-# List RDS Snapshots With Matching Identifier Prefix

-I'm working on a script that manually creates a snapshot which it will then
-restore to a temporary database that I can scrub and dump. The snapshots that

-defining prefix (`dev-snapshot-`). Besides the few snapshots created by this
-script, there are tons of automated snapshots that RDS creates for
-backup/recovery purposes.
-
-I want to list any snapshots that have been created by the script. I can do

-```bash

-those automated snapshots. The `--query` both filters to any snapshots whose
-identifier `?starts_with` the prefix `dev-snapshot-` and then refines the

-# Display All Git Log Entries In My Local Timezone
-
-I tend to work with remote teams distributed across across multiple time zones.
-In that context, it is important to have an awareness of what time zone each
-person is operating in and to communicate clearly around that.
-
-When looking at the output for `git log` on a distributed team, the timestamps
-for each entry can be all over the place. If I want to understand when something
-was committed, I have to look at the time as well as the time zone offset and
-mentally translate it to my own time zone.
-
-There is a `git config` option to alleviate this issue by having `git log`
-convert and display all timestamps into your local time zone.
-
-```bash
-$ git config --global log.date rfc-local
-```
-
-Running that will add this entry to your _global_ git config file:
-
-```
-[log]
-	date = rfc-local

-# Exclude A Directory During A Command
-
-Many of the git commands we use, such as `git add`, `git restore`, etc., target
-files and paths relative to the current directory. This is typically exactly
-what we want, to stage and unstage and so forth the files and directories in
-front of us.
-
-I recently ran into a situation where I needed to restore a small subset of
-changes. At the same time, I had a massive number of auto-generated files
-recording HTTP interactions (hundreds of files, modified on the working tree).
-I wanted to run a `git restore`, but wading through all those HTTP recording
-files was not feasible.
-
-I needed to exclude those files. They all belonged to a `spec/cassettes`
-directory. I could exclude them with a _pathspec_ magic signature pattern which
-is used to alter and limit the paths in a git command.
-
-A _pathspec_ magic signature is a special pattern made up of a `:` followed by
-some signature declaring what the pattern means.
-
-The `(exclude)`, `!`, and `^` magic signatures all mean the same thing —
-exclude. So, we can exclude a directory from a `git restore` command like so:
-
-```bash
-$ git restore --patch -- . ':!spec/cassettes'

-
-We've employed two pathspec patterns here. The first, `.`, scopes everything to
-the current directory. The second, `':!spec/cassettes'` excludes everything in

-
-Several Git commands offer a `--no-verify` flag which can skip running the hook
-associated with that command.

-- `git commit --no-verify` (skips `pre-commit` and `commit-msg` hooks)
-- `git push --no-verify` (skips `pre-push` hook)
-- `git merge --no-verify` (skips `pre-merge-commit` hook)
-- `git am --no-verify` (skips `applypatch-msg` and `pre-applypatch` hooks)

-If I'm using the `--json` flag, then I can add in the `--jq` flag to apply a

-# Access Most Recent Return Value In REPL
-
-One of my favorite features of Ruby's `irb` and `pry` are that you can use `_`
-to reference the most recent return value. Often as we use an interpreter or
-REPL, we end up with _intermediate_ values. That is, we've execute some kind of
-statement which returned a value and we now want to use that resulting value in
-our next statement. Python also supports `_`.
-
-Let's say I've run a statement that took a while to process, but I forgot to
-assign it to a variable. Instead of re-running the whole thing, I can create a
-variable that references the previous return value using `_`.
-
-```python
->>> BytePairEncoding.train_bpe(long_text)
-{'merge_rules': [...], 'vocab': {...}}
->>> result = _
->>> list(result.keys())

->>> result['vocab'][_]

