Brian #1: How to Write a Git Commit Message Chris Beams 7 rules of a great commit message Separate subject from body with a blank line Limit the subject line to 50 characters Capitalize the subject line Do not end the subject line with a period Use the imperative mood in the subject line Wrap the body at 72 characters Use the body to explain what and why vs. how Article also includes Why a good commit message matters Discussion about each of the 7 rules Cool hat tips to other articles on the subject “Keep in mind: This has all been said before.” Each word is a different link. Michael #2: Caddy Web Server via Fredrik Mellström Like a more modern NGINX Caddy automatically obtains and renews TLS certificates for all your sites. Caddy's native configuration is a JSON document. Even localhost and internal IPs are served with TLS using the intermediate of a fully-automated, self-managed CA that is automatically installed into most local trust stores. Configure multiple Caddy instances with the same storage, and they will automatically coordinate certificate management as a fleet. Production-grade static file server. Brian #3: Some new PEPs approved PEP 770 – Improving measurability of Python packages with Software Bill-of-Materials Accepted for packaging Author: Seth Larson, Sponsor Brett Cannon “This PEP proposes using SBOM documents included in Python packages as a means to improve automated software measurability for Python packages.” PEP 750 – Template Strings Accepted for Python 3.14 Author: Jim Baker, Guido van Rossum, Paul Everitt, Kaudai Aono, Lysandros Nikolaou, Dave Peck “Templates provide developers with access to the string and its interpolated values before they are combined. This brings native flexible string processing to the Python language and enables safety checks, web templating, domain-specific languages, and more.” Michael #4: juv A toolkit for reproducible Jupyter notebooks, powered by uv. Create, manage, and run Jupyter notebooks with their dependencies Pin dependencies with PEP 723 - inline script metadata Launch ephemeral sessions for multiple front ends (e.g., JupyterLab, Notebook, NbClassic) Powered by uv for fast dependency management Use uvx to run jupyterlab with ephemeral virtual environments and tracked dependencies. Extras Brian: Status of Python versions new-ish format Use this all the time. Can't remember if we've covered the new format yet.

Mikah Sargent dives deep into Archive Utility on macOS, a powerful but often overlooked tool that works behind the scenes to compress and expand files on your Mac. From creating basic zip archives to encrypted files, this episode reveals all the hidden features of this versatile utility. -How compression works - Compression algorithms look for repeating patterns in data to make files smaller, though already compressed files like JPEGs may not benefit much. -Quick compression with right-click - The fastest way to compress files is selecting them, right-clicking, and choosing "Compress," which always creates a standard zip file. -Opening Archive Utility - Access it directly by using Command+Space and typing "archive" to explore its full capabilities beyond the right-click option. -Archive Utility settings - Configure where expanded files are saved, what happens to archives after expansion, and whether to automatically expand nested archives. -Expansion options - Choose to keep, trash, or delete archives after expanding them, or move them to a specific location. -Compression options - Similar settings exist for what happens to original files after creating an archive. -Archive formats explained - Despite setting preferences in Archive Utility, the right-click "Compress" option always creates zip files regardless of settings. -Creating CPGZ archives - These compressed archives must be created by selecting a folder through the File menu, not through right-click compression. -Regular archives (CPIO) - Simple "briefcase" archives without compression, useful for bundling files without reducing size. -Apple Archive (AAR) - A Mac-specific format that uses multi-threaded compression to efficiently compact files. -Encrypted archives (AER) - Secure, password-protected archives that can be unlocked with Touch ID if saved to your keychain. -Why ZIP remains the standard - ZIP format is used for the right-click compression option because of its universal compatibility across different operating systems.

