Comfort numbs us. Connection heals us. In this episode, Peter Fenger sits down with Mo Edjlali, founder and CEO of Mindful Leader, the world's largest provider of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) training. A former computer engineer with a career that began at NASA and in the tech world, Mo turned to mindfulness after a startup collapse forced him to confront life, loss, and what really matters. Since then, he has certified over 550 facilitators, launched the global Meditate Together community, and become both a leading voice for mindfulness and a critical voice about its modern pitfalls. Mo's new book, “Open MBSR,” reimagines mindfulness for today, trauma-aware, inclusive, and community-driven. In this conversation, we dive into his journey and explore how modern mindfulness can sometimes retraumatize, commercialize, and exclude. More importantly, we uncover new approaches that reclaim mindfulness's roots: healing, freedom, and agency for everyone.   For more information about Open MBSR: Reimaging the Future of Mindfulness” by Mo Edjlali, please visit: https://www.mindfulleader.org/ombsr For more information about Meditate Togeether, the online meditation center, please visit: https://www.mindfulleader.org/meditate-together For more information about the Free Introduction to MBSR eLearning Course, please visit: https://www.mindfulleader.org/free-online-mindfulness-meditation-course For more information about the MBSR 8-Week Mindfulness Training Certification, please visit: https://www.mindfulleader.org/mbsr-training Connect with Mindful Leader on X at: https://x.com/MindfulSummit Connect with Mindful Leader on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/mindfulleader.org/

In part one of this Building Better Foundations interview, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche talk with Greg Lind, founder of Buildly and OpenBuild, about bridging the gap in software development through AI, automation, and collaboration. Greg shares how modern teams can overcome silos, strengthen communication, and build transparency into their workflows — creating stronger, more adaptive foundations for success in today's fast-paced, AI-driven world. "We wanted to bring developers and product managers into one tool—so they could build together rather than as two separate teams." — Greg Lind About the Guest — Greg Lind Gregory Lind is an American software developer, author, and entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience in open-source innovation, software efficiency, and team transparency. He's the founder of Buildly in Brooklyn and co-founder of Humanitec in Berlin, helping organizations modernize systems through collaboration and automation. A frequent speaker at Open Gov and Open Source conferences, Greg advocates for open, scalable solutions and smarter software processes. His upcoming book, "Radical Therapy for Software Teams" (Apress, 2024), explores how transparency and AI can transform how teams build software. Bridging the Gap Between Teams and Tools Greg's journey toward bridging the gap started years ago while working with Humanitech in Berlin, where he saw firsthand how poorly connected processes caused frustration and inefficiency. Traditional Agile frameworks, while once revolutionary, began to buckle under the pressure of multi-repo, multi-cloud, and AI-driven development. "Agile started to break under the pressure—especially when we introduced AI-driven tools and CI/CD pipelines. The cycles just weren't fast enough." — Greg Lind To solve this, Buildly introduced a Rapid AI Development (RAD) process — a modern evolution of Agile that supports faster, release-based cycles rather than rigid sprints. It's an approach designed to keep pace with today's distributed teams and complex workflows. Bridging the Gap Through Automated Communication At the heart of Buildly's philosophy is a belief that communication shouldn't slow developers down — it should empower them. By integrating tools like Trello and GitHub, Buildly connects product and sprint backlogs into one transparent view. Developers' commits, issues, and updates automatically feed into team dashboards, reducing the need for endless meetings and manual updates. "You shouldn't have to explain what you did yesterday. Your commits already tell that story." — Greg Lind This approach allows teams to focus on outcomes rather than overhead — building trust, visibility, and true alignment across departments. It's automation as a bridge, not a barrier. Using AI to Bridge the Gap Between People and Process While Greg embraces AI's potential, he warns against depending on it too heavily. AI is great at identifying tasks and patterns, but humans still bring creativity, empathy, and strategic thinking to the table. "AI can tell you what's urgent, but it can't understand what's important." — Greg Lind In Greg's view, AI should be a co-pilot — helping teams filter information, automate repetitive work, and focus on higher-value decisions. By balancing automation with human insight, teams can bridge the gap between efficiency and innovation. Empowering Developers to Bridge the Gap Themselves Greg encourages developers not to wait for leadership to fix broken processes — but to take initiative. Automate your own workflows, visualize your backlog, and demonstrate how better systems can look in practice. "Even if you have to automate your own backlog—do it. Show your team what better looks like." — Greg Lind This proactive mindset transforms teams from reactive to adaptive, ensuring that everyone contributes to bridging the gap between communication, accountability, and delivery. Bridging the Gap Toward the Future of Development Greg Lind's insights remind us that bridging the gap in software development isn't about adopting the latest framework — it's about reconnecting people, process, and purpose. When teams share context, communicate openly, and use AI responsibly, they build stronger foundations for innovation. As this episode shows, the future of software isn't about faster code — it's about better collaboration. And bridging the gap is where that future begins.

