I've spent the day writing a blog post and tweaking Toad. 🐸

It is not vaporware! I have pics and it did happen.

I'm planning on making the repo public on Thursday. Little nervous TBH. I've been working on this for 6 months. But I have had good feedback, and I've collaborated with some big names in AI to bring you this software.

Mark the date. Thursday 18th December, 2025.

There's another researcher, Zhengyu Liu, who's been finding CPython crashes (mostly use-after-free) at breakneck speed (19 in 5 days!): https://github.com/python/cpython/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20author%3Ajackfromeast

Not sure about what technique they're using, but their site states they they favor "leveraging program analysis approaches to detect/exploit/patch vulnerabilities in real-world complex applications and systems".

Their reports are comprehensive, with great presentation and details.

DjangoCon Europe 2025 in Dublin 🇮🇪

Looking back at DjangoCon Europe 2025, a few months later, this was a really good way to start the in-person conference season ✨

I was there as a speaker and a DSF board member: a talk on mentoring in Djangonaut Space, a short PyCon Italia mention during the lightning talks, and many good hallway conversations 🎉

Full recap here 👇

There's a researcher, Jiang Yuancheng, who's doing a great work finding CPython crashes and memory leaks: https://github.com/python/cpython/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20author%3AYuanchengJiang

They've come up with a very clever idea for a new way of fuzzing, made a fine tool out of it, and are reaping great results.

Fuzzing can be a diminishing returns endeavor: you only have so many bugs to find. Their approach has shown itself to cover different areas and kinds of issues well, as shown by their track record.

#CPython #Python #Fuzzer #Fuzzing #fusil

GoPLS integration breaking in ViM after upgrade to Fedora because of subtle differences in #Python 3.14 was definitely not on my bingo for today.

YouCompleteMe uses the following Python code:

urllib.parse.urljoin('file:', urllib.request.pathname2url('/path/to/project'))

This produces file:///path/to/project on Python 3.10 but file:/path/to/project on 3.14. Now I'm really curious why.

In fact, it's purely within urljoin. Despite having changes in 3.14, pathname2url does not seem to be involved. This has different outputs on #Python 3.10 and 3.14:

import urllib.parse; print(urllib.parse.urljoin('file:', '/some/path'))

It's the last week to submit a #Python #security talk to #PyConUS, submit by Friday December 19th!

If there is a Pythonista in your community that has made meaningful impact and contributions but don't identify as a PyLady? Great news, you can nominate them for other awards and recognitions in the Python community, such as PSF Community Service Award and PSF Fellow.

Is there a PyLady that has made meaningful impact in your community?
Nominate them for the Outstanding PyLady Award as your way to say thanks.

People don't magically receive award and recognitions. Someone need to submit the nomination. Why not you?

I've just submitted several nominations to people I admire. Now it's your turn.

Ideas on who you can nominate:
Community leader, speaker, educator, open source contributor, mentor, blogger, volunteer, etc

After my talk at @gnome Asia Summit, I’ve published the source code of Jollpi, a Python-based text editor I’m rewriting with a modern stack.

Built with Python 3, @GTK 4 and GtkSourceView 5, using a modern async architecture and standard Python packaging (pyproject.toml, pip).
It installs cleanly and integrates like a regular Linux desktop app.

Feel free to try it and share feedback.

A VS Code screenshot of an extremely long line of syntax-highlighted code.

@joelle Something like:

uv pip install --resolution=lowest -e .

Or --resolution=lowest-direct to only use the lowest for your direct deps, letting transitive deps float.

https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/resolution/

I don't think you can tell it to use the lowest Python mentioned in the toml, but you can hardcode it:

uv pip install --python 3.10 --resolution=lowest -e .

#Python #uv

#Python folks, let's say I want to configure a CI build (perhaps a Github action) that uses the *MINIMUM* version of Python and dependencies specified in a pyproject.toml file for the test. I.E. to ensure that features not present in those versions aren't used in new code added to a library.

Is there already an easy way to do this?

Headed to Japan for the next month, and would love to catch up with anyone in the #python or #writethedocs community that is around!

Für ne #Python/#Flask-Webapp, muss ich da die beiden Ordner `flask_session` und `__pycache__` unbedingt per #git tracken, oder sollte ich die sogar via .gitignore aus dem Tracking rausnehmen?

I also wrote a second post that puts together my whole DjangoCon US 2025 experience.

It is a timeline of the live posts I shared here during the conference, with photos and short notes from talks, hallway conversations, and community moments.

https://www.paulox.net/2025/10/05/my-djangocon-us-2025/

#Django #DjangoCon #Community #Python

DjangoCon US is also, and maybe mostly, about people.