In this episode, we break down how Doss has streamlined Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) and Order-to-Cash workflows to meet the needs of machinery and industrial companies. Traditional ERP systems often fall short for real-world teams in these industries—demanding lengthy setup times, high costs, and extensive customization. Doss's Adaptive Resource Platform (ARP) takes a different approach, providing flexibility and usability without the common ERP headaches. Our CPQ solution, inspired by customer needs in grinding and deburring, helps teams manage custom orders without creating bloated catalogs of unique SKUs. With Doss, teams can pull data from their catalogs, apply lookups and filters, and seamlessly manage both standard and custom configurations, all while maintaining a clean product catalog. Context-specific options adjust automatically for details like payment methods, sizes, and delivery locations, allowing workflows to adapt quickly without rigid coding. On the Order-to-Cash side, Doss brings procurement, quoting, inventory, and invoicing processes into a single platform. For many industrial teams, these tasks are spread across multiple disconnected tools, which introduces inefficiencies and risks. Doss consolidates these functions, enabling teams to issue purchase orders, track inventory costs, and consolidate sales data from channels like Shopify, Amazon, and wholesale. This not only reduces manual coordination but also provides a unified view of the entire order cycle. In this episode, we'll cover the key elements of our CPQ and Order-to-Cash solutions, including insights from our customers and the specific challenges we address. Learn how Doss provides an efficient, composable solution for industrial teams looking to optimize operations and focus on growth without the overhead of traditional ERP implementations.

How To Setup a DAO Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. DAOs or Distributed Autonomous Organizations bring people together to pursue a common goal. Here are the steps to set up a DAO: Create the DAO from an existing platform that provides DAO structures. Choose a template that best fits the function of the DAO such as membership, company, or fundraising. Set a name for the DAO. Configure the template for your DAO. Adjust the settings for the performance. Launch the DAO. Attach a wallet for managing funds and transfers. You can either attach directly to a network such as Ethereum or set up a testbed. Invite others to join the DAO and contribute to the cause. DAOs give everyone the opportunity to vote on the direction and policies of the group. DAOs range from small-group initiatives to large-scale movements. Start with a small group and test out your idea before setting it up for scaling into a large network. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textConfigure-to-order (CTO) manufacturing presents a distinctive category, with many businesses initially steering clear due to the challenges of product standardization overhead, which is particularly daunting for startups. Furthermore, the expectations diverge notably between B2B and B2C industries regarding configure-to-order processes. B2C sectors like furniture, mattresses, automotive, appliances, and tires often demand configurability, largely propelled by consumer demands. Conversely, B2B industries requiring configurability span oil and gas parts, aftermarket services, industrial distributors, equipment manufacturers, and field service firms, where needs may stem from customer requirements or internal efforts to streamline estimation and quoting processes. Initially, smaller companies might classify themselves as service or engineer-to-order focused, managing their quoting manually before transitioning to configure-to-order workflows.In this episode, our host, Sam Gupta, discusses the top 10 Configure-to-Order Manufacturing ERP Systems in 2024. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of Configure-to-Order Manufacturing ERP Systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each Configure-to-Order Manufacturing ERP System.For more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

Check out the bargain caves for the best deals on essential gear. Many high-quality brands are already giving large discounts in anticipation for new products to hit shelves in the New Year. Take advantage, save the money and get more bang for buck. Items to Look For Tents: Look for sturdy, weather-resistant tents for camping trips. Sleeping Bags: Check the R value for proper insulation to ensure warmth. Sleeping Pads: Essential for a comfortable night's sleep outdoors. Camping Chairs: Opt for lightweight, durable options. Smart Watches: Ideal for tracking fitness and staying connected. Beach Towels: Large, absorbent towels for beach days or backyard lounging.

