Typo in item 3. It's EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format). You have EXIT (as in, exit stage left)

Re: Instead of setting instance attributes within init

Benjamin W. Smith — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 23:29:14 -0000

I can't speak for any technical pitfalls you may have, but I do have a concern with maintainability..

In my opinion, __init__ is for initializing stuff, so what's wrong with initializing instance attributes there? Seems to me that your way abstracts that in the sense that it takes what would I would normally look for in __init__ and put it somewhere else.. Just a thought that I'm sure you've had already :)

Re: Ubuntu: Try KDE 4.2 Now!

Wanted to give this a go, ran into an error:

W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 778978B00F7992B0
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

Here's the fix:

$ gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key 778978B00F7992B0
gpg: requesting key 0F7992B0 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key 0F7992B0: public key "Launchpad PPA for Project Neon" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1)

$ gpg --export --armor 0F7992B0 | sudo apt-key add -
OK

Hope it helps others.

I wept, then wept some more. I wish for that code to rot in the deepest pit of /dev/null. It pains me, really.

We've had this conversation, but I figure the world should know that you're not alone. It will become a problem. Before you know it you will find yourself downloading MidpSSH (http://www.xk72.com/midpssh... and using it to change your ssh port on your servers at pyOhio so you can ssh out side the building..