Meeting in person folks you usually talk to online, having long conversations between talks, sharing meals, and spending time together without any agenda.

This human side is what keeps Open Source healthy and sustainable over time. It is one of the reasons why these moments matter so much to me.

Looking back at DjangoCon US, these photos bring back many great moments.

I was there as a speaker and as a member of the Django Software Foundation board. I gave my talk and spent some time on stage sharing updates about the work of the DSF, from governance to long-term sustainability.

In the end, conferences like this are about people, trust, and things built together over time.

Just released: Python 3.14.0 release candidate 2! 🚀🐍

🪄 This was planned for 2025-08-26, but we fixed a bug that required bumping the magic number stored in bytecode (.pyc) files

🪄 This means .pyc files created for rc1 will be recompiled for rc2

🪄 The ABI isn’t changing

🪄 Wheels built for rc1 should be fine for rc2, rc3 and 3.14.x

🤖 Did I mention Android binaries?

🏆 Bonus: We also released an early Python 3.13.7!

My first official #Python package 🎉
#dirval can now be installed easily via:

pip install dirval

It is a core library of the #InfinitoNexus ecosystem and is used by backup, validation, and infrastructure tools to reliably detect directory structure changes.

Thanks to #pkgmgr, I can now release and publish packages much faster and more consistently.

Released under the #MIT License.

#Python friends, you got any favorite libraries to help introspect large import trees? (use cases: providing feedback during the early import-the-world phase of loading a monorepo; determining how to extract internal dependencies or resolve cycles; etc)

My fallback is to just whip something up with sys.meta_path finders, but smells like the kinda use case where there might be a nice handy lib already on PyPI.

I’m using Immich to manage large photo collections from community events (face detection, duplicate removal, smart search) and it’s great 📸

What I’m missing is automatic photo culling / best-shot selection: choosing the best photo among similar ones (group shots, event sessions, same subject). 🧞‍♂️

Any experience with open-source, Python-based solutions for this? or projects to recommend? 🐍

Installation view from the 2019 Venice Art Biennale: a large wall covered with a grid of framed black-and-white photographs. The frames are evenly spaced and visually similar, with no single image standing out, creating a repetitive and uniform visual pattern.

I have a #firewall ruleset defined for all of my VMs, but it always bothered me that they didn’t share the same syntax, formatting, ordering, etc. I figured I could reduce the complexity and solve all of these inconsistencies by modularizing my firewall rules. Ideally, I wanted something like:

```
import enable_ssh_in
```

which would inject the corresponding rule fragment into the ruleset. Some modules would also need light post-processing such as filling in port numbers, selecting protocols, and similar adjustments.

Unfortunately, #IPF can’t handle rule imports, so the next best option is to pre-bake the full ruleset and hand the final result to IPF.

My first attempt was with m4, but the result was messy and triggered my #OCD. Then I tried doing it in #Python, and the outcome is much cleaner.

Now I can write a simple text file like: https://paste.omnios.org/?97e42d30483c83fb#DNE4ir94tFsVxiFmngBafVFQoYsHYVbJCGMx6JWBT1me
Feed it through my macro processor, and it generates this: https://paste.omnios.org/?5db469ba780c5f70#8jd9kiy4GDTcjTwQyQtWsLvWQ3YFEW7UYYuyZqfnDo8U

What do you think about this?

Looks like I have a solution in #python for the second part of day 10.

The code is very much NOT-pythonesque, as I have tried to prepare it for the translation to #TurboPascal. This solution also shouldn't need much memory space at all.

It remains to be seen how long the 8088 will need to solve the few systems with a very large amount of combinations of free variables. But that will be for the weekend.

🌕 Django 6.0 重大更新：範本局部元件與背景任務框架
➤ 深入解析 Django 6.0 的範本局部元件與任務框架技術細節
✤ https://adamj.eu/tech/2025/12/03/django-whats-new-6.0/
Django 6.0 重磅登場，為這款 20 歲的 Python 網頁框架帶來了諸多新功能。其中最引人注目的包括範本語言新增的「局部元件」(partials) 功能，讓開發者能更輕鬆地封裝和重複使用範本中的小片段，並大幅簡化了程式碼的維護。此外，Django 6.0 還引入了內建的「任務框架」(Tasks framework)，讓開發者能夠將非 HTTP 請求週期的程式碼（如寄送郵件、處理資料）卸載到背景工作執行，解決了長期以來 Django 在背景任務處理方面的不足，可望藉由第三方套件提供更完善的解決方案。
+ 太棒了！局部元件聽起來能省下大量重複的範本程式碼，尤其在維護大型專案時肯定很有幫助。期待它的廣泛應用。
+ 終於有內建的任務框架了！之前都得仰賴 Celery 這些複雜

I’ve finally retired the old cron + sh setup for the weather bots. It served us well, but it had a major flaw: if I rebooted the server while it was posting, the job just died halfway. If the server was down during a scheduled slot, the forecast was lost forever.

