excellent explanation, to add to this since I was curious about the composition, '%c' is an integer presentation type that tells python to format numbers as their corresponding unicode characters[1] so '%c' * (length_of_

This is clever, otherwise you have to coordinate your cache setter and your async function call between potentially many concurrent calls. There are ways to do this coordination though, one implementation I've borrowed in practice in p

Very cool, py-spy[1] has been an invaluable tool in my development process since jvns blogged[2] about it. The power of being able to visualize where your code is spending its time is so obvious and I'm glad people are building tools t

It's interesting to compare palantir's risk factor on open source vs pivotals[1]. Palantir takes a defensive posture saying basically that their ability to not contribute to open source without running afoul their licenses is imp

Would highly suggest listening to the "How I built This" podcast[1] with the peleton founder John Foley, really great story with usual tech themes like doing things that don't scale and finding a niche but loyal customer base

Yes HFT buys trade flow from robin hood because they make more money executing against it but that's not actually to the detriment of the people on the robin hood app. The main way HFT firms make money is by making a market, they offer

I've never heard of HKDF before but it is really an elegant solution to this. My first guess on how to do this would have been something stupid like split the Authentication token in half and 0 pad it. But this would have significantly

[disclosure I am a sanic contributor] aiohttp is a great project, very similar to sanic, I'd say the big thing is sanic is slightly more flask like than aiohttp in ergonomics (which is something aiohttp has been working on[1]). Sanic a

When people say cpython is slow they are generally pointing to two things 1) The interpreter is _slow_ 2) You can't achieve real thread based parallelism I think in general people have a high level concept of (1) as static vs. dynamic

I know pandas is a bit meaty for a date time library if you don't already use it but their Timestamp class is awesome. String parsing is a breeze, offsets and timezones are easy and then there's a ton of support for time series.
