2023-06-06 Weeknotes

New versions of attrbox, pdfmerge, and ezq; a Design Lab for a Visual Schedule; converting subtitles into transcripts.

Going forward, I'm going to start calling these "weeknotes" following the apparent convention for this kind of thing.

Releases #

attrbox 0.1.2; my brief notes. Because of annoying py.typed and PyPI issues, I eventually had to release attrbox 0.1.5
pdfmerge 1.0.0; my brief notes. I use this about once a week and not having to keep around python 2 feels like a huge relief.
ezq 3.0.4 just to make it py.typed.
visual-schedule 0.1.0. This was the inaugural project for Design Lab.
srt2txt.py a quick gist to aggregate subtitle file by speaker.

Fun with Python Mapping: I learned more about the python type system than I expected.
PEP 8 Thoughts: I re-read PEP 8 for the first time in a long time and found a few bits I didn't agree with anymore.
apt segfault: partially resolved a segfault in apt.
1 hour to make a visual schedule (Design Lab #1): This was a lot of fun to make. I'm trying to keep the amount of work low
Trying whisperX: Trying to generate subtitles and transcript from a video file.