So, I wrote a custom Python daemon to run inside the FreeBSD Jails.

• It’s stateful now. If a crash happens at city 15 of 50, it resumes exactly there on reboot.

• If the server naps/is rebooting during a scheduled run, the bot realizes it missed a slot and runs immediately upon waking up.

@CGM I see good in this: new and useful powers for #Python.

I see bad in this: a thing we knew about for a long time, present elsewhere, why so long coming?

I see neutral in this: things that can be provided by libraries instead of directly in the language should absolutely start in a library. If they earn a spot in the language itself, great.

I see sad in this: these words make it sound like #TCL is ahead and Python is behind overall. That doesn’t match my opinion or personal experience. Absolutely agree on this particular feature. And also I have stated many times "there is no best language", just choices more or less cost-effective for the problem at hand.

For the problems I’ve faced, with the tools I’ve had available, Python has been a more cost-effective choice than TCL the majority of the time. From your words, I took that you prefer TCL. Nothing wrong with that!

For some reason, #HelixEditor keeps complaining about the #LSP (using both #Pyrefly and #Ruff, as usual). I'm concerned I haven't set things up right somehow, but I don't yet see where I've gone wrong.

Once this is working, further days will be easy. At least ... I hope!

I'd be happy to work for cheap on any paid projects while I look for a job -- provided they fit my skillset. I'm great with Python and machine learning, I've worked on ML research and developed novel ML algorithms, and I also have tons of experience working with automated file transfers, databases, automated Excel reporting, and probably other things you may find useful. Just ask! I take pride in doing quality work, and I'm a really clever monkey. :)

After thought (thought I didn’t plan to put into it), I don’t think "NULL coalescing" and "NULL chaining" needs to be built in to the #ProgrammingLanguage, and here’s why:

* If you’re getting just one thing, the getter can take an optional default result value. #Python works like this in `getattr`, `.get`, and things of that nature. Having an operator for this is fine, but it seems obvious you don’t **need** the language to do it for you.
* If you’re walking down a long uncertain chain, I have two arguments:
* Knowing the path that leads down into the object to the specific thing you want kinda sounds like an #Encapsulation violation. Why do you know so much about the internals of this object. If this deep property is important, maybe it’s part of the interface of the top-level thing. Maybe this is just bad design.
* Diving deeply involves lots of possibilities: possible defaults, actual methods of finding the named thing (allow inheritance? Is it an attribute? Is it an element of an array? Etc), did you want to just stop or raise an exception?Does saying what you want really come out to a simple, clean, understandable, one-line, expression?

Maybe I’m biased because I don’t have these operators in my day-to-day language; and also can’t remember hitting this situation. And I can certainly see such operators could be helpful. I’m not a language designer. But from my actual experience, in this case, the juice just isn’t worth the squeeze.

#NullCoalescing #NullChaining #LanguageDesign

Il existe des solutions pour ça et j'en ai trouvé 3 ou 4 sur des dépôts #github. Cela dit, et après en avoir commencé à tester, j'ai réalisé que je faisais fausse route et que ce cas d'usage ne nécessitait pas de déployer un #conteneur #Docker (les solutions trouvées sont toutes déployées avec ça (et ça marche très bien)).

Dans la pratique, ce #script #python de moins de 2 Ko (il va grossir un peu je précise) me rend un service comparable à celui délivré via une image Docker de plus de 20 Mo.

I am so excited for another #AdventOfCode (https://adventofcode.com/2025/). I never get tired of writing code to solve new and different problems. What an amazing amount of work Eric Wastl puts into this. What an amazing thing he creates … year after year after year.

Thank you, Eric!

This year my plan is to solve in both #Python and #Rust. I want to do them all (a tall order even though Eric is cutting back). i want my work to be exemplary: something others might learn from. I want to make sure I don’t short-change my other responsibilities by spending too much time on this. And I have one final issue: by the time evening roles around, I suck. I need to figure out what the best time of day is to squeeze this in!

@travisshears To be fair a whole bunch of standards and tools solved that, piece by piece, over the last 5-10 years. #Python packaging became good even before uv. The benefits of uv are that it's fast, and it combines the functionality of a bunch of other tools that came before it into one program.

