The document discusses the Python principle "There should be one--and preferably only one--obvious way to do it" from PEP 20. It questions how far this principle extends in different domains like web frameworks, desktop GUIs, and image processing libraries. While the core language aims for a single obvious way, larger problem spaces may have valid tradeoffs requiring multiple approaches or libraries.

ATO 2014 - So You Think You Know 'Go'? The Go Programming LanguageJohn Potocny
What’s so special about Go? Why do people swear they’ll never develop in any other language again? You’ve probably heard a lot of the stock answers: concurrency, lightweight syntax, speed, blah, blah. What do these things _mean_ to you as an individual developer, to your code and work output, and to your team and company?
Much of Go’s real power is hidden in plain sight, overlooked and unappreciated because it’s too simple to appear significant. I know because I have written a variety of Go code for many different domains, from stats to long-running daemons to API servers and clients. Long after I thought I was good with Go, I continued to experience a-ha moments that made me realize I’m still learning a lot of it. That process continues today.
I am not the world’s best programmer in any language, but I’m pretty self-aware, and if you’re anything like me, sharing my experience with you can hopefully help you shortcut the process of ignoring Go’s true power. I also hope that you’ll gain perspective about common complaints, and perhaps understand how serious those things would be for you after using Go for a while.
Go, Golang, Golnguage, what is go language, what is go, History of go, Founders of Go, Why Go is invented ?, Why Go?, Who are using go today?, What will you see in Go?, What will you not see in Go?, Structure of Go Programs, Features of Go, Drawbacks of Go
In the Python community we are taught from the outset of learning the language that the Zen of Python serves as a guide for how we should construct our codebases and projects. Rather than go into the zen-like meanings of each statement, this talk will explore how individual koans are implemented via detailed displays of sophisticated code examples.

Prototyping Accessibility - WordCamp Europe 2018Adrian Roselli
Learn some fundamentals of accessibility and how it can benefit you (whether future you from aging or you after something else limits your abilities). We’ll review differing abilities, generate (minimal) user stories and personas, discuss best practices for design and development, prototype some ideas (on paper), and discuss where to get help. This isn’t intended to be a deep dive into technologies, but more of an overall primer for those who aren’t sure where to start with accessibility nor how it helps them.
Talk from 4Developers '12 and PHP Barcelona '11
It’s fun to architect your application to handle millions of pageviews, but in reality that’s time where you could be adding features. We’ll examine some practical solutions for designing your platform to deal with increasing traffic and how to add those features on an incremental basis. This will take us through options for scaling the code and additional methods for scaling the infrastructure.
An advanced forms presentation given with Miguel Araujo (marajop) at DjangoCon 2011. The transcript and slides is aimed at getting into Django Core, and Jacob Kaplan-Moss has stated this is his plan.
Admitting my flaws and turning them into virtues! This is a full length talk given it at DjangoCon US 2011, PyCon Australia 2011, and LA Django. The earliest version was a lightning talk given at the 2011 Hollywood hackathon.
Just to be clear, all of these things suck. Please DO NOT use these techniques! It was a joke, and if you attempt any of these things you are making a big mistake.
The slides printed for attendees of the Pycon 2010 Long Pinax Tutorial. James Tauber was the co-author and deserves tons of credit for his work. So does Brian Rosner and the rest of the Pinax team.
Why Django is created and maintained by myself, James Tauber, and others. Its purpose is to help individuals sell Django as a working platform. It is a work in progress, and will be updated periodically.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

The bigger the problem space the more valid trade-offs
there are, so more choices start to make sense.
11. Is Zope the obvious way?
• Some people think so
• Other people do not
• Django, Pyramid, Twisted, Flask, et al
• Solved problems unsuited to Zope
• Attracted a new breed of developer
• Django’s culture of documentation
