When I first started with #Python, understanding objects and classes felt like a challenge. 🐍 If you've ever felt the same, this Newbie Bite video by Russell is for you! He breaks down classes in Python to help you master OOP. 💡

New to #Python; do the newbies: codechalleng.es/bites/newbie Already know Python and want to dive deeper into OOP? Take our learning path and write more idiomatic code: codechalleng.es/bites/paths/oop

One of the best things I've done in my twenties: doing various interrail trips. No better way to become independent and learn about other cultures. The 'deliberate practice' learning new languages taught me valuable lessons I replicated to programming ever since:

Yesterday I posted about Folium to plot cities. Did you know you can also make heatmaps with it? I did this the other day looking at my fitness data. Here some examples of steps around conferences/work visits @ Cleveland, Chicago and Eindhoven (Netherlands):

In order to learn #python and #programming well, you have to build. But people often struggle what to build. To which I always say: "scratch your own itch". And it does not have to be big.

Drop the tutorials and start building, real understanding of software development happens when you build a (complex) app / project, working backwards from a real world problem. It's also more fun!

uv 0.4.0 is out now 🚢🚢🚢 It includes first-class support for Python projects that aren't intended to be built into Python _packages_, which is common for web applications, data science projects, etc.

uv 0.4.1 is out now 🚢🚢🚢 You can now export `uv.lock` to `requirements.txt`, if you need to fit it into some other workflow. The generated `requirements.txt` will work across platforms; it retains the resolved environment markers.

Learn a new language? Speak it and dare to make mistakes. If you want to become a better programmer, write more code. Not only that, challenge yourself to build bigger + real-world projects. Passive learning won't get you far, start building + go outside of your comport zone!
