And security releases of 3.9-3.11.

Please upgrade 3.9-3.13!

Please test 3.14!

Chart showing Python up to 3.8 are EOL, 3.9-3.12 are security only, 3.13 is bugfix, and 3.14 is the feature branch.

The Python version diagram has been updated to show the bugfix/security split for each release. (Before, the bars were either completely green or yellow.)

devguide.python.org/versions/

It's also zoomed in and shows fewer releases than before. There's another chart further down the page showing all of 2.6 to 3.14. And the wording in the status key has been refreshed to make it clearer.

Thanks to @nedbat and @encukou for updating it!

Chart showing horizontal bars for Python releases, and time long the X axis. 2.7 and 3.6-3.8 are red because they're end-of-life. 3.9 and higher have their bar split into green and yellow segments. A vertical line for today crosses the yellow segment for 3.9-3.11, they're in the security phase. 3.12-3.13 are in bugfix.
Similar chart but showing all versions from 2.6 up to 3.14.

New account, so new #introduction. Let's do it again!

I have a #MastersDegree in #ComputerScience and #ComputerEngineering. I went to #NMU for undergrad and #MSU for my graduate degree. I currently work at #UChicago for the #TMWCenter, which focuses on helping young children acquire language (and therefore other learning skills) faster.

In my spare time, I develop #OpenSourceSoftware such as
- a #SphinxDoc extension that embed #Fediverse comments on your page
- a library to talk to #ManifoldMarkets from native #Python
- a #PredictionMarket manager using the above
- a #transpiler from a subset of Python to #OpenStreetMaps's #OverpassQL
- bug fixes to many other projects, including #mypy, #base58, #attrs, #CPython, & more

I spend a fair bit of my time these days on #MathResearch, specifically into the #ThueMorse Sequence and its extensions.

I'm also a hobbyist editor on OpenStreetMap.

#Demisexual, #transfem, and happily engaged to my #enby sweetheart.

We have two cats: #OpheTheLoaf and #MayalaranTheCat (yes, from #StormlightArchive) See here for more on them!

I speak English fluently, Spanish haltingly, and am trying to learn Chinese

#queer #Chicago

TransFem SpaceOlivia A-C (@LivInTheLookingGlass)These are our cats, #OpheTheLoaf and #MayalaranTheCat. Ophelia was originally my partner's, we live together full time now, and are an integrated family Fun facts about Ophelia: * She is missing a tooth, so her lip sometimes gets stuck open in a cute way * She has an "activation noise" that sounds kinda like a pigeon * She will often do 10/10 loafs, hence the nickname Some facts about Maya: * Her favorite hobby is judging the neighbors * She is very anxious * She has an incredibly dainty play style * She has a series of increasingly ridiculous nicknames: Mayalaran -> Maya -> Mayo -> Aioli -> Au Jus (Follow the hashtags if you want just my cats) #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfFedi (📎8)

I've played a bit with the #TODOmd hook and I know how many TODOs there are in some popular Open Source projects:

* CPython: 187 TODOs
* Linux: 3788 TODOs
* Git: 112 TODOs
* Go: 455 TODOs

Source: codeberg.org/lig/todo-md/src/b

What other Open Source projects should I enhance with the TODO.md file?:)

Oh dang, my #introduction post is waaay out of date now. Let's do it again!

We have two cats: #OpheTheLoaf and #MayalaranTheCat (yes, from #StormlightArchive)

Two cats are by a sliding glass window. The one towards the top of the frame (named Ophelia) is laying on a heat pad and staring at the second cat. The second cat (named Maya) is towards the bottom of the frame. She is sat on the entry rug with her body poked between the blinds on the window, so that she can look outside.
There are two cats in frame, near a very small cat tower. On top of the tower, Ophelia is laying down. Below, in a meercat-like pose, is Maya. She is trying to get a better view of the other cat. They didn't know each other very well at this time.
A gray cat, Maya, is laying on the couch. She is curled up such that her belly and paws are all exposed, though her tail is tucked near her feet. She looks peacefully asleep
A gray/gray-orange cat is laying on a white blanket. Her name is Ophelia, and she has one eye half open, which is a brilliant green-orange. She is very relaxed. You get the faint impression of a person's legs underneath the blanket

mgorny-nyan (he) :autism:🙀🚂🐧

Guess how angry am I, after trying to package #SigStore (that new NIH signature verification tool that's being pushed through by #CPython, because obviously #PGP is not good enough). Of course, it comes with a ton of random dependencies. Every other has a different build system. Every other has some major issue. Every other comes bringing a ton of more dependencies, including some low quality packages (the kind we removed from #Gentoo, because they were unmaintainable), new NIH crypto libraries (with low test coverage, but security!), unmaintained old dependencies, home-grown frameworks…

But no, if you don't like the Python version (plus Rust, of course), we can alternatively try to Go implementation. After all, vendoring all the dependencies is the best way forward towards security.

[EDIT: did I mention that one package that's had last stable release in 2020, and is in forever beta since?]
