See also: elf: Advent of Code CLI helper for Python Michael #2: Django 6 is coming Expected December 2025 Django 6.0 supports Python 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14 Built-in support for the Content Security Policy (CSP) standard is now available, making it easier to protect web applications against content injection attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS). The Django Template Language now supports template partials, making it easier to encapsulate and reuse small named fragments within a template file. Django now includes a built-in Tasks framework for running code outside the HTTP request–response cycle. This enables offloading work, such as sending emails or processing data, to background workers. Email handling in Django now uses Python's modern email API, introduced in Python 3.6. This API, centered around the email.message.EmailMessage class Brian #3: Advanced, Overlooked Python Typing get_args, TypeGuard, TypeIs, and more goodies Michael #4: codespell Learned from this PR for the Talk Python book. Fix common misspellings in text files. It's designed primarily for checking misspelled words in source code (backslash escapes are skipped), but it can be used with other files as well. It does not check for word membership in a complete dictionary, but instead looks for a set of common misspellings. Therefore it should catch errors like "adn", but it will not catch "adnasdfasdf". It shouldn't generate false-positives when you use a niche term it doesn't know about. Extras Brian: Is mkdocs maintained? Hatch 1.16 Michael: Follow up on tach from Gerben Dekker: tach has been unmaintained for a bit but is not anymore. It was the main product from Gauge which is a Y combinator startup that pivoted to something unrelated and abandoned tach. However, https://github.com/DetachHead forked it but now got access to the main repo and has committed to maintaining it. ruff analyze graph is fully independent of tach - we actually started to look into alternatives for tach when it became unmaintained and then found ruff analyze graph. For our use case, with just a bit of manipulation on top of ruff analyze graph we replaced our use of deptry (which was slower - and I try to be careful depending on one-man projects).

Today we're digging into the Model Context Protocol, or MCP. Think LSP for AI: build a small Python service once and your tools and data show up across editors and agents like VS Code, Claude Code, and more. My guest, Den Delimarsky from Microsoft, helps build this space and will keep us honest about what's solid versus what's just shiny. We'll keep it practical: transports that actually work, guardrails you can trust, and a tiny server you could ship this week. By the end, you'll have a clear mental model and a path to plug Python into the internet of agents.

We've heard that Microsoft will go off script this year with a 26H1 release of Windows 11 specifically aimed at Snapdragon X2-based PCs, as it did with the early release of 24H2 last year for the first-generation Snapdragon X. Also, Microsoft's latest earnings call left analysts baffled as execs dodged questions about multibillion-dollar AI losses and the real story behind OpenAI's ballooning deficit.26H1! Now confirmed by the release notes of a Windows Update And the Dev channel will soon switch over to 26H1 testing, with Beta moving to 25H2 (from 24H2) Expectations? All three versions will be functionally identical except for some Copilot+ PC-specific features that may be briefly only on Snapdragon X2.

We've heard that Microsoft will go off script this year with a 26H1 release of Windows 11 specifically aimed at Snapdragon X2-based PCs, as it did with the early release of 24H2 last year for the first-generation Snapdragon X. Also, Microsoft's latest earnings call left analysts baffled as execs dodged questions about multibillion-dollar AI losses and the real story behind OpenAI's ballooning deficit.26H1! Now confirmed by the release notes of a Windows Update And the Dev channel will soon switch over to 26H1 testing, with Beta moving to 25H2 (from 24H2) Expectations? All three versions will be functionally identical except for some Copilot+ PC-specific features that may be briefly only on Snapdragon X2.

