# An extremely hacky bit of code that takes SVG files output by Blender
# and splits all the multi-node line paths into single line paths to make
# editing easier. Example: A right-angle path is now two lines that meet.
#
# Blender has a habit of outputting really _weird_ paths that are annoying
# to edit on geometric shapes, and also outputs straight lines that are
# made up of many smaller straight line nodes. This code also merges those
# mini-line lines into single lines to stop you throwing your computer out
# of the window when you try and work with the SVG.

"""Pipecleaner is a tool for validating concourse pipelines.

Someone rewrote this in go because "it's not python 3 compatible",
so now they have a version 5x longer and less comprehensible. This
is a "port" to python3, via the 2to3 tool. It took 600ms to do.

It can check for the following issues:

Recently @alexparsons asked Democracy Club what the earliest local authority website was. Nobody knew, but we had fun looking at pages from 1996.

I pulled up my old IPv4 reverse DNS scan of .gov.uk domains, and the official list of .gov.uk domains, then queried the internet archive for each one.

The list below is every UK Government website sorted by the first time the Internet Archive saved a copy.

The links go to the archived version of the site at that time. Expect to get nostalgic. - @jonty

For the record, that was passed unanimously.	https://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2017-01-30a.705.0&s=speaker%3A10040#g751.0
I call the Front Bench speakers to wind up. If each could take no more than 10 minutes, or thereabouts, that would be excellent.	https://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2017-01-30a.705.0&s=speaker%3A10040#g742.1
That was a splendid example, to be followed. It is not for me to comment on the content of the hon. Lady’s speech, but the length was admirable.	https://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2017-01-30a.705.0&s=speaker%3A10040#g733.0
Order. There are—four, five, six—nine Members wishing to speak. Let me explain to the House that each of the Front-Bench speakers should have an opportunity to speak for 10 minutes or thereabouts, and the Minister should conclude by 8.59 pm, because the right hon. Member for Doncaster North (Edward Miliband) has the right to reply at that point. We must work on that basis. If everyone speaks for three or four minutes, we shall be f
