- Using the new Tachyon profiler coming to Python 3.15 I profiled a one-liner to find a bottleneck, and sped up some 26-year-old code in @pillow.fosstodon.org.ap.brid.gy! hugovk.dev/blog/2026/fa... #Python #python315 #Tachyon #Pillow #PythonPillow #performance

- Some new things on the PEPs site. release-cycle.json is summary of Python x.y releases. python-releases.json has info for each x.y.z release. release-schedule.ics is an iCal, especially useful if you're an RM and want to plan [your life around] releases. More: peps.python.org/api/ #Python #PEP

- I gave a lightning talk at a bunch of conferences in 2025 about some of the exciting new things coming in Python 3.14, including t-strings. I illustrated this with xkcd 327, and localised it for the PyCon I was at. Here they are! hugovk.dev/blog/2026/lo... #Python #python314 #xkcd #PyCon
- The #dateutil library is a popular and powerful #Python library, but still supports Python 2.7 by depending on the #six compatibility shim, which I’d prefer not to install on Python 3.10+. Here’s how I replaced its relativedelta in a couple of CLIs that didn’t really it. hugovk.dev/blog/2025/mi...
- Would you like to read a year (and a bit) of the "And now for something completely different" bits from the Python 3.14 release notes collected into a single page? Great, here you go! hugovk.dev/blog/2025/an... #Python #Python314 #pi #pie #π #AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent
- I’m happy to announce that the Steering Council has approved my proposal to hold the next Language Summit at @europython.eu 2026 and then alternate with @pycon.us! discuss.python.org/t/language-s... ep2026.europython.eu #Python #LanguageSummit #EuroPython

It's a great way to support the community. 🗓️ 2025.conference.pyladies.com/en/schedule/ 🎟️ pretix.eu/pyladiescon/... #Python

- Hej allihopa! "Välkommen till Python! Detta är den officiella dokumentationen för Python 3.14.0." docs.python.org/sv/3/ The Python docs are now available in Swedish! Thanks to Daniel Nylander! To help translations of any language, see devguide.python.org/documentatio... #Python #docs #Swedish
- I've updated the www.python.org/downloads/ page: Added download links to the active Python versions table. Before, you had to hunt for the one you wanted in the table below. They're redirect links, so, for example, www.python.org/downloads/la... goes to www.python.org/downloads/re... #Python
