Enjoy this week's issue and if you celebrate it, Happy Thanksgiving! *Articles, Tutorials and Talks* Using a Raspberry Pi, Arduino and Python for disguise detection<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=eb6e3d11fb&e=3ddd8064cb> This post shows how to create a facial recognition security system that can detect usage of a variety of masks. The system uses the Raspberry Pi, the Pi camera module, an Arduino Nano and a thermal imaging sensor. Create an OAuth Server<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=aafb7d89b1&e=3ddd8064cb> A guide on creating an OAuth server, both OAuth 1 and OAuth 2, in a flavor of Flask with the help of Flask-OAuthlib. Efficient Django QuerySet Use<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=38289b0a56&e=3ddd8064cb> This talk is about advanced use of Django's QuerySet API based on lessons learned at Counsyl. You'll learn how to debug, optimize and use the QuerySet API efficiently. The main examples focus on demystifying how QuerySet maps to SQL and how seemingly simple Python code, presumably fast O(1) queries, can result in unacceptably long runtime and often O(N) or worse queries. Solutions are provided for keeping your Python code simple and RDMS use performant. Building a Flask Blog: Part 1<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=5015e628a3&e=3ddd8064cb> The part one of the Flask Tutorial that shows how to build a Blog from the scratch using tools such as Flask-SQLAlchemy, WTForms, Flask-WTF, Flask-Migrate, WebHelpers to bootstrap the basic application. and PostgreSQL. Building a Flask Blog: Part2<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=328841f8f9&e=3ddd8064cb> In this part of the Flask-Blog we will create all the basic blog features like displaying the posts, querying by category and author name and we will mould our relationships to a bit to make it more complete. What do Tim O'Reilly, Lady Gaga, and Marissa Mayer all have in common?<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=b259a2a8ca&e=3ddd8064cb> This IPython Notebook provides a compilation of the sample code for Mining the Social Web's multi-part series on exploring Twitter influence. The code in this notebook harvests follower IDs and the corresponding account profiles for arbitrary accounts of interest along with some initial exercises to get you busy analyzing the data. We'll applly the same "Aspire, Acquire, Analyze, Summarize" data science framework that has been presented in previous posts as a guide through this notebook.

It provides application infrastructure services to application components running in a distributed system and does so using two well-known, powerful messaging patterns: Remote Procedure Calls and Publish & Subscribe.

It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs. importd<http://pythonweekly.us2.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=e2e180baf855ac797ef407fc7&id=122d68a12e&e=3ddd8064cb> Django based mini framework inspired from sinatra.

Also, Emil Vaughan shows us how he is automating the server setup at Citymapper by running Salt in 'masterless' mode, an easy way to get started with Salt.
