Christopher shares an article titled "The Uselessness of 'Fast' and 'Slow' in Programming." It digs into how the different aspects of software performance span a wide range of orders of magnitude, and how developers can obsess over irrelevant performance details, often losing more time working in suboptimal environments than building what they need with tools they already know. We also discuss an article about why uv is fast, which explains how most of its speed comes from engineering decisions rather than just being written in Rust.

The quick version: I curate and share the most important Python articles, news, resources, podcasts, and videos. Think the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule) meeting the Python world. I give you the 20% that will get you 80% of the results. If you're a long time reader, welcome back old friend. Alright, let's not waste any valuable time and jump right into this month's updates.
