My gingerbread creations from the past two years. Any ideas for what I should try this year?

If you enjoy #Python Oddities but prefer mediums that aren't Twitter, the best I currently have is this talk: https://trey.io/oddities

I've considered compiling these into a blog post eventually but haven't done so yet. 🤷

Today for #projects: another hashtag I coined, the #pythonoddity hashtag.

Years ago I decided I was going to try tweeting one "python oddity" (anything that might be a gotcha for a new Python user). I decided to make a hashtag for it: #pythonoddity.

I still collect #python oddities but I don't share them as regularly as I used to. Maybe I should start that hashtag up again here?

Here's a collection of some of my favorite #pythonoddity tweets over the years: https://twitter.com/i/events/871564334832304128?t=E4efyEDQ58IlJwqJ6MZXYg&s=09

Dear @libreoffice - read the room, please. Blockchain is NOT something your wider community is interested in. To put it friendly. Putting out a blog entry trying to raise interest in Blockchain and LibreOffice is so badly timed that I am astonished it even made it through your editorial process.

Whenever I'm tempted to think that a new thing seems too complicated, I read newspaper articles about pizza from the early 1950s.
