jacobian on Newish to python and want to use 3.x. Would like help finding a framework most similar to CodeIgniter (PHP) - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"There are two major frameworks that're compatible with Python 3: [Django](http://djangoproject.com/) and [Pyramid](http://www.pylonsproject.org/). I'm not familiar enough with CodeIgnighter to tell you which'll feel the most similar, but I think you'll probably be happy with either of 'em. Good luck!" - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

"Thank you for putting this together. It's a great summary, and shows that there's some stuff we need to work on." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

"I'm really sorry about that; it's not the intent. The goal here is to articulate the values and norms that have been part of our community since the beginning. If you can think a bit about what exactly makes you feel "alienated" and how we could change things to help you feel better, I'd love to read it. https://www.djangoproject.com/conduct...." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

"I hope I can convince you not to think of this as "new" rules, but as writing down rules that already exist. You're completely right that social conventions in the Django community already cover this stuff; our goal here is to articulate and write down what those conventions are. That way you don't have to have been part of the community for years to know what the social mores are. We've always been a community that values documentation; we're just documenting behavior that previously has been undocumented :) I'm quite serious that we're looking for all feedback, positive or negative. Including suggestions that we don't adopt a CoC at all. Make your case convincingly enough and we'll listen to it -- there's no difference here than with anything else the community does. You'll certainly have an uphill climb: for example, I can prove that adopting documents like this one have substantial positive community effects, so you'll have to have convincing evidence for your dissent. But if..." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss
jacobian on My company uses Python to automate image processing workflows and video streaming for the Adult Entertainment industry. Why are we banned from presenting at PyCon? - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"He may or may not be trolling, but I can tell you that he certainly didn't speak to us about it. I was the program chair for 2012 and 2013, so it would have been my call. So this "ban" is all in his head; see my comment below." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

"For the record: I was the program chair for PyCon 2012 and 2013. We received no proposals along the lines the OP describes; nobody was "banned". If we had recieved a proposal about image processing and video workflows we'd be very interested. We'd have to be sure that the talk materials didn't actually contain pornography, but as long as the material stayed focus on the tech this talk sounds exactly like one we'd like to have at PyCon. reamsworks: I hope you're not just a troll; please consider submitting a talk to PyCon 2014." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

jacobian on Considering Django for our labs bioinformatics tools website. Is this a good idea? I have no experience with web frameworks. - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"Any web framework is going to be a blast compared to the mostly-by-hand way you're doing it now. As for whether Django's the right match? Well, I'd consider a few things: * What do you already know now? If, for example, you know Ruby but not Python, well, Django (or any Python framework) isn't going to be your most expedient choice as you'll have to learn a new language. If, on the other hand, you already know Python, then Django could be a good choice. * How much "hand holding" do you like? Django is relatively opinionated about the choices it makes on your behalf (about things like ORMs, URL routing, form processing, template languages, etc). Do you care about these choices? If you don't really, then Django's probably a good choice; all of it's components are fine and will work for you. But if you have strong feelings about ORM design, or have a particular template language you really want to use, well, Django may make you jump through hoops you wouldn't have to deal with if you..." - Jacob Kaplan-Moss

Has anyone used Gunicorn's Tornado worker? Any caveats to be aware of? It's the only async worker stable under Py3.
RT @ramenlabs: .@selenamarie If virtualenvwrapper was a Ruby project, there's no way they'd call it that. It'd be called snocone, or bagel, or laundrycart.
Don't Yuck My Yum: https://t.co/PzBcsVp73R — this isn't explicitly about open source communities, but it totally could be. Thanks, @zefrank.
If you don't fully understand how character encodings flow through the entire flow of your stack, well, Python 3 will MAKE you understand.
