Michael #1: Leaving the cloud

Also see Five values guiding our cloud exit
- We value independence above all else.
- We serve the internet.
- We spend our money wisely.
- We lead the way.
- We seek adventure.
And We stand to save $7m over five years from our cloud exit
Slice our new monster 192-thread Dell R7625s into isolated VMs
Which added a combined 4,000 vCPUs with 7,680 GB of RAM and 384TB of NVMe storage to our server capacity
They created Kamal — Deploy web apps anywhere
A lot of these ideas have changed how I run the infrastructure at Talk Python and for Python Bytes.

Brian #2: PEP 723 - Inline script metadata

Author: Ofek Lev
This PEP specifies a metadata format that can be embedded in single-file Python scripts to assist launchers, IDEs and other external tools which may need to interact with such scripts.

Example:

    # /// script
    # requires-python = ">=3.11"
    # dependencies = [
    #   "requests&lt;3",
    #   "rich",
    # ]
    # ///

    import requests
    from rich.pretty import pprint

    resp = requests.get("https://peps.python.org/api/peps.json")
    data = resp.json()
    pprint([(k, v["title"]) for k, v in data.items()][:10])
