Sharing with HN: a starter app to understand Cloudflare Containers (introduced in June 2025 as beta)
The official docs were vague and examples pretty bare, so I made a inspector/debugger app to understand the reverse proxied container env that you cannot ssh to.
This could unlock cost effective Python services for you.

pro tip: if you're dwelling in apartments and can't spare a bedroom or closet, use a "grow tent" ($150-$250 on Amazon) to isolate your workspace from toddlers and spouses
- big enough for standing desks - most noise isolation headphones will clean up your audio for meetings - add whatever solid color backdrop or virtual backgrounds to clean up your video - built-in air circulation to/from windows

Best part of reading this is coming away having learned the existence of units the CLI. How did I spend 20 years on the shell and not have needed or discovered this?

the Talk Python series is actually a great way for Python programmers to discover authors and libraries you wouldn't organically come across on HN or GitHub browsing. I highly recommend it to intermediate python programmers to expand their knowledge scope.

simple templates of movie editing where I am just adding a title, clipping videos at start/end times, etc
for example:
- movie-title title1.mp4 "my awesome movie" --style=lower-left
- movie-cat title1.mp4 clip1.mp4 clip2.mp4 clip3.mp4 --transition=blur --output movie1.mp4
- movie-upload youtube movie1.mp4
Edit: formatting

If you want to build the web with Python, IMO the emphasis should be bringing Python to the web. I think a more promising project is http://pypyjs.org/ - a Python runtime in your browser powered by asm.js
Listen to this podcast where the author describes the project: https://talkpython.fm/episodes/show/32/pypy.js-pypy-python-i...

I want to also vote up Cactus despite the lack of attention paid to it lately. IMO it's very well designed and deserves to be worked on by a wider community.
It's open sourced via BSD 3 clause: https://github.com/koenbok/cactus
I especially liked the "deploy to s3" feature, IMO the cheapest way to run a highly scalable static site today.
Alternatively, a "deploy to GitHub page" would be neat as well.
I would work on extending Cactus if it was a bigger problem personally, but so far what's released fits my needs already.

I've gone down that path before of storing encrypted secrets in SimpleDB. Unfortunately, encrypting string values will bloat the length of your strings, bumping against the 1024 value limit of SimpleDB: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonSimpleDB/latest/DeveloperGu...
