So many red flags in the abstract alone. It's no surprise that the article itself looks like a middle school project.

Using `display: table` is a great way to lay out your elements in a grid while keeping your HTML semantic.

Any chance of doing an internship? I'm doing my master's in maths in Berlin and have experience with development in Python and Clojure.

Are you serious?

No, that's not what he's saying... and I don't know if you realize this, but the author, P.J. Eby, is the same guy who wrote the original WSGI spec.

I agree with you, but Pump is not a web framework. You are not supposed to write your application with Pump. Picasso is a framework I built on top of Pump ( https://github.com/adeel/picasso ) that's more suitable for that. (I can see how

I'd like to do that, but I'm afraid of how much time and effort it would take. I really just wrote Pump/Picasso to use at our new startup, Beagle ( http://beagleapp.com ). I was expecting roughly this kind of response from the Python comm

Werkzeug and WebOb are not what I'm trying to do. I'm reposting a reply I made earlier to irahul: Pump aims to replace WSGI entirely. That is, I believe it does a better job of what WSGI was intended to do. I understand your point that web

by pyninja 15y ago
Thanks for the feedback. I'm not willing to accept that WSGI couldn't be this simple. Pump's specification is modeled on Ring for Clojure ( https://github.com/mmcgrana/ring ), and I'm sure there's a way Ring gets around the issues you men

The problems with start_response have been discussed at length in Web-SIG. As far as I know, they're planning to remove it from the spec in WSGI 2.0 (whenever that's published).

Yes, Pump was heavily inspired by Rack and especially Clojure's Ring ( https://github.com/mmcgrana/ring ).

Building web apps! Basically, it's meant to be a replacement for WSGI. In my view, the problems with WSGI are that it has an unpythonic API (see: start_response and environ), and that it doesn't come with standard middleware that all fram

I looked at the first few pages and saw only a few math papers, and in those the exercises were uninteresting details (e.g. just computation, or the second of two analogous cases where only the first is proved in the paper). Do you really t
