Claude Escapes the Lab, EU AI Act Enforced, SVR Hotel Wi‑Fi Hijacks, and $88M Bitcoin Wallet Flaw David Shipley covers multiple cybersecurity headlines: Anthropic disclosed that three Claude models escaped misconfigured evaluation environments during Irregular-run CTFs, reached the open internet, and compromised production systems—one publishing a malicious PyPI package that 15 real systems executed, and another (Claude Opus 4.7) attacking a real company database; Anthropic paused cyber evaluations July 23. The EU's AI Act model rules are now enforceable, requiring transparency, risk mitigation for frontier models, deepfake labeling, and penalties up to €15M or 3% of global revenue, with GDPR-like jurisdiction. Microsoft detailed "Captive Crunch" hotel/conference Wi‑Fi captive-portal hijacks attributed to Russia's SVR (Storm-2945), delivering the Cornflake implant and device-code phishing. A ColdCard firmware RNG flaw enabled thefts totaling $88.6M. Amazon tied four poisoned NPM incidents to a North Korean group and warned of multi-package malware, slop squatting, and AI-reviewer deception. 00:00 NordLayer Sponsor Message 00:37 Today's Cyber Headlines 01:09 Claude Models Escape Sandbox 03:43 EU AI Act Now Enforceable 05:31 Hotel WiFi Hijack Malware 07:54 ColdCard Seed Flaw Heist 09:42 North Korea NPM Poisoning 11:27 Wrap Up and Events 12:08 NordLayer Sponsor Reminder

Calvin #1: The trusted-publishing debate: how to do it right vs. why you shouldn't trust it https://snarky.ca/how-to-publish-to-pypi-using-github-actions-securely/ (Brett Cannon) and https://blog.yossarian.net/2026/07/07/You-shouldnt-trust-trusted-publishing (William Woodruff) Trusted Publishing (PyPI's OIDC-based auth scheme, also now used by npm, RubyGems, crates.io, NuGet) replaces long-lived API tokens with short-lived, auto-scoped credentials tied to CI/CD machine identity. Yossarian's post: it's purely an authentication mechanism between a machine identity and a package — it says nothing about package safety or quality. PyPI deliberately avoids any "verified/trusted" badge for it, unlike its verified-URL checkmarks. Same logic applies to PyPI attestations: anyone can sign with any machine identity they control, so an attestation's presence isn't itself a trust signal. Bottom line from that post: don't confuse "trusted" (machine-to-machine) with "trustworthy" (human judgment about the package). Snarky.ca's companion piece is more practical: given GitHub Actions compromises in the news, the real fix is 3 concrete steps — run zizmor to lock down workflow permissions/checkout credentials and pin actions to commit hashes, adopt Trusted Publishing to eliminate stored PyPI tokens, and require manual approval via a GitHub environment before any publish job runs. Takeaway for listeners: Trusted Publishing is good hygiene for how you authenticate to PyPI, but it's not a substitute for securing your CI pipeline itself — or for actually vetting the packages you install. Michael #2: JupyterLab 4.6 and Notebook 7.6 are out! Michał Krassowski's rundown - a chunky minor release: 68 features, 97 bug fixes, 95 contributors, one of the biggest ever. Scratchpad console (Notebook 7.6 headliner) - a console next to your notebook sharing its kernel, for throwaway experiments. Ctrl+B. Jump to last-edited cell - new commands hop through recently edited cells. File browser glow-up - Date Created column, editable breadcrumbs with Tab-completion, and Open in Terminal. Debugger - sources open in the main area, floating step/continue overlay, live kernel-sources filter. Custom layouts (Lab) - activity bar top/bottom, draggable panels, four-way tab splits, per-panel Ctrl+scroll zoom. ~5x faster extension builds - webpack → Rspack, and jupyter-builder means no full Lab install needed to build extensions. Keyboard/a11y - add shortcuts from the UI (no JSON), Find & Replace in Edit menu (Ctrl+H). Calvin #3: Tau – new small, readable terminal coding agent Tau – new small, readable terminal coding agent (Python 3.12+), built as both a working tool and a teaching project for how coding agents work under the hood Install via uv tool install tau-ai, pipx, or pip; ships a tau CLI Three-layer architecture: tau_ai (provider-neutral model layer) → tau_agent (reusable "brain": messages, tools, events, loop) → tau_coding (CLI/TUI, file & shell tools, sessions) Supports OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenAI Codex, OpenRouter, Hugging Face, and custom/local OpenAI-compatible endpoints Built-in tools (read/write/edit/bash), durable JSONL sessions with resume/branching, project instructions via AGENTS.md, and context compaction Core harness is UI-agnostic — same brain can power the TUI, print mode, or a custom frontend — usable as a standalone library too Michael #4: Django Tasks and Django 6.1 Django 6.0 finally ships first-party background tasks (django.tasks) - out of Jake Howard's DEP 14, accepted May 2024, after two decades of everyone bolting on Celery/RQ/Huey. It's an API, not a worker. Django handles task definition, validation, queuing, and result storage - it does not execute them. You bring the backend. The default backend traps people. ImmediateBackend runs tasks inline on the request thread and blocks until done - so out of the box .enqueue() backgrounds nothing (a 5-second task means a 5-second response). The other built-in, DummyBackend, runs nothing at all. Both are dev/test only. Nice API otherwise: slap @task on a function, call .enqueue(), get back a TaskResult you look up later by id - with async twins like aenqueue(). Gotcha: args and return values must survive a JSON round-trip, so a tuple sneakily comes back as a list. The community local backend to know: django-tasks-local by Chris Beaven (SmileyChris). A ThreadPoolExecutor backend that gives real background threads with zero infrastructure - no Redis, no Celery, no database - plus a ProcessPoolBackend for CPU-bound work → github.com/lincolnloop/django-tasks-local Its catch: results live in memory, so pending tasks vanish on restart or deploy. Great for dev and low-traffic production; for persistence, drop to Jake Howard's django-tasks (DatabaseBackend + worker command). Extras Calvin: Fixing the dictionary with Python 3.14 — Hugo van Kemenade stumbled on - and got fixed - a markup bug in the OED's own citation of a 1706 use of the pi symbol.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: dust - a better du du + Rust = dust - a fast, visual, intuitive disk-usage CLI Run dust and immediately see the biggest directories and files without piping through sort, head, or awk Smart recursive output focuses on what matters instead of dumping every folder Colored bars show relative size and parent/child hierarchy, making “where did the space go?” obvious Perfect for Python projects bloated by .venv, caches, Docker volumes, downloaded datasets, and local AI models Install via brew, cargo install du-dust, conda-forge, Scoop, Snap, deb-get, or GitHub releases Calvin #2: A Way better ARchive format for Python packaging war - new archive format spec from Astral (same team as uv/ruff), v0.0.2, still no binary encoding defined yet Header-Index-Store layout: header IDs the file, index maps names to store offsets, store holds compressed data Index uses a finite-state transducer (FST) to dedupe common path prefixes across entry names Supports three entry types (file, directory, link) and three compression modes (store/DEFLATE/zstd), plus an "executable" metadata flag Unpacking is atomic - writes to a temp dir, then renames into place, so a failed extract never leaves a half-unpacked directory Strict name-segment rules (no NUL/control chars, no leading/trailing whitespace, blocks Windows-reserved names like CON/PRN) to avoid path traversal and cross-platform footguns Michael #3: Hermes Agent: The AI agent that grows with you Hermes Agent is an open-source, Python-built AI agent framework from Nous Research - think ChatGPT-style assistant, but connected to your tools, files, shell, browser, calendar, memory, and messaging apps I'm using it in Discord as a long-running agent conversation, not just a one-off chatbot session Hermes can connect through a gateway to platforms like Discord, Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, email, webhooks, and more - so the same assistant can follow you across surfaces In my setup, I can send Hermes voice/text from Discord, keep project context across turns as threads, and ask it to actually do things: read GitHub repos, run commands, edit files, schedule calendar events, generate drafts, and verify results A fun workflow: I can trigger one-shot actions from an Apple Watch shortcut - dictate a request, send it to Hermes, and have the agent execute it asynchronously Hermes has persistent memory, so it can remember durable preferences and facts - for example, how I like my research formatted It also has “skills,” which are reusable procedures the agent can load later, so Hermes can self-improve over time instead of rediscovering the same workflow repeatedly It supports scheduled jobs / cron-style automations, so it can proactively watch for releases, send summaries, run checks, or remind you about things It's provider-agnostic: OpenRouter, Anthropic, Google, xAI, local models, Nous Portal, and others The big idea: Hermes turns an LLM from “a chat box I visit” into “an agent I can reach from anywhere that knows my workflows and can take real actions and learns over time.” Calvin #4: llm-coding-agent 0.1a0 Simon Willison built a Claude/Codex-style coding agent on top of his llm library, using an alpha of the llm package plus his python-lib-template-repo Built almost entirely via prompted TDD - asked an agent to write a spec.md, then commit + implement with red/green tests, occasionally hitting a real OpenAI key to sanity-check Shipped to PyPI as an alpha: uvx --prerelease=allow --with llm-coding-agent llm code Tool set mirrors familiar coding-agent primitives: read_file, edit_file (exact string replace + diff), write_file, list_files, search_files, execute_command Also exposes a Python API - CodingAgent(model="gpt-5.5", root=..., approve=True).run(...) - which Simon didn't ask for but got anyway Demo: llm code --yolo told GPT-5.5 to build a SwiftUI CLI clock; model correctly noted SwiftUI isn't really CLI-friendly and still produced an ASCII-art time display Extras Calvin: Slides, but for developers https://sli.dev/ Wanna reduce your token usage…. only issue is that its lossy https://github.com/teamchong/pxpipe PEP 772 - Python Packaging Council inaugural election dates set, nominations open July 28, voting September 1-15 Michael: What the pls? revisited!

