In many hallway chats and community organisers open space, one issue came up again and again: Sponsorship.
Now that AI is taking the spotlight, I’m asking: Who's left behind?

Looking down on many tables of sprinters.
Sprinters at their laptops.

An array of snacks and sweets including one with a written warning poster: "VERY SPICY. EAT ONE A TIME. CAROLINA RIPPERS. WASH FINGERS." Plus two types of Finnish salmiakki which should have a warning, and a big rainbow unicorn balloon.
Thanks to everyone for taking part in the #CPython sprint at #EuroPython2025!
Across all CPython repos this weekend:
* 122 PRs created (69 the previous weekend)
* 79 PRs merged (65)
* countless invaluable in-person discussions (a few?)
#EuroPython #Python #sprint #Prague
This week, what is a new thing you learned in #python
? Can be any tool/language feature/module/community, anything?
Dear #Python friends, do you write/use any Python code which deals with #DNS somehow? If yes, then can you please tell me the usecases?

An infographic titled “When You Stop Smoking.” It includes three timeframes showing the health benefits of quitting smoking, each with text and a heart illustration: After 1 year: The risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker’s. Between 5–15 years: Stroke risk is reduced to that of a non-smoker. After 15 years: The risk of coronary heart disease is that of someone who has never smoked.

Paul Graham's latest piece is the hottest piece of garbage he's ever written -- which honestly is really saying something. But I take solace in the HN comments, the most upvoted of which observes that his mind has turned to mush. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4268...

The just-announced NIST SP 800-38D Rev. 1 Call for Comments asks how NIST should address the low message limit of AES-GCM with random nonces (yay!): whether by defining Rijndael-256-GCM, or by blessing a nonce-key generation method.
It cites: @soatok.bsky.social, Shay Gueron, and me. Love it.
This reminds me, I have to figure out how to apply :)

My wife sent me this a few minutes ago and I haven't stopped laughing. Read the description: "A colorblind elementary school teacher meets an optometrist who helps bring color into his life in time for the holidays."
My local nightclub is raising money to replace their toilets. If you sponsor a toilet, they will engrave a name on it. Anyone's name. So if you have $5k and someone you truly hate, all I'm saying is that you have the opportunity to do something really funny right now.
Happy holidays to all -
I used to know Sriram a long time ago; had coffee with him and met his wife and he told me he used to read my blog. After he fell in with the Andreessen types and became their pet during the Clubhouse era, I told him it was gonna end like this. We haven’t spoken since, but… lie down with dogs. 🤷🏾
The problem with eating the rich is that there’s so much wealth inequality that the 1% simple don’t have enough protein to feed the full 99%, so you also need to eat other food too
