PEP 821: Support for unpacking TypedDicts in Callable type hints
This PEP proposes allowing Unpack[TypedDict] in the parameter list inside Callable, enabling concise and type-safe ways to describe keyword-only callable signatures. Currently, Callable assumes positional-only parameters, and typing keyword-only functions requires verbose callback protocols. With this proposal, the keyword structure defined by a TypedDict can be reused directly in Callable. ⌘ Read more

** being goblin **
In response to my most recent week notes, Adrian shared this lovely quote on goblins with me. It comes from my favorite game designer, Avery Alder,

being goblin is a way of flagging that you want to include people not in spite of their sloppiness and uneven emotional growth, but because of it — because goblins come as they are, and they grow in community with one another. Being goblin means being intergenerational in an un-pr … ⌘ Read more

** no beautiful things **
There’s this line in The Hobbit that haunts me. For one thing, it is part of a wider problematic habit running throughout all of Tolkien that, moving in the mythopoetic space, leads to these sweeping statements that define or collapse an entire culture into a single stroke. It seems to me to be like the most damning thing you could say about a culture, though:

Now goblins are cruel, wicked, and bad-hearted. They make no beautiful things, but they make many clever ones.

Emphasis my own, and the quote … ⌘ Read more

That release was quickly followed by a release to fix some small issues that surfaced this last week. Please check out py5 0.10.9a1 and join us at https://github.com/py5coding/py5generator/discussions to share your experiences!

↳ In-reply-to » More widget system progress:

And now the event loop is not a simple loop around curses’ getch() anymore but it can wait for events on any file descriptor. Here’s a simple test program that waits for connections on a TCP socket, accepts it, reads a line, sends back a line:

And the scrollbar indicators are working now.

I’ll probably implement timer callbacks using timerfd (even though that’s Linux-only). 🤔

** 2026.01 week notes **
Will I succeed in making week notes a weekly activity this year?

Only time will tell!

…also, I mean…I feel like the answer is already“no” and that is fine, but anyways.

  • I don’t usually take the holidays off from work, it is a nice time to catch up on stuff while still being able to hang out with my family who are all off from school and work.
  • I’ve moved where I work in the house so that it is easier for me to hang out with the dog who’s struggling to go up and down stairs, which is kinda problematic since … ⌘ Read more

** December Adventure, 2025 **

At the end of my #DecemberAdventure, I re-learned what I learned last year:

that 20 minutes a day can be surprisingly productive,

that I am happiest in writing code when it’s just for me or for a small group of people I know personally.

I find stats and data tracking antithetical to the experience of feeling joy, so I’ve got no bona fide numbers about this, but this year’s [December Adventure … ⌘ Read more

** Year in review, 2025 **
Here, an obligatory end of year wrap up kinda post that, as I started to write in what I assume is the classical platonic form for all blogs wherein I reflect thoughtfully on stuff I read, or games I played, or projects I twiddled at, and what not, I became overwhelmed by the act of creating a kinda cursory and meandering review, because, what, in this run on sentence, do I have to contribute that I really wanna commit to you, dear reader?

Instead, let’s try the following.