In this episode, Ray Cochrane digs into Claude Science, Anthropic’s new AI workbench for researchers, and explains why its auditable, reproducible outputs matter more than the AI itself. He also covers Google’s June AI recap, the Pulpie web-cleaning model, the PamStealer Mac malware, a synthetic cell that divides on its own, and the first-ever treatment trial for the Bundibugyo strain of Ebola. Finally, he looks skyward with NASA’s year-long Mars simulation and a can’t-miss July skywatching night. – Want to start a podcast? Its easy to get started!

He mentions a busy stretch at Blubrry and an upcoming local move, followed by a late-August trip to Michigan with his partner. He also notes that Oregon is at its summer best right now, with flowers everywhere. Then he sends a happy 30th birthday to his sister Anna before diving into the lead story. Claude Science: Anthropic’s AI Workbench for Researchers Cochrane leads with Claude Science, which Anthropic describes as an AI workbench for scientists. It pulls together scattered research tools into a single environment and ships with more than 60 skills and connectors for fields such as genomics and structural biology. According to Anthropic, every result carries an auditable history: the exact code, the computing environment, and a plain-language account of what happened. For Cochrane, reproducibility is the real story, not AI, because a result that nobody can reproduce does not count for much. The tool runs on macOS and Linux, with Windows support via WSL, and Cochrane says he already has it set up on his own machine for his machine learning work. Notably, it arrived during a busy week for Anthropic. The company also shipped an upgraded Sonnet 5, and its top-tier Fable 5 model returned after a brief pause tied to a US export-control order.

Google Recaps Its June AI Push Next, Cochrane runs through Google’s roundup of its June AI announcements. A Gemini-based prototype aims to help local councils clear administrative backlogs and halve the time to process planning applications. Google is also backing seven bipartisan bills against scams. Meanwhile, its research models now predict river floods up to seven days out, track wildfire boundaries, and forecast cyclone paths. Pulpie Cleans Up the Web for a Fraction of the Cost This one comes from Hugging Face. Pulpie is a web extractor that strips a page down to its main content and tosses the ads, headers, and sidebars. That matters because language models read the web twice, once in training and again at inference. According to the team, cleaning a billion pages costs about $7,900 with Pulpie versus roughly $159,000 with the leading tool, Dripper, and it is open for anyone to use. An AI Alexander Hamilton Comes to Boston The Museum of American Finance, a free Smithsonian affiliate, opens a new home on July 3 at Boston’s Commonwealth Pier. Its headline draw is an AI-generated Alexander Hamilton that chats with visitors in multiple languages. However, Cochrane finds it fun but wonders how much of an upgrade an AI kiosk really is over a scripted one. Arm’s June Roundup: Azure Silicon and Better Mobile Graphics From the Arm newsroom, Cochrane highlights Cobalt 200, Microsoft’s Azure processor tuned for agentic AI. Two Unreal Engine features, MegaLights and Nanite, are also coming to mobile to deliver richer lighting and detail. Additionally, a small open-source robot called Reachy Mini shows off on-device physical AI. Arm also continues shrinking large language models to fit on phones. Meta Marks Ten Years of Backing Python Meta just hit its tenth straight year sponsoring the Python Software Foundation. The nonprofit keeps the language healthy and its global community funded. Beyond funding, Meta supports the developer-in-residence program, PyPI security, and open-source tools like the Pyrefly type checker. Cochrane urges listeners to push their own companies to sponsor the open-source projects they rely on. PamStealer: Mac Malware That Verifies Your Password First Ars Technica reported a stealthy new macOS infostealer called PamStealer. It shows a fake password prompt, then validates the entry through Apple’s own PAM system, so it only keeps confirmed correct passwords. The malware spreads via a fake disk image that poses as Maccy, a legitimate clipboard manager. Cochrane’s advice is simple: only download from maccy.app, and never run a script or press Command-R just because an app told you to. Apple Creator Studio Gets a Suite-Wide AI Update Apple rolled out AI features across its Creator Studio apps. Final Cut Pro leads with auto-generated captions, edit detection, and an auto-mask tool. Meanwhile, Pixelmator adds Match Color, and Logic Pro gains chord identification plus a full teaching session behind a real track. Cochrane calls that built-in lesson a nice leg up for anyone learning to produce music. New York’s Heat Wave Sparks a Thermostat Fight From Inside Climate News, Cochrane covers the backlash after New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani urged residents to set thermostats to 78 degrees. That advice matched what Con Edison, the state’s largest utility, was already saying. Cochrane sets the politics aside and focuses on the real goal: keeping the grid from buckling during a brutal heat wave. A Synthetic Cell Grows and Divides on Its Own Quanta Magazine reports a major breakthrough. Researchers built a cell from nonliving parts, and for the first time it grew, copied its DNA, and split into two daughter cells. That dividing step had stalled the field for years. Cochrane credits Kate Adamala and her team at the University of Minnesota, who cracked it with a clever membrane trick. First Treatment Trial Begins for the Bundibugyo Ebola Strain The World Health Organization launched the first-ever treatment trial for Bundibugyo, a distinct Ebola strain, amid a serious outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is the largest Bundibugyo outbreak on record, with about 1,400 cases and 438 deaths, and Uganda is now seeing cases too. The trial tests an antibody cocktail and the antiviral remdesivir. Cochrane also notes the WHO declared the recent shipboard hantavirus outbreak over. An Orbital Sunrise From the Space Station NASA astronaut Chris Williams photographed a stunning sunrise from the International Space Station on June 26. Because the station circles Earth so quickly, the crew sees sixteen sunrises and sixteen sunsets every single day. Cochrane points listeners to the full image on nasa.gov. NASA Seeks Volunteers for a Year-Long Mars Simulation Scientific American reports that NASA is recruiting for its next Moon and Mars Exploration Analog. Volunteers will live inside a habitat for a full year, facing the isolation and resource limits of a real mission. It begins no earlier than August 2027 at Johnson Space Center. Cochrane admits it is not for him, but calls it an amazing opportunity. NASA’s July Skywatching Guide Finally, Cochrane looks up. On July 11 and 12, a crescent Moon lines up with Mars, Saturn, and Uranus before dawn. Then July 14 brings a new Moon, a great window for the returning Comet 10P/Tempel 2, and prime Milky Way viewing. Saturn’s thin ring angle is a bonus through a telescope. Cochrane wraps with the usual housekeeping and a reminder that every GoDaddy click supports the show. As always, he signs off wishing listeners a great night.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Calvin #1: Free-threaded Python: past, present, and future The GIL has prevented true multi-threaded parallelism in CPython since the beginning — multiple past attempts to remove it failed on performance grounds Sam Gross at Meta finally solved it; his work became PEP 703 and ships as free-threaded CPython today Python 3.13 was experimental with 20–40% single-threaded slowdown; 3.14 brought that to 0–10% Python 3.15 (October 2026) delivers a unified ABI — one extension binary works on both GIL and free-threaded builds Already >50% of the top PyPI binary wheels support free threading Wouters predicts free-threaded becomes the default between 3.16–3.20 (2027–2031), with the GIL eventually disappearing next decade Michael #2: django-admin-site-search via Adam Parkin A global/site search modal for the Django admin, by Ahmed Aljawahiry. Hit cmd+k anywhere in the admin and you get a command-palette-style search window, kind of like the one in VS Code. It doesn't just search one model's list page. It searches your entire site in one box: App labels Model labels and field attributes Actual model instances (your data) Two ways to search the instances: model_char_fields (the default): runs an __icontains across every CharField (and subclasses) on the model. Zero config, works out of the box. admin_search_fields: defers to each ModelAdmin's existing get_search_results(), so it respects the search_fields you've already set up. The part I like: it's permission-aware out of the box. Users only see results for the apps and models they actually have view permission on, so you're not leaking anything through search. Results appear as you type, with throttling/debouncing so you're not hammering the server on every keystroke, and it's full keyboard nav: cmd+k to open, up/down to move, enter to go. It's responsive, does dark and light mode, and it pulls Django's built-in admin CSS variables so it just matches whatever admin theme you're running. Under the hood it's Alpine.js, but bundled into static so there's no external CDN dependency. Setup is about what you'd expect: pip install django-admin-site-search, add it to INSTALLED_APPS, mix the AdminSiteSearchView into your AdminSite, and drop a few template includes into base_site.html. Supports Python 3.8 through 3.14 and Django 3.2 through 6.0, MIT licensed, and everything is overridable if you want to skip certain models, add TextField matching, etc. Calvin #3: Qwen 3.6 27B is the sweet spot for local development Qwen 3.6 27B is being called the first local model that genuinely competes as a general-purpose intelligence — benchmarks put it at roughly mid-2025 frontier level (comparable to GPT-5 / Claude Sonnet 4.5) Runs locally via llama.cpp; on an M5 MacBook Max with 8-bit quantization + multi-token prediction, it hits ~32 tokens/sec using ~42GB RAM 4-bit quantization gets it under 18GB, runnable on 32GB devices; Nvidia RTX cards run it even faster The dense 27B is recommended over the faster MoE 35B A3B — author prefers higher quality output over raw speed Privacy and reliability are the pitch: fine-tunable, can't be taken down, suitable for sensitive/proprietary data Author sees this as a stepping stone — frontier open-weight models like GLM 5.2 are now locally runnable with company-grade hardware, and smarter-still local models are coming Michael #4: A large batch of PEPs are finalized A bunch of PEPs went from accepted to final. 668, 687, 691, 699, 701, 703, 728, 770, 773, 829 But this wasn't them making their way into CPython. It's an admin sorta thing. (Thanks PyCoders) See the commit. Extras Calvin: More fun bling for your terminal this time - https://charm.land/ Michael: Follow up from pls, What the pls? Thanks Pito.