There's a project on drupal.org to help you get started. Module name/project name: Local Association (EU Sites Project) Brief history How old: created in Oct 2023 by Jeremy Chinquist (jjchinquist) of drunomics and Drupal Austria Versions available: dev version only Maintainership Security coverage - opted in, no coverage until stable Documentation guide available to help with setup Number of open issues: 49 open issues, 4 of which are bugs No usage stats available Module features and usage This is an unusual project because it's designed to help you quickly create a Drupal website but it doesn't follow any of the usual patterns I've seen: a distribution, composer project template, or Drupal site template Instead, the recommended path is to clone the repo local, and run a setup script. That creates your DDEV project, runs a composer install and then drush site install, and even runs a drush uli so you can log into your built site with a single click once it's done Along the way it will install a couple of custom modules. One populates a multitude of default content, so you have a populated site including navigation as your starting point. It will look like a clone of the 2022 Drupal Netherlands site, though there have been ongoing tweaks to the overall setup, with the most recent in June of 2025. The other custom module provides some additional layouts for use with layout builder, and the project also includes a theme meant to be customized. As you may have guessed by now, this project started when the Dutch Drupal Association rebuilt their website in 2022, and wanted to share their work with other local associations. Drupal France was the first to adopt it, and there was a BoF at DrupalCon Lille in 2023 to discuss sharing it more widely. Following that, an international workgroup began collaborating to establish this project and it was adopted by Drupal associations in Belgium, Germany, Norway, Finland, and London, England. Since today's topic is about positioning Drupal on the international stage, I thought it would also be interesting to talk about how local Drupal associations have also formed their own federation to reduce effort

What do guitar busking, geospatial queries, and agentic coding have to do with Postgres? In Episode 33 of Talking Postgres, principal engineer Rob Emanuele at Microsoft shares his winding path from Venice Beach to building a new VS Code extension for PostgreSQL—that works with any Postgres, anywhere. We dig into GitHub Copilot, ask vs. agent mode, and how Rob now codes in English—and then spends even more time in code review to decide what's good, what's bad, and what's dangerous. Also: how PyCon changed his life; his work on the Microsoft Planetary Computer with spatio-temporal queries and PostGIS; and how music, improv, and failure shape his approach to developer experience. Links mentioned in this episode:Visual Studio Marketplace: VS Code extension for PostgreSQL with ~261K downloads to dateGitHub repo: VS Code extension for PostgreSQL (for issues/discussions)Docs: GitHub Copilot agent modePOSETTE 2025 Talk: Introducing Microsoft's VS Code Extension for PostgreSQL, by Matt McFarlandVS Code Live: Working with PostgreSQL databases with the Microsoft PostgreSQL VS Code extension, with Olivia Guzzardo & Rob EmanueleTalking Postgres Ep30: AI for data engineers with Simon WillisonPostgres Meetup for All: VS Code Tools for Postgres, happening on Thu Dec 11, 2025 Wikipedia: DogfoodingTalking Postgres Ep07: Why people care about PostGIS and Postgres with Paul Ramsey & Regina ObePOSETTE 2024 keynote: The Open Source Geospatial Community, PostGIS, & Postgres, by Regina ObeWebsite: Microsoft Planetary ComputerGitHub repo: PgSTACCal invite: LIVE recording of Ep34 of Talking Postgres to happen on Wed Dec 10, 2025

