I have launched my App to generate Podcasts with AI that I have built with Flask
Honestly, developing this whole project has been quite an odyssey. I started with a bit of a crazy idea after seeing what NoteBookLM was but I felt that it was a bit short with its capabilities, like not being able to use custom voices that only work in English or not being able to accept article or Web URLs to make Podcasts, so I decided to start my project called PodcastAI Studio and it has been quite a journey since I started playing with the LLMs I was going to use or the TTS with the ability to clone voices and deliver a good result, it was quite a journey and I also thought about other people wanting to create or build on this whole system so I decided to create some APIs for developers, also a library that works as an API client and now I'm here making this Reddit post telling all this XD, I hope you like the whole experience and I leave you the links to my App and the API documentation along with some images

Does Flask Support Async? When Should It Be Used?
I've been learning Flask and came across the concept of async in web frameworks. Does Flask support async functions?
If it does what are some practical scenarios where async would be useful in a Flask application? Are there any specific limitations or things to keep in mind when using it?
Would appreciate any guidance or examples to understand this better

VCAT: Video Transcriber and Translator
# Have you ever wanted to share videos to your non bilingual friends? 🌎
Fear not because I (Claude) have made a script that does exactly that!
## What My Project Does ⚡
Type in a video URL along with the target language and the program will:
A) Download the media from the URL (Uses youtube-dlp so most websites are compatible)
B) Transcribe it (srt file output)
C) Translate it (srt file output)
D) Add subtitles using ffmpeg
All fully automated of course!
🔍 https://github.com/tikene/video-caption-and-translate - You can see some sample translations on my repo to get an idea of how the output video looks
## Target Audience 👥
If you have any friends who, for example, aren't fluent with English, you may have ran into some frustration when trying to share movies, videos or shows that you like. That's what motivated me to make this script, making it so you can easily share your interests and build human connections regardless of the language barrier (It's all about making the world a better place 💁♀️)
## Comparison 🔄
The projects I could find relating to this subject either:
- Don't accept URLs
- Don't work with long videos
- Don't add the subtitles directly to the video

How we made Celery tasks bulletproof
Hey folks,
I just published a deep dive into how we handle task resilience at GitGuardian, where our Celery tasks scan GitHub PRs for secrets. Wanted to share some key learnings that might help others dealing with similar challenges.
**Key takeaways:**
1. Don’t just blindly retry tasks. Each type of failure (transient, resource limits, race conditions, code bugs ) needs its own handling strategy.
2. Crucial patterns we implemented:
- Ensure tasks are idempotent (may not be straightforward,
- Used `autoretry_for` with specific exceptions + backoff
- Implemented `acks_late` for process interruption protection
- Created separate queues for resource-heavy tasks
**Watch out for:**
1. Never set task_retry_on_worker_lost=True (can cause infinite retries)
2. With Redis, ensure tasks complete within visibility_timeout
3. Different behavior between prefork vs thread/gevent models for OOM handling
---
For those interested in the technical details: https://blog.gitguardian.com/celery-tasks-retries-errors/
What resilience patterns have you found effective in your Celery deployments? Any war stories about tasks going wrong in production?

How Can Flask Help in Data-Related Roles?
Hi everyone,
I'm starting an internship in about three months as an Analytics Engineer. My mentor mentioned I'll be using Flask during the internship. I want to train and be fully prepared before I begin.
I have a few questions:
1. How does Flask help in data-related roles like mine?
2. What kind of resources should I explore to get better at Flask?
3. What types of projects should I try to build with Flask to improve my skills?
4. Do you have any ideas on where I can find project datasets or examples? I’ve checked Kaggle, but it doesn’t seem to have anything Flask-specific.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions and advice!

Python binary which runs everwhere
I wanted to share some insights about an interesting project called [python-build-standalone](https://github.com/indygreg/python-build-standalone) that I've been exploring.
# What is python-build-standalone?
The **python-build-standalone** project produces fully usable Python installations that include most extension modules from the standard library. The key feature here is that it minimizes runtime dependencies.
# Why Use It?
1. **Portability**: The distributions are designed to work on any system for the targeted architecture, making it easier to deploy Python applications in diverse environments.
2. **Customizability**: Users can include build artifacts and rich metadata, which allows for downstream repackaging. This means you can create a custom Python distribution tailored to specific needs—great for embedding Python in larger binaries.
3. **Sister Project - PyOxy**: For those interested in enhancing their Python interpreter with Rust code, there's a related project called PyOxy that builds on these standalone distributions to create single-file executables.
# Getting Started
If you’re interested in trying out python-build-standalone, you can find the documentation [here](https://gregoryszorc.com/docs/python-build-standalone/main/). The documentation provides detailed instructions on how to build your own standalone Python distributions and includes examples of how to customize your builds.
# Use Cases
This tool is particularly beneficial for:
* Developers who need to distribute applications without requiring users to install Python or additional libraries.
* Projects that aim for a minimal footprint on user systems.