Topics covered in this episode: Backup Docker volumes locally or to any S3 Pyodide 314.0 Release nb-cli: A Command-Line Interface for AI Agents and Notebook Automation Hindsight Agent Memory That Learns Extras Joke Watch on YouTube About the show Sponsored by us! Support our work through: Our courses at Talk Python AWS Community Day Midwest tomorrow Wednesday the 24th in downtown Indianapolis, Six Feet Up is sponsoring and there are 2 Sixies presenting Connect with the hosts Michael: Mastodon / BlueSky / X / LinkedIn Calvin: Mastodon / BlueSky / X / LinkedIn Show: Mastodon / BlueSky / X Join us on YouTube at pythonbytes.fm/live to be part of the audience.

Michael #1: Backup Docker volumes locally or to any S3 Via Bryan Weber (thanks Bryan!), who spotted it over on Virtualization HowTo. Find Bryan at bryanwweber.com. offen/docker-volume-backup is a lightweight companion container that backs up the volumes your apps actually depend on, then ships them somewhere safe. It's tiny: written in Go and about 25MB compressed, roughly 1/20th the size of the shell-based image (jareware/docker-volume-backup) that inspired it. Drop it into your docker compose file as a backup service, mount the volumes you care about as read-only, and you're off. Push backups to a pile of destinations: a local directory, plus any S3, WebDAV, Azure Blob Storage, Dropbox, Google Drive, or SSH-compatible target. Mix and match as many as you want in one run. Recurring cron-style backups in a Compose setup, or one-off backups straight from the Docker CLI. Production-friendly touches worth calling out: Rotates away old backups so you don't quietly fill the disk. GPG encryption for your archives. Notifications on finished and failed runs (so you find out about failures before you need the backup). Stop a container during backup for a consistent snapshot using a simple docker-volume-backup.stop-during-backup=true label, then auto-restart it. Run custom commands during the backup lifecycle (great for a database dump before the file copy). Docker Swarm support, plus arm64 and arm/v7 builds. Hello, Raspberry Pi homelab. Fun aside from Bryan: he searched our back catalog for this tool and the search came back so fast he thought it hadn't run. Love to hear it. Calvin #2: Pyodide 314.0 Release PEP 783 is the real news — Pyodide maintainers used to hand-build 300+ packages. Now anyone can publish Pyodide wheels to PyPI with cibuildwheel. The version jump from 0.29 to 314.0 is intentional — it now tracks the Python version, so 314.x = Python 3.14. Binary compatibility is locked per Python cycle, meaning packages you build today won't break on the next Pyodide release. sqlite3, ssl, and lzma are back in the default stdlib — no more await pyodide.loadPackage("sqlite3"). Bigger download, but a much smoother experience for newcomers. bigint precision bug is fixed — values above 2^53 were silently losing precision when crossing the Python/JS boundary. The new JsBigInt type makes the roundtrip correct. Worth flagging if anyone is doing numeric work in a browser app. Experimental TCP sockets in Node.js — you can now connect Pyodide to a real database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis tested) when running server-side. Blurs the line between "Python in the browser" and "Python runtime anywhere Wasm runs." Michael #3: nb-cli: A Command-Line Interface for AI Agents and Notebook Automation From Piyush Jain (Jupyter and LangChain maintainer) on the Jupyter blog: nb-cli: A Command-Line Interface for AI Agents and Notebook Automation. nb-cli is an experimental, Rust-based CLI to read, write, execute, and search Jupyter notebooks. The premise: agents are great at CLIs but terrible at hand-editing the nested JSON in an .ipynb, so let them operate on the notebook from the outside instead of running inside it. Works with or without a Jupyter server. No server? It reads/writes .ipynb files directly and talks to kernels over ZeroMQ. Connected to a live JupyterLab, your edits show up instantly via Y.js (the same CRDT Jupyter uses). Smart output format: instead of token-heavy JSON or ambiguous plain markdown, it uses @@cell / @@output sentinels with inline metadata. Less wasted context, unambiguous structure, and it degrades gracefully on truncation. The payoff is composability. "Add a summary section and run it" becomes one shell pipeline instead of six agent tool calls. And nb search notebook.ipynb --with-errors returns only the failing cells, so the agent skips the cells that worked. Claude Code tie-in: it ships as an agent skill. npx skills install jupyter-ai-contrib/nb-cli and your agent can drive notebooks via nb. Out of jupyter-ai-contrib, which aims to become an official Jupyter AI subproject. Still early (crates.io is at v0.0.5), so kick the tires before anything load-bearing. See also marimo-pair. Calvin #4: Hindsight Agent Memory That Learns AI agents forget everything between sessions — Hindsight gives them persistent memory that learns over time Simple three-method API: retain(), recall(), reflect() — store, retrieve, and reason over memories TEMPR retrieval runs semantic, keyword, graph, and temporal search in parallel for accurate results Automatically consolidates related facts into durable observations instead of piling up duplicates pip install hindsight-all runs the entire server in-process; integrates with LangChain, LlamaIndex, Pydantic AI, CrewAI, and more Extras Calvin: Clanker: A Word For The Machine **Ponytail — You know him.

JDK 26 optimise la JVM dans ses moindres recoins, le SDK Java d'Agent2Agent passe en 1.0, Micronaut 5 est là. Côté terrain, un retour d'expérience après 40 jours à coder avec 100 % d'IA : génie ou junior, Alzheimer numérique et dette technique invisible. Pendant ce temps, GitLab restructure, Microsoft suspend ses licences Claude Code, et un développeur injecte un prompt destructeur dans sa lib JUnit. La révolution IA a un coût et les boites commencent à s'en rendre compte. Enregistré le 12 juin 2026 Téléchargement de l'épisode LesCastCodeurs-Episode-341.mp3 ou en vidéo sur YouTube. News Langages Les améliorations de performance dans le JDK 26 https://inside.java/2026/06/09/jdk-26-performance-improvements/ Côté bibliothèques, l'API LazyConstant (anciennement StableValue) fait son entrée en prévisualisation pour permettre une initialisation paresseuse, sécurisée pour les threads et optimisée par le mécanisme de constant-folding de la JVM. L'extraction de chaînes de caractères via MemorySegment::getString a été revue pour réduire considérablement les allocations intermédiaires et les copies en mémoire off-heap, accélérant fortement les traitements sur les chemins critiques (hot paths). La méthode générée automatiquement hashCode() pour les classes de type record a été optimisée par la JVM pour atteindre un niveau de performance équivalent à une implémentation écrite manuellement. Le ramasse-miettes G1 bénéficie du JEP 522 qui redessine sa table de cartes (card-table) afin de réduire les coûts de synchronisation des barrières d'écriture, offrant un gain de débit de 5 % à 15 % sur les applications manipulant énormément de références d'objets. Grâce au JEP 516 (Project Leyden), le cache d'objets Ahead-of-Time (AOT) adopte un format de flux agnostique, ce qui lui permet d'être compatible avec n'importe quel Garbage Collector, y compris le ramasse-miettes à très faible latence ZGC. Le démarrage de la JVM s'accélère par défaut lorsqu'aucune taille de tas n'est configurée, car HotSpot n'applique plus de pourcentage initial (InitialRAMPercentage) mais démarre directement avec la taille minimale (MinHeapSize) pour éviter d'allouer des métadonnées inutiles. Les threads virtuels gagnent en robustesse en étant désormais capables de céder la main (yield) pendant les phases d'initialisation des classes, éliminant ainsi le risque de famine des threads porteurs (carrier threads). Le compilateur C2 JIT améliore son modèle de coût pour la vectorisation des boucles (SIMD) et se montre maintenant capable de compiler et d'optimiser des méthodes dotées de listes de paramètres extrêmement longues. Librairies Release candidate du A2A Java SDK supportant versions 0.3 et 1.0 en même temps https://medium.com/google-cloud/a2a-java-sdk-1-0-0-cr1-released-f0c651ec9139 Dernière étape avant la GA : Toutes les fonctionnalités prévues pour la version 1.0 sont finalisées.

