I've been trying to learn CSS. I went through the relevant sections of Colt Steele's Web Bootcamp. It is mostly focused on Bootstrap, which disappointed me a bit. So I went through MDN to learn Flexbox and CSS Grid, which seemed like a better alternative. The fundamentals are easy enough, but when I try to make a layout everything gets mixed in my head (even though I have the documentation open at all times). The impression I get is that modern CSS is not one thing, but a bunch of little things that resemble each other in a confusing way. It's hard to infer stuff and there are gotchas everywhere. I know this is not a programming language, but it is at least programming-related. Learning CSS feels more like learning English than a technology: you must accept that it's not a cohesive system, but rather the culmination of a long historical process full of random developments.
I tried getting back to Bootstrap, but then I have to override a bunch of stuff I don't even know is there.
I'm having a lot of trouble trying to put something very simple together. I just wanna leave that behind and go back to my beloved Python.
I did not want this to be a rant, but it is now a rant. So be it :P

I'm looking to get a couple of remote controlled dimmer sockets for a quite specific use case (heat lamps in a tortoise enclosure), and I'd like to control them directly from a Raspberry Pi. I've found a couple of decent looking fairly generic options - examples from Trust and TKB - and there seem to be several appropriate radio modules, either USB or GPIO.
Detecting and pairing with devices seems (hopefully) straightforward. My sticking point is trying to figure out how standardised the actual messaging is; there seem to be several brands of hub and device that can be used interchangeably, but a few that can't. In my case, of course, the RasPi will be taking the position of the hub and speaking to the devices directly.
I'm having trouble finding reliable info on whether a command like "dim to 70%", or "read output power" will be the same across all devices, whether it will follow some kind of standard but it may be one of several competing formats, or whether it's completely proprietary.
Any insight on how easy it is to programatically talk to these things would be very much appreciated!

In this thread, people have been starting to post and discuss their solutions to this year's Advent of Code problems.
To help make this easier to organize and discuss on Tildes, I've decided to create a sub-group devoted to it: ~comp.advent_of_code. We can keep this sub-group around for a couple of months or so, and this way we can split into separate topics for each day's problems, people getting started later can still get involved easily, and it will also make it simple for others that aren't interested to avoid the posts (just don't subscribe).
I've automatically subscribed everyone that interacted with that original topic (by commenting in it, or voting on the topic itself or any of the comments), but nobody else. So if you're interested in participating in Advent of Code or discussing it, please subscribe to the sub-group. Posts from the sub-group won't be shown to logged-out users by default either, so any logged-out users that want to observe will need to visit the sub-group directly (or you're welcome to email me and request an invite so you can register and subscribe).
I'll also be setting up scheduled posts to post automatically for each day's puzzle and possibly some other things, but we can discuss all of that inside the sub-group.
Edit: All of the topics have now been moved back into ~comp under the "advent of code.2019" tag, and the group deleted.
