"Build AI agents that don't stop running. Join Scale AI and Temporal to learn how Agentex and Python enables long-running, fault-tolerant agents with human-in-the-loop workflows, Python continues to get better Real Python's 2026 cohorts are open. Online Python training created by a community of experts. Give your team the PyCoder's Weekly 2025 Top Articles & Hidden Gems PyCoder's Weekly included over 1,500 links to articles, blog posts, tutorials, and projects in 2025."
"Christopher Trudeau is back on the show this week to help wrap up everything by sharing some highlights and uncovering a few hidden gems from the pile. REAL PYTHON podcast Python Numbers Every Programmer Should Know Ever wonder how much memory an empty list takes? How about how long it takes to add two integers in Python? This post contains loads of performance data for common Python operations. MICHAEL KENNEDY"
"Webinar: Building Deep Agents with Scale AI & Temporal plus a live procurement agent demo → sponsor TEMPORAL What async Really Means for Your Python Web App? async support and with that comes pressure to switch. See the realistic effects that switching to async would have on your web servers. ARTEM CHERNYAK uv's speed comes from engineering decisions, not just Rust. Static metadata, dropping legacy formats, and standards that didn't exist five years ago. How uv Got So Fast ANDREW NESBITT"
Performance measurements cover Python 3.6–3.14 and compare behavior across Apple M1 and M5, Zen2, and Cascade Lake CPUs, with operation-level timings and resource footprints. Async support for Python web applications introduces concrete trade-offs and can pressure teams to migrate, with measurable effects on server behavior. uv achieves high runtime speed through engineering decisions such as static metadata, dropping legacy formats, and leveraging newer standards rather than language choice alone. Agentex combined with Temporal enables long-running, fault-tolerant AI agents and human-in-the-loop workflows, demonstrated in webinars and live demos. Curated resources and podcasts aggregate thousands of links, highlights, and practical performance insights for developers.