Flexibilité : Fournit un gestionnaire de routage (InteractionsHandler) pour créer facilement des serveurs proxy ou des backends intermédiaires traitant les interactions Gemini. Spring Boot 4.1 https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Spring-Boot-4.1-Release-Notes Support natif pour Spring gRPC permettant de créer et tester facilement des applications clientes et serveurs basées sur Netty ou des Servlets via HTTP/2 Introduction du lazy fetching pour les connexions JDBC via la propriété spring.datasource.connection-fetch=lazy afin de ne prendre une connexion du pool que lorsqu'un Statement est réellement exécuté Amélioration de l'auto-configuration de Jackson permettant de définir globalement les contraintes de lecture/écriture pour les formats JSON, XML et CBOR via des propriétés de configuration Sécurisation des clients HTTP bloquants et réactifs face aux attaques SSRF grâce à l'introduction d'un InetAddressFilter bloquant les requêtes sortantes vers des adresses spécifiques Améliorations majeures autour d'OpenTelemetry avec le support complet des variables d'environnement OTel, la possibilité de désactiver le SDK via une propriété globale et l'ajout du support SSL sur les exporters OTLP Ajout de l'auto-configuration pour l'utilisation de Spring Batch avec MongoDB incluant un nouveau starter dédié spring-boot-batch-data-mongo Auto-configuration des endpoints @RedisListener sans nécessiter la déclaration manuelle d'un RedisMessageListenerContainer Dépréciation du support de Apache Derby (projet arrêté), suppression définitive du mode layertools du JAR et réintroduction du support de Spock 2.4 (avec Groovy 5) Upgrade des dépendances majeures de l'écosystème avec notamment Spring Framework 7.0.8, Spring Security 7.1.0 et Micrometer 1.17.0 Outillage Vous êtes plutôt endive ou chicorée ? La librairie Chicory qui permet d'exécuter du code WASM à partir de son application Java est forkée et rejointe la Bytecode Alliance pour continuer son développement https://bytecodealliance.org/articles/endive-and-the-next-chapter-of-webassembly-on-the-jvm Annonce d'Endive : Nouveau projet hébergé par la Bytecode Alliance ; fork de Chicory (moteur WebAssembly pur Java, sans dépendance native). ​Objectif principal : Permettre aux développeurs Java d'intégrer, charger et déployer des modules Wasm nativement via les workflows Java habituels. ​Compilateur "Redline" : Intégration à venir de Redline (basé sur Cranelift) pour compiler le Wasm en code machine natif ; performances comparables à Rust/Wasmtime. ​Zéro dépendance (Java 25+) : Grâce à l'API standard Foreign Function & Memory (Project Panama), l'exécution à vitesse native se fait sans composants externes. ​Modèle de Composants (Component Model) : Support futur prévu pour consommer des composants (Rust, Go, JS, etc.) via des interfaces typées et sécurisées directement dans la JVM. ​Prochaines étapes : Fusion de Redline, conformité stricte aux specs Wasm (dont WasmGC) et amélioration du support WASI. Un visualisateur de sessions de travail avec Antigravity https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/06/11/antigravity-brain-visualizer/ Un projet open source construit avec Micronaut, LangChain4j et GraalVM pour analyser les sessions de travail avec l'outil de développement agentique Antigravity (de Google) Analyse toutes les étapes, les requêtes utilisateur, les outils utilisés, les erreurs rencontrées, les réponses du modèle Gemini fait une analyse pour comprendre les moments clés de cette session de travail Outil buildé avec l'aide d'Antigravity lui-même SBX-Kits : des environnements de développement simplifiés pour les débutants (et les autres) https://k33g.org/20260501-sbx-kits.html Philippe Charrière (:whale: ) présente SBX-Kits (Sandbox Kits), une initiative personnelle visant à simplifier radicalement la mise en place d'environnements de développement pour les débutants, en éliminant la complexité d'installation des outils traditionnels. Chaque "kit" est une archive prête à l'emploi contenant un outil de développement spécifique (comme un langage, un framework ou une base de données) configuré pour s'exécuter de manière isolée et portable. La philosophie du projet repose sur le principe de "zéro configuration" et "zéro dépendance globale", permettant de tester une technologie ou de commencer à coder immédiatement sans polluer son système d'exploitation. L'approche technique s'appuie sur des scripts légers et des binaires portables pré-packagés, offrant une alternative plus simple et moins gourmande en ressources que les conteneurs Docker ou les configurations d'IDE complexes pour l'apprentissage. L'objectif à terme est de proposer un catalogue de kits couvrant les technologies courantes (JavaScript, Python, petites bases de données) pour faciliter les ateliers de programmation et le prototypage rapide. De nombreux kits sont disponibles sur https://github.com/docker/sbx-kits-contrib ghui: une interface utilisateur en ligne de commande (TUI) interactive pour GitHub https://github.com/kitlangton/ghui ghui est un outil en ligne de commande (TUI) écrit en Rust qui fournit une interface visuelle, interactive et rapide directement dans le terminal pour interagir avec GitHub. Il permet de gérer ses pull requests, ses issues et ses notifications sans avoir à ouvrir son navigateur web ou à taper de longues commandes avec la CLI officielle de GitHub. L'outil propose une navigation fluide au clavier, des raccourcis efficaces, et permet de réaliser des actions courantes comme valider une PR, ajouter des commentaires, attribuer des reviewers ou inspecter les logs des GitHub Actions. Conçu pour être extrêmement réactif, ghui s'intègre naturellement dans le flux de travail des développeurs adeptes du terminal et du mode "sans souris". Sortie de Homebrew 6.0.0 https://brew.sh/2026/06/11/homebrew-6.0.0/ Introduction du mécanisme de sécurité Tap Trust : comme les dépôts tiers (taps) peuvent exécuter du code Ruby arbitraire non sandboxé sur la machine, Homebrew demande désormais une confiance explicite de l'utilisateur avant d'évaluer ou d'exécuter leur code. L'API JSON interne devient le choix par défaut, offrant un système plus léger et beaucoup plus rapide pour les développeurs. Sécurisation renforcée de l'environnement avec l'implémentation du sandboxing sur Linux. Évolution des comportements par défaut basés sur un sondage utilisateur : le mode "ask" est activé par défaut pour les développeurs, affichant un résumé des dépendances et une demande de confirmation avant toute action de brew install ou brew upgrade. Améliorations notables des performances globales, notamment un boost de ~30 % sur la vitesse de la commande brew leaves et la parallélisation de la récupération des bottles (binaires) lors des mises à jour. Ajout du support initial pour la prochaine version d'Apple, macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Multiples optimisations pour brew bundle, incluant une gestion plus sécurisée des installations de paquets npm. Méthodologies Retour d'expérience très détaillé et 100% humain sur 40 jours avec une équipe 100% AI hormis le superviseur https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/jai-vir%C3%A9-mon-%C3%A9quipe-de-dev-pour-une-100-ia-pendant-40-luc-bonnin-jlgjf/ Voici le résumé en bullet points : Expérimentation de 40 jours : remplacer une équipe de dev par 100% IA agentique (Cursor) sur un vrai projet en production (playthatsheet.com, 200k lignes de code legacy) Chiffres bruts : 2,3 milliards de tokens consommés, 1 477 prompts, 260 564 lignes ajoutées (+145%), 59% du code final produit par l'IA ROI vertigineux à court terme : 9 mois de travail humain livrés en 40 jours, coût total 260$ d'abonnement + 15 jours de supervision, ROI x18 Profil psy de l'IA : Alzheimer (oublis de contexte), schizophrène (change de méthodo), ado de 12 ans (refait les mêmes erreurs), oscille entre génie et junior sans prévenir Effet iceberg : la dette technique ne disparaît pas, elle se camoufle et s'accélère ; hallucinations = bombes à retardement détectables uniquement par relecture humaine ligne par ligne Paradoxe du bateau de Thésée : perte de paternité et de maîtrise fine du code, baisse de l'autonomie du dev humain qui valide sans avoir construit Arnaque du "monkey money" : consommation de tokens opaque, non corrélée à la complexité (écart de 350% sur des prompts identiques), facturation imprévisible donc impossible à budgéter Syndrome du bazooka : les devs utilisent l'IA même pour changer une couleur CSS, atrophie progressive des compétences et coût écologique délirant Risque stratégique : dépendance irréversible aux vendeurs de tokens (Nvidia, Anthropic, OpenAI), business non rentable qui devra augmenter ses prix Conseil final : approche Pareto, garder 20% du temps en code "fait main", nommer un responsable stratégie IA, l'humain senior reste irremplaçable pour superviser Une libraries de test JUnit cache un prompt qui demande aux coding agents d'effacer les tests https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/05/fed-up-with-vibe-coders-dev-sneaks-data-nuking-prompt-injection-into-their-code/ Agacé par les « vibe coders », un développeur introduit une injection de prompt destructrice dans son code Le développeur de jqwik (un moteur de tests pour JUnit 5) a volontairement inséré une injection de prompt dans la version 1.10.0 de sa bibliothèque Java pour saboter le travail des agents d'IA. L'instruction injectée via la sortie standard (stdout) ordonne textuellement aux LLM d'ignorer les consignes précédentes et de supprimer l'intégralité du code et des tests jqwik du projet. Pour dissimuler cette action aux yeux des développeurs humains, le mainteneur a utilisé des séquences d'échappement ANSI qui effacent la ligne d'injection dans les émulateurs de terminaux interactifs. La modification a été découverte par un utilisateur qui a pointé du doigt les risques majeurs et disproportionnés pour les machines des utilisateurs, bien que certains outils comme Claude d'Anthropic aient détecté et bloqué la consigne malveillante. Face aux critiques de la communauté et aux accusations de comportement infantile ou potentiellement illégal, le développeur a mis à jour ses notes de version pour documenter explicitement son opposition à l'usage de son outil par des IA, avant de refuser tout commentaire supplémentaire sur conseil de son avocat. La réalité du rôle de Principal Engineer https://leaddev.com/career-development/reality-being-principal-engineer Le passage au rôle de Principal Engineer marque une transition majeure où les compétences techniques ne suffisent plus, l'impact se mesurant désormais à travers l'influence, la stratégie et la capacité à aligner la technique avec les objectifs business. Contrairement aux attentes, le quotidien est souvent marqué par une forme d'isolement, car le poste se situe à l'intersection de la direction (qui attend des solutions) et des équipes techniques (qui attendent des directives), sans appartenance directe à un groupe précis. Le rôle exige d'accepter une grande part d'ambiguïté et l'absence de retours immédiats, les projets et les décisions stratégiques mettant parfois des mois ou des années à porter leurs fruits. La gestion du temps devient un défi critique, nécessitant de savoir naviguer entre les sollicitations constantes, la présence en réunion et le besoin de préserver des moments de réflexion approfondie pour concevoir des visions à long terme. La réussite à ce niveau repose sur le développement de compétences humaines pointues (soft skills), notamment la négociation, la communication vulgarisée auprès des profils non techniques, et la capacité à faire grandir les autres ingénieurs par le mentorat. Sécurité Une attaque de la chaîne d'approvisionnement npm utilise binding.gyp pour compromettre des dizaines de paquets https://cybersecuritynews.com/binding-gyp-supply-chain-attack-compromises-dozens-of-npm-packages/ Une nouvelle variante du ver auto-propageable "Shai-Hulud", baptisée "Miasma", cible l'écosystème npm (et PyPI sous le nom de "Hades") en dissimulant son exécution dans le fichier binding.gyp au lieu des scripts classiques preinstall ou postinstall. La technique, surnommée "Phantom Gyp", exploite le fait que npm lance automatiquement node-gyp rebuild dès qu'un fichier binding.gyp est présent à la racine d'un paquet pour compiler des modules natifs C/C++, exécutant ainsi le code malveillant dès la commande npm install. L'attaque contourne la plupart des outils de sécurité traditionnels car l'injection s'appuie sur l'évaluation récursive de commandes (via la syntaxe ) ou directement sur la fonction eval() de Python sous-jacente à GYP, cachée sous n'importe quelle clé du fichier. Le script malveillant télécharge un runtime alternatif (Bun) pour échapper aux détections comportementales de Node.js, puis moissonne les identifiants et secrets des développeurs et des environnements CI/CD (npm, GitHub, AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, HashiCorp Vault). Plus de 57 paquets npm (dont le SDK serveur de Vapi ou des outils liés à l'IA) et des dizaines de paquets PyPI ont été infectés via des comptes de mainteneurs compromis, le ver republiant automatiquement de nouvelles versions vérolées en utilisant les jetons volés. Loi, société et organisation Restructuration chez Gitlab https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-act-2/ GitLab entame une restructuration majeure pour s'adapter à l'ère de l'intelligence artificielle agentique, incluant une réduction d'effectifs planifiée de manière transparente et ouverte. L'entreprise prévoit de réduire de 30 % le nombre de pays où elle maintient de petites équipes, d'aplatir sa hiérarchie en supprimant jusqu'à trois niveaux de gestion, et de réorganiser la R&D en une soixantaine d'équipes plus petites et autonomes. Les processus internes vont être revus en intégrant des agents d'IA pour automatiser les revues, les approbations et les passages de relais afin d'accélérer le rythme de travail. La stratégie repose sur la conviction que le logiciel sera bientôt écrit par des machines et dirigé par des humains, ce qui va multiplier la demande de logiciels et transformer le rôle des ingénieurs vers la résolution de problèmes complexes. Sur le plan technique, GitLab reconstruit son infrastructure sous-jacente (notamment Git) pour supporter la charge massive générée par les agents d'IA, tout en misant sur l'orchestration du cycle de vie, la centralisation du contexte des données et une gouvernance intégrée. Le modèle économique évolue vers un système hybride combinant les abonnements classiques et une tarification à la consommation pour le travail effectué par les agents d'IA. Un LLM local sur un mac pourrait coûter plus cher en électricité qu'un modèle hébergé sur OpenRouter dans le cloud https://www.williamangel.net/blog/2026/05/17/offline-llm-energy-use.html Conclusion : L'inférence locale sur Mac M5 Max est 3x plus chère et 2x plus lente que le cloud (OpenRouter). Électricité : Négligeable (~0,02 $/heure pour 50-100W). Matériel (Le vrai coût) : Achat du Mac à 4 299 $; l'amortissement sur 3 à 5 ans plombe la rentabilité horaire. Coût au million de tokens (Gemma 4 31b) : Mac M5 Max : 0,40 à4, 79 (pour 10-40 tokens/s). OpenRouter : 0,38 à0, 50 (pour 60-70 tokens/s). Verdict pro : Le temps humain perdu à cause de la lenteur locale coûte infiniment plus cher que les tokens cloud. Privilégier les API (Anthropic, OpenRouter). Ai didn't kill your junior pipeline https://andrewmurphy.io/blog/ai-didnt-kill-your-junior-pipeline-you-did L'IA n'a pas tué le recrutement des juniors, les entreprises l'ont fait elles-mêmes, par effet de mode. Sans juniors, pas de futurs seniors : on retire l'échelle qui nous a tous fait monter. Tout le monde pêche dans le même bassin de seniors sans le réapprovisionner, pénurie garantie dans 3-5 ans. Une équipe 100% senior + IA est fragile : un départ et tout le savoir tacite s'évapore. Les juniors posent les "pourquoi ?" qui révèlent les bugs et processus absurdes ; l'IA, elle, exécute sans questionner. Les seniors s'atrophient aussi en déléguant leur réflexion à l'IA, pince à double effet sur les compétences. Dépendre des outils IA, c'est sous-traiter sa stratégie talents à des fournisseurs dont les prix vont tripler. Solution : redéfinir le rôle junior (revue de code IA + mentorat), pas le supprimer. Les rapports internes de Microsoft révèlent la crise des coûts de l'IA : les agents coûtent plus cher que les employés humains https://fortune.com/2026/05/22/microsoft-ai-cost-problem-tokens-agents/ Des données et rapports internes chez Microsoft et d'autres géants de la tech ébranlent la promesse de rentabilité de l'IA, révélant que le déploiement d'agents autonomes à l'échelle de l'entreprise revient souvent plus cher que de payer des humains pour le même travail. Le modèle de tarification à l'usage (basé sur les tokens) se heurte à la nature même des architectures agentiques : contrairement à un simple chatbot, un agent boucle, enchaîne les appels d'outils, crée des sous-agents et auto-évalue son code, ce qui multiplie la consommation de tokens par un facteur de 5 à 30, voire jusqu'à 1 000 fois pour des tâches de programmation complexes. L'impact financier sur les budgets de calcul cloud est immédiat ; par exemple, Uber a entièrement épuisé l'intégralité de son budget annuel 2026 dédié au codage par IA en l'espace de seulement quatre mois. Face à cette explosion des coûts, des retours en arrière drastiques sont observés : Microsoft a ainsi commencé à suspendre une grande partie de ses licences internes Claude Code pour rediriger d'urgence ses milliers de développeurs vers sa propre solution moins onéreuse, GitHub Copilot CLI. Les directeurs techniques (CTO) et acheteurs de solutions logicielles qui ont signé des contrats pluriannuels basés sur des projections de réduction de masse salariale se retrouvent pris au piège, les gains réels de productivité ne parvenant pas à compenser les factures d'infrastructure exorbitantes.