Hey, Alex here! Quick note, while preparing for this week, I posted on X that I don't remember such a quiet week in AI since I started doing ThursdAI regularly, but then 45 min before the show started, Kimi dropped a SOTA oss reasoning model, turning a quiet week into an absolute banger. Besides Kimi, we covered the updated MCP thinking from Anthropic, and had Kenton Varda from cloudflare as a guest to talk about Code Mode, chatted about Windsurf and Cursor latest updates and covered OpenAI's insane deals. Also, because it was a quiet week, I figured I'd use the opportunity to create an AI powered automation, and used N8N for that, and shared it on the stream, so if you're interested in automating with AI with relatively low code, this episode is for you. Let's dive inThursdAI - Recaps of the most high signal AI weekly spaces is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Kimi K2 Thinking is Here and It's a 1 Trillion Parameter Beast! (X, HF, Tech Blog)Let's start with the news that got everyone's energy levels skyrocketing right as we went live. Moonshot AI dropped Kimi K2 Thinking, an open-source, 1 trillion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, and it's an absolute monster.This isn't just a numbers game; Kimi K2 Thinking is designed from the ground up to be a powerful agent. With just around 32 billion active parameters during inference, a massive 256,000 token context window, and an insane tool-calling capacity. They're claiming it can handle 200-300 sequential tool calls without any human intervention. The benchmarks are just as wild. On the Humanities Last Exam (HLE), they're reporting a score of 44.9%, beating out both GPT-5 and Claude 4.5 Thinking. While it doesn't quite top the charts on SWE-bench verified, it's holding its own against the biggest closed-source models out there. Seeing an open-source model compete at this level is incredibly exciting.During the show, we saw some truly mind-blowing demos, from a beautiful interactive visualization of gradient descent to a simulation of a virus attacking cells, all generated by the model. The model's reasoning traces, which are exposed through the API, also seem qualitatively different from other models, showing a deep and thoughtful process. My co-hosts and I were blown away. The weights and a very detailed technical report are available on Hugging Face, so you can dive in and see for yourself. Shout out to the entire Moonshot AI team for this incredible release!Other open source updates from this week* HuggingFace released an open source “Smol Training Playbook” on training LLMs, it's a 200+ interactive beast with visualizations, deep dives into pretraining, dataset, postraining and more! (HF)* Ai2 launches OlmoEarth — foundation models + open, end-to-end platform for fast, high-resolution Earth intelligence (X, Blog)* LongCat-Flash-Omni — open-source omni-modal system with millisecond E2E spoken interaction, 128K context and a 560B ScMoE backbone (X, HF, Announcement)Big Tech's Big Moves: Apple, Amazon, and OpenAIThe big companies were making waves this week, starting with a blockbuster deal that might finally make Siri smart. Apple is reportedly will be paying Google around $1 billion per year to license a custom 1.2 trillion-parameter version of Gemini to power a revamped Siri.This is a massive move. The Gemini model will run on Apple's Private Cloud Compute, keeping user data walled off from Google, and will handle Siri's complex summarizer and planner functions. After years of waiting for Apple to make a significant move in GenAI, it seems they're outsourcing the heavy lifting for now while they work to catch up with their own in-house models. As a user, I don't really care who builds the model, as long as Siri stops being dumb!In more dramatic news, Perplexity revealed that Amazon sent them a legal threat to block their Comet AI assistant from shopping on Amazon.com. This infuriated me. My browser is my browser, and I should be able to use whatever tools I want to interact with the web. Perplexity took a strong stand with their blog post, “Bullying is Not Innovation,” arguing that user agents are distinct from scrapers and act on behalf of the user with their own credentials. An AI assistant is just that—an assistant. It shouldn't matter if I ask my wife or my AI to buy something for me on Amazon. This feels like a move by Amazon to protect its ad revenue at the expense of user choice and innovation, and I have to give major props to Perplexity for being so transparent and fighting back.Finally, OpenAI continues its quest for infinite compute, announcing a multi-year strategic partnership with AWS. This comes on top of massive deals with NVIDIA, Microsoft, Oracle, and others, bringing their total commitment to compute into the trillions of dollars. It's getting to a point where OpenAI seems “too big to fail,” as any hiccup could have serious repercussions for the entire tech economy, which is now heavily propped up by AI investment. Sam has clarified that they don't think OpenAI wants to be too big to fail in a recent post on X, and that the recent miscommunications around the US government backstopping OpenAI's infrastructure bailouts were taken out of context.

