All of this is made possible by organizations subscribing to our Long Term Support contracts and consulting services. dh-python development, by Stefano Rivera In Debian we build our Python packages with the help of a debhelper-compatible tool, dh-python. Before starting the 3.14 transition (that would rebuild many packages) we landed some updates to dh-python to fix bugs and add features.

I gave a lightning talk at a bunch of conferences in 2025 about some of the exciting new things coming in Python 3.14, including template strings.

One thing we can use t-strings for is to prevent SQL injection. I illustrated this with xkcd 327 aka “Little Bobby Tables”.

I localised most of the slides for the PyCon I was at, including this comic. Here they are!

Все главные нововведения Python 3.14: от JIT до инструментов отладки

Представьте: ваш Python-код работает на 30% быстрее благодаря JIT-компиляции, обработка запросов масштабируется на все ядра процессора без ограничений GIL, а отладка высоконагруженных систем происходит в реальном времени, без остановки продакшена. Это не футуристический сценарий “what-if” — это реальность Python 3.14, релиза, который переосмысливает саму природу разработки с высокой производительностью на Python.
