How would you implement a "10% off for first-time customers" coupon?

I need to create a coupon that shouldn't be able to be reused.

I've thought of cookies, IP, emails/authentication, fingerprinting, etc., but nothing is really bulletproof.

How would you approach this?

Edit: This is for an ecommerce platform, so assume no user database since guest checkouts are a must.

Database suggestion

For a machine learning project I am looking into different database backends to store my data. The data is a sparse time series matrix (example at the end). Also, the sensor names are dynamic and could change in the future

Further, FastAPI is used for the backend.

What database like TimescaleDB or InfluxDB do you have experience with and which one do you recommend?



data = {
    "entry_id": "61da2b48-7526-418b-b4d2-0c87a9fb7237",
    "data": {
        "2024-08-01 00:00:00": {
            "sensor_1": 0.0,
            "sensor_2": 10.0
        },
        "2024-08-01 01:00:00": {
            "sensor_1": 1.0
        },
        "2024-08-01 02:00:00": {
            "sensor_1": 1.0,
            "sensor_2": 11.0,
            "sensor_3": 30.0

A Simple sync FastAPI Boilerplate with minimal overhead

Why? To keep myself building the same thing again and again. Lot of great boilerplate projects already out there but many a times they have certain extra features, atleast for me, or use some other 3rd party packages which are not needed by all the projects.

If it helps anyone else too to get the ground running - https://github.com/keshavagrawal89/fastapi\_boilerplate
Quick README: https://github.com/keshavagrawal89/fastapi\_boilerplate/blob/main/README.md

There are so many things which could have been added here but were intentionally left out because sometimes adding features to simple boilerplate kind of defeats the concept of boilerplate. If anyone wants to contribute or fork it out to add any required features - they are welcome to do so.

Although nginx, celery scope is also added in docker-compose but not necessary.
Supabase is used for authentication and Postgres as Database. Should be enough for most of the applications.

Just Launched my first public project! looking for feedback and tips

Hi everyone,
I just launched my first project, "RecAnthology" – a recommendation system for books, movies, and TV shows! I'd love to hear your thoughts and get some tips.
I uploaded it to a public repo ( https://github.com/karar-hayder/RecAnthology ) and hosted it on pythonanywehere ( https://recanthology.pythonanywhere.com ).
Any feedback, ideas and tips are much appreciated

[P] Grounded SAM 2: Ground and Track Anything

https://preview.redd.it/13854j03q2hd1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0735848ae40c2591111fa4ed91d2c28ea829c0ac

With the release of SAM 2, we have taken the opportunity to update our Grounded SAM algorithm. The biggest improvement in SAM 2 compared to SAM is the expansion of its segmentation capabilities to video, allowing users to interactively segment any object and track it in video. However, the main issue with SAM 2 is that the segmented and tracked objects do not contain semantic information. To address this, we have continued the approach of Grounded SAM by **incorporating an open-set detection model**, Grounding DINO. This enables us to extend 2D open-set detection to video object segmentation and tracking.

We have release our code in

[https://github.com/IDEA-Research/Grounded-SAM-2](https://github.com/IDEA-Research/Grounded-SAM-2)

with **very easy implementations**, which is convenient for users.

Project Highlights:

In this repo, we've supported the following demo with **simple implementations**:

* **Ground and Segment Anything** with Grounding DINO, Grounding DINO 1.5 & 1.6 and SAM 2
* **Ground and Track Anything** with Grounding DINO, Grounding DINO 1.5 & 1.6 and SAM 2
* **Detect, Segment and Track Visualization** based on the powerful [https://github.com/roboflow/supervision](https://github.com/roboflow/supervision) library.

And we will continue update our code to make it easier for users.

What do you guys think of how I'm handling this endpoint?

I'm wondering if maybe I can handle this differently, it really seems very repetitive.

Also what else can I add to the custom exceptions, right now they are just helping me handle separate errors appropriately, but I think I'm missing a way of getting more out of them.
Would adding the status code to them be a good idea?

I also read something about f strings when using logging and how it can impact the log message. The proper way is using this `logger.info("Text %s", data)` right?

try:
    response, status = auth_service.login(data)
    logger.info(f"Login Successful: {data['email']}")
    create_audit_log(data["user_id"], "Login", "Login Attempt Successful")
    return jsonify(response), status

except InvalidCredentials as e:
    logger.warning(f"Login Attempt Failed: {data['email']} - Invalid Credentials")
create_audit_log(data["user_id"], "Login", "Login Attempt Failed: Invalid Credentials")
    abort(401, description="Email Or Password Is Incorrect")

except DatabaseQueryError as e:
    logger.error(f"Login Attempt Failed: {data['email']} - {traceback.format_exc()}")

