I recently reread “Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies” by Jim Collins and Jerry I. Porras. While I read it in the context of my day job, it was hard not to try to apply it elsewhere in my life. Heck, the authors specifically call this out. What follows is my opinion for the future of the Django community as a whole. I certainly don’t speak for the thousands of people involved. My hope is that this will motivate others to contemplate and share. I’d love to see how ever…

In this episode, I did another Exercism problem in Python that focused on Python classes. After the exercise, I deployed my model change from last stream and discussed deployment strategy. Then we worked on some of the display pieces for the new feature. Once the feature was added, I discussed performance testing and showed some performance problems that the new feature created that I then fixed. We ended the stream with some Neovim configuration to correct some LSP formatting problems.

As well as Chaim, Will has just come off of three years as DSF Treasurer, and I'm wrapping up tomorrow after five years as a Django Fellow.

The week that was 2023 WK12 Next week is my last week as a Django Fellow. I’m looking forward to a break now. I’m looking forward to turning off the notifications. As I keep telling folks, I’m not leaving Django — far from it! — and I’ll be available to be cc-ed or @mentioned as relevant, but for the last five years I’ve seen pretty much every comment, every action, every commit that’s gone on on django/django: I need to turn that down. Eyeballing the calendar, I think I’ll see how I feel af…
