a Python future
Armin @mitsuhiko Ronacher
None
what can I tell you?
let me tell you about a future
i can't tell you what the future will be, but
here is what I wish it to become
and the future will be different
None
where are we now?
and how we came here
people love python
stackoverflow most loved
stackoverflow most wanted
but what about the future?
let's make a detour
None
None
None
rust is hard
rust is complex
so why do people love Rust? (and what does it
mean for Python?)
the packaging story
the distribution story
reliability and trust
zero cost abstractions
a clear backwards compatibility story
the community
rust tells us a story
rust's values are transparent
[…] the Rust programming language is fundamentally about empowerment: no
matter what kind of code you are writing now, Rust empowers you to reach farther, to program with confidence in a wider variety of domains than you did before.
it's okay to create something complex
if using it is easy
our approach so far
we succeed despite our process
the wider community vs the core developers
the packaging story
distribution
typing
why?
we're afraid of complexity
we work against each other
how do we prevent this from happening?
we need to work together
not to be afraid
we need a vision
and that vision could be bold
working groups?
pay developers?
embrace black and lint name violations?
TypeScript for Python?
py_modules and package.json?
non indexable UTF-8 strings?
phase out cabi for ffi?
load wasm modules?
strip stdlib down?
multi version import system?
simplify object model?
cross compile to wasm?
