Speeding up Pillow's open and save
The author benchmarks and improves Pillow’s image open/save performance by avoiding unnecessary plugin imports and using lazy loading, leading to large speed gains in Python. Results show opening PNG images can be around 2.6 times faster and WebP up to 14 times faster, with similar improvements in saving images, and the changes are included in upcoming Pillow releases.

Hi, I'm Dima
Oban.py - deep dive
Oban, the job processing framework from Elixir, has finally come to Python. I spent some time exploring it, and here is how it works.
Let's Build Pipeline Parallelism from Scratch
The tutorial walks through building pipeline parallelism from the ground up, explaining how to split large AI models and training workloads across multiple GPUs to improve training efficiency. It breaks down concepts with step-by-step examples so developers can understand how data and compute are partitioned and coordinated in a distributed training system.

Let's Build Pipeline Parallelism from Scratch – Tutorial
Pipeline parallelism speeds up training of AI models by splitting a massive model across multiple GPUs and processing data like an assembly line, ensuring no single device has to hold the entire model in memory.

TL;DR: Complete multiplayer game in the browser made of 270 lines of Python and 0 lines of JavaScript running on Django thanks to Django LiveView.
