After hosting the CPython Core Dev Sprint at Arm, I went to @pyconuk.org in Manchester. I even brought my kids so they could experience a Python conference. 🐍💙 I stepped in last-minute to give my talk on the CPython JIT. 😎 Recordings here 👉 youtu.be/5-AA7-fHYYM?...

🐍🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️ #Python #CoreSprint day 4! Finally, 3.14.0rc3: next RM @savannah.dev joined in to watch the process and ask questions 🥧 Then a quick core․py recording with @pablogsal.com and @lukasz.langa.pl before heading up to Manchester for #PyConUK! 🐝 Thanks again to @diegor.it and Arm for hosting! 🦾

Nothing like a 10-hour plane ride to burn down my movie backlog. First up, The Brutalist.

Now you can ✨ literally use Literal ✨ with Typer. Here's Typer 0.19.0 🚀 This adds support for typing.Literal, for defining CLI parameters that should take one of multiple options. Probably the most requested feature just landed. 🎉 github.com/fastapi/typer

Ah yes, a very calm and normal travel day flying back to the states today. Very normal indeed.

Today, I learned about the semantic differences between FreeBSD and GNU make* *I broke a build 😭

The CPython Core team rules! Ending the week at the sprint filled with gratitude and excited about the work ahead of us. Immensely lucky to work on this thing I love with friends from all around the world. 🖤

Coming at you live from the Arm campus in Cambridge, UK, Python 3.14.0rc3 is out now! This is the final RC release for 3.14...and my first release shadowing (thank you @hugovk.dev!) discuss.python.org/t/python-3-1...

I stand by that being a product manager by day has made me a more effective engineer.

🐍🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️ #Python #CoreSprint day 2! @ixek.bsky.social gave a mentorship talk @gpshead.bsky.social gave a Claude demo Tania, @jezdez.dev, @willingc.bsky.social and I discussed the User Success WG We ended with punting on the Cam and dinner at Jesus College! @yhg1s.bsky.social ran Feuding Pythonistas.

🐍🏃‍➡️ We kicked off the first day of the #Python #CoreSprint at Arm in Cambridge with lots of talks and lots of discussion about talks! Talks about the JIT, WASI, Pyodide PPI, cross-platform wheel builds, demo of new C API, precompiled binaries from python.org, PEP 793 and abi3/abi3t/abi4 discussion

First PR merged of the sprint - I'm a heckin' compiler engineer! github.com/python/cpyth...

Core! Dev! Sprint! Here’s to a solid week of Python 🍻

Well, I guess jet lag has claimed another victim 😩😩😩

I might have just had the best sandwich of my entire life

On this episode of Savannah loves train travel outside of North America: 🇬🇧

💁‍♀️🚗🛫🌊🚊🇬🇧👩‍💻 …in other words, I’ve started my long journey across the pond to the CPython Core Dev Sprint!!

What's New in Python 3.14: * Support UUID versions 6, 7, & 8 via uuid.uuid6(), uuid.uuid7(), & uuid.uuid8() * uuid.NIL and uuid.MAX represent Nil and Max UUID formats * Generate multiple UUIDs at once via python -m uuid --count docs.python.org/3.14/whatsne... #Python #Python314 #UUID #RFC9652

I like cats, I too struggle with change and feel overwhelmed in noisy environments and like little treats.

The thing about growing up in another country from your partner is you’ll be like “omg this is a banger from my youth, an absolutely iconic band” and they’ll be like “I have no idea who this is” 😭😭😭

“Mom! I don’t care if you’re working or if I cover you in fur! I need attention! Now!”

Packing for a week away sucks a lot less if you only wear black.

Anyone else find it terribly boring that literally every “new” editor is just VS Code? It’s so BORING.

Everyone needs to read Dungeon Crawler Carl. Easily my favourite read of the year so far.

A great post by Ken Jin about progress on the JIT!

Just went on a walk and wow, it’s so smoky outside 😭

No spoilers but I’m 120 pages into Dungeon Crawler Carl and I’m fully, fully obsessed.

I want *you* to contribute to CPython!

If you do decide to vote, please read the candidate details. If you do read the details, do notice how one stands out. If you do notice one standing out, do check out how that person is acting on discuss.python.org right now. If you do all that, then please cast your vote.

I tried to write the talk I needed to hear when I first started contributing ❤️

And we’re live!!

ommmg so sick

today a compiler engineer told me some work I did on constant folding was too good. chat, I...I think I'm a compiler engineer.

Lady Gaga should have made Perfect Celebrity the third single off Mayhem. I will not be taking questions at this time.

Compiler-y things can’t be intimidating if they’re in pink and purple 💕 savannah.dev/posts/how-yo...

The live chat for the Python documentary (www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfH4...) is making me super emotional this morning. I owe so much of my career to Python. From geospatial analysis > web dev > data engineering and more, Python has been at the center. Python is forever <3

Excited to announce the call for funding proposals! If you have an idea to help advance Project Jupyter's contributor capacity or improve the reliability, security, and consistency of Jupyter’s software, you should submit a proposal!

The premiere of Python: The Documentary is starting in a few minutes 🎉🎉 join in to watch and connect with Pythonistas from around the world! #python

I've secured my @blackpythondevs.bsky.social “Foundational Supporter” status for 2025! ✨ Take a look at this update from @kjaymiller.com and consider supporting BPD: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

My EuroPython keynote is debuting on YouTube in a couple of days for anyone who missed it IRL in July. I'm really proud of this talk and am so honoured to have given it. Hope you like it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGXX...

I made a little teapot the other day and I kind of love its shape. There’s still a 98% I botched glazing it and it’ll be decorative but eh, still pretty stoked.

oh my god

First day back to work after a week sick, I am declaring email and Slack bankruptcy.

brb going to blast through a couple books this weekend