With a background in tech and AI innovation, Eli Lopianshares his optimistic vision for how AI can enhance societal well-being, improve policy-making, and reshape democratic systems. The conversation begins with Eli's personal journey into AI and expands into a deep dive on the limitations of current technologies, the risks of bias and misuse, and the urgent need for human oversight in an increasingly automated world. Eli Lopian introduces the concept of AICracy, a governance model that leverages AI to support legislative processes, jurisdictional fairness, and transparent decision-making. Listeners will gain insight into: The flaws in modern democracy and how AI could address them The role of open-source vs. proprietary systems in shaping AI ethics The concept of Rank Math Voting and its potential to revolutionize elections How public perception and acceptance of AI will influence future governance The importance of maintaining human responsibility in AI integration This episode is essential for anyone curious about the intersection of technology, ethics, and political evolution. Eli's ideas challenge conventional thinking and offer a bold framework for a future where AI supports—not replaces—human leadership. 00:00 Introduction and Initial Thoughts on AI 00:54 Guest Introduction: Eli Lopian 01:37 Ellie's Journey and Vision for AI 03:12 Challenges and Public Perception of AI 06:59 AI's Role in Governance and Society 10:50 Technological Advancements and Future Prospects 20:31 Open Source vs. Proprietary Systems 23:20 The Role of AI in Jurisdiction 24:10 Challenges and Flaws in Modern Democracy 26:10 AI's Potential in Legislative Processes 26:57 The Concept of Rank Math Voting 28:51 AI's Role in Policy Making 30:19 Public Perception and Acceptance of AI 34:20 Future Projections for AI 42:28 Human Responsibility in AI Integration 43:17 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Social media links Personal Profiles (Elilopian) LinkedIn: / elilopian X (Twitter): https://x.com/elilopian Instagram: / elilopian ⸻ Typemock Website: https://www.typemock.com LinkedIn: / typemock X (Twitter): https://x.com/typemock Website https://www.aicracy.ai

Andrew Nesbitt builds tools and open datasets to support, sustain, and secure critical digital infrastructure. He's been exploring the world of open source metadata for over a decade. First with libraries.io and now with ecosyste.ms, which tracks over 12 million packages, 287 million repos, 24.5 billion dependencies, and 1.9 million maintainers. What has Andrew learned from all this, who is using this open dataset, and how does he hope others can build on top of it all? Tune in to find out.

Microsoft invested $13 billion in OpenAI. Amazon poured billions into Anthropic. The AI oligopoly is here. Lord Tim Clement-Jones and Lord Chris Holmes, architects of UK AI policy, reveal what business leaders must know about Big Tech's grip on AI - from vendor lock-in risks to circular funding patterns signaling bubble collapse.

In our latest episode, Robby and Tim talk with Will McGugan, creator of the Rich and Textual open source projects and founder of Textualize and Toad (not yet released), about the challenges of turning beloved open-source projects into real businesses. Despite Rich and Textual's huge adoption in the Python community, he says he waited too long to monetize, focused too much on technical perfection, and tried to build infrastructure before a killer product. He also burned himself out and wishes he had simplified and hired earlier.McGugan believes the terminal is a neglected but essential interface, prized for speed and flow. Rich and Textual modernized terminal output, but monetizing open-core dev tools proved difficult. His new project, Toad, aims to be a universal AI front-end for the terminal - open-source, protocol-driven, and able to plug into different agent back ends like Claude and others. The goal: seamless workflows and modern UX in the environment developers already live in.Big takeaways: monetize early, ship a killer app sooner, don't overcomplicate structure, and avoid grinding yourself into the ground.

Blockiert dein Code Review gerade mal wieder den Release oder ist es der unsichtbare Klebstoff, der Wissen im Team verteilt? In dieser Episode gehen wir der Frage auf den Grund, warum Reviews weit mehr sind als ein einfaches “looks good to me” und was sie mit sozialer Interaktion, Teamdynamik und Wissensverteilung zu tun haben. Wir sprechen mit Prof. Michael Dorner, Professor für Software Engineering an der TH Nürnberg, der seit Jahren zur Rolle von Code Reviews in der Softwareentwicklung forscht: mit Code Review Daten von Microsoft, Spotify oder trivago. Überall zeigt sich: Pull Requests sind mehr als technische Checks, sie sind Kommunikationsnetzwerke. Gemeinsam beleuchten wir, warum Tooling oft zweitrangig ist, wie sich Review-Praktiken historisch entwickelt haben und was das alles mit Ownership, Architektur und sogar Steuern zu tun hat. Ein Blick auf Code Reviews, der dir definitiv eine neue Perspektive eröffnet.Bonus: Wir erklären, warum alle Informatiker Doktoren auch Philosophen sind ;)Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

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.