-# Argument Defaults Are Evaluated When Function Is Defined
-
-When you define a function with any arguments that have default values, those
-default values are evaluated and stored at the time that the function is defined
-(i.e. when it is evaluated by the interpreter). This might feel counter
-intuitive if you are coming from another language, like Ruby, where these kinds
-of defaults are evaluated at call time. This is unremarkable for scalar values
-like `4` or `"fallback"`. It's much more interesting when your defaults are
-function calls.
-
-What if our default is something like `datetime.now()`?
-
-Here I've defined a `Timer` class that has a `start` and `stop` method. The
-`stop` method can be called with a specific `datetime` value otherwise it falls
-back to `datetime.now()` -- but when is _now_?
-
-```python
-from datetime import datetime, timezone
-import time
-
-
-class Timer:
-    def __init__(self):
-        self._start = None
-        self._stop = None
-
-    def start(self):
-        self._start = datetime.now(timezone.utc)
-        self._stop = None
-
-    def stop(self, at=datetime.now(timezone.utc)):
-        print(f"now: {datetime.now(timezone.utc)}")
-        print(f" at: {at}")
-        self._stop = at
-
-        elapsed = self._stop - self._start
-        return elapsed
-```
-
-Here I instantiate a timer, call `start`, sleep for 5 seconds, and then call
-`stop`.
-
-```python
-timer = Timer()
-timer.start()
-
-time.sleep(5)
-
-print(f"Elapsed: {timer.stop()}")
-```
-
-Here is what gets printed to `stdout`:
-
-```
-now: 2026-05-22 00:45:05.654878+00:00
- at: 2026-05-22 00:45:00.649699+00:00
-Elapsed: -1 day, 23:59:59.999875
-```
-
-Notice that the actual _now_ (when the `stop` method is running) is about 5
-seconds after the value of `at`. That is because `at`, which takes on the
-default argument value, is `datetime.now()` as evaluated at the time the
-function is interpreted. It is for that same reason that `self._stop` ends up
-being just a hair earlier than the call to `start` which sets `self._start`.
-Which explains why the _elapsed_ time is a negative value.
-
-To avoid this awkwardness all together, set the default as `None` and then
-override `None` at the start of the function:
-
-```python
-def stop(self, at = None):
-    if at == None:
-        at = datetime.now(timezone.utc)

-# Check Precondition Before Click Arg Parsing
-
-When setting up various [Click](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/stable/)
-subcommands with options, I ran into an issue with the order of some validation
-checks. I was putting the same precondition validation logic at the beginning of
-several subcommands. I was also putting callback validations on specific options
-to those subcommands. Ideally the option validations could rely on those
-precondition validations. However, the option callbacks run before anything in
-the body of the subcommands.
-
-The solution was to move those preconditions out of the subcommand body
-(simplifying the subcommand) and into a `click.Command` subclass.
-
-To demonstrate that, I'll first show the `click.Command` subclass:
-
-```python
-class RequireActiveSessionCommand(click.Command):
-    def parse_args(self, ctx, args):
-        if ctx.obj.active_session is None:
-            msg = "No active session being tracked. Start a session first."
-            raise click.UsageError(msg)
-
-        return super().parse_args(ctx, args)
-```
-
-The only thing this subclass overrides is `parse_args` where it gets ahead of
-the standard arg parsing logic to first check the precondition. In this case, I
-check that there is an active session. If there isn't, then I can raise a
-`click.UsageError`. Otherwise, it delegates back to the super-class
-implementation of `parse_args`.
-
-This subclass then gets used for the commands that need to enforce this
-precondition. Two prime examples of that are the `stop` and `cancel` subcommands.
-
-```python
-@cli.command(cls=RequireActiveSessionCommand)
-@click.option("--at", help='Hours previous to end the timer, e.g. "2 hours ago"', callback=validate_stop_at)
-@pass_cli
-def stop(cli_ctx: CliContext, at: datetime) -> None:
-    # ... implementation omitted
-
-@cli.command(cls=RequireActiveSessionCommand)
-@pass_cli
-def cancel(cli_ctx: CliContext):
-    # ... implementation omitted
-```
-
-Other subcommands, like `start` and `status` that don't need to enforce this
-precondition use the `@cli.command()` decorator without passing in a custom
-subclass.
-
-This example is pulled directly from [this commit](https://github.com/jbranchaud/py-vmt/commit/505109b7a4013e05f085cded666c6b1ac7c3c250)

-scenarios I have in mind.
-
-While working on [`py-vmt`](https://github.com/jbranchaud/py-vmt), I started by
-writing a big single test function with a sequence of variable assignments and
-`assert` statements. Here's my starting point:
-
-```python
-def test_format_time_delta_everything():

-    assert "1m30s" == format_time_delta(one_minute + thirty_seconds)
-
-    # bunch of minutes and seconds
-    delta = timedelta(minutes=24, seconds=8)
-    assert "24m8s" == format_time_delta(delta)

