FWIW, I'd be happy to help. Not associated with the London dojo in any way, but 
I run one in Glasgow.

[python-uk] London Python Dojo contacts

[Rachid Belaid]

Hi

Concerning Europython 2015, some friends who organize the Dojo in Barcelona
are considering to do a Dojo during the conf.

Because the conf is in English and most of them are not native english
speaker, they are looking to get in touch with the London Dojo and maybe
collaborate.. If some of the persons helping/participating to the Dojo in
London are also planning to go to Europython then I could put you touch and
maybe you can help each others.

Let me know.

Re: [python-uk] Job Ad: Senior Python Engineers -Skimlinks - London

[Peter Inglesby]

It seems like several of the arguments for keeping the current behaviour
are that it's amusing when somebody gets it wrong.  As somebody who once
accidentally reply-alled criticism of my supervisor to my entire department
at university, I'm not sure that it always is amusing, and so I'm in favour
of changing the behaviour.

Re: [python-uk] Job Ad: Senior Python Engineers -Skimlinks - London

[Michael]

Accidental replies are the spice of life.

The only downside of the reply-to header is the fact that people randomly
complain about it every other year or two, resulting in 20 arguments in
favour, 20 arguments against, then a discussion about how voting for or
against it might be a good idea, and in the majority of cases most people
going "meh, can't be bothered", and a minority deciding that voting is a
good idea, and then sometimes they remove it but most often they don't.

On the upside, they poke a bit of life into things, resulting in the
original poster going "oh, why did I bother? They're just talking about
reply-to rather than our fussball table!"

:-D

I'm pro dropping the reply-to header, it's always awkward when someone gets
bitten by it. People are much more familiar with the difference between
reply and reply all now than they were when the reply-to header solution

These emails all get filtered into a folder for me, it's not hard to do and
it makes it easy to ignore them. If anything I'd prefer more activity on
here, not less.

My 2p worth ;)

More sensible, but a lot less fun for us in the popcorn gallery!

I seem to recall a debate about this a little while ago. I'm in favour of
dropping the munging. Obligatory link to

I'm -1 on removing the reply-to. Any group mailing list that
actually wants to be a discussion should default to using it.

I'm one of the list admins.  There are a couple of others.  Happy to
make a change if a significant majority feel that way.

However, sometimes accidental replies are the only thing keeping the

Maybe we could just get rid of the pointless "Reply-To" header?  It can be
disabled by a list admin on the Mailman admin page.

I get the impression that at least one person per month falls victim to
it.  The reverse, people accidentally answering just to the sender instead
of the whole list, seems better than people accidentally sending private
emails to everyone.​

Well now, that's a slightly larger audience than I had in mind.

How embarrassing .. I apologise for the spam!

Hi Niamh,

I saw a Skimlinks talk a while back at a London data meetup which was super
interesting!

In any case: if you are ever looking for an agency to do coding, we just
started one [1]. I worked for Google as an SWE/SRE for several years and
the others have a great technical background as well. If you just want to
meet for a coffee with no expectations some time, that'd be fun to!

All the best,
Tom

[python-uk] Job ad: Platform engineers at Yoyo (London, Full-time, no remote)

[David Winterbottom]

Morning,

Yoyo, the start-up where I work, are looking to hire Python engineers and
expand our engineering team. Yoyo is a one-year old company of around 25
people with 6 in engineering doing Python, iOS and Android. We're well
funded and have good prospects.

If you're interested in a new challenge then have a look - full details
here: http://yoyo.workable.com/jobs/8166

In terms of python stuff, we use lots of Django and Celery. We're also hot
on testing and writing high quality code. As well as the usual
pull-request-as-code-review process, we build solid test suites using
py.test, factoryboy and mock.

Feel free to email me if you have questions.
