Thanks for the excellent explanation and your great work on Python.

Thanks for pointing this out along with some folks over in the comments on GitHub. I've updated the Gist.

I like the replace method. It's a great way of doing the same thing.

I considered using the [::-1] syntax to reverse the list, but decided that there was enough "cute" stuff in the examples already.

Nice bonus info. I didn't know about this (haven't spent much time with Python 2.x).

Author here. Thanks for this brilliant comment. May the force be with you.

Defining authorisation rules as part of your application sounds fine to me. Aim for making compilation and deployment of your application trivial.

Sounds like you want a linear hierarchy of roles. Attaching a number to each role and making rules based on that number might be all you need. For example:

  Superadmin : 100
  Admin      : 90
  Manager    : 80

  if (a.number > b.number) a can delete b

First and foremost, "light" and "shocking" are references to the word which Litenin imitates: Lightning. I see a mysterious moderator has changed the title – I do not mind, but find it pretty curious.

When I started building Litenin I often found myself waiting several seconds for Feedly to load. My colleagues at work had desktop readers that were equally sluggish. In that perspective it seems rather fast.

I find that Feedly has improved significantly recently. I just loaded my feeds in ~1 second which isn't terrible considering it has a wealth of features that Litenin lacks.

Update: I have implemented teaser texts. I will push it to production in ~24 hours. Right now there are very few teaser texts in the database, but in 24 hours Nimbus (the back-end for Litenin) will have updated all feeds at least once. Thanks once again.
