Tim Peters introduced doctest in #Python in 2001, that might be the oldest one:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.14/Lib/doctest.py#L2
Nowadays, Elixir, Rust, Zig, and Scala, to name a few, also have doctests.
#Golang is an interesting one: it has example tests, which are written in a separate function like regular tests but then included in the compiled HTML documentation:
https://pkg.go.dev/testing#hdr-Examples
#Emacs freezing for 10 seconds with Pyright #Python LSP in #Django project when saving file like this.
Not sure what excess analysis it's doing but turning Pyright off (basedpyright to be exact) and going with ruff only for now.

How can I generate a full screen semi transparent window in Ubuntu? #python #2404 #gtk #wayland #window

Ruff (an extremely fast Python linter and code formatter, written in Rust) imported in OpenBSD official ports tree, initial version 0.14.1 #OpenBSD #Python https://github.com/openbsd/ports/tree/master/devel/ruff
This is an example of how Nix can be useful for data analysis: a project that uses #Julia #Python and #RStats in which #Nix is used to set up the dev env in a reproducible way, and is also used as build automation tool to orchestrate the codebase https://b-rodrigues.github.io/rixpress_demos/rbc/index.html
New #Python package release: akismet 25.10.0.
Highlights include:
* Python 3.14 compatibility
* A new pytest plugin to make it easier to test your use of the Akismet clients.

I am giving 2 talks abt making your data analysis outputs into polished products with the power of #RStats and #Python pkgs + my pkg {brandthis}.

foss work recap, the last 12 months
Almost all Go or Z80 assembler, save for a few support tools in python, ruby, etc. and some C prototypes
unix / terminal stuff
hmop - htop-like process viewer
bim - the barely improved editor
tbim - experiment blending tmux-like features with bim, log viewer, and more
slice - a performant unix command to split big text files into chunks, various C implementations
cs / ds
ual
web stuff
queryfy - validation and handling of unstructured data in REST requests
superjsonic - fast json unmarshalling
minty - server side rendering with htmx and dynamic client-side components to replace React, crsf, tailwind, bootstrap support. clean architecture
rserv + ulo - REST backend server useful for prototyping, json document-oriented, full text search, graph database, sulpher, a reduced subset of cypher-like graph querying. rserv is a single python script, ulo is more involved and performant in Go, WIP
Spectrum stuff
xim - a vim-like text editor for the ZX Spectrum
zenas - a Z80 assembler
zenzx - a ZX Spectrum emulator
zen80 - a Z80, zexall-tested emulator
zx3dsk - ZX Spectrum +3 disk image handling tools
zxgui - ongoing design for a desktop GUI system for the ZX Spectrum and successors
zxgotools - tape file handling tools
and more
⚡ 4-hour sprint: rebuilt our Discord AI from scratch
Tech stack:
- gpt-5-nano (temp 0.9 for creativity)
- Async debounce system
- 3-layer response filtering
- Per-user context (10k lines)
- Proactive engagement loop
Result: Bot that actually vibes with the community instead of sounding like a corporate FAQ 🤖→😎 Feels human - casual, unpredictable, and actually helpful. 🥲
Open to questions about the architecture!