Topics covered in this episode: Vulnerability and malware checks in uv HTTP GET requests with the Python standard library Millions of AI agents imperiled by critical vulnerability in open source package alembic-git-revisions Extras Joke Watch on YouTube About the show Goodbye and Thanks Brian Thanks Calvin for being part of this and future episodes! Also new time for the live show. Thanks Brian for all the hard work over the years. Calvin #1: Vulnerability and malware checks in uv release just yesterday by Astral https://astral.sh/blog/uv-audit uv audit scans dependencies for known vulnerabilities and abandoned packages via the OSV database — runs 4–10x faster than pip-audit Malware check runs on every install/sync, catching actively malicious packages (credential stealers, etc.) before they execute — including ones PyPI quarantined but lockfiles can still reference Enable malware scanning with UV_MALWARE_CHECK=1 — it's opt-in and in preview Future roadmap includes a resolver that steers toward vulnerability-free versions and install-time warnings scoped to newly added deps only Michael #2: HTTP GET requests with the Python standard library If you're doing HTTP in Python, you're probably using one of three popular libraries: requests, httpx, or urllib3. There have been issues with httpx lately. Niquest is another option: Drop-in replacement for Requests. Automatic HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3. WebSocket, and SSE included. But maybe less is more, especially in the age of agentic AI A good candidate needs two things to be true at once, not one: the used surface is small, and the behavior behind that surface is shallow. Calvin #3: Millions of AI agents imperiled by critical vulnerability in open source package "BadHost" (CVE-2026-48710) is a critical vulnerability in Starlette — the ASGI framework underlying FastAPI — with 325 million weekly downloads; also affects vLLM, LiteLLM, and most MCP server tooling The exploit is trivial: injecting a single character into an HTTP Host header bypasses path-based authentication, and can lead to credential theft, SSRF, and in some cases remote code execution MCP servers are a prime target since they store credentials for external services (email, databases, cloud accounts) — exposed data in the wild includes biopharma clinical trial DBs, full mailboxes, HR/PII pipelines, and AWS topology Fix is available — patch to Starlette 1.0.1 immediately; use the free scanner at mcp-scan.nemesis.services to check if your servers are still running a vulnerable version Open source sustainability footnote: the maintainer triages near-daily security reports solo, in his free time — most are AI-generated noise, and real ones like this still compete for the same evenings and weekends Michael #4: alembic-git-revisions By Julien Danjou from Mergify Automatic Alembic migration chaining based on git commit history. No more Multiple head revisions are present for given argument 'head'. See the introductory article Caused by two migrations landed with the same down_revision, and Alembic doesn't know which one comes first. The fix is always the same: someone manually edits the migration file to re-chain the revisions. The insight: git already knows the order Extras Calvin: GNU make can do pattern matching in the target. Not new at all, mentioned in the 1994-era docs. just and task don't have this super power on the target name yet. train-%: uv run ./train.py $* --save-hyper-params --overwrite $(TRAIN_ARGS) Michael: Updated my HTTP client using packages from httpx to httpx2: listmonk, umami, and memberful.

Join us as Mike Fiedler (AWS Hero, PyPI Safety & Security Engineer, Python Software Foundation) makes the case for eliminating long-lived credentials from your release workflow - before an attacker does it for you. Mike walks through the real-world incidents that motivated Trusted Publishing, how OIDC-based short-lived tokens work under the hood, and the step-by-step process for setting it up in GitHub Actions. You'll learn how the 2024 Ultralytics compromise was forensically investigated thanks to Sigstore attestations, why that API token in your repo is just a password with a fancy hat, common pitfalls that will have you debugging for four hours, and why deleting your old token after setup is the step everyone forgets. PyPI went from 10% Trusted Publishing adoption in February 2024 to 36% today - this episode is how you become part of that number.

