AI is changing how we code, but should it change how we teach Python? I've embraced LLMs for coding, especially with pandas, but I'm unsure if beginners should start this way. Anyway, curious about the AI way? Try Andrew Ng's 'AI Python for Beginners': deeplearning.ai/short-courses/…

Automate your virtualenv activation! Using autoenv (github.com/hyperupcall/au…), you can: 1. Automatically activate virtualenv when entering a directory 2. Run ANY command when cd-ing into a folder Example: # Set up autoenv echo "source venv/bin/activate" > .env # Or run custom

🐍 Python environments got easier! uv is the new rust-powered packaging tool that might finally solve the XKCD-famous dependency puzzle m.xkcd.com/1987/ Quick start: * `uv run` for most cases * `uv venv` for virtual envs * `uv pip` for packages (don't mix with regular