AI Revolution, Cloud Growth, and the Virtual Cell. Brandon Weichert reports on how AI is driving massive growth in cloud computing, exemplified by Amazon's surging shares and AWS growth, reaching paces "we haven't seen since 2022." Weichert dismisses fears of an "AI crash" as fear-mongering rooted in ignorance and past market bubbles, arguing that AI is sparking new sectors and enhancing productivity across industries. He details the cutting-edge application of AI in creating a "virtual cell"—computer models that simulate cell functions to speed up drug discovery, understand disease mechanisms, and inform scientific investigation. 1951

Brian #1: The PSF has withdrawn a $1.5 million proposal to US government grant program Related post from Simon Willison ARS Technica: Python plan to boost software security foiled by Trump admin's anti-DEI rules The Register: Python Foundation goes ride or DEI, rejects government grant with strings attached In Jan 2025, the PSF submitted a proposal for a US NSF grant under the Safety, Security, and Privacy of Open Source Ecosystems program. After months of work by the PSF, the proposal was recommended for funding. If the PSF accepted it, however, they would need to agree to the some terms and conditions, including, affirming that the PSF doesn't support diversity. The restriction wouldn't just be around the security work, but around all activity of the PSF as a whole. And further, that any deemed violation would give the NSF the right to ask for the money back. That just won't work, as the PSF would have already spent the money. The PSF mission statement includes "The mission of the Python Software Foundation is to promote, protect, and advance the Python programming language, and to support and facilitate the growth of a diverse and international community of Python programmers." The money would have obviously been very valuable, but the restrictions are just too unacceptable. The PSF withdrew the proposal. This couldn't have been an easy decision, that was a lot of money, but I think the PSF did the right thing. Michael #2: A Binary Serializer for Pydantic Models 7× Smaller Than JSON A compact binary serializer for Pydantic models that dramatically reduces RAM usage compared to JSON. The library is designed for high-load systems (e.g., Redis caching), where millions of models are stored in memory and every byte matters. It serializes Pydantic models into a minimal binary format and deserializes them back with zero extra metadata overhead. Target Audience: This project is intended for developers working with: high-load APIs in-memory caches (Redis, Memcached) message queues cost-sensitive environments where object size matters Brian #3: T-strings: Python's Fifth String Formatting Technique? Trey Hunner Python 3.14 has t-strings. How do they fit in with the rest of the string story? History percent-style (%) strings - been around for a very long time string.Template - and t.substitute() - from Python 2.4, but I don't think I've ever used them bracket variables and .format() - Since Python 2.6 f-strings - Python 3.6 - Now I feel old. These still seem new to me t-strings - Python 3.14, but a totally different beast. These don't return strings. Trey then covers a problem with f-strings in that the substitution happens at definition time. t-strings have substitution happen later. this is essentially “lazy string interpolation” This still takes a bit to get your head around, but I appreciate Trey taking a whack at the explanation. Michael #4: Cronboard Cronboard is a terminal application that allows you to manage and schedule cronjobs on local and remote servers. With Cronboard, you can easily add, edit, and delete cronjobs, as well as view their status. ✨ Features ✔️ Check cron jobs ✔️ Create cron jobs with validation and human-readable feedback ✔️ Pause and resume cron jobs ✔️ Edit existing cron jobs ✔️ Delete cron jobs ✔️ View formatted last and next run times ✔️ Accepts special expressions like @daily, @yearly, @monthly, etc. ✔️ Connect to servers using SSH, using password or SSH keys ✔️ Choose another user to manage cron jobs if you have the permissions to do so (sudo) Extras Brian: PEP 810: Explicit lazy imports, has been unanimously accepted by steering council Lean TDD book will be written in the open. TOC, some details, and a 10 page introduction are now available. Hoping for the first pass to be complete by the end of the year. I'd love feedback to help make it a great book, and keep it small-ish, on a very limited budget. Joke: You are so wrong!

Today, we're talking about building real AI products with foundation models. Not toy demos, not vibes. We'll get into the boring dashboards that save launches, evals that change your mind, and the shift from analyst to AI app builder. Our guide is Hugo Bowne-Anderson, educator, podcaster, and data scientist, who's been in the trenches from scalable Python to LLM apps. If you care about shipping LLM features without burning the house down, stick around.
