submitted a #talk about practical threshold OPRF deployments (#klutshnik & #sphinx, and maybe a little opaque) to #39c3 - let's see if it gets admitted.

\m/ dnet just released v0.6 of androsphinx, a v2.0 compatible #android client for the #sphinx #passwordmanager! \o/

you ask, wtf sphinx? check out: https://sphinx.pm

get the android client here: https://github.com/dnet/androsphinx/releases/tag/v0.6

have you ever annotated a TypedDict onto the **kwargs fuction and want Sphinx to automatically add it to the function's docstring?

class GreetingKwargs(TypedDict):
name: Annotated[str, Doc("the name of the person to greet")]

def greet(**kwargs: Unpack[GreetingKwargs]):
"""Greet a person.

:returns: A nice greeting
"""
return f"hello, {kwargs['name']}!"

i wrote a plugin for it https://github.com/cthoyt/sphinx-unpack

#Archaeologists & #divers worked together to retrieve #statues, Roman #coins & other #relics from the #Mediterranean seabed in #Alexandria, #Egypt on Thursday. Among the finds were a headless statue, a #sphinx & an unknown priest figure.

She halted before the sphinx issued a challenge and set up camp. She hung a sign from her tent:

"The answer to the riddle - 2 silver"

After a dozen travellers had passed safely, the sphinx called out. "Do you also sell riddles?"

"I have one no man had solved."

"Will you sell it?"

"For a kiss."

I might have finally found the tooling I was looking for on requirement engineering: sphix-needs, extension to the #sphinx documentation tooling from #python land.

I always disliked the idea of the big comercial ones to have a db for requirements - i wanted "requirements as code" sit next to the code, with the option to have full traceability back and forth from high level specs down to code and back...

This seems more then promising due to customization options

I generally like working with reStructuredText for technical documentation. I use it a lot both at work and on my own projects.

But the little detail that a single space off on the indentation turns something into a block quote, which happens *all the time* in lists with sub points, is rather annoying. They should have stuck with ">" for block quotes instead.

I see these accidental block quotes all the time in documentation.

Earlier this year, I switched over to using the #denote #emacs package for managing the content on my #sphinx powered blog.

If you are interested in such things, I finally got around to writing up some notes on how I did this

Im Projekt #SPHINX haben das Fraunhofer ISE und Freesuns eine Pilotlinie für innovative PV-#Dachziegel mit Matrix-Schindeltechnologie aufgebaut.

Die Module sind effizient, ästhetisch und ideal für #Bestandsbauten und #Denkmalschutz. Durch versetzt angeordnete #Solarzellen erreichen sie höhere Leistung und bessere #Verschattungstoleranz.

Die EU-geförderte Entwicklung soll gebäudeintegrierte #Photovoltaik-Elemente schneller marktreif machen.

Hawkmoth v0.21.0 is out.

Hawkmoth is a Sphinx extension to incorporate formatted C and C++ source code comments written in
reStructuredText into Sphinx based documentation.

v0.21.0 has improved support for documenting function pointer typedefs, fixes issues in looking up parsed results, and enables REUSE compliance.