Most Silicon Valley CEOs who cash out their stock options start another tech company. Yishan Wong planted trees instead. After helping build PayPal, Facebook, and serving as Reddit's CEO, Wong concluded that humanity's biggest challenge wouldn't be solved with algorithms or network effects—it would be solved by restoring the planet's forests at an unprecedented scale. Mitch Ratcliffe sits down with Wong to discuss Terraformation, the company he founded in 2020 with an audacious mission: restore 3 billion acres of native forest worldwide—an area larger than the entire United States.Planting a trillion trees isn't just about seeds in the ground. It's about solving bottlenecks like funding gaps that leave 95% of qualified forestry teams without resources, seed shortages, lack of infrastructure and technology, gaps in tracking and verification. Terraformation built a support system that includes modular seed banks, solar-powered nurseries, open source forest management software, which is called Terraware and a seed to carbon forest accelerator that's modeled on tech startup accelerators. Since founding Terraformation, Wong has enabled the planting of over 4.7 million trees across 394 species, established 19 seed banks and 21 nurseries and created more than 798 jobs. "We made Terraware not because this is the most genius piece of technology that will change the world," Yishan explains. "We said, hey, let's just help forestry teams achieve certain basic necessary activities." Unlike commercial timber plantations that prioritize fast-growing monocultures, Terraformation focuses on biodiverse native forests. Native tree species can support an order of magnitude more life than non-native species because they've co-evolved over millions of years. "Trees are the anchor species for a forest ecosystem," he added. "What you're doing is you're growing trees as the anchor species so that all of the other life in that forest ecosystem comes back."Terraformation recently won the Keeling Curve Prize and the G20's RestorLife Award. The company also received recognition at the Global Sustainability Awards, winning SME Company of the Year. Yishan explains why a former Reddit CEO believes in low tech solutions that are the right approach to climate change, how Silicon Valley's lessons about scaling systems could apply to reforestation and what it takes to build an organization designed to be replicated rather than defended.

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette chats with developer Mark Westguard about the new Image Roulette plugin, which randomizes images on WordPress sites while keeping alt text and captions for accessibility. The plugin was inspired by Michelle's need to display randomized Speed Networking conversation cards.They demonstrate how it works, discuss potential eCommerce uses, and share experiences using AI tools like Claude to speed up development. The episode also highlights collaboration, creativity, and fun within the WordPress community.Top Takeaways:Image Roulette Plugin: Michelle's accessibility challenge inspired Mark to create a plugin that randomizes images while preserving alt text and captions. Within hours, he developed a fully functional prototype that later became a public WordPress plugin.Accessibility at the Core: The plugin automatically uses each image's existing media library fields (alt text, title, caption), ensuring accessibility is built-in rather than an afterthought — aligning with WordPress's broader emphasis on inclusive design.Simplicity and Versatility: Image Roulette works via both a Gutenberg block and a shortcode, making it compatible with different site builders. It's ideal not only for random prompts but also for creative and commercial applications, such as eCommerce product showcases.Mentioned In The Show:MooImage RouletteInsta WPClaudeCursorAngieWP World

