Python behind the scenes #1: how the CPython VM works

This article opens a series which seeks to answer this very question. We'll dive into the internals of CPython, Python's most popular implementation. By doing so we'll understand the language itself at a deeper level. That is the primary goal of this series. If you're familiar with Python and comfortable reading C but have no much experience working with CPython's source code, there is a good chance you'll find this writing interesting.

Better Git diff output for Ruby, Python, Elixir, Go and more | tekin.co.uk

Very simple config change to git that makes diffs so much more useful for so many more languages -- especially Python in my case.

The Ecological Impact of High-performance Computing in Astrophysics

Or, put another way, which languages are killing the planet because they use more power on a system? Possibly. Perhaps.

Spoiler: FORTRAN is better than Python.

Conscientious Software

Software needs to grow up and become responsible for itself and its own future by participating in its own installation and customization, maintaining its own health, and adapting itself to new circumstances, new users, and new uses. To create such software will require us to change some of our underlying assumptions about how we write programs. A promising approach seems to be to separate software that does the work (allopoietic) from software that keeps the system alive (autopoietic).

pycodestyle

Another linter of sorts for Python, with an emphasis on code style as defined in PEP 8. I tend to use pylint for linting but this seems to be in favour when using lsp-mode in Emacs.

Starboard

Site that sort of provides active JavaScript notebooks, with a view to doing most/all of the work on the client side. I was sort of hoping there'd be a self-host option or something and I'm not seeing that. On the other hand it could be a good tool for tinkering with and prototyping code.
