There's a lightning talk from day 1 about the new Flask that explained some of the performance improvements, which actually answers a question I've had since its release.
Also really enjoyed the talk on the new profiler Scalene, I would love to try it out ASAP.
Looking forward to the rest.
Question about youtube: Youtube video thumbnails abbreviates long video titles to "..." For example: TALK / Mariatta Wijaya / Oops! I Became an Open.. Is there a way to fix this?
style = document.createElement('style'); style.innerText = 'html:not(.style-scope)[typography] { --yt-link-line-height: 4rem; }\nytd-grid-video-renderer #video-title.yt-simple-endpoint.ytd-grid-video-renderer { -webkit-line-clamp: 10!important }'; document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(style);Wish i could have a real `array.map` just like in javascript.

The thing with Python types is that they are “type hints” and not true types, hints is the keyword. There’s also two type checker implementations. As they are hints it means you can still pass in wrong values in some situations and what types check on one implementation may not type check with the other implementation. So the types are superficial only in Python. The paper “Python 3 types in the wild” at https://news…

So the types are superficial only in Python. Could you elaborate. When can you pass in wrong values? The type checkers aren't always precisely the same (some do inference, mypy doesn't), but the cases where they disagree are usually because one…
I use it whenever I can and it helped me find many bugs in the code (especially not checking if value is None through the Optional). It also makes refactoring your code in IDEs that understand types (like PyCharm) much much easier.

I don’t have the specific example, it was something I observed not so long ago, said well that’s shit, fixed my code issue and moved on. Not being a huge fan of Python outside of small scripts and only using Python as told to use Python I took little interest in the detail as was a case of just get the job done and move on.
It’s been a while since I read the paper I shared but think that mentions it something similar if I remember correctly.
After watching this 2018 talk on typing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWV8t494N88 and this one last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ST33zDM9vOE&t=68s and finally this one in 2021: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lj_9TyT3V98 I think I'll finally start using type checking - it really seems to just eliminate a whole class of potential bugs; a class that is often not tested at that.

Too many conference recordings without a touch on refactoring the broken mapped function ? Wish i could have a real `array.map` just like in javascript.

I personally don’t think Python type hints are particularly useful for solo projects, but are very useful for communicating the intent of my code to others.
If my project is something beyond a small script that I plan on working on on or off for a while, I do find that annotations definitely help. Also, it fuels IDE completions between functions if you annotate your input.

Or just add the following to any CSS injecting extension:
#video-title { -webkit-line-clamp: 999 !important; max-height: 999999px !important; }
