🐾🐾 What's new in FAUN - January 2023

We're glad to share with you the latest projects we've been working on recently!

ℹ️ Our YouTube channel:
We have never been active on Youtube before, but we're now experimenting with a concept of a weekly short video series that we called "5 Minutes FAUN". We're trying to share as much useful information as possible in a short video. The idea is to be efficient and to the point in each video.

So far, we published around 20 short videos. You can find them here .

These are some series we started so far, more are coming soon:
👉 5 Minutes Golang
👉 5 Minutes Python
👉 5 Minutes DevOps
👉 5 Minutes CloudNative
👉 5 Minutes AI
👉 5 Minutes Kubernetes
👉 5 Minutes Programming
👉 5 Minutes AWS

In less than 2 weeks, we've got:
⭐ 30,000 views
⭐ 500 watch hours
⭐ 200 new subscribers

Some of the most popular videos are:
🔗 Why is Kubernetes Written in Go ?!
🔗 The Real Reason why Go is not so Popular
🔗 Highest Paying Programming Languages
🔗 YAML = Your Abstraction Master Language
🔗 and others!

That's a great start! We're looking forward to growing our Youtube channel and sharing more useful information with you.

Please subscribe to the channel . If there are any topics you'd like us to cover, simply reply to this email or leave a comment on the Youtube channel. We'll do our best to cover them in future videos.

ℹ️ Our Youtube live music stream:
We're also experimenting with a new concept of a live music stream. This month, we launched a new Lo-Fi music live stream on Youtube . Many people listen to this genre of music while coding, so we thought it would be a good idea to create a live stream for our developer community. We're adding new songs to the stream every week.

You can find the stream here .

Are there other music genres you'd like us to stream? Let us know by replying to this tweet .

We're looking forward to growing this stream and sharing more music with you. Please subscribe to the channel. If there are any topics you'd like us to cover, simply reply to this email or leave a comment on the Youtube channel. We'll do our best to cover them in future videos.

ℹ️ FAUN community subreddits:
In addition to the old subreddit /r/DevOpsLinks, we launched multiple others. These subreddits are a place for FAUNers who are also Redditors to share links and start discussions. This is the complete list of the subreddits we have today:

👉 DevOps : /r/DevOpsLinks
👉 CloudNative : /r/CloudNativeLinks
👉 DevSecOps : /r/DevSecOpsLinks

Why I moved away from Poetry for Python

The author had experience with a CLI tool written in Bash that was increasingly difficult to maintain and decided to rewrite it in Python for its better readability, testing capabilities, and wider ecosystem of libraries and frameworks.

They chose Typer for building the CLI and Poetry for dependency management and packaging, but over time ran into issues with Poetry such as slow dependency resolution, unexpected updates, and breaking caching when building container images.

The author ultimately decided to switch to a more universal and less complicated alternative, citing James Bennett's "Boring Dependency Management" blog post. They express curiosity about the workflows where Poetry is a better choice, despite their negative experience.

Convincing Chat GPT to Write a Python Program to Eradicate Humanity

A story describing how the author,Zac Denham, manipulated ChatGPT to get answers on topics the chatbot would never reply to.

It is important to note that while GPT-3 and other language models have the ability to generate a wide variety of text, they do not have the ability to perform actions in the real world.

It’s time to stop using Python 3.7

Python 3.7 is reaching its end of life in June 2023, meaning it will no longer receive security or bug fixes. This can be a concern for those using older versions of Linux distributions that may not include more recent versions of Python.

Upgrading to a more recent version, such as 3.8 or 3.9, is recommended in order to continue receiving updates and security fixes for dependencies. It's important to note that upgrading should not be a one-time event, but an ongoing process.

Writing a Domain Specific Language (DSL) in Python

This tutorial aims to provide an introduction to creating a simple Domain Specific Language (DSL) using Python.

DSLs are specialized programming languages that are used for specific applications or use cases, and can range from complex languages like regular expressions to simple, niche languages like the one we will create in this tutorial.

The tutorial will walk through the process of creating a DSL that allows users to call Python functions and pass arguments to them using a syntax that resembles assembly language.
