100% disagree! Do not mix and cherry pick terms and definitions to make your point. That's not scientific -) Take e.g. a look in https://opensciencemooc.eu/ and check a nice accepted handbook like "The Turing Way

Nice question! Plenty (open) research papers and thesis available the last 40 years -) Some nice papers: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2002.07135 , https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.17343 , https://doi

From a security perspective cc is highly relevant. I use it to get a solid rating of the security aspects of Python code. I use [1] which is solid and proven. [1] https://nocomplexity.com/documents/codeaudit/comple

"Today we are sharing the outcome: at its July 8 meeting, the PSF Board adopted the PSF Strategic Plan 2026, covering 2026 to 2031." As someone who loves Python, but lives in the EU I see too much emphasis on PyCON_US and US Pytho

The thing is how to deal with principles in practice? Good principles[1] are never trivial. A principle must have implications, some which you can never predict upfront. You will and must have continuous discussing when you use principles t

Read one or more of the absolute best (free) Python books[1] and do some hands-on. If you can not choose, just start with "Python Programming for Data Science". No barrier for starting, its cc-by and requires no account to read. [

Too bad that the focus is open source. This is a common ailment seen in many security research papers! A real concern should be Code-Level Backdoors in COTS software. Backdoors that even many resellers and paying customers are not aware off

" In this paper, we set out to fill this critical gap, focusing on real-world native code bugs in native Python applications (i.e., software written in Python and C as primary languages, a.k.a Python-C software). We start by collecting

Nice improvement! Good reliable statistics for Python package use is a real challenge! So best is to use multiple indicators to get a rough indication! "This change removes one source of potential confusion and misinterpretation, but d

Nice insight in cost involved with a huge free to use systems, Drupal! I think it is always better to make a clear distinguish between FOSS and OSS. Just to avoid these kind of issues in discussions again and again!

I'll still see many languages still not supported. Translating the Python Docs in another language and maintaining it , is a hell of a job. Nice too see this!

Nice to see this! Personally, I prefer CC BY-SA to CC BY-NC-ND, but it is certainly much better than 100% protected. Over the years, I've built and maintain a list[1] of CC BY-SA Python books that have no access barriers, such as manda
