Yeah, Python is my favorite language these days. I love it for its simplicity and for the "batteries included". These days I've been playing with Flask (http://flask.pocoo.org/) and MongoDB. Django is really cool, but I'm doing some weird stuff and it gets in the way a bit. See you! Telmo. Hey Pedro,

Nice to hear from you, and thanks for your tip! Yeah, Python is my favorite language these days. I love it for its simplicity and for the “batteries included”.

These days I’ve been playing with Flask (http://flask.pocoo.org/) and MongoDB. Django is really cool, but I’m doing some weird stuff and it gets in the way a bit.

See you!
Telmo.

Great to see that you are a pythonista now! :) Django rocks and I use it a lot! As a suggestion to this problem... take a look at South Migrations! http://south.aeracode.org/ I use this in all my projects and its really great and you can add and remove fields to your models and only have to do: <code> ./manage.py schemamigration app_name --auto # to create migration ./manage.py migrate app_name # to apply migration! </code> its great to update remote versions with new features! Regards! See you one of these days! Pedro Hi Telmo!

I would add that when data are scarce, for instance if evaluating the fitness of one individual costs one week of experiments, then A/B testing et well thought mutations is a reasonable way to go. I give you one week to design the next mutation, try to do better than chance ;-) Nice point.

The part I don't miss is having to deal with drivers, sudden breakages, etc. Nothing's perfect, I guess. To be fair, you can do the same thing on a mac with macports. I use it for all sorts of things, but it never seems to work out for me in this case. I will definitely go back to Linux if Apple decides to apply their iPhone/iPad-like restrictive policies to laptops. Yes, I do miss Gentoo sometimes.

You can also play a bit with USE flags so that you can customize the installation: for example to have matplotlib using traits ( http://code.enthought.com/projects/traits ). Now.. wich one is easier?
