#pyconde is starting now

Awesome keynote today by Aaron Glenn at #pyconde about Digital Sovereignty. https://pretalx.com/pyconde-pydata-2026/talk/LSJ3CN/ Aaron mentioned that you can’t talk about this with management „until their ads is on fire“. Now is a good time. A video will be on YouTube shortly after the conference.

#TIL about UUID7 (mainly because it&#39;s now supported in the new #python 3.14). Until today I thought, why bother, uuid4 is fine. Turns out, UUID7 comes with a free timestamp and the generated ids sort by time. Read about it here https://uuid7.com/ And it&#39;s available as a library for older python versions, too. https://pypi.org/project/uuid7/ I have a few projects where I use UUID4 for temporary files - I&#39;m going to move these over to UUID7

10 years ago tomorrow I got in contact with the #Python community for the first time. At the German Python barcamp (which was in Cologne at that time). It was an awesome experience. And looking back, life changing. https://comlounge.net/pythoncamp2016/

I love @joplinapp. Apart from one detail. The &quot;markdown&quot; editor is not real raw text, but tries to format what I enter. Which makes it hard to enter text and copying/pasting source code into it. This is different from any other markdown editor I have - usually they have a window to type in with no formatting and a markdown rendering preview. On the PC you can make the Joplin editior more like markdown by creating your own userchrome.css file. I&#39;ve put one here h...

Getting ready for #PyConDE One thing I always do is to make sure I have Python, all libraries I usually use and my most used editors (PyCharm, Jupyterlab) updated and a local copy of *everything needed to set up a fresh PC offline. (*documented here: https://github.com/mborus/requirements-txt) I also start thinking about my &quot;Wishlist&quot; - which is a note of what topics to chat about on my phone. For example: Typst, Forgejo, Debugpy, Beeware on Android. Are you coming? I high...

I&#39;m really happy that @talkpython talked about diskcache https://pypi.org/project/diskcache/ in this episode: https://talkpython.fm/episodes/show/534/diskcache-your-secret-python-perf-weapon I had an urgent 🔥need to add sqlite3 caching to a project last week and wrote my own little caching class. Soon this turned into too much work when clever cache invalidation was needed. So I added diskcache as a secondary cache and have then refactored the code into using it and today could delete...
