Confused about coordinate reference systems (CRSs)? 🧭🌍🐍
Chapter 6 of Geocomputation with Python dives into:
- Geographic vs projected CRSs (lon/lat vs meters)
- Getting, setting & reprojecting CRSs
- Why ignoring CRSs can break your analysis 🚨

I made some minor updates to my open source Python project, Pyriodic Backend, it is very much work in progress and pre-alpha, but it can already be used for simple projects.
The main aim of Pyriodic Backend is to be "the simplest possible backend for static HTML websites". It allows to periodically (duh) update certain parts of the webpage based on functions written in Python. I am using it my solar webserver project to present the weather and cpu statistics on my static website.

Yesterday our Python Pescara group hosted a Django Girls+ workshop during DevFest Pescara 2025, organized by GDG Pescara 🐬
Many participants spent the day learning Django guided by our amazing coaches, all members of Python Pescara. 🐍
We ended the day celebrating Django’s 20th birthday with a big cake featuring the Django logo! 🎂

1/3 @dn These are valid observations which I can partially address (but not satisfactorily). And by the way, everything you said matters to me, too! While I **can’t** answer the problem of `uv` #uv being ready soon enough for the latest #Python; I **can** give procedures for keeping `uv` itself up-to-date … depending on how you installed it:
* `uv self update` for `uv`s recommended install
* `brew update; brew upgrade; brew cleanup` if you installed with #Homebrew, which applies to both Linux and macOS (`apt` might be applicable, too, on Linux. I can’t remember)
* Use`cargo` or an external tool like `cargo-install-update` if you installed it like any other #RustLang binary.
All of these are unsatisfactory, though, because they don’t "just happen" either to actually update or even to tell you that you **need** to update. Maybe that’s correct behavior because you’re not forced into updates you don’t want, or maybe it would be better if they were fully automated.

#30DayMapChallenge Day3 Polygons – worldwide Google search interest in 🐱cat vs 🐶dog. Apparently I got a thing for cats now 😅
Map shows if search volumes are higher for cat (blue), dog (red) or same (grey). Light colours mean low search volumes. Data from Google Trends, Oct 2024-Oct 2025.
Made in #python + #Figma to add text, code https://github.com/Lisa-Ho/30-day-map-challenge/tree/main/2025

Third day of fog. No flight today. 🙄
As I am grounded, I could enhance my HTTP server API code with a WebSocket module. 🙂

[Перевод] RedCodeAgent: автоматическая платформа для red-teaming и оценки безопасности code agents
Команда AI for Devs подготовила перевод статьи о RedCodeAgent — первой полностью автоматизированной системе red-teaming для проверки безопасности кодовых агентов. Исследователи из Чикаго, Оксфорда, Беркли и Microsoft Research показали: даже самые продвинутые LLM-агенты могут генерировать и выполнять уязвимый код. RedCodeAgent не просто тестирует ответы — он атакует, анализирует поведение и находит уязвимости, которые пропускают все остальные методы.

Heard of #gpsd but don't know its significance? I just published a new guide on using gpsd to reliably access and manage GPS data in #Python. Check it out if you work with GPS hardware or just want to make sense of those NMEA strings.

🎯 My first Substack is live: "Understanding Vector Databases"
Traditional databases match keywords.
Vector databases understand meaning.
Just published a beginner-friendly guide where I:
- Explain vectors using simple analogies
- Show how they power Netflix, Spotify, and ChatGPT
- Build a semantic search app from scratch
- Explore applications beyond ML
The best part? We code together. No prerequisites except curiosity.
What would you build if your database could understand context, not just keywords?

Through a link in a different project, I found this delightful blog post about writing a guitar tuning program from scratch! Both with minimal dependencies and explaining every part of the theory involved!
Perfect fit for me!