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: Cyclopts: A CLI library A CLI library that fixes 13 annoying issues in Typer Much of Cyclopts was inspired by the excellent Typer library. Despite its popularity, Typer has some traits that I (and others) find less than ideal. Part of this stems from Typer's age, with its first release in late 2019, soon after Python 3.8's release. Because of this, most of its API was initially designed around assigning proxy default values to function parameters. This made the decorated command functions difficult to use outside of Typer. With the introduction of Annotated in python3.9, type-hints were able to be directly annotated, allowing for the removal of these proxy defaults. The 13: Argument vs Option Positional or Keyword Arguments Choices Default Command Docstring Parsing Decorator Parentheses Optional Lists Keyword Multiple Values Flag Negation Help Defaults Validation Union/Optional Support Adding a Version Flag Documentation Brian #2: The future of Python web services looks GIL-free Giovanni Barillari “Python 3.14 was released at the beginning of the month. This release was particularly interesting to me because of the improvements on the "free-threaded" variant of the interpreter. Specifically, the two major changes when compared to the free-threaded variant of Python 3.13 are: Free-threaded support now reached phase II, meaning it's no longer considered experimental The implementation is now completed, meaning that the workarounds introduced in Python 3.13 to make code sound without the GIL are now gone, and the free-threaded implementation now uses the adaptive interpreter as the GIL enabled variant. These facts, plus additional optimizations make the performance penalty now way better, moving from a 35% penalty to a 5-10% difference.” Lots of benchmark data, both ASGI and WSGI Lots of great thoughts in the “Final Thoughts” section, including “On asynchronous protocols like ASGI, despite the fact the concurrency model doesn't change that much – we shift from one event loop per process, to one event loop per thread – just the fact we no longer need to scale memory allocations just to use more CPU is a massive improvement. ” “… for everybody out there coding a web application in Python: simplifying the concurrency paradigms and the deployment process of such applications is a good thing.” “… to me the future of Python web services looks GIL-free.” Michael #3: Free-threaded GC The free-threaded build of Python uses a different garbage collector implementation than the default GIL-enabled build. The Default GC: In the standard CPython build, every object that supports garbage collection (like lists or dictionaries) is part of a per-interpreter, doubly-linked list. The list pointers are contained in a PyGC_Head structure. The Free-Threaded GC: Takes a different approach. It scraps the PyGC_Head structure and the linked list entirely. Instead, it allocates these objects from a special memory heap managed by the "mimalloc" library. This allows the GC to find and iterate over all collectible objects using mimalloc's data structures, without needing to link them together manually. The free-threaded GC does NOT support "generations” By marking all objects reachable from these known roots, we can identify a large set of objects that are definitely alive and exclude them from the more expensive cycle-finding part of the GC process. Overall speedup of the free-threaded GC collection is between 2 and 12 times faster than the 3.13 version. Brian #4: Polite lazy imports for Python package maintainers Will McGugan commented on a LI post by Bob Belderbos regarding lazy importing “I'm excited about this PEP. I wrote a lazy loading mechanism for Textual's widgets. Without it, the entire widget library would be imported even if you needed just one widget. Having this as a core language feature would make me very happy.” https://github.com/Textualize/textual/blob/main/src/textual/widgets/__init__.py Well, I was excited about Will's example for how to, essentially, allow users of your package to import only the part they need, when they need it. So I wrote up my thoughts and an explainer for how this works. Special thanks to Trey Hunner's Every dunder method in Python, which I referenced to understand the difference between __getattr__() and __getattribute__(). Extras Brian: Started writing a book on Test Driven Development. Should have an announcement in a week or so. I want to give folks access while I'm writing it, so I'll be opening it up for early access as soon as I have 2-3 chapters ready to review.

Python in 2025 is different. Threads really are about to run in parallel, installs finish before your coffee cools, and containers are the default. In this episode, we count down 38 things to learn this year: free-threaded CPython, uv for packaging, Docker and Compose, Kubernetes with Tilt, DuckDB and Arrow, PyScript at the edge, plus MCP for sane AI workflows. Expect practical wins and migration paths. No buzzword bingo, just what pays off in real apps. Join me along with Peter Wang and Calvin Hendrix-Parker for a fun, fast-moving conversation.

A bunch of products and services seem to be going end-of-life all at once right now, so we did a round-up of some notable ones this week. Believe it or not, the venerable TiVo line of set-top TV recorders was still in service right up until this past week, so we pay tribute to this product that changed everything in the television space (and apparently the open source licensing space). Of course, we also have to do a check-in with Windows 10 now that its EOL date has come and gone, and the options for extended support have become clearer. Lastly, we wrap up with some tidbits about the rapid disappearance of the BD-ROM drive from retail, the end of AOL's dial-up service, and more.Windows 10 ESU: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/extended-security-updatesWindows LTSC FAQ: https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_linksTiVo is done: https://cordcuttersnews.com/tivo-stops-selling-dvrs-marking-the-end-of-an-era/Pioneer sells off its BD-ROM business: https://www.techpowerup.com/336803/pioneer-has-ended-production-of-computer-blu-ray-drives-transfers-pddm-business-to-shanxi-group Support the Pod!
