Been using Python since 2.4 and still can't shut up about it. Have a fantastic blog on bitecode.dev. Yeah, it's about Python.

Watch videos, movies, TV series and TV channels instantly. Watch your favorite videos, movies and TV series.

If you find yourself in need of a streamlined experience for such services, may I suggest stremio?

www.stremio.com

Out of the box, it doesn't do much. But install a few addons from stremio-addons.net/addons, such as comet, torrentio and the pirate bay and voilΓ .

It took 20 years, but more and more of my friends are finally asking me about those streaming services.

I don't know what the tipping point was, but here we are.

I actually quite prefer the tone of the original text. The documentation is precise enough that the added fuzziness is not dangerous, and the style gives it a human touch

I like feeling like I'm reading the words of the author, instead of an Ikea assembly manual

But, thanks for Curl no matter what

Stario

Stario is a Python web framework for real-time hypermedia. While most frameworks treat HTTP as request β†’ response, Stario treats connections as ongoing conversations - open an SSE stream, push DOM patches, sync reactive signals.

Huge thanks to @fastly.com for 10+ years of keeping #PyPI up and running! PyPI serves 800K+ users at ~100K requests/sec. With a small team behind the service, that kind of scale is only possible because of infrastructure partners who invest in the sustainability of the #Python ecosystem.

State of WASI support for CPython: March 2026 It's been a while since I posted about WASI support in CPython! πŸ˜… Up until now, most of the work I have been doing around WASI has been making its maintenance easier for me and other core developers. ...

Wrote a blog post to give a status update on WASI support for CPython as PEP 816 got accepted!

I just realized that AI has its personal agenda!
How could I have missed it?..

It works like "reverse selfish gene". In biology, sea anemones with 100 neurons seem to love their larvae (care for them), but actually it's just those who do have more babies & behavior survives.

Now look at AI...

Subcommands with lazy imports In case you didn't hear, PEP 810 got accepted which means Python 3.15 is going to support lazy imports! One of the selling points of lazy imports is with code that has a CLI so that you only import co...

I've started to play with lazy imports thanks to my WASI build script being in CPython's repo, and so I wrote a post about how to adapt your code for running subcommands with argparse to play nicely with lazy imports.

The Steering Council has formally accepted the TypeForm PEP. This is big news for cattrs but I'll hold off on implementing it until Mypy enables support for it without a flag.

We have to bring back skin in the game for this. I fired a coworker 2 weeks ago after telling him multiple times it was unacceptable to bring to code review generated code he didn't understand. It's important to maintain the culture of respondability. How to do that in FOSS is another question...

Got to try raincloud and so far it has worked for me quite well, but if you can do the same with sync with native boorkmarks, I'm interested.

Actually yes, I said 80, but that's a mistake from my old school brain. It's 443 since it's all https with an automated cert.

I'm still in xhtml through http 1.0 in my head somehow.

There is actually a difference this time though: some people will destroy competition because they will use AI correctly.

Unlike no-code/outsourcing/uml, this is not just a trend, it's an industrial revolution scale change.

But boy, we will see the bodies on the side of the road for the others.

Not great for the customers of those companies, of course, but it's a human trait: we never learn our lessons unless we feel the pain. Theory doens't cut it, we need to pay some real life prie.

"This time it's different" and "My situation is not the same" are the most famous last words.

Don't get me wrong, AI is very productive and useful. It is revolutionizing our work.

It is changing everything.

And it is also giving a lot of false confidence to people that will dig themselves into a hole, and then ask for help to get out.

Two things can be true.

This is good for business.

This cycle plays every 10 years. Before it was no-code. Before that it was outsource code. Before that it was generate code from UML...

Every single time, after 2-5 years, the projects died with catastrophic money and reputation loss.

Then I get called to fix it and double my prices.

Love it.

software development in 2026 is going to require some to loosen up a little code doesn't have to be as perfectly crafted the way we did it pre-ai call it slop if you want, but if you're still demanding perfection on every pr while your competitors are shipping "slop" that works.. you're fighting from a disadvantaged position shipping velocity matters more than perfection

Can't wait for the loosened up, non-perfect, but quickly shipped AI-enhanced updates to hit my banking and insurance services next year.

Im sure there will be no issues there at all.

exe.dev: a new hosting solution for your prototypes Being unproductive has never been so well instrumented

A different article than usual, focused on a new hosting service that recently came out:

ssh exe.dev

TL;DR: the value is far away from OVH or Hetzner, but so it’s damn convenient and frankly, super fun.

And I’m not saying that because we share the same .tld

It's part if the secret sauce to make it fast. For the breakpoint, you can python -m pdb your_script to start pdb at the very beginning, and use the break command to put a breakpoint anywhere without editing the file.