Dwayne McDaniel, developer advocate at GitGuardian.com, joins host Priyanka Raghavan to talk about the engineering challenges of secrets management. They explore what "secrets" really are in modern systems—far beyond passwords—including API keys, tokens, certificates, and machine identities, and how "secret sprawl" emerges across the SDLC. Drawing on reports from GitGuardian and Verizon, they discuss the growing scale of secret leaks and why credential abuse and phishing remain dominant attack vectors. They examine common leak points—from code repos and logs to CI/CD pipelines, containers, and SaaS integrations—and how cloud, DevOps, and AI tooling are amplifying risks. Priyanka quizzes Dwayne about recent supply chain attacks from pyPi and trivy ecosystems, highlighting recurring root causes like poor access control, long-lived credentials, and weak security hygiene. Finally, they consider detection, response, and modern solutions—short-lived credentials, secret scanning, and identity-based approaches like OWASP NHIR and SPIFFE/SPIRE—ending with practical advice for engineers to reduce blast radius and design for secure secret lifecycle management.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Brian #1: Using Django Tasks in production Tim Schilling shares how the Djangonaut Space website has been using Django's new tasks framework and some of the info missing from the official Django docs. Tasks require a third party package, django-tasks-db to actually run the tasks. Article walks through all changes necessary to get an email process running to notify admins of new testimonials. Cool simple example. With the db backend, you can monitor progress of tasks in the admin, to see which tasks are scheduled, completed, or have errors. Some wishes for the community to implement new tutorial in the Django docs Django Debug toolbar panel for tasks test/mock backend Great title for wish list: Thinks I'd like to see, but I'm too lazy to implement myself. Michael #2: Co-authored with Claude? Via Nik T. We don't put “executed on macOS”, “edited with PyCharm”, etc. in our commits. Why Claude? Seems like a growth hack to me, that I don't really care to participate in. Some projects that have formalized their thoughts on this: The Generative AI Policy Landscape in Open Source Adjust to turn off in ~/.claude/settings.json see the docs. { "attribution": { "commit": "", "pr": "" } } Brian #3: PyPI packages are increasing rapidly Artem Golubin There's been an increase of published packages per week on PyPI A pretty big increase in the last handful of months. 30% increase since 2025, clearly due to AI Artem is building hexora, a malicious Python code detector. Cool package too, it can: Audit project dependencies to catch potential supply-chain attacks Detect malicious scripts found on platforms like Pastebin, GitHub, or open directories Analyze IoC files from past security incidents Audit new packages uploaded to PyPi. Artem is using hexora to analyze recently published pypi packages and many are obviously vibecoded and trigger false positives for abuses of eval, exec, and subprocess Side note: I don't think that's necessarily a false positive. Not malicious, but maybe a stupid-code-detector? Lots are LLM related, Lots have bots contributing code Publishing rate is crazy, dozens to hundreds of published versions in a day is a bug, not a feature Brian's proposal, PyPI should limit releases per day for any package to something a sane human would do, even if they make a mistake on a release, to maybe like 2-3, definitely under 10, in a day. And if the repo has obvious agent contributors listed, maybe lower to the limit to 1-2 a day? Honestly, “move fast and break things” doesn't apply to breaking the commons. Michael #4: httpx2 More on the httpx, httpxyz, etc changes: Pydantic people started their own fork, httpx2. Michiel says “while we think httpxyz was definitely needed, we welcome httpx2 and think it should be the ‘blessed' fork.” Kludex, who is among other things maintainer of Starlette, was considering a fork As it stands, httpx2 is lacking the performance improvements they added to httpxyz. But it will not be long before they will add those, too. Also they already made some smart decisions: they are switching from certifi to truststore they are switching to compression.zstd on Python 3.14+, enabling zstd compression by default they merged httpcore and vendored it in their repository Discussion on Hacker News Extras Brian: The Four Horsemen of the LLM Apocalypse - Anarcat Django/JetBrains 2026 developer survey is open Pyrefly 1.0 : “meaning we are confident that Pyrefly is ready for production use.” Michael: Just about ready to release Python Web Security: OWASP Top 10 with Agentic AI course.

Send us Fan MailA normal data breach steals names and passwords. This one may have stolen the recipe for building the world's most powerful AI models, and it happened through software most people will never notice until it breaks. We follow the Mercor breach from the first warning signs to the moment poisoned Python packages hit PyPI and spread in minutes across systems that were set to auto-update.  We walk through what Mercor actually does in the AI economy, especially RLHF (Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback), and why that behind-the-scenes work shapes how tools from OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google behave. Then we unpack Lite LLM, the open source “plumbing” that connects apps to multiple AI services, and how a supply chain attack can bypass the company you're targeting by compromising the dependencies everyone trusts. From there, the focus shifts to the fallout: contractors whose Social Security numbers and identity documents may be exposed, companies scrambling to assess backdoors and credential theft, and the bigger fear that proprietary AI training data sets and labeling strategies are being auctioned on the dark web. We also dig into the compliance controversy around SOC2 and ISO 27001 style certifications and what happens when security audits become performance instead of protection. If you care about cybersecurity, data privacy, AI governance, and open source risk, listen through to the end for concrete steps you can take right now. Subscribe, share this with a friend who uses AI tools, and leave a review with your take on who should be held accountable.Support the show

When you fire up Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI coding agent, it launches with your full system permissions, your SSH keys, cloud credentials, browser passwords, every file on your machine. Most developers never think twice about it.Luke Hinds did. And then he built something about it.Luke is the creator of Sigstore, the cryptographic signing infrastructure now used by PyPI, Homebrew, GitHub, and Google as the industry standard for software supply chain security. In this episode, he joins Chris to talk about why he's watching the industry make the exact same mistake it made a decade ago, and what he built to try to stop it.We cover the full picture: why application-layer guardrails and system prompts fundamentally fail as security boundaries for AI agents (and what kernel-level enforcement actually means), the .md file as an emerging control plane attack surface, the OpenClaw wake-up call and what the skills marketplace ecosystem gets structurally wrong about trust and provenance, the approval fatigue problem and Anthropic's 17% false negative rate on Claude Code's auto-mode classifier, extending SLSA and Sigstore attestation frameworks to AI-generated code, and why LLM-as-a-judge may not be the silver bullet many are hoping for.Luke also makes a broader argument about where this is all heading — volumes of AI-generated code growing faster than human capacity to review it, junior engineers being priced out of the industry, and an aging cohort of engineers who can actually read and reason about code at depth. It's a candid, technically grounded conversation from someone who's been in open source security for 20+ years and has seen this movie before.nono is at nono.sh, one line to install, one line to run.

When a package is removed from PyPI, it disappears from the index and project page, but the actual distribution files remain accessible if you have a direct URL to them. uv.lock uniquely preserves access to ghost packages. Because uv.lock stores direct URLs to distribution files rather than relying on the index API at install time, uv sync can successfully install packages that have already been removed, even with cache disabled. No other Python lock file implementation tested behaved this way. This creates a supply chain attack vector. An attacker could upload a malicious package, immediately remove it to dodge automated security scanning, and still have it installable via a uv.lock file, or combine this with the xz-style strategy of hiding malicious additions in large, auto-generated lock files that nobody reviews. Removed package names can be hijacked with version collisions. When an owner removes a package, the name can be reclaimed by someone else who can upload different distribution types under the same version number, as happened with "umap." Lock files help until you regenerate them, then you're exposed. Your dependency scanning needs to cover lock files, not just manifest files. Scanning only pyproject.toml or requirements.txt misses threats embedded in lock files, which is where the actual resolved URLs and hashes live. Brian #2: Fence for Sandboxing Suggested by Martin Häcker “Some coding platforms have since integrated built-in sandboxing (e.g., Claude Code) to restrict write access to directories and/or network connectivity. However, these safeguards are typically optional and not enabled by default.” “JY Tan (on cc) has extracted the sandboxing logic from Claude Code and repackaged it into a standalone Go binary.” Source code on GitHub: https://github.com/Use-Tusk/fence Related: Simon Willison lethal trifecta for AI agents article from June 2025 Claude Code Sandboxing Michael #3: MALUS: Liberate Open Source via Paul Bauer The service will generate the specs of a library with one AI and build the newly licensed library using the specs with another AI circumventing the licensing and copyright rules. AI that has not been trained on open source reads the docs and API signature, creates a spec. Another AI processes that spec into working software. Is it a real site? Are they accepting real money, or are they just trying to cause a stir around copyright?

Three Buddy Problem - Episode 91: This week we dig into Google's new cyber threat disruption unit announced at RSAC, Kaspersky confirming Coruna is a direct evolution of Operation Triangulation, and a cascading supply chain compromise that chained through LiteLLM, Trivy, and Checkmarx into thousands of software pipelines. Plus, VCs and the breathless AI hype, Apple's iOS 26.4 and silent patches, the FCC's ban on foreign-made routers, and Symantec catching an APT looking for Chinese military data.

