e38: Django pagination for our Wagtail CMS content display
During the session, I discussed tools for generating consistent game characters, settling on Leonardo AI due to its direct interface compared to Midjourney which requires Discord commands. A pagination issue on a Django project was fixed by updating a template to explicitly pass context using the "with" keyword. When working on open source projects, I label small, self-contained issues as "good first issues" to help newcomers learn through contributing without extensive project knowledge. Perplexity, an early knowledge search system, was discussed as providing very generic responses compared to knowledge graphs for question answering and summarization tasks. The live coding focused on consolidating duplicate pagination logic across a Django application into a single helper function to make the code more consistent and maintainable.
