How To Limit Your Possibilities

So, this was going to be a post about the Python module, subprocess. I'm a big fan of subprocess and there are a lot of problems that are easier to solve by using it. We reduce thirteen distinct facilities into one class. We reduce a diverse ecosystem of interfaces into one, uniform interface. The subprocess module is good, both by itself and as a symbol for what Python stands for. I won't be writing my original post about subprocess.

It isn't that subprocess isn't important, or that I don't think I can express myself properly, but that it brought up something else I should write about right now: What should I write about?

Is this a blog about software development or is this a blog about Python development? Does it need to be only one? I'm looking for my direction here. I'm not going to stretch this out, because if I do, you won't read it. And truth be told, I want you to read it. I want you to enjoy reading what I write. At heart, I am a writer. I take no shame in admitting that I love watching my graph in Google Analytics rise on every post I make. But, this is also about expressing myself, as a developer. And that is no more a Python developer than a software developer. I can't abstract everything I write.

The final answer to what my direction is? I don't have one, and that's just fine.