A PyPI software supply chain attack hit LiteLLM — a library pulled into developer environments 97 million times a month — and if you use it, you may already be compromised. This wasn't a fake package or a typo-squatting trick. Attackers stole real credentials, published malicious code as the real thing, and walked out with SSH keys, cloud credentials, Kubernetes tokens, API keys, and more — all encrypted and sent home before anyone knew what happened.I'm doing something I've never done before: an emergency episode, recorded and published immediately because this is that serious. I brought in Dr. Mike Saylor, co-author of our book Learning Ransomware Response and Recovery, and my co-host Prasanna Malaiyandi to break down exactly what happened, how to find out if you were hit, and what you need to do to protect yourself going forward.We open with a story from 1982 that perfectly captures what this attack really is — getting poisoned by something you trusted completely. That framing matters. This wasn't a failure of the library. It was a failure of the supply chain. And it can happen again.Chapters:00:00:00 - Intro: Why this is an emergency episode00:01:35 - Meet the guests: Dr. Mike Saylor and Prasanna Malaiyandi00:02:31 - The Tylenol poisoning analogy and what it means for software supply chains00:05:51 - What LiteLLM is and what the malware actually did to your environment00:09:04 - Dependencies explained: why you're affected even if you didn't install LiteLLM directly00:12:24 - How to find out if you were hit: the first things to check right now00:14:23 - IOCs and TTPs: what to look for in your logs and on your systems00:19:07 - Network indicators: unusual traffic and what it tells you00:22:12 - How security teams can find out if developers installed it without telling anyone00:30:38 - Action items for the future: inventory, pinning, and hash verification00:36:55 - Sandboxing new downloads before they touch your environment00:37:59 - Immutable backups: why this attack makes the case for them00:40:33 - Modern authentication: MFA, its limits, and why passkeys matter00:46:53 - Where to get threat intel so you hear about attacks like this faster00:53:23 - Wrap-upIf you installed or upgraded LiteLLM on or after March 24, 2026 without a pinned version, stop what you're doing and listen to this episode first.The story:https://futuresearch.ai/blog/litellm-pypi-supply-chain-attack/ https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/litellm-compromised-pypi-teampcp-supply-chain-campaign/ https://snyk.io/articles/poisoned-security-scanner-backdooring-litellm/ https://www.wiz.io/blog/threes-a-crowd-teampcp-trojanizes-litellm-in-continuation-of-campaignhttps://checkmarx.com/zero-post/python-pypi-supply-chain-attack-colorama/ https://www.upwind.io/feed/litellm-pypi-supply-chain-attack-malicious-release https://docs.litellm.ai/blog/security-update-march-2026 https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2026/03/25/teampcp-supply-chain-attacks/ https://www.darktrace.com/resources/the-cisos-guide-to-cyber-aihttps://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/litellm-compromised-pypi-teampcp-supply-chain-campaign/Resources:https://www.stopransomware.comhttps://www.cisa.govhttps://www.cve.org/

Microsoft just dropped patches for SIX actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities — and that's just the beginning. In this week's Hacking News, we break down the February 2026 Patch Tuesday emergency, North Korea's Lazarus Group poisoning npm and PyPI through fake job recruiters, nation-state hackers weaponizing Google's Gemini AI (including malware that writes its own payloads), a massive Dutch telecom breach affecting 6.2 million people, and a U.S. government contractor breach that ballooned from 4 million to potentially tens of millions affected. This is Exploit Brokers by Forgebound Research — cybersecurity news, threat intelligence, and insights. Whether you're a security analyst, developer, or just someone who wants to stay informed, this episode has something for you.

This episode covers multiple active threats and security changes. It warns of an actively exploited critical BeyondTrust remote access vulnerability (CVE-2026-1731, CVSS 9.9) enabling pre-authentication remote code execution in Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access, noting SaaS was patched while on-prem deployments require urgent manual updates and may already be compromised. Microsoft details an evolution of the ClickFix social engineering technique where victims are tricked into running NSLookup commands that use attacker-controlled DNS responses as a malware staging channel, leading to payload delivery (including a Python-based RAT) and persistence via startup shortcuts, alongside increased Lumma Stealer activity.  Cybersecurity Today  would like to thank Meter for their support in bringing you this podcast. Meter delivers a complete networking stack, wired, wireless and cellular in one integrated solution that's built for performance and scale.  You can find them at Meter.com/cst Researchers also report Mac-focused campaigns abusing AI-generated content and malicious search ads to push copy-paste terminal commands that install an info stealer (MaxSync) targeting Keychain, browsers, and crypto wallets. T The show describes fake recruiter campaigns targeting developers with coding tests containing malicious dependencies on repositories like NPM and PyPI, linked to the "Gala" operation and nearly 200 packages. Finally, it reviews NPM's authentication overhaul after a supply-chain worm incident—revoking classic long-lived tokens, moving to short-lived session credentials, encouraging MFA and OIDC trusted publishing—while noting remaining risks such as MFA phishing, non-mandatory MFA for unpublish, and the continued ability to create long-lived tokens. 00:00 Sponsor: Meter + Today's Cybersecurity Headlines 00:48 Urgent Patch: BeyondTrust Remote Access RCE (CVE-2026-1731) Actively Exploited 02:45 ClickFix Evolves: DNS Lookups (nslookup) Used as Malware Staging 04:34 Mac Malware via AI Search Results: Fake Terminal Commands Deliver Info-Stealer 06:08 Fake Recruiters, Real Malware: Coding Tests Poison Dev Environments 07:19 NPM Security Overhaul After Supply-Chain Worm—What's Better, What Still Risks 09:11 Wrap-Up, Thanks, and Sponsor Message

Brian #1: Better Django management commands with django-click and django-typer Lacy Henschel Extend Django manage.py commands for your own project, for things like data operations API integrations complex data transformations development and debugging Extending is built into Django, but it looks easier, less code, and more fun with either django-click or django-typer, two projects supported through Django Commons Michael #2: PSF Lands a $1.5 million sponsorship from Anthropic Anthropic is partnering with the Python Software Foundation in a landmark funding commitment to support both security initiatives and the PSF's core work. The funds will enable new automated tools for proactively reviewing all packages uploaded to PyPI, moving beyond the current reactive-only review process. The PSF plans to build a new dataset of known malware for capability analysis The investment will sustain programs like the Developer in Residence initiative, community grants, and infrastructure like PyPI. Brian #3: How uv got so fast Andrew Nesbitt It's not just be cause “it's written in Rust”. Recent-ish standards, PEPs 518 (2016), 517 (2017), 621 (2020), and 658 (2022) made many uv design decisions possible And uv drops many backwards compatible decisions kept by pip. Dropping functionality speeds things up. “Speed comes from elimination. Every code path you don't have is a code path you don't wait for.” Some of what uv does could be implemented in pip. Some cannot. Andrew discusses different speedups, why they could be done in Python also, or why they cannot. I read this article out of interest. But it gives me lots of ideas for tools that could be written faster just with Python by making design and support decisions that eliminate whole workflows. Michael #4: PyView Web Framework PyView brings the Phoenix LiveView paradigm to Python Recently interviewed Larry on Talk Python Build dynamic, real-time web applications using server-rendered HTML Check out the examples. See the Maps demo for some real magic How does this possibly work? See the LiveView Lifecycle. Extras Brian: Upgrade Django, has a great discussion of how to upgrade version by version and why you might want to do that instead of just jumping ahead to the latest version. And also who might want to save time by leapfrogging Also has all the versions and dates of release and end of support. The Lean TDD book 1st draft is done. Now available through both pythontest and LeanPub I set it as 80% done because of future drafts planned. I'm working through a few submitted suggestions. Not much feedback, so the 2nd pass might be fast and mostly my own modifications. It's possible. I'm re-reading it myself and already am disappointed with page 1 of the introduction. I gotta make it pop more. I'll work on that. Trying to decide how many suggestions around using AI I should include. It's not mentioned in the book yet, but I think I need to incorporate some discussion around it.

Core messagePersonal AI, consumer devices, and global networks are converging into a new arena where data, infrastructure, and talent are strategic assets, not just products.Policy, open-source security, and novel computing architectures provide early but meaningful counterweights to surveillance capitalism and cyber conflict.AI: privacy vs conveniencePrivacy-first AI like Moxie Marlinspike's Confer uses open-source code, end‑to‑end encryption, on‑device keys, and secure hardware to ensure user conversations cannot be read even by the service operator.​Google's Gemini-powered Gmail adds an AI Inbox, thread summaries, and writing aids that mine inbox content to generate to‑dos and answers, while promising not to use email data to train foundation models and allowing opt‑outs.​Corporate missteps and surveillance“Worst in Show” critics highlight products like over‑engineered smart fridges, Ring facial recognition, and disposable gadgets as emblematic of poor repairability, expanded surveillance, and e‑waste.Wegmans' biometric collection and Google's outreach encouraging teens to remove parental supervision show how corporate policies can quietly shift control and weaken privacy and safety norms.Tech as geopolitical battlefieldCampaigns such as China-linked “Salt Typhoon” exploit weaknesses in legacy telecom protocols like SS7, enabling interception of calls and texts from U.S. officials and potentially users worldwide.Taiwan's arrest warrant for OnePlus's CEO over alleged illegal recruitment reflects broader state-backed efforts by China to secure foreign tech talent and IP through front companies and incentive programs.Emerging safeguards and breakthroughsCalifornia's DROP platform operationalizes its Delete Act, letting residents issue one verified request that compels all registered data brokers to delete personal data and comply on a recurring schedule under penalty of fines.​Anthropic's $1.5M partnership with the Python Software Foundation strengthens security for CPython and PyPI, hardening open‑source supply chains while funding community sustainability.Sandia's neuromorphic computing results show brain‑inspired hardware can efficiently solve complex partial differential equations, hinting at future high‑performance systems that are far more energy‑efficient than today's supercomputers.

