Announcing PSF Community Service Award Recipients!
The PSF Community Service Awards (CSAs) are a formal way for the PSF Board of Directors to offer recognition of work which, in its opinion, significantly improves the Foundation's fulfillment of its mission to build a vibrant, welcoming, global Python community. These awards shine a light on the incredible people who are the heart and soul of our community– those whose dedication, creativity, and generosity help the PSF fulfill its mission. The PSF CSAs celebrate individuals who have been truly invaluable, inspiring others through their example, and demonstrates that service to the Python community leads to recognition and reward. If you know of someone in the Python community deserving of a PSF CSA award, please submit them to the PSF Board via psf@python.org at any time. You can read more about PSF CSA’s on our website. The PSF Board is excited to announce 5 new CSAs, awarded to Inessa Pawson, Kafui Alordo, Kalyan Prasad, Maria Jose Molina Contreras, and Paul Everitt, for their contributions to the Python community. Read more about their work and impact below.

When building AI agents, people tend to run into the same issues: 🫠 It kind of works, but I don’t know why. 🫠 The agent is hard to extend. 🫠 It’s hard to debug. If you’re just starting or feel stuck, check this free course by @t-redactyl.bsky.social 👉 bit.ly/415JPGd

Have you ever looked at the impressive results that LLMs get on benchmarks and wondered if these results are everything they seem? If you'd like to learn about how data leakage calls the results we see on LLM performance into question, check out my latest blog post. t-redactyl.io/posts/2025-1...
