Infrastructures shape habits and lives of those who use them, facilitate certain uses, render possible certain actions, while make more difficult other ones. For instance if you center your efforts in GUI, you benefit some social groups over other, the same if you propose only CLI, just as whether you have installer or not. If you assume that people will have all round fast bandwidth to use your soft - is politics, if you assume they have smartphones - this is politics too, if you assume they have two hands, they can see... All of that is politics.

Re: [arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
That's 7AM UTC, 8AM CET. Whole thing will be recorded on youtube livestream + hopefully edited and polished + its transcript on wiki. So its not really necesearry to attend at the time, but people on IRC asking questions will be very welcomed, since its how the classroom should work. We will try to do 2h session, in last attempt we covered data types basics and some for loops I think so that should be enough at first. In following 14 days there should be some video with intro presentation covering some basics about python, why and what will be covering and some things to get started with.

Re: [arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
After more then half a year I am reviving the python classes, so anyone who haven't had luck to join back in autumn now is there time to join again. The plan is to start on 27th of June, Wednesday 7:00 UTC. Contents will be similar, but hopefully better.

Re: [arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
Session #1 is finished, I am still going over the material and I will make one more offline recording to summarize session #1, which should be shorter then the whole livestream. Results will be linked in README.md on the github https://github.com/ archclassroom/python-beginners with the ipython notebook from the session. Anyone interested in continuing the Python education, here is the link for a poll to pick an ideal date for *session #2* https://framadate.org/archpyb- poll-2. *Deadline for voting is on 10th of November,* so that means that the days in a poll from 1st to 10th are useless... Managing all this seems harder then I imagined.

Re: [arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
Since my first lecture, I am always providing this Virtual Box image with basic Arch Linux with xfce4, nobody wants to build python3 on some outdated Red Hat distro. Its meant mostly for people without Arch, but It might work for you as well Randy. Here is the *.ova file https://mega.nz/#!wAEEna4Q which should most VirtualBox versions be able to import and run.

Re: [arch-general] [Classroom] Python for Beginners - Part 1
Hi all, For learning purposes, you should be happy enough with https://www.pythonanywhere.com/try-ipython/ and for some graphs later https://try.jupyter.org/. However, we will use some packages from https://pypi.python.org/pypi and you will need at least python, python-pip and python-virtualenv (not python2). Looking forward to tomorrow evening.
