## [PEP 844: \`\`public\`\` and \`\`private\`\` builtins](https://peps.python.org/pep-0844/)

_2026-08-05 · Barry Warsaw (barry@python.org) · Newest Python PEPs_

This PEP proposes adding two new builtin functions, public() and private(), which document the public interface of a module by keeping its \_\_all\_\_ synchronized with the names actually defined to be public in that module. Both are used as decorators (@public and @private) on class and function definitions, so that a name’s visibility is declared exactly once, at the point where the name is defined.…

## [PEP 841: Adding Frozen Syntax to Optimize Immutable Types](https://peps.python.org/pep-0841/)

_2026-07-20 · Donghee Na (donghee.na@python.org), Nikita Sobolev (mail@sobolevn.me) · Newest Python PEPs_

This PEP proposes frozen display syntax: f{1, 2, 3} evaluates to a frozenset, and f{'a': 1} evaluates to a frozendict. Because immutability is guaranteed by the syntax itself rather than inferred from usage, the compiler can treat frozen displays as first-class citizens of its optimization pipeline: constant displays are folded into a single LOAD\_CONST with an exact result type at compile time and…

## [PEP 840: Name Resolution in Class Namespaces](https://peps.python.org/pep-0840/)

_2026-07-15 · Jeremy Hylton (jeremy@python.org), Guido van Rossum (guido@python.org) · Newest Python PEPs_

There is a long-standing inconsistency in the way variable names are resolved in classes. Several alternatives to resolve this inconsistency are discussed.

## [PEP 839: PyFrozenSetWriter and PyFrozenDictWriter C API](https://peps.python.org/pep-0839/)

_2026-07-15 · Donghee Na (donghee.na@python.org) · Newest Python PEPs_

Add two builder (“writer”) C APIs, PyFrozenSetWriter and PyFrozenDictWriter, following the design of PyBytesWriter (PEP 782). A writer collects items internally; \*\_Finish() produces the immutable object — a frozenset or a frozendict (PEP 814) — in a single pass, without ever exposing a mutable intermediate object.

## [PEP 838: Adding python-version to pyvenv.cfg](https://peps.python.org/pep-0838/)

_2026-07-15 · Konstantin Schütze (konstin@mailbox.org) · Newest Python PEPs_

This PEP proposes adding a python-version field to pyvenv.cfg which records the Python interpreter used by a virtual environment. It records only the major and minor version to be resilient to patch version updates.

## [PEP 837: Extensible JSON serialization](https://peps.python.org/pep-0837/)

## [PEP 836: JIT Go Brrr: The Path to a Supported JIT Compiler for CPython](https://peps.python.org/pep-0836/)

_2026-07-02 · Savannah Ostrowski (savannah@python.org), Ken Jin (kenjin@python.org), Brandt Bucher (brandt@python.org) · Newest Python PEPs_

The experimental Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler has been part of CPython’s main branch since Python 3.13. PEP 744 described part of its initial design and explicitly deferred a number of questions about the JIT’s long-term status. Since then, the JIT has been re-architected and matured considerably. In Python 3.15, it delivers a measurable, reproducible speedup over the interpreter (about 4-12%…

My backup strategy follows the 3-2-1 backup rule : Three copies of your data On two different media One copy off-site Some people argue that your production data (the copy stored on your laptop, for example) counts as one of those copies.

_2025-12-24 · Vic Demuzere_

SQLite does not have built-in UUID functions, but by getting creative with the randomblob(N) function we can generate version 4 (random) UUIDs. Before we continue, it's important to note that you should verify whether SQLite's random functions are adequate for your usecase. They may not return truly random data. However, as the RFC notes, "they (UUIDs) MUST NOT be used as security capabilities".…
