Thanks to @eelcoa I learned today, that the Python Software Foundation ( @ThePSF ) rejected a $1.5 Million USD fund, because they demonstrated integrity by not bowing down to #Trump and instead stand by their mission statement "(...) to support and facilitate the growth of a diverse and international community (...)", something that the US Government is blackmailing companies and organisations around the world(!) to stop doing!

This is worth supporting, and with approximately over 8 Million estimated Python programmers around the globe[1], that $1.5 Million USD could be reached by all of us with ease by giving back.

Support them here: https://psfmember.org/civicrm/contribute/transact/?reset=1&id=2

Donate, spread the message, follow them on mastodon, and be part of showing big tech companies of how it is done right!

So it goes. Part I

🧩 Been poking at eval() and exec() in Python — they're deceptively powerful. One stray input and you're one __import__ away from a shell.
Remote Code Execution (RCE) isn’t just old news — it’s still real, still nasty in the wrong hands.

🌲 Python’s ASTs let you trace what a script really does without running it — but just one layer of obfuscation, and they fall apart.

Small tools, deep cuts. Keep digging.
