Hike v1.3.0 is now available. Hike is a little #markdown browser for the #terminal, written in #Python
The main change in this release is to take some small advantage of a trend amongst the #LLM, #AI and #Agent fans...

Anybody knows who submitted the "From Script to PyPI: Automating the Python Package Lifecycle" talk to EuroPython 2026? I'm curious to know if they'll mention my Griffe package regarding "breaking changes" 🙂
Anybody knows who submitted the "How to llms.txt on Python projects" to EuroPython 2026? I'm curious to know if they'll mention my mkdocs-llmstxt plugin 🙂

We are drowning in synthetic media. Between Midjourney and advanced Photoshopping, visual "reality" is under attack.
Just as I reverse engineer binaries to hunt for vulnerabilities, I needed a tool to reverse engineer image files and expose the manipulation buried in their hex logic.
Most people look at the pixels. I look at the metadata, the compression artifacts, and the entropy.
That is why I built PixelProof—a forensic-grade image analysis toolkit written in pure Python.
The Engineering: It doesn't rely on black-box AI to detect AI; it relies on math. PixelProof runs an 11-pass deep analysis from the command line:
Error Level Analysis (ELA): Highlights regions that compress differently from the rest of the image (the mathematical smoking gun for compositing).
Metadata Interrogation: Scans for Adobe 8BIM resource blocks and scrubbed camera hardware info.
Noise Consistency: Detects varying noise levels across regions (a hallmark of stitched images).
Steganography Detection: Uses Chi-square, SPA, RS, and bit-plane entropy to detect hidden payloads in the least significant bits.
In one command, the engine spits out an ELA visualization, a JSON artifact manifest, and a full PDF forensic report with a calculated Tamper Probability.
Stop trusting your eyes. Start trusting the math.

How many NaNs in a #Python #Pandas data frame?
1. Use isna, returning a data frame of booleans
2. Use sum, returning the number of NaNs in each column
3. Use sum again, adding those numbers
df.isna().sum().sum()

Швейцарский ножик для распознавания речи
ASR-системы в проде - это тяжёлые, специализированные решения под конкретные сценарии. Но что делать, если нужен универсальный инструмент, который умеет распознать длинное аудио, диаризовать спикеров, обработать пачку файлов и при этом не требует целого GPU кластера? В этой серии статей я разбираю, как собрать «швейцарский ножик» для распознавания речи на базе Whisper: выбрать модель, победить галлюцинации, стабилизировать обработку длинных аудио и выжать максимум из обычной видеокарты. Первая часть - про выбор ASR, оптимизацию инференса и практические грабли, с которыми сталкиваешься, когда пытаешься превратить open-source модель в рабочий инструмент.
