cg9pzqxe4yjv73hv I must be missing something obvious. Is there a nice way to do threads in one go with Mastodon?<br/><br/>There isn&#39;t an obvious UI element see in Ivory, nor the official Mastodon client, and yet I see people like [@molly0xfff](<a href="https://hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff">https://hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff</a> ) doing absolutely epic long ones.<br/><br/>I think this is because very post has to be a reply to the previous one, so there&#39;s no ID to link to, but surely this has been solved already, right?<br/><br/>If there&#39;s a good published how to, I’d really welcome a link to it.<br/><br/>👍 ? 2024-12-11T19:34:09Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsryerjltr47ezndalsgusgwmf5l9x2dfl38dkhvtyazxldm7ntz0szyr5f2399s08wztn7d7kfdnu35a2u3f8lyf0wfq5xhx0cg9pzqxe4y6gra0h Dear fellow #django and #python nerds,<br/><br/>Somewhat related to that my earlier toot about that PR being merged into uv, I&#39;m looking for examples of django projects that are packaged up as &#34;proper” Python packages, to learn from.<br/><br/>If you know of any popular ones, would you share a link, or add one to this forum post?<br/><br/><a href="https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/looking-for-examples-of-oss-django-projects-as-pypi-packages/36224/2">https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/looking-for-examples-of-oss-django-projects-as-pypi-packages/36224/2</a> 2024-11-08T13:32:35Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2vufx4g9pkxfzqj0dyx9gx6ksyx3ymxtpymvg0z983ewky54u6pszyr5f2399s08wztn7d7kfdnu35a2u3f8lyf0wfq5xhx0cg9pzqxe4y2aphfa Aww yiss! Got my PR merged into #uv&#39;s docs for their neat support of running commands from a #python package hosted directly on github.<br/><br/>This is really nice for trying out CLI commands stuff before they&#39;re published to PyPi proper:<br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/8841#pullrequestreview-2422047768">https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/8841#pullrequestreview-2422047768</a><br/><br/>The examples in the screenshot show how to do one-off runs of the “httpie” command from a git branch, tag and git commit.<br/><br/>Give it a go! It was a pretty neat discovery for me, so I figured it might be for others too 👍<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/446/698/943/763/046/original/e664352cfa477a6a.png"> <br/> 2024-11-08T09:47:32Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdvp3ae2m0ydd00srctg2cc2te8yf3dm95av9qh2rz49047gnx82qzyr5f2399s08wztn7d7kfdnu35a2u3f8lyf0wfq5xhx0cg9pzqxe4ymf5223 Oh neat.
