Honestly the hack I'm proudest of that I've done in emacs is a keyboard shortcut that, given an undefined symbol in Python, adds an import for that symbol to the top of the file.
❌ - complicated algorithm for finding all possible valid symbols in all packages visible in this Python project
✅ - find the symbol definition in an open Python buffer, (using nothing more impressive than a regex search), compute the relative path between the symbol's location and the current buffer file's location, turn that into an import path, slam it into the top of the buffer.
Coupled with a handful of hard-coded values for things in the typing package (that really could stand to be builtin to the language but aren't because Python has gotten onto the slow bouncy-castle-slide into "too big to make better" behind C++), this works staggeringly well most of the time.

DSL против универсальных языков: когда стоит создавать собственный доменный язык и как избежать ошибок
Мир разработки полон соблазнов изобретать собственные решения. Один из самых ярких соблазнов — создать свой DSL (Domain-Specific Language). Это звучит красиво: язык, который идеально отражает задачи конкретной предметной области. Но где заканчивается здравый смысл и начинается велосипедостроение? В статье я попробую на примерах показать, когда DSL — это спасение, а когда лучше взять старый добрый Python, C# или даже Bash.

After the 3, yes, THREE! Dependency attacks using #npm,
1: please lock your version and run tools to figure out if you have vulnerabilities in you dependencies.
2: Maybe integrating the most used functionality in the language is a good thing instead of relying on a million deps like in #javascipt or #python.

Have you ever used a generator expression in #Python? They are similar to a list comprehension except that you get a generator returned.

Two fake Python packages just dropped a powerful RAT on Windows.
“sisaws” & “secmeasure” secretly install SilentSync — capable of stealing browser passwords, files, and screenshots. #Python #CyberSecurity #InfoSec