Early Christmas Gift Ideas Consider purchasing gifts now to spur excitement for next season's adventures. Items like camping gear make excellent Christmas presents. Navigating Online Shopping to Find the Best Deals Using Filters to Ease Shopping Stress After searching for an item, always use filters to quickly organize and sort through listings. Set the filter to 4 Stars and above, then sort by “Average Review.” Featured listings are often paid promotions, so focus on reviews for genuine feedback. Checking Reviews Before You Buy Outdoors Gear It's easy to get lost in the deals when shopping online. If a product catches your eye, always check the reviews and star ratings. Configure the reviews to show the most recent feedback and read through them thoroughly. This allows one to first understand the product better, but then also alerts one to become conscious of any "known defects". Stocking Stuffer Ideas Portable Fan A portable fan is essential for campers and travelers who need a good night's sleep. Look for a compact, lightweight fan with a hook for hanging and rechargeable batteries. Headlamps Headlamps are a must-have for roadside emergencies, camping, and hiking. Keep one in every vehicle and pack to ensure hands-free lighting. Headlamps can also be a very inexpensive stocking stuffer for the kids to have night time games or pretend to be on a campout in the living room. Clear Backpack A clear backpack is a great gift for stadium event attendees. Many concerts and large sporting events, such as NFL games, only allow clear bags that are plastic, vinyl, or PVC and no larger than 12” x 6” x 12” NFL Clear Bag Policy.

Who Should Listen? Credit lenders, Managing Partners, Investors, and RIA's Topics:Factors and Complexities Within the Current MarketChallenges That RIA's FaceThe Future of Private Credit...and so much more.Top Takeaways“The market has been more dynamic over the last six months than over the last six years.” Jordan, Aaron, and Joe dive into the dynamic nature of the present market landscape They point out that the lenders struggling today might be different from the ones struggling in six months. It's important to realize that what we think about someone's market position might not always be true. The path RIAs need to take to succeed. These obstacles include balancing liquid and private credit investments, navigating the diverse landscape from major funds to smaller enterprises, and addressing educational gaps. Recognizing trends like equity and credit secondaries can drive market evolution despite these hurdles. Success in the credit markets depends on understanding different segments and investment strategies, empowering RIAs to prepare better and achieve success.“The shift we've seen is permanent”. When it comes to the future of the private credit market, Aaron acknowledges how some believe that the high returns associated with private credit may be dwindling and that investors are becoming wary of the asset class. Joe explains that this is just the beginning of a significant transformation in credit markets, with private credit set to play an even larger role in the financial landscape in the future.

Welcome back to another insightful Develpreneur conversation with Rob and Michael on communication. In this episode, they focus on tools and expectations. Over the years, communication methods have evolved significantly, and with them, the expectations surrounding their use have also changed. Today, we'll explore different types of communication tools, the appropriate contexts for each, and how to manage expectations around them. Let's listen to what Rob and Michael say about Navigating Communication Tools in Modern Workplaces. The Evolution of Communication Tools When many of us started our careers, options were limited to email and newsgroups. Text messaging was unheard of, and instant messaging platforms were still in their infancy. Today, we have many communication tools, each serving different purposes and contexts, both personal and professional. Instant Personal Communication Text messaging on personal phones represents the most immediate form of communication. This is akin to someone tapping you on the shoulder, expecting a quick response. In a professional setting, tools like Slack or Microsoft Teams serve a similar purpose. These platforms are more passive compared to text messages but still imply a need for timely responses during work hours. Dialog-Based Communication Moving beyond instant communication, we enter the realm of dialog-based tools, such as email. Unlike instant messaging, emails allow for more thought-out responses and generally have a lower expectation for immediate replies. Social media messages, like those on LinkedIn or Facebook, also fall into this category but often carry even less urgency. Setting Communication Standards With the variety of tools available, setting clear standards within your organization or personal workflow is crucial. Understanding the urgency and expected response times for different communication methods helps manage both sender and receiver expectations. Personal and Professional Boundaries A key point raised was the importance of setting boundaries, particularly when juggling personal life, primary job responsibilities, and side hustles. The type of job you have significantly impacts how you manage communications. For instance, those in mission-critical roles, such as healthcare, need to be more responsive to urgent communications, even outside regular working hours. Prioritizing Communication Channels To maintain a balance, prioritize communication channels: Phone Calls: Reserved for urgent or critical issues requiring immediate attention. Personal Texts: Quick but less urgent than phone calls. Professional Messaging Tools (Slack/Teams): Used for work-related communications during business hours. Email: For detailed, non-urgent communications that allow time for a thoughtful response. Social Media: Generally for personal use, but can also serve professional networking purposes with a lower expectation for immediate response. Managing Notifications and Availability Modern tools offer ways to manage availability and notifications effectively: Do Not Disturb: Most smartphones have features to limit interruptions during non-working hours. Status Indicators: Use status indicators on platforms like Slack to communicate availability. However, use them judiciously to avoid them being ignored. Scheduled Quiet Times: Tools like Apple's Screen Time and similar features on other devices help enforce boundaries by limiting access to apps during designated times. Effective Use of Calendars Utilize calendars to block out time for focused work, meetings, and personal breaks. This transparency helps colleagues understand your availability and plan accordingly. Additionally, communicate your working hours clearly to manage expectations around response times. Avoiding Digital Overload It's crucial to take control of digital tools rather than letting them control you: Turn Off Unnecessary Notifications: Constant alerts can create anxiety and disrupt focus. Configure your devices to minimize distractions. Scheduled Checks: Limit checking emails and non-critical messages to specific times of the day to avoid constant interruptions. Digital Fasting: Consider periodic digital detoxes to recharge and regain focus. Resources and books, like "The Digital Fast: 40 Days to Detox Your Mind and Reclaim What Matters Most," provide strategies for managing digital consumption effectively. Take Control of Your Communication Tools Navigating the myriad communication tools available today requires a thoughtful approach to managing expectations and maintaining work-life balance. By prioritizing channels, setting boundaries, and effectively using technology, we can ensure that communication remains efficient and effective without overwhelming our lives. Take these insights, apply them to your daily routine, and experience a more balanced, productive approach to communication.

