How Generative and Agentic AI Shift Concern from Technical Debt to Cognitive Debt This piece by Margaret-Anne Storey is the best explanation of the term cognitive debt I've seen so far. Cognitive debt, a term gaining traction recently, instead communicates the notion that …

Short musings on "cognitive debt" - I'm seeing this in my own work, where excessive unreviewed AI-generated code leads me to lose a firm mental model of what I've built, which then makes it harder to confidently make future decisions simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/15/...

Diagram showing how character ranges and the asterisk can be used in `pathlib.Path.glob` to match multiple filenames that follow the same pattern.

Diagram showing how character ranges and the asterisk can be used in `pathlib.Path.glob` to match multiple filenames that follow the same pattern.

Python has a flexible mechanism built into `pathlib` to look for files with filenames that follow a given pattern.

You can use `[...-...]` to represent character ranges and `*` to match arbitrary text.

But note that `glob` does NOT support regex syntax!
This is just similar.

The paid versions of those Jetbrains editors like PyCharm are also on Linux (if you buy them you get to use them on Windows or MacOS as well) - does that count?

Do you still have your older AOC solutions? If you have and want to continue AOC streams, why not look at them what you’d do differently today

Eine Programmier- oder Menschensprache ohne Ziel zu lernen, ist problematisch, weil die Motivation zum Spracherwerb nicht endlos ist.

Python selbst bringt neben den schon genannten Vorteilen eine sehr hilfsbereite Community mit, die auf Diversity achtet. Ist vielleicht auch ein Argument dafΓΌr.

You did one about beeware early this year, it would be great to have another one later in 2026 that focuses on what people actually do with it

Have you tried ffmpeg? It can screen record into segments or the more crash friendly mkv or TS format. There’s a format to allow playback while recording (HLS, a live streaming format, I can try to look up the exact command if needed). A file saved this way while crashing plays up to the crash.

If you had the ability to run some Python code in every Python REPL launched on your machine what would it do? (Automagically available PyPI dependencies are allowed)

Asking for someone who just realized they are not yet heavily overusing their PYTHONSTARTUP file. (me)

All ideas welcome.