Nefertiti for Sphinx
Hi there,
A new Sphinx theme is available, it is called Nefertiti, and it is highly customizable: it comes with several font bundles and new fonts can be added easily (to avoid accessing 3rd party font sites, like Google Fonts). It supports filtering of the index (in the left side column), which allows to find index entries that we might remember from a previous visit but can't remember in what level they are. It has support for light/dark color schemes, and when given, images switch between color-schemes too (this last feature is based on sphinx-colorschemed-images). Nefertiti provides several colorsets, and there is an extra option to make the header color neutral, so that the primary color adapts to the light/dark color scheme. You can see these color customizations directly in the docs of Nefertiti for Sphinx. Another feature are header links, they are visible in the docs. They are customizable too. Header links can be displayed next to the project's name or in a second row in the header, below the project's name (see examples in this page). They can contain dropdown menus too. All that is customizable.

Agent-Based Modeling library Mesa releases version 3.1
Hi everyone! After our huge Mesa 3.0 release, we're proud to announce Mesa 3.1 less than a month later. It contains some major spatial improvements and groundwork for new control and data collection features.
- https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/releases/tag/v3.1.0
### What's Agent-Based Modeling?
Ever wondered how bird flocks organize themselves? Or how traffic jams form? Agent-based modeling (ABM) lets you simulate these complex systems by defining simple rules for individual "agents" (birds, cars, people, etc.) and then watching how they interact. Instead of writing equations to describe the whole system, you model each agent's behavior and let patterns emerge naturally through their interactions. It's particularly powerful for studying systems where individual decisions and interactions drive collective behavior.
### What's Mesa?
Mesa is Python's leading framework for agent-based modeling, providing a comprehensive toolkit for creating, analyzing, and visualizing agent-based models. It combines Python's scientific stack (NumPy, pandas, Matplotlib) with specialized tools for handling spatial relationships, agent scheduling, and data collection. Whether you're studying epidemic spread, market dynamics, or ecological systems, Mesa provides the building blocks to create sophisticated simulations while keeping your code clean and maintainable.
### What's new in Mesa 3.1?
This release adds experimental support for Observables and Computed, enabling a more reactive and responsive programming model for agent-based simulations.

So I'm Working on Making Django a Feasible Option for Modern Fullstack Development
The title says it all. I want to use django for modern full-stack development. No awkward integrations between React and Django or {% insert_frontend_framework_here %} integrations. So I've opted to build my expertise in django + htmx + alpinejs.
Professionally, I've worked as a systems administrator and IT support person. Just 4 years. I've never really been a dedicated, qualified, or frankly educated developer (whichever's worse), but recently, I've wanted to really focus on building a career as a developer, and I just don't want to use any frontend frameworks that are opinionated. Might be a fool's task, but I don't think I can convince myself to work hard on it any other way. I want to do Python and Django, and I want to do it professionally. I don't know if I should die on that hill, but I really want to.
Rant aside, I'm actually working towards it. I've made a cookiecutter template for building Django apps. https://github.com/lusayo-nyondo/cookiecutter\_djangoapp if anyone wants to see. I want to use it to develop SaaS apps and my goal is to either get a good job or have one of my projects give me a job. In the absence of a job, my plan

ML Trading Bot that uses Ranked Ensemble Learning
I created a ML Trading Bot - trained it for a little over 3 years with 24 years of data and started it live on November 20, 2024. It's been going over a little more than 2 weeks, but it's been doing great so far - not indicative of how it will perform but it's had a great debut if you can say that.
GitHub Repo: https://github.com/yeonholee50/AmpyFin
Bot Website: https://ampyfin-website.onrender.com/
What My Project Does
In essence, the trading bot ranks the strategies and gives them weights based on their overall performance while giving slight bias to recent performance (this is so it is reactive to current market trends and adjusts accordingly). These weights determine how much influence they have on the trading strategy. That's the oversimplified explanation of how the bot works. A more descriptive explanation is done on the website as well as README
Target Audience
Reason why I'm posting here is because I'm currently looking for contributors who have some expertise in Python (maybe want to contribute or just interested) on the trading strategies side. The more trading and diverse strategies there are, the better the bot will perform. This project is aimed towards developers interested in contributing or just anyone interested in the

pytest-fixture-forms - A new plugin to simplify testing parameter variations
Hey Python testing enthusiasts! I'm excited to share a pytest plugin I've been working on that makes testing different parameter variations much cleaner and more maintainable.
# What my project does
If you've ever found yourself writing lots of parametrized tests for different API inputs, credentials, or configuration combinations, you know it can get messy quickly. This plugin lets you organize these variations as fixture methods in a class, making your tests more structured and easier to maintain.
Here's a quick example:
class UserCredentials(FixtureForms):
@pytest.fixture
def valid_user(self):
return {"username": "john_doe", "password": "secure123"}
@pytest.fixture
def invalid_password(self):
return {"username": "john_doe", "password": "wrong"}
def test_login(user_credentials):
response = login_service.authenticate(**user_credentials.value)
if user_credentials.form == "valid_user":
assert response.status_code == 200
