# Hacky script for downloading videos from PyVideo and converting them to m4v 
# format so they can be synced onto your apple device.  Useful if you
# want to see everything that happened at PyCon while commuting.
# 
# Requirements:
# * pip install requests BeautifulSoup
# * youtube-dl (from https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/) - add this to the 
#   directory where this script runs and ensure its execute bit is set.  
#   This was the only YouTube downloader I found that worked.  It doesn't 
#   really have a good Python API so I call it through os.system.

One-line Tree in Python

Using Python's built-in defaultdict we can easily define a tree data structure:

def tree(): return defaultdict(tree)

That's it!

"""
An alternative Django ``TEST_RUNNER`` which uses unittest2 test discovery from
a base path specified in settings, rather than requiring all tests to be in
``tests`` module of an app.

If you just run ``./manage.py test``, it'll discover and run all tests
underneath the ``TEST_DISCOVERY_ROOT`` setting (a path). If you run
``./manage.py test full.dotted.path.to.test_module``, it'll run the tests in
that module (you can also pass multiple modules).

2. Whitespace, Parens, Braces, Linebreaks

  
  
  if/else/for/while/try always have spaces, braces and multiple lines.

jQuery templates use constructs like:

    {{if condition}} print something{{/if}}

This, of course, completely screws up Django templates,
because Django thinks {{ and }} mean something.

Wrap {% verbatim %} and {% endverbatim %} around those
blocks of jQuery templates and this will try its best
