  5. @pamelafox Black 25.1 made mostly similar changes to @pillow, plus adding a few trailing commas and trimming some whitespace from a docstring:

    github.com/python-pillow/Pillo

    Smaller projects (that I've checked so far) had no change.

  10. @pamelafox I wrote "coroutine" 469 times in Fluent Python Second Edition.

    The main chapter about asynchronous programming is framework-agnostic.

    The examples use , , and , to show that `async/await` are not tied to a specific runtime event loop or library.

  11. @pamelafox @simon As a non-native English speaker, I really do appreciate tools like this. #DeepLWrite has been tremendously useful for me (although I'm not sure if it necessarily fits under the LLM umbrella).

  12. @pamelafox Wow, that's an interesting troubleshooting journey! 🔍🐳 It's amazing how a simple 'docker system prune' can work wonders and resolve the issue. Thanks for sharing your experience! #DockerTroubleshooting #TechFixes #sarcasm #punintended

  13. I talked about using Bicep (infrastructure-as-code) to deploy PostgreSQL servers to Azure at today. Slides @ pamelafox.github.io/my-py-talk
    Recording up soon!

  14. Just presented "1-click deploys of Python Web Apps to Azure" at Python Web Conf. Thanks to attendees for great engagement and questions!

  15. Not all the #PyConUS posters are up yet, but the ones that are look amazing 🤩

    I especially like...

    @pamelafox - explains vector embedding visually in a way that finally helped tie everything together in my head. I feel like I actually *understand* the core concepts 1000% better now.

    @simon - I love the dozens of little photos demonstrating real uses of #datasette. Now I want to explore all the niche museums within driving distance of home!

    #Python is applied a mind-boggling variety of ways!

  16. CW: Teaching introductory programming, Parsons Problems, Python + visual

    I have made it with lots of help from friends, specially bolha.us/@lucianoratamero, it's a prototype of a tool to make/run #ParsonsProblems with visual output (using the #Processing #p5js vocabulary).

    As I prefer to teach with #Python, I'm using a #pyodide based #pyp5js hack, with names changed to match #py5. The #ParsonsPuzzles infrastructure is a fork from a tool by amazing @pamelafox you can also fork and adapt it easily (static pages, can be served from GitHub Pages).

  17. TIL on March 10th 2026 (just missed it). Small event, focused on unglamourous AI in production, some of the speakers were practitioners I know and respect. The description reminds me a bit of !

    pyai.events/

    - Talk videos will hopefully be released online soon
    - Blogpost by @pamelafox, one of the speakers: blog.pamelafox.org/2026/03/lea
    - Organisers plan to organize another one next year 👀

  18. @com @avolkov @morgaelyn @pamelafox I use a unique virtual environment for each Python project and use `pip freeze > requirements.txt` inside that venv to commit the dependencies. Am I missing anything compared to this `pip-tools compile`? 🤔

  19. Primeira tentativa de #ParsonsProblems com resultado visual, graças ajuda do incrível @lucianoratamero, e sobre os ombros da gigante educadora @pamelafox :D

    A first attempt at Parsons Puzzles with visual results, thanks to incredible Luciano Ratamero and standing in the shoulders of giant educator Pamela Fox...

  20. @diazona @pamelafox

    This "#reloader" functionality is common with web frameworks/servers, but I'm not sure how well it would work in the context of a long-running #process. If some of my code has an instance of a class in a module that gets reloaded, and the class definition changes ... what then?

    I can't really think of a sensible enough way for it to work for it to be useful.

  21. On the big ballroom stage at #PGConfIndia in Bengaluru is Varun Dhawan from the Azure Database for PostgreSQL team at #Microsoft giving his rather caffeinated & energetic talk about “Using Postgres to locate the best coffee near you!”

    And to teach us about how to use #PostgreSQL with vectors for semantic search, Varun used data about local coffeeshops, a local delivery service called Zomato, a cameo by Dora the Explorer, vector comparisons by @pamelafox … and apparently Varun himself had several (!!) coffees before getting up on stage. Lots of #Postgres fun!

  22. Today's #CitusCon video of the day is by @pamelafox who gave a talk at Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023 about "Deploying PostgreSQL to Azure with Bicep"

    Pamela is an amazing explainer and her talks never fail to delight. Which is a double negative way of saying it's a good talk.