-
-    # more than one hour
-    assert "1h24m" == format_time_delta(one_hour + delta)
-```
-
-I knew I would eventually need to break it up into individual test functions,
-but I couldn't bare to start there because it seemed quite repetitive.
-
-There is another way to approach this without all the duplication. Pytest comes
-with [a "parametrize" decorator](https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/example/parametrize.html). This is
-used to define a set of test data (and expected values) that will get passed
-one-by-one to the test function as parameters.
-
-```python
-@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
-    (timedelta(seconds=30), "30s"),
-    (timedelta(seconds=60), "1m"),
-    (timedelta(seconds=90), "1m30s"),
-    (timedelta(minutes=24, seconds=8), "24m8s"),
-    (timedelta(hours=1), "1h"),

-])
-def test_format_time_delta(input, expected):
-    assert format_time_delta(input) == expected
-```
-
-I ditch all of the duplication this way. I define a list of tuples that
-represent my input values and expected values. Then the body of the test can be
-minimal. And I get a separate test execution for each parameter tuple making it
-easier to see fine-grained pass/fail results.

-class implementing this protocol will define the implementation of those
-functions.
-
-Now, my `CliContext` class, which needs some kind of `SessionRepository` to

-# Get Absolute Seconds From `timedelta` Object
-
-The [`timedelta` object provided by
-`datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#timedelta-objects)
-is a useful built-in concept for representing a duration of time.
-
-```python
->>> from datetime import timedelta
->>> diff = timedelta(hours=1, minutes=1, seconds=6)
->>> diff.seconds
-3666
-```
-
-It is pretty minimal though. There are only a couple things you can inspect
-about it -- `days`, `seconds` (as I did in the snippet above), and
-`microseconds`.
-
-And perhaps that is enough to hint at the issue I recently ran into with it --
-specifically that you can access both `days` and `seconds`.
-
-Let's look at what happens when I have a `timedelta` with more than a day worth
-of seconds.
-
-```python
->>> diff = timedelta(seconds=(3600 * 24 + 1))
->>> diff.seconds
-1
->>> diff.days
-1
-```
-
-I thought `seconds` was going to produce `86401` instead of `1`. The reason is
-because any amount of duration over a day gets converted into the `days` value
-and its the remaining time smaller than a day that is represented by `seconds`.
-
-In my [original implementation of
-`format_time_delta`](https://github.com/jbranchaud/py-vmt/blob/c14eaa56cf5f5c6d0120a95f04f95a6c87443e1c/src/py_vmt/time_helpers.py#L11-L14),
-I was trying to build a relative time string by converting `seconds` into hours,
-minutes, and seconds. That approach falls apart as soon as the delta is greater
-than a day.
-
-```python
-def format_time_delta(diff) -> str:
-    hours, remainder = divmod(diff.seconds, 3600)
-    minutes, remainder = divmod(remainder, 60)
-    seconds = remainder
-
-    # ...
-```
-
-Instead, I needed to reach for [the `total_seconds()` function](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta.total_seconds).
-This gives "the total number of seconds contained in the duration" and is
-described as equivalent to `diff / timedelta(seconds=1)`.
-
-Here is the [updated version of `format_time_delta`](https://github.com/jbranchaud/py-vmt/blob/ec1875a9d73552f5481e3945ddf522e94d0cc018/src/py_vmt/time_helpers.py?plain=1#L11-L16):

-    hours, remainder = divmod(total_seconds, 3600)

-# Iterate First N Items From Enumerable
-
-As I'm working through the 2nd chapter of [Build a Large Language Model (from
-scratch)](https://still.visualmode.dev/blogmarks/227), I came across a code
-example processing a dictionary of words. This example used a for loop to print
-out each dictionary entry until an index of 50 was reached on then it did a
-`break`.
-
-This struck me as an odd way to grab and process N items from a list. I did some
-searching and found `itertools` which provides
-[`islice`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.islice).
-
-```python
-from itertools import islice
-
-# preprocess words from a file into a word list
-all_words = ... # not shown here
-
-vocab = {token: integer for integer, token in enumerate(all_words)}
-for item in islice(enumerate(vocab.items()), 50):
-    print(item)
-```
-
-The `islice` function is a better approach because the intention (to grab the
-first 50 things) is encoded in the function call rather than buried in a loop
-body. It also has equivalent memory efficiency to the original example because
-it lazily processes the list of `vocab` items.

-using any auto-formatter up to this point on this project, I can expect the diff
-to be significant.
-
-I can start with a dry run using the `--check` flag. This gives a summary of how

-I'm using git and I have a clean working copy, so there is no real harm in just
-going for it either.
-
-```bash
-❯ uv run ruff format
-6 files reformatted, 3 files left unchanged

-
-That makes all the formatting changes and I can use `git diff` to browse through
-them before eventually committing them.
