Journal TTK Ciar's Journal: Developing DVM and Learning Python
My last journal entry is already "archived"
The only times I've successfully collaborated with others on open-source projects, I developed something with minimum functionality first, then invited others to extend it. I've served as project lead at work, where I could communicate much and easily with co-workers, but OSS projects don't allow for the same luxury.
In that light, I'm inclined to try to develop some minimalist working/useful DVM first, and then share the source code for collaboration.
On the Python front
These are discouraging, but I'm sticking with it because Perl is slowly falling out of favor. People are using Python now to do systemish things, which were once done in Perl. So if I want to improve my chances of getting a job working on the kinds of problems I consider interesting, it's in my best interest to learn Python. Also, several applications I'm interested in modifying (bittornado, ccpublisher, myfile, and others) are written in Python. I'm hoping that with practice it'll grow on me.
As an aside, please check out Nick's spiffy new online game, BrainChef! It's free and a lot of fun. When you create an account, choose zombie ("THEM" when it asks you to pick between "US" or "THEM"), they're more fun to play and it needs more zombie players
