I see Bible Gateway has again published their top 100 most read verses of the year. Charting the chapters in Bible Rocket shows a fairly heart-warming distribution. #Bible

Bible Rocket can index #Bible references in English and French text, and link them to your preferred translations and sources on the Bible Gateway website. It's a little demo of mine for the `refspy` #python library.

In the works this week: an interactive demo for the new multilingual version of github.com/eukras/refspy.
(A hat tip to github.com/a2ohm for the French language file.)

A shout-out to one of my favourite little #Python libraries, the `airium` HTML builder. Nicer than templating, IMO, assuming you don't need templating for working with designers. #PythonDev #Airium

It's interesting to chart out what parts of the Bible different credal statements or articles tend to emphasise. Here's the Danvers Statement (1987, left) on Complementarianism, and @margmowczko.bsky.social's 'The Biblical Basis of Egalitarianism in 500 Words' (2022, right). #Christian #Theology

I've been making a demo/visualiser for Refspy (a Bible reference indexer in Python), and pasting in random Wikipedia articles. It's a good test. They often mix together modern English (2 Cor 7:21-22, 24), archaic English (2 Cor. vii. 21-22, 24), and modern European (2 Cor 7,21-22.24) formats.

I think, maybe 90% of the time, I'd rather have the tailwind @apply statement than the entirety of Figma. Interactive prototyping, but stable and without the double-handling.