2024 is coming fast and many people set unrealistic fitness goals to improve their fitness. Did you know that 60-80 percent of these resolutions fail by mid- February? The Problem with New Year's Resolutions? New Year's resolutions often fail because they are based on unrealistic expectations. Many people dive into intense fitness regimens without considering the long-term commitment required. Many people set huge goals without considering their current fitness level or the time/effort needed to achieve those goals. This leads to burnout, frustration, and giving up especially when the progress isn't as quick or significant as expected.Configure a Lifestyle Change Mindset:Approach your goal(s) as lifestyle changes. Start with one change before starting another one. By focusing on small, achievable goals, you can give it your full attention, increase the likelihood of success, and build a solid foundation for long-term success. Create a plan: Plan out your new lifestyle change. (what,when,where and how) This can include creating a schedule for exercise, meal planning, and/or setting aside time for self-care. Having a plan will help you stay organized and focused. Set Realistic and Specific Goals:When setting fitness goals, it is important to be realistic and specific. Instead of saying "I want to get fit," you can say "I want to exercise for 30 minutes, 1-2x a week." Setting specific goals allows you to track your progress and stay motivated along the way. Start Small: Instead of trying to change everything at once, start with small changes. This will make it easier to stick to your new lifestyle. For example, if you want to eat healthier, start by adding more fruits and vegetables to your meals, incorporating a daily walk or swapping sugary drinks for water Find Exercises You Enjoy:One of the keys to long-term success is finding exercises that you enjoy. This is crucial when starting a new fitness regimen. If you don't enjoy it, it becomes a chore. Seek Professional Guidance:Consulting a fitness trainer will provide valuable guidance and support and help you create a personalized plan, teach proper form and keep you accountable. Having a support system keeps you motivated and on track with a lesser chance of skipping workouts. Celebrate Small Victories:As you make progress CELEBRATE!! Celebrations will keep you motivated and reinforce the positive changes you're making.Recognize and appreciate the effort you put in, whether it's completing a challenging workout, reaching a milestone, or sticking to your new habits. Instead of focusing on what you're giving up, focus on the positive aspects of your new lifestyle. Be patient and kind to yourself: Lifestyle changes take time.
