  The talks presented at the 2023 PyCon Australia and SciPy are now available as YouTube playlists. Topics ranged from Data cleaning and visualization to APIs, GUIs and Parallelism. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/216-python/16605-the-pycon-au-and-scipy-2023-sessions-are-now-online.html

  LiveCodes is a groundbreaking code playground with unique features. And it is free too. Currently in Beta. Let's look into it. What? Yet another playground? I thought we had a lot already. But LiveCodes deviates from the standard shape of the usual playgrounds. What are its unique features? https://www.i-programmer.info/news/182-frameworks/16618-introducing-the-livecodes-code-playground.html

  Recently AWS Lamda switched from Python runtime 3.10 to 3.11, promising a lot of improvement. In which parts? Back in May we had a look at Amazon's adoption of the Python 3.10 runtime intened to take advantage of the performance improvements that version introduced, in both managed runtimes and container images. Python 3.10 enabled the use of the following enhancements when building lambda functions: https://www.i-programmer.info/news/216-python/16621-aws-lambda-adopts-python-311.html

  Azul's ReadyNow is yet another attempt to tackle Java's warm up issues, on the cloud and large fleets of JVMs or JVMs in containerized environments. Lately a lot of investment has been put into making Java faster to start. This has to do that with Java re-emerging as a major player in the sector of Microservices and Cloud Native applications, due to some great and new language features, optimized JDKs along with frequent release rates;therefore performance should follow along. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/80-java/16592-azul-to-tackle-javas-warm-up-issues.html

  How well do you know JavaScript? Put your knowledge to test with the interactive quiz tailored to devs who think they know it all.  It is true that all web applications are directly written or are transpiled to JavaScript. It does really drives the web because it's easy to get started with and with it you can make functional web sites quickly and without much ado. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/167-javascript/16587-test-your-knowledge-with-the-js-is-weird-quiz.html
