Want to improve your testing process? You should check out "Effective BDD" by Nagy and @sebrose.bsky.social from @manning.com. It is about 2/3rds written and already has loads of great stuff in it. I've used BDD with my clients and still found useful tips and pointers throughout.

Looking to learn the basics of FastAPI? My new course is up, learn how to quickly create APIs, use Pydantic for your models, and HTTP methods to perform CRUD ops.
Yep same. And before you ask "star-star-keyword args"
Which is interesting because sometimes I use mainframe terminology and refer to "star" as "splat", but not in Python.

Woo hoo! 🎉
My book, #Python Workout (2nd edition), is now the #20 best-selling book in programming languages at Amazon.
Thanks so much to everyone who has bought it, and also to everyone leaving such kind reviews.
Looks like my new course is up, come learn how to improve your testing with Python's unittest.mock module.

One place I was at years ago, the person calling in was claiming to be one of the employees and just needed someone's extension. Fortunately, that employee was standing at the receptionist's desk at the time. We quickly implemented a "don't give out digits policy".
