Python Rocks!

i try to use python as much as possible especially on win32 platforms. it is probably faster than java. every science (chem/physics), mathematics, and engineering student should learn this language their freshman year of college -- and use it! i am an experienced c/c++, ada embedded developer, but always look for ways i can use this language to solve other programming tasks people throw my way. kind regards,

Bringing ERP to Small Business with Tryton

If there's any upside to the lousy economy, it's that it has pushed a lot of people to realize their dreams of starting small businesses or going into business for themselves. Thanks to open source projects like Tryton, small businesses have the tools to run with the big dogs. Tryton is a general application platform that is split into three parts: A client, server, and modules that provide functionality like accounting, invoicing, sale and purchase management, inventory management, and so on. The default set of modules provides much of the functionality any small (or large) business needs to track its money, inventory, and employee's time.



OStatic Buffer Overflow...

Why one writer can never be exclusive to Linux and open source on the desktop. The file compatibility of the current productivity stack and the lack of some applications matter.

Open source does not work well for bad guys. While some researchers express fear of malware writers using open source to improve their work, it actually doesn't help them.

If a Bike Can Power a Toaster, Why Can't a Wii Fit Control a Linux Box?

What, We AREN'T Going Out for Milkshakes After This?

One of the best things about technology and its innate hackability (intentional or otherwise) is the endless variety of seemingly mismatched hardware and software that end up working (logically, even) once a hack is finished. The combinations are limitless -- using a stationary bike to power your NetBSD toaster, installing Linux on an XBox 360 -- and range from useful, to potentially useful, to "just because I can."

There have been some hacks done to the Nintendo Wii, enabling people to create and test homebrew applications and travel the globe, virtually, via balance board and Google Earth. The Wiimote has been configured to control a few open source applications, such as MythTV. Now, as CNet's Eric Franklin reports, Google software engineer Matt Cutts has gotten his Wii Fit balance board to communicate with his Linux box (he's using Ubuntu) via Bluetooth and roughly 200 lines of Python code.



What is a good way to normalize RSS feeds

I am about to write some code to process RSS feeds. However, I am finding that I have to special case for the several different types of RSS standards that our there (Atom 1.0, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, etc.). There are some libraries out there, and I was wondering what people had to say about which ones might make sense. I'm open to writing this in Python, Java, PHP or Ruby.

Good way to parse RSS feeds in Python

Installing libxml2 on the mac

Hello. I have a python script that requires libxml2 import. I cannot find the libxml2 package on the default mac python installation. Where can I get it from? I did not find it on python.org. Maybe I didn't look in the right places?

Good tool to view response headers

I am looking for a tool to allow me to find out the response headers that are being sent back from my server. I am thinking of writing a script that makes an HTTP request, but I don't want to do cookie management, etc to get to sections of my site that require me to login. What tools can I use that will dump the http headers and show me a request/response trail for my web app? The web app is running on apache and is written in python.
