In response to the eMudhra / emSign certificate security incident we've published guidance for Python users to update CA certificates: discuss.python.org/t/informatio... #security #Python #pki

Please upgrade certifi in all Python applications to the latest version (2026.10.19) following emSign CA certificate security incident: github.com/certifi/pyth... #security #python #vulnerability

Changed my perspective on Ben, he's literate on AI. He's a bit more like his accountant character than I thought. Also I wish the interviewer asked more about what the use cases for his AI company. Are they focused on VFX? How are they rendering things differently? www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzXE...

Is this the alignment they’re talking about?

The ABI is the part of the CPython API a compiler never checks for you, and it's why bugs like this turn into segfaults instead of build errors. Nathan Goldbaum lays out the mechanics in his EuroPython talk. Watch the full talk here: buff.ly/j0pOiU1 #Python #CPython #EuroPython

Thanks @thibaudcolas.bsky.social and @meagenvoss.bsky.social for coming on the show to discuss the current realities large open source projects like @wagtail.org are facing today. realpython.com/podcasts/rpp...

I agree with this sentiment. I think it’s all about building a moat against any outside the US providers. And it’s about IPO. youtube.com/shorts/c50aK...

Since becoming president again, Trump has promised: -$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend" -$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend" -$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies -$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms No checks have been issued www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-magi...

Everyone rushes to compare Polars and SQL on speed and syntax. Marco Gorelli points out that almost nobody is comparing the semantics, the actual mental models behind each one. Full talk from PyData London: buff.ly/uInE29g #Polars #SQL #PythonData #DataEngineering #Quansight

It was great to talk with @denodell.bsky.social about performance engineering and his book. Thanks for coming on the show!

@govandybeshear.bsky.social You need to replace Mitch McConnell Today! If he shows up to contest that “in person” than you can talk about it. Use your power! Mitch would definitely do the same, and honestly has bent the rules every single time to ruin our country. Bend it back. Help fix America.

🎉✨ A warm thank you to Real Python Podcast for supporting EuroPython 2026! We're proud to be a space where communities come together, and we value the opportunity to collaborate with other communities and open-source projects. 🙌 realpython.com/podcasts/rpp/

🎂 25 years of EuroPython and we're celebrating in style! We sat down with Christopher Bailey on the #RealPython Podcast (episode #299) to talk all things EuroPython 2026: 👉 Listen here: realpython.com/podcasts/rpp... See you in Kraków this July! #europython #conference #python #community

I don't enjoy making financial content, but the lack of mainstream media coverage about this is upsetting. If you can handle even more outrage, look up the new float and 3x multiplier rules applying to index funds and SpaceX, as there's no way I could explain that adeptly in a 3 minute reel.

Also don’t invest in Space X… Per ig: @/your.richbff

It was great to talk with Daria and Mia @clytaemnestra.bsky.social about @europython.eu 2026! Thanks for coming on the show. So many interesting and cool talks scheduled!

How much is your company spending to support the Python Software Foundation? For comparison, how much do they spend for tips on expensed meals? The PSF runs PyPI, where pip installs from. You depend on PyPI. Fund the PSF. Tip your server! www.python.org/psf/sponsors...

Yeah! We did it Colorado!

It was fun to catch up with @mkennedy.codes and talk about his new book. Such a great conversation, thanks for coming back on the show!
