Michael #1: ty documentation site and uv migration guide via Skyler KaskoAstral created a documentation site for ty (PR #744 in release 0.0.1-alpha.13).Astral added a page on migrating from pip to a uv project in the uv documentation. (PR #12382 in release 0.7.19).Talk Python episode on ty. Brian #2: uv build backend is now stable + other Astral news The uv build backend is now stable Tim Hopper via Python Developer Tooling HandbookFrom Charlie Marsh “The uv build backend is now stable, and considered ready for production use. An alternative to setuptools, hatchling, etc. for pure Python projects, with a focus on good defaults, user-friendly error messages, and performance. When used with uv, it's 10-35x faster.”“(In a future release, we'll make this the default.)” [build-system] requires = ["uv_build>=0.7.19,<0.8.0"] build-backend = "uv_build" I believe it’s faster, but I agree with Brett Cannon in asking “What's being benchmarked? I'm not sure what a "backend sync" is referring to other than maybe installing the build back-end?”See also: uv: Making Python Local Workflows FAST and BORING in 2025 - Hynek Brian #3: Refactoring long boolean expressions Trey HunnerThis is applied boolean logic, and even folks who learned this in a CS program probably did so early on, and may have forgotten it.How can you improve the readability of long Boolean expressions in Python? Put parens around the whole expression and separate clauses onto different linesWhere to put boolean operators between clauses? at the end of the line or the beginning? PEP8 recommends the beginning if (expression1 and expression2 and expression3): ... Naming sub-expressions with variables Odd downside that wouldn’t occur to me. All expressions are evaluated, thus not taking advantage of expression short-circuiting.Naming operations with functions Less readable, but takes advantage of short-circuitingUsing De Morgan’s Law : replacing a compound expression with a similar (and hopefully easier to read) expression # neither: we want both to be false not (a or b) == (not a) and (not b) # never_both: at least one false not (a and b) == (not a) or (not b) Michael #4: fastapi-ml-skeleton FastAPI Skeleton App to serve machine learning models production-ready.This repository contains a skeleton app which can be used to speed-up your next machine learning project.The code is fully tested and provides a preconfigured tox to quickly expand this sample code.A sample regression model for house price prediction is included in this project.Short write up on "What does set -a do?" Extras Brian: OCF Michael: via Wei LeeExtra Airflow ruff rules: Starting from Ruff version 0.11.13, most changes from Airflow 2 to Airflow 3 can be automated using AIR3. (It’s still in preview so a “—-preview” flag is needed) e.g., if you have the following Airflow 2 code import datetime from airflow.models import DAG from airflow.operators.empty import EmptyOperator with DAG( dag_id="my_dag_name", start_date=datetime.datetime(2021, 1, 1), schedule_interval="@daily", ): EmptyOperator(task_id="task") it can be fixed with uvx ruff check --select AIR3 --fix --unsafe-fixes --preview import datetime from airflow.sdk import DAG from airflow.providers.standard.operators.empty import EmptyOperator with DAG( dag_id="my_dag_name", start_date=datetime.datetime(2021, 1, 1), schedule="@daily", ): EmptyOperator(task_id="task") which works with Airflow 3.

Brian #1: Python Cheat Sheets from Trey Hunner Some fun sheets Python f-string tips & cheat sheetsPython's pathlib modulePython's many command-line utilities Michael #2: Automatisch Open source Zapier alternativeAutomatisch helps you to automate your business processes without coding.Use their affordable cloud solution or self-host on your own servers.Automatisch allows you to store your data on your own servers, good for companies dealing with sensitive user data, particularly in industries like healthcare and finance, or those based in Europe bound by General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Michael #3: mureq-typed Single file, zero-dependency alternative to requests. Fully typed. Modern Python tooling.Typed version of mureq (covered in 2022 on episode 268)Intended to be vendored in-tree by Linux systems software and other lightweight applications.mureq-typed is a drop-in, fully API compatible replacement for mureq updated with modern Python tooling:Type checked with mypy, ty, and pyrefly.Formatted with black, no ignore rules necessary.Linted with ruff (add these rules for mureq.py to your per-file-ignores). Brian #4: My CLI World Frank WilesEncouragement to modify your command line environmentSome of Franks tools direnv, zoxide, fd, ack, atuin, justAlso some aliases, like gitpulllogNotes We covered poethepoet recently, if just just isn’t cutting it for you.I tried to ilke starship, bit for some reason with my setup, it slows down the shell too much. Extras Brian: Interesting read of the week: New theory proposes time has three dimensions, with space as a secondary effectMichael's: New quantum theory of gravity brings long-sought 'theory of everything' a crucial step closer Joke: Brian read a few quotes from the book Disappointing Affirmations, by Dave Tarnowski “You are always just a moment away from your next worst day ever. Or your next best day ever, but let’s be realistic.”“You can be anything you want. And yet you keep choosing to be you. I admire your dedication to the role.”“Today I am letting go of the things that are holding me back from the life that I want to live. Then I’m picking them all up again because I have separation anxiety.”

Even if your setter accepts different types, the type checker will complain on assignment.”Will describes a way to get around this and make type checkers happy.He replaces @property with a descriptor. It’s a cool technique.I also like the way Will is allowing different ways to use a property such that it’s more convenient for the user. This is a cool deverloper usability trick. Brian #3: complexipy Calculates the cognitive complexity of Python files, written in Rust.Based on the cognitive complexity measurement described in a white paper by SonarCognitive complexity builds on the idea of cyclomatic complexity.Cyclomatic complexity was intended to measure the “testability and maintainability” of the control flow of a module. Sonar argues that it’s fine for testability, but doesn’t do well with measuring the “maintainability” part. So they came up with a new measure.Cognitive complexity is intended to reflects the relative difficulty of understanding, and therefore of maintaining methods, classes, and applications.complexipy essentially does that, but also has a really nice color output.Note: at the very least, you should be using “cyclomatic complexity” try with ruff check --select C901But also try complexipy.Great for understanding which functions might be ripe for refactoring, adding more documentation, surrounding with more tests, etc. Michael #4: juvio uv kernel for Jupyter⚙️ Automatic Environment Setup: When the notebook is opened, Juvio installs the dependencies automatically in an ephemeral virtual environment (using uv), ensuring that the notebook runs with the correct versions of the packages and Python📁 Git-Friendly Format: Notebooks are converted on the fly to a script-style format using # %% markers, making diffs and version control painlessWhy Use Juvio? No additional lock or requirements files are neededGuaranteed reproducibilityCleaner Git diffsPowered By uv – ultra-fast Python package managementPEP 723 – Python inline dependency standards Extras Brian: Test & Code in slow mode currently.