Useful automations using Slack, GitHub, Jira, Google tools and more

What My Project Does

Build relatively simple but useful automations in Python deployed on AutoKitteh using integrations to various applications such as GitHub, Slack, Jira, Google Calendar, Google sheets and more. For example:

Categorize new emails in your Gmail inbox using ChatGPT and send notifications to the appropriate Slack channel.
Automatically set JIRA ticket assignees based on Google Calendar events.
Scan your Copilot users and request them to free up licenses if not used for two weeks.
"Break Glass" - Using Slack to orchestrate a temporal elevation of privileges in AWS. A developer asks for privileges in Slack using Slash command, the IT team can approve on deny in Slack form. If approved, the workflow elevates privileges in AWS and reduces back after some period of time.

All written in Python, very short and easy to modify: https://github.com/autokitteh/kittehub

Target Audience 

Can be used by any developer or in production.

You can install the platform and run automation on your PC / Cloud or ask access for the cloud service.

Comparison

Workflows in no-code/low code platforms like Zapier, 8n8 and more. The main difference is that it's a developer first platform (write workflows in code), and it supports durable execution. What is means is that you can write

What’s the best way to integrate a shared PostGreSQL DB in development?

Hello,

We’re working on a large university group project which aims to develop a webapp with Django that will eventually be hosted on a virtual host provided by the university.

The server is running with Apache, Ubuntu Linux combined with a PostgreSQL DB.

So far we‘re in the development stage, programming locally on our devices, using Gitlab as version control. We currently use the default SQLite3 DB and upload it to Gitlab together with the code.

I already have access to the virtual host but haven’t played around with it much since that’s not really my expert field.

Now, I’ve read in several sources that it would be smarter to imitate the server tech stack, even in early development phases. That means, instead of using SQLite, we should be already using a PostgreSQL DB instead, even if we only work with dummy data so far.

Now here’s my question. What is the best practice to use a PostgreSQL DB, that synchronizes existing data between the different people involved in programming?

Obviously if I change something, i.e. adding a new user, I want my colleague to also have access to this newly created user the next time he makes changes to the project.

I googled this question

Header duplicate issue

So I'm trying to do a post request through curl to my flask server. I coded the headers into it. I coded the header "Connection" value to be "keep-alive"
And well it works but somehow its also showing another header called "Connection" with the value "close" How to solve this? Because It should only show keep-alive.

Research The Puzzling Failure of Multimodal AI Chatbots

https://preview.redd.it/ummnvenf1ahd1.png?width=2592&format=png&auto=webp&s=7115ba5de026ada17b0636ec2fa3c3151b3e5eb6

Chatbot models such as GPT-4o and Gemini have demonstrated impressive capabilities in understanding both images and texts. However, it is not clear whether they can emulate the general intelligence and reasoning ability of humans. To this end, PuzzleVQA is a new benchmark of multimodal puzzles to explore the limits of current models. As shown above, even models such as GPT-4V struggle to understand simple abstract patterns that a child could grasp.

https://preview.redd.it/7l5fmuys1ahd1.png?width=2716&format=png&auto=webp&s=337118dbc55230637cec1b08b90ae943746ddbb0

Despite the apparent simplicity of the puzzles, we observe surprisingly poor performance for current multimodal AI models. Notably, there remains a massive gap towards human performance. Thus, the natural question arises: what caused the failure of the models? To answer this question, we ran a bottleneck analysis by progressively providing ground-truth "hints" to the models, such as image captions for perception or reasoning explanations. As shown above, we found that leading models face key challenges in visual perception and inductive reasoning. This means that they are not able to accurately perceive the objects in the images, and they are also poor at recognizing the correct patterns.

Confused about the delete route in my blueprint

So I'm making a book tracking application based off the flask tutorial with a few extra features (like allowing the user to input their current page and calculating a completion status)

Right now, my delete function is acting funny. The blog delete function takes me to a route
"POST /3/delete HTTP/1.1"
My version returns
"POST /anonymous/to%20be%20deleted/update HTTP/1.1"
Notice how it the url_for function builds the route for update instead?
This is my book.delete function I have in the book blueprint....

@bp.route("/<book_author>/<book_title>/delete", methods=('POST',))
def delete(book_author, book_title):

#updated_book = get_author_book(book_title, book_author)
book_id = returnIdFromTitleAndAuthor(book_title, book_author)

print("book_id currently is: " + book_id['id'])

if book_id is None:
flash("No book of that title + author to delete.")

db = get_db()
db.execute("DELETE FROM books WHERE books.id = ?", (book_id['id'],))
db.commit()

#print("Book is outta here")
flash("Book Deleted")
return redirect(url_for("book.index"))

None of the print statements are showing, meaning the function isn't being called. Here is
