SubscribeRight after PyCon (victory!), I went to Seoul. Before leaving, I figured “Hey, they may have a Seoul-Python or something!”, so I looked around, and found a forum: python.kr. I posted a message there introducing myself and asking if anyone wanted to meet to discuss our favorite language. I got a few responses, and I [...]
CalDAV slides from Montréal-Python
Someone just said maybe he’d like to see my slides from my flash presentation about CalDAV at Montréal-Python. Here it is.
Newton’s method for square root
A while back, my friend Yannick showed me that the source code for Return to Castle Wolfenstein had been made public. The part that interested him the most was the way they (he knew the name of the developer, I forgot it, sorry) calculated square roots. I’ll let you have a look at it first: [...]
CalDAV at Montréal Python!
I’ll be doing a short presentation on my python CalDAV library tomorrow at Montréal Python! I’m really looking forward to have some questions about it, maybe find a few contributors. I’ve already had some, as you can see on bitbucket, but for this library to be a success, we’ll have to do more than bug [...]

Portrait de blogueurs
J’ai été interviewé pour Portrait de blogueurs hier soir!
Django Debug Toolbar
I wish for two things: That there was some kind of RT function with rss feeds (the only feature I like about twitter) That Django Debug Toolbar is merged in django 1.2+ via Planet GNOME BTW, I can’t believe no one else on Planet Django mentioned it yet!
When a crazy person talks to bots…
Allright, fine, it was me… I have just discovered that Google Translate can be used through XMPP! Details in this article about translation bots. The odd thing is, once I have a “contact” in my contact list, I don’t expect it to be a bot (yes, I would suck at being a judge for a [...]
The Chatroulette phenomenon
I’m fairly certain that by now everyone knows what Chatroulette is, so I won’t introduce the concept. I just wanted to mention what has been happening over there in the last couple of months. About 2 months ago, I opened it up, and just saw a few people staring at their webcams, but mostly lots [...]
