Ever considered getting a local first Prompt Refiner helper? Want to spend some time in a thinking place with a retro 80s Terminal UI? well, now Promptsmith-cli has a Homebrew Tap so you can lower the amount of "things" to install to your macOS and as before, the Windows version is just a zip away. https://github.com/pr0z4k/promptsmith-cli #tui #python #PromptEngineering

New article on goose typing in Python (yes, that's actually a thing).
You can duck typing WHILE type checking.

This double skymap poster will soon decorate my appartment.
Stereographic projection, with constellation lines, constellation boundaries, names of brightest stars, Sun's path, and brightest Messier objects.
Powered by #Python.
Also comes in portrait version. PDF and svg files freely available on my website.
Since the stereographic projection is found in planispheric astrolabes, I wanted to go further and add a moving part, to be pinned at the center of either map.
With the horizon curve you can set the date and local time, and use it as a rotating sky map, to find the rising and setting times for the Sun and stars, time of meridian crossing of stars, and highest elevation.
The horizon curve must be computed according to local latitude ; on this page you'll find the necessary material. Don't know how to use an astrolabe? I also wrote a user guide (in french).
Hope you enjoy it!