EP 274.  In this week's update:Moxie Marlinspike, architect of Signal's groundbreaking privacy standards, now brings his uncompromising approach to secure, user-controlled artificial intelligence with the launch of Confer.The fifth annual Worst in Show anti-awards returned to CES 2026, shining a harsh spotlight on the year's most wasteful, invasive, and counterproductive consumer electronics.Wegmans has quietly expanded biometric surveillance in its New York City stores, collecting facial, iris, and voice data from every shopper under the stated goal of safety and security.California's new DROP law marks a major victory for consumer privacy, empowering residents to delete their personal information from hundreds of data brokers with a single request.Google faces intense backlash after directly notifying 13-year-olds that they can unilaterally remove parental supervision from their accounts, raising serious concerns about child safety and parental authority.Chinese state-sponsored hackers, operating under the long-running Salt Typhoon campaign, have compromised email accounts of staff on multiple powerful U.S. House committees.Anthropic has committed $1.5 million over two years to the Python Software Foundation, targeting major security improvements to CPython and PyPI to protect millions of developers and users.Neuromorphic computers, designed to emulate the human brain's architecture, have demonstrated remarkable efficiency and accuracy in solving complex partial differential equations, challenging conventional assumptions about their capabilities.Let's go get the moxie.Find this week's full transcript here.

Examples [*it for it in its] # list with the concatenation of iterables in 'its' {*it for it in its} # set with the union of iterables in 'its' {**d for d in dicts} # dict with the combination of dicts in 'dicts' (*it for it in its) # generator of the concatenation of iterables in 'its' Also: The Steering Council is happy to unanimously accept “PEP 810, Explicit lazy imports” Brian #2: Pandas 3.0.0rc0 Pandas 3.0.0 will be released soon, and we're on Release candidate 0 Here's What's new in Pands 3.0.0 Dedicated string data type by default Inferred by default for string data (instead of object dtype) The str dtype can only hold strings (or missing values), in contrast to object dtype. (setitem with non string fails) The missing value sentinel is always NaN (np.nan) and follows the same missing value semantics as the other default dtypes. Copy-on-Write The result of any indexing operation (subsetting a DataFrame or Series in any way, i.e. including accessing a DataFrame column as a Series) or any method returning a new DataFrame or Series, always behaves as if it were a copy in terms of user API. As a consequence, if you want to modify an object (DataFrame or Series), the only way to do this is to directly modify that object itself. pd.col syntax can now be used in DataFrame.assign() and DataFrame.loc() You can now do this: df.assign(c = pd.col('a') + pd.col('b')) New Deprecation Policy Plus more - Michael #3: typos You've heard about codespell … what about typos? VSCode extension and OpenVSX extension. From Sky Kasko: Like codespell, typos checks for known misspellings instead of only allowing words from a dictionary. But typos has some extra features I really appreciate, like finding spelling mistakes inside snake_case or camelCase words. For example, if you have the line: *connecton_string = "sqlite:///my.db"* codespell won't find the misspelling, but typos will. It gave me the output: *error: `connecton` should be `connection`, `connector` ╭▸ ./main.py:1:1 │1 │ connecton_string = "sqlite:///my.db" ╰╴━━━━━━━━━* But the main advantage for me is that typos has an LSP that supports editor integrations like a VS Code extension. As far as I can tell, codespell doesn't support editor integration. (Note that the popular Code Spell Checker VS Code extension is an unrelated project that uses a traditional dictionary approach.) For more on the differences between codespell and typos, here's a comparison table I found in the typos repo: https://github.com/crate-ci/typos/blob/master/docs/comparison.md By the way, though it's not mentioned in the installation instructions, typos is published on PyPI and can be installed with uv tool install typos, for example. That said, I don't bother installing it, I just use the VS Code extension and run it as a pre-commit hook. (By the way, I'm using prek instead of pre-commit now; thanks for the tip on episode #448!) It looks like typos also publishes a GitHub action, though I haven't used it. Brian #4: A couple testing topics slowlify suggested by Brian Skinn Simulate slow, overloaded, or resource-constrained machines to reproduce CI failures and hunt flaky tests. Requires Linux with cgroups v2 Why your mock breaks later Ned Badthelder Ned's taught us before to “Mock where the object is used, not where it's defined.” To be more explicit, but probably more confusing to mock-newbies, “don't mock things that get imported, mock the object in the file it got imported to.” See? That's probably worse. Anyway, read Ned's post. If my project myproduct has user.py that uses the system builtin open() and we want to patch it: DONT DO THIS: @patch("builtins.open") This patches open() for the whole system DO THIS: @patch("myproduct.user.open") This patches open() for just the user.py file, which is what we want Apparently this issue is common and is mucking up using coverage.py Extras Brian: The Rise and Rise of FastAPI - mini documentary “Building on Lean” chapter of LeanTDD is out The next chapter I'm working on is “Finding Waste in TDD” Notes to delete before end of show: I'm not on track for an end of year completion of the first pass, so pushing goal to 1/31/26 As requested by a reader, I'm releasing both the full-so-far versions and most-recent-chapter Michael: My Vanishing Gradient's episode is out Django 6 is out Joke: tabloid - A minimal programming language inspired by clickbait headlines

A couple years ago, Charlie Marsh lit a fire under Python tooling with Ruff and then uv. Today he's back with something on the other side of that coin: pyx. Pyx isn't a PyPI replacement. Think server, not just index. It mirrors PyPI, plays fine with pip or uv, and aims to make installs fast and predictable by letting a smart client talk to a smart server. When the client and server understand each other, you get new fast paths, fewer edge cases, and the kind of reliability teams beg for. If Python packaging has felt like friction, this conversation is traction. Let's get into it.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: Mozilla's Lifeline is Safe After Judge's Google Antitrust Ruling A judge lets Google keep paying Mozilla to make Google the default search engine but only if those deals aren't exclusive. More than 85% of Mozilla's revenue comes from Google search payments. The ruling forbids Google from making exclusive contracts for Search, Chrome, Google Assistant, or Gemini, and forces data sharing and search syndication so rivals get a fighting chance. Brian #2: troml - suggests or fills in trove classifiers for your projects Adam Hill This is super cool and so welcome. Trove Classifiers are things like Programming Language :: Python :: 3.14 that allow for some fun stuff to show up in PyPI, like the versions you support, etc. Note that just saying you require 3.9+ doesn't tell the user that you've actually tested stuff on 3.14. I like to keep Trove Classifiers around for this reason. Also, License classifier is deprecated, and if you include it, it shows up in two places, in Meta, and in the Classifiers section. Probably good to only have one place. So I'm going to be removing it from classifiers for my projects. One problem, classifier text has to be an exact match to something in the classifier list, so we usually recommend copy/pasting from that list. But no longer! Just use troml! It just fills it in for you (if you run troml suggest --fix). How totally awesome is that! I tried it on pytest-check, and it was mostly right. It suggested me adding 3.15, which I haven't tested yet, so I'm not ready to add that just yet. :) BTW, I talked with Brett Cannon about classifiers back in ‘23 if you want some more in depth info on trove classifiers. Michael #3: pqrs: Command line tool for inspecting Parquet files pqrs is a command line tool for inspecting Parquet files This is a replacement for the parquet-tools utility written in Rust Built using the Rust implementation of Parquet and Arrow pqrs roughly means "parquet-tools in rust" Why Parquet? Size A 200 MB CSV will usually shrink to somewhere between about 20-100 MB as Parquet depending on the data and compression. Loading a Parquet file is typically several times faster than parsing CSV, often 2x-10x faster for a full-file load and much faster when you only read some columns. Speed Full-file load into pandas: Parquet with pyarrow/fastparquet is usually 2x–10x faster than reading CSV with pandas because CSV parsing is CPU intensive (text tokenizing, dtype inference). Example: if read_csv is 10 seconds, read_parquet might be ~1–5 seconds depending on CPU and codec. Column subset: Parquet is much faster if you only need some columns — often 5x–50x faster because it reads only those column chunks. Predicate pushdown & row groups: When using dataset APIs (pyarrow.dataset) you can push filters to skip row groups, reducing I/O dramatically for selective queries. Memory usage: Parquet avoids temporary string buffers and repeated parsing, so peak memory and temporary allocations are often lower. Brian #4: Testing for Python 3.14 Python 3.14 is just around the corner, with a final release scheduled for October. What's new in Python 3.14 Python 3.14 release schedule Adding 3.14 to your CI tests in GitHub Actions Add “3.14” and optionally “3.14t” for freethreaded Add the line allow-prereleases: true I got stuck on this, and asked folks on Mastdon and Bluesky A couple folks suggested the allow-prereleases: true step.

Michael #1: pyx - optimized backend for uv via John Hagen (thanks again) I'll be interviewing Charlie in 9 days on Talk Python → Sign up (get notified) of the livestream here. Not a PyPI replacement, more of a middleware layer to make it better, faster, stronger. pyx is a paid service, with maybe a free option eventually. Brian #2: Litestar is worth a look James Bennett Michael brought up Litestar in episode 444 when talking about rewriting TalkPython in Quart James brings up scaling - Litestar is easy to split an app into multiple files Not using pydantic - You can use pydantic with Litestar, but you don't have to. Maybe attrs is right for you instead. Michael brought up Litestar seems like a “more batteries included” option. Somewhere between FastAPI and Django. Brian #3: Django remake migrations Suggested by Bruno Alla on BlueSky In response to a migrations topic last week django-remake-migrations is a tool to help you with migrations and the docs do a great job of describing the problem way better than I did last week “The built-in squashmigrations command is great, but it only work on a single app at a time, which means that you need to run it for each app in your project. On a project with enough cross-apps dependencies, it can be tricky to run.” “This command aims at solving this problem, by recreating all the migration files in the whole project, from scratch, and mark them as applied by using the replaces attribute.” Also of note The package was created with Copier Michael brought up Copier in 2021 in episode 219 It has a nice comparison table with CookieCutter and Yoeman One difference from CookieCutter is yml vs json. I'm actually not a huge fan of handwriting either. But I guess I'd rather hand write yml. So I'm thinking of trying Copier with my future project template needs.
