There are many different Python web frameworks, from nano-frameworks all the way up to the full-stack variety. One that recently caught my eye is Microdot, the "impossibly small web framework for Python and MicroPython"; since it targets MicroPython, it is plausible for running the user interface of an "internet of things" (IoT) device, for example. Beyond that, it is Flask-inspired, which should make it reasonably familiar to many potential web developers.

Linus Torvalds was able to release 6.8-rc1 and close the 6.8 merge window on time despite losing power to his home for most of a week. He noted that this merge window is "maybe a bit smaller than usual", but 12,239 non-merge changesets found their way into the mainline, so it's not that small. About 8,000 of those changes were merged since the first-half summary was written; the second half saw a lot of device-driver updates, but there were other interesting changes as well.

So this wasn't the most pleasant merge window, but most of the unpleasantness was entirely unrelated to the code base and almost entirely related to nasty weather. Just a few technical hiccups. And after a very big 6.7 release, 6.8 looks to actually be smaller than average, although not really all that significantly so.

The 6.7.1, 6.6.13, and 6.1.74 stable kernel updates have been released; each contains another set of important fixes.

SourceHut has published a post-mortem of its outage earlier this month. The post-mortem covers the causes of the outage and what steps SourceHut took to mitigate it, ending by saying:

As unfortunate as these events were, we welcome opportunities to stress-test our emergency procedures; we found them to be compatible with our objectives for the alpha and we learned a lot of ways to improve our reliability further for the future. We are going to continue working on our post-incident tasks, building up our infrastructure’s resilience, reliability, and scalability as planned. Once we address the high-priority tasks, though, our first order of business in the immediate future will be to get some rest.
