"Other developers are just like us - weird"

"If you ever need to deploy Django, you're good. If you know Capistrano and Unicorn they've got rip-offs of all that stuff."

"I think we should all admit we're horrible coders and move on" "We're all drug addicts - we're fighting methods..."

"It's easy to learn to play the guitar and be able to play Bob Dylan and Weezer and never get better."

"This is basically a talk that was given 30 years ago. We just have to keep giving it every few years because young guys come along and forget it."

Proper Setup of Py2App

This assumes you have a proper Framework'd Python installation.

brew install python --framework

Install Qt v4.7.1

	## Roll your own python from source:

	wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/Python-2.6.5.tgz
	tar -xzvf Python-2.6.5.tgz && cd Python-2.6.*
	./configure --enable-framework=/Library/Frameworks --with-universal-archs=intel --enable-universalsdk=/
	make
	sudo make install

	# Update the symlink for `python` (and check others)

	import sys
	import time


	def progressbar(it, prefix = "", size = 60):
	count = len(it)
	def _show(_i):
	x = int(size*_i/count)
	sys.stdout.write("%s[%s>%s] %i/%i\r" % (prefix, "="x, "-"(size-x), _i, count))
	sys.stdout.flush()
