  • Python 2.3.6 Release

    ...about rebuilding if you are using a UCS-4 build of Python - see the security announcement for details on how to determine if your build is vulnerable. This is a source only release. The Windows and Mac binaries of 2.3.5 were built with UCS-2 unicode, and are therefore not vulnerable to the problem outlined in PSF-2006-001.

  • PSF participation in the 2007 Google Summer of Code

    ...about the coding ability of their students, I thought it might be worth trying next year. It also provides a first test of how dedicated the applicant is. Some projects did Skype or IRC interviews to assess the student's communication ability. Again, I'm not sure PSF projects had issues that this would have solved but I still liked it as an idea. Next year, if I'm admin, I'd really like not to be a mentor. I think there would be value in me being solely focused on admin (in part to implement som...

  • Notes

    ...about a factor of 2, by exploiting that about half the digit products are duplicates in a square. Because exponentiation uses squaring often, this also speeds long power. For example, the time to compute 17**1000000 dropped from about 14 seconds to 9 on my box due to this much. The cutoff for Karatsuba multiplication was raised, since gradeschool multiplication got quicker, and the cutoff was aggressively small regardless. The exponentiation algorithm was switched from right-to-left to left-...
