Tweet Lake: Commandline Interface to Twitter Streaming API written in Python
Show HN: TweetLake: Command-Line Interface to Twitter Streaming Data
Ask HN: Would you use a service that embeds famous quotation on your website?
I was re-designing my website and needed to embed quotations on my website. I wanted the quotations to change dynamically. I didn't want myself to write a specific module in my website as I wanted it to be completely static. I tried to find if such a service exists but could not. So I went ahead and wrote the service myself.User can embed a script tag in their website and the that script will...

How do you tackle such problems?
Ask HN: What are the biggest API development issues that you face?
Some issues that I face are : 1. Deciding on a common API structure amongst teams. 2. Keeping up to date with the changing API structures. 3. Suggesting modifications to an existing API. 4. Waiting for backend developers to finish APIs before getting started. 5. Notifying co-workers of deprecations/breaking changes. If yes then How do you tackle these issues in your current work?
Re:From Kafka to ZeroMQ for real-time log aggregation

It will be helpful if Kafka can come up with a pluggable system for storing configurations instead of Zookeeper. In that case problems such as the one you faced could be solved.

Got it now! But why was there a need of message decorator? The same task could have been achieved using the Channel Class.

This is really helpful. I might even use this in my next product.
One question though, I don't see a 'type' field in Notification class. Won't it be helpful if notification type can be saved to identify if the notification was an email notification or push notification and so on?
Re:Show HN: NotCRUD – Best of India's software thinking
on Saturday September 05, 2015 @02:03PM (#10175509)
Indian software industry has changed drastically in past 5 years. People are building good software products in India specially people just coming out of colleges. But the biggest problem that I have seen is that people generally don't get good beta testers who are interested in improving the product. And it's not just about beta testers, users of an enterprise saas are also limited.
In such a scenario there is a disconnect between the creator and users. Only if NotCrud can get both these communities together, I think it can gain much attention. And not just attention it will be able to create a credible platform, just like HN and not HackerStreet, which will be used by both Users and Creators. Because showing off is not enough. In the end you want to improve your product.
Btw notCrud is a very good initiative. I am glad you are taking it.

Re:Beyond PEP 8 – Best practices for beautiful intelligible code [video]

I like the indentation part of PEP 8. Especially the ways to organise arguments while defining functions. Having a common way of writing those is really helpful when reading the code. https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#indentation

This is really incredible list. Very useful when in need. Especially the switches that come in very handy.
