I want to start something small, like a learning program. I've been
looking and learning python for about 4 months; and I think that I have
the basics under my belt... is it worth trying my own project, or is it
better to continue with the py tutes?
Also if I was to start, how do I pose myself the question of what am I
actually trying to achieve / what am I trying to make?
any comments and suggestions welcome.

Find some fun projects and try to duplicate them, reinvent the wheel
here and there. You'll do it anyway so get it out of your system.
Write your own webserver, chat or blog software. Implement a
compression algorithm, write an image viewer or a text editor.
You'll learn a lot in the meantime.
Istvan.
If you like problem solving, you could go there, in "Archive": http://ipsc.ksp.sk/
It will probably be more thinking than coding but use python to solve those
problems and time will fly away!

Yes. Start coding some of your own stuff. You'll find all new questions
(and answers) when you do.
Also if I was to start, how do I pose myself the question of what am I
actually trying to achieve / what am I trying to make?
Think about some project you'd really like to have automated. Then think
about the following questions:
What would you get from it? What kind of output would you want? What
kind of input (one time, maintenance, adding, deleting)would you want to
do? Do you want gui or commandline? Would you want it to work
crossplatform? Or just on one machine?
If you've got those answered (at least a start of the answer), then you
can start working on the project itself...

Hi Gurus
I am keen to make a search page on a website, but I have absolutely zero
experience with PHP. I am going to hire an expert, but I thought that it
may pay to try it a bit first myself (I do want to learn how to do it).
What I have is a search page (HTML) and an access database. Now, can
someone give me some clues or links on where to start.
I prefer not to install the whole PHP thing on my own computer, but just to

Hi,
I would like to use pango.layout to display text in a pygtk2 project.
However I could not manage to get the pango.layout object incorporated
in my toplevel gtk.Window and have it displayed.
If anyone could help me either with a minimal example like 'Hello World'
displayed in italics in an pango.layout or the URL to a tutorial where I
can find the relevant infos (the PyGtk tutorial seems not to contain it,
unless I'm really blind)

Hi all
I load datas from an SQL server to a Datagrid. The datagrid columns are
basically read only but one column is not -> the checkboxcolum. The
user needs to be able to check or uncheck this column for selection.
Now at the end of the datagrid (last row) there is another row with a *
in front of it. Once a user clicks on that, at the position of the
checkboxcolumn, it'll add a new row to the datagrid with NULL values.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
