If you ever wanted to retry a single function/method call without any loops or decorators, check out stamina 24.2.0: #Python

Release 24.2.0 · hynek/stamina
Highlights This release adds two handy classes for the cases when you just want to retry a single function/method call: def do_something_with_url(url, some_kw): resp = httpx.get(url) resp.r...

@… gram dot social’s feed is now incompatible with Mona.app ☹️ is this a pixelfed change?

sometimes the right answer is to slap a retry on it
#systemd

what is the typical design process for multiple token buckets?
e.g. if you have a bunch of go routines that:
listen to new domain registrations ->
check for IP token bucket (or rough /30 bucket?) -> if rate limited, stack in list of things to do in that prefix?? send to disk?
check for ASN token bucket - if cidr range is unknown, send to ASN querying and sleep(?)
ASN querying go routine -> rate limited to a request every 8 hours (100/month), or every 2-ish hours (500/month) - cached once known
when ASN becomes unblocked -> /now/ you can query the domain
(this also applies to queue design in general, when the thing you're queuing for might take a long while to dequeue in breadth first search, or if you have multiple rate limits to respect)
e.g., if I have it run an insert into "asn_lookups_resume_domains" for the ASN job to lookup, then resume/retry the domain jobs
or if it's completely blocking
or if it's just n-workers such that probably some prefixes are unblocked

An evocative view of the matters we tend to discuss here in much more "practical" and mundane ways. (Transformation requires retry as much as plans.)

There must be lots of people upgrading Mastodon right now... I got a failed build with a 503 Service Unavailable from the docker registry. 😎
(Succeeded on retry...)

TIL that there's retry() helper in #Laravel :ablobsmile:
