also cool profiler update https://peps.python.org/pep-0799/
With Python 3.15, a new sampling profiler was introduced under
profile.sample. Known as tachyon, this tool uses statistical sampling to infer performance characteristics, which introduces zero overhead profiling and works better with the modern Python interpreter. It also supports multiple threads, async functions, free threading builds and attaching to running processes. Despite these strengths, the placement of tachyon underprofile.sampleis misleading and obscures its importance.
i'm a BIG fan of the phrasing "sampling to infer performance characteristics" (emphasis mine). like yeah this is just a number you gotta put it in context to generate #insights

Open science forms the pillar for mankind to invent a better world, and a society worth living in. Or so it should be, if academia weren’t held captive or willing prisoner to commercial interests. Fediverse opens new grazing grounds for #scientists, #engineers, or anyone for that matter, to uncover new #wisdom and #insights collectively.
If only more #OpenScience tools would add #ActivityPub support to join our #fediverse.
But we have @bonfire Open Science app, and @scifed as early adopters.
The free and #commons-based fediverse grows organically, like a beautiful garden. Social web technologies can only emerge and evolve by #CommonsParticipation, crafted by many people with love and the joy of coding, while exploring realms of creation.
Joyful creation is where #fediverse allows us to ✨ social code the social code together.