0.2.0 of django-new has been released. 🎉

`uvx django-new [--api] [--web] [--worker] name [folder]`

- Basic project and app creation for APIs, websites, and worker use cases.
- Optionally create minimal applications similar to DEP-15 (aka, all files in one folder).
- Slightly opinionated folder structure to get you going, but no major decisions that force you into a corner.
- Only includes a few lukewarm takes.

django-new is designed to be used with uvx or pipx. uvx django-new [--api] [--web] [--worker] name [folder] django-new has some opinions about the folder structure and what files are most useful for certain use cases. For example, config is used to store "project-level" files like settings.py. The --api, --web, and --worker flags can be used as an additional modifier to create a specific type of application. Along with the typical Django files, django-new also creates a few typically used files (if they do not already exist) when creating a new project: - .env - Environment variables - .gitignore - git ignore patterns - pyproject.toml - Python project configuration (PEP 621 compliant) - README.md - Project documentation Create a new API uvx django-new --api name [folder]

I've finally started to take a look at Black - the very famous code formatter for #Python.

I really don't like what it does. When I compare my original code with the formatted one, every single change is visually unfortunate imho. It wastes a lot of space compared to the original, and nothing gets prettier or more readable.

But I still love the idea of having one universal, widely-adopted standard formatting, in general. A lot.

... so I'll go with it now?!?!

@wakame I have been thinking about this more and more: make another #ansible frontend to accept a more #python like language. After https://en.osm.town/@mdione/115629737380378014 I started reading Ansible's code. Nothing is going to come out of it any time soon, tho :)

As a kind of coding vacation, the last couple of days I spent time working on my programming language, #Mifflin, and I've gotten it to the point where it can process and understand anything in the language spec, which is quite a lot.

Too bad it can't *run* anything just yet.

Looking forward to a day when my shell scripts aren't a debate of #Bash vs #Python vs #PowerShell.

#Python #PEP101

Alt...

A big red X over the following text from PEP 101, and it doesn't all fit in the alt text: - If this is a **final** release: - Add the new version to the `"Python documentation by version" page <https://www.python.org/doc/versions/>`__ and remove the current version from any 'in development' section. - For 3.X.Y, edit all the previous X.Y releases' page(s) to point to the new release. This includes the content field of the ``Downloads -> Releases`` entry for the release:: Note: Python 3.x.(y-1) has been superseded by `Python 3.x.y </downloads/release/python-3xy/>`_. And, for those releases having separate release page entries (phasing these out?), update those pages as well, e.g. ``download/releases/3.x.y``:: Note: Python 3.x.(y-1) has been superseded by `Python 3.x.y </download/releases/3.x.y/>`_. - Update the `"Current pre-release testing versions" page <https://www.python.org/download/pre-releases/>`__. - If you're releasing a version before *3.x.0*, add it to this page, removing the previous pre-release of version *3.x* as needed. - If you're releasing *3.x.0 final*, remove the pre-release version from this page.

Download pages for older feature releases link to the latest available in that series, so the release manager (👋) won't have to go through all the old ones and manually update them every time (or just not bother).

For example, so 3.13.7 and 3.13.8 say they have been superseded by 3.13.9.

The page of all x.y.z Python versions is now generated, so the release manager (👋) doesn't have to update it manually every time.

Hello Masto !

Pour mes enfants de 11 et 14 ans, je cherche des ressources pour les aider à mettre un pied dans l'univers du développement de jeux vidéos. Ils commencent à tourner en rond avec ce qu'ils ont sous la main, ils veulent passer à l'étape d'après :D

Contraintes :
- matériel standard, pas de CPU/GPU dernière génération
- Linux uniquement
- pas *trop* de lecture (les bouquins type Eyrolles, même junior, ce n'est pas pour mon fils)
- côté compétences graphiques on va dire que c'est le minimum du minimum :D

Les deux sont très à l'aise avec un ordi ou une tablette, ont l'habitude de faire du Scratch ou même des mods Minecraft pour mon fils, et sont à l'aise avec l'anglais écrit (et même oral pour mon fils).

J'ai déjà comme ressources en attente :

- https://github.com/kitao/pyxel
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Games/Tutorials

Je prends donc les idées, les recommandations, les tutos (y compris Youtube), etc.

We could really use about 5 more mentors to help people with their #PyConUS talk proposals. I know so many smart people here who could almost write a talk proposal in their sleep. Will you help a new person get started on their #Python speaking journey? If you're up for it, please fill out the form here, https://forms.gle/PMWn1q754sAwkUtj9

I've updated the https://www.python.org/downloads/ page:

Added download links to the active Python versions table. Before, you had to hunt for the one you wanted in the table below.

They're redirect links, so, for example, https://www.python.org/downloads/latest/python3.15/ goes to https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3150a2/ and https://www.python.org/downloads/latest/python3.13/ goes to https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3139/

Could be handy for your docs, if you want to point people to the latest, say, 3.12.
