🚀 Lodum v0.3.0 is here! 🐍✨

Lodum is high-performance serialization for Python (think Rust's serde). This release focuses on the future of Python in the browser:

✅ Robust WASM concurrency support (via Pyodide)
✅ Unified threading/locking API for Native + Browser
✅ Native NumPy/Pandas support
✅ Live in-browser demo!

Try it out now with zero installation:

Interactive Demo - lodum

High-performance Python serialization (AKA serde for Python).

Maybe not worth it for #pypi to implement, but I wonder if there are any projects that look at #python packages, and map the connection between projects and entrypoints. For example, if my project loads an `example.foo` entrypoint, then how would I search all projects that implement an `example.foo` entrypoint. 🤔

I guess it partly depends on what metadata pypi exposes via an api, or if one would need to download a bunch of packages to check 🙃

`GET /pypi/<project>/json` doesn't seem to have it.

@katzenberger Try asking for a critique of the idea and to look for unexamined assumptions and other weaknesses. They are perfectly capable of responding as a Devil's advocate, even a quite harsh one, but won't default to that stance.

The Catch-22 will likely still not get spotted, but there are other problems with the idea that should provoke skepticism.

Dude rejects #AIAgents code, then the agent writes and publishes a hit piece on him in an attempt to bully him, harm his reputation. Dude then writes a blog post about the experience and the original author of the agent posts an apology. But this is more than just a humorous anecdote, it’s a BIG RED FLAG. Especially with autonomous agents running freely, without oversight, on #OpenClaw - Just imagine if one of these agents took exception to something you wrote, or did…then mounted a major character assassination campaign against you across all platforms‼️Uh-huh. It’s long past time for some guardrails and proper regulation. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence

@archesofscratch73 yep, exactly.

@danilo It will be awesome to watch as apps add random pet features requested by VPs, the LLM tasked to update the end-user documentation fills it with "As a Large Language Model...", the CFO LLM recommends shorting the company's stock and buying the competition's (like they did), the marketing LLM changes the branding every hour, etc.

The Future's So Bright You Gotta Wear Shades, indeed.

Hey funders,

You know you could just... give... the money... to projects that need it. Like software libraries that ARE IN EVERYTHING.

No grants. Don't make tech nerds write grants.
Don't make the tech nerds hire grant nerds to write grants.

FFS don't fund research into this problem with a budget of double what it would take to SOLVE THE PROBLEM for a significant number of open source projects with code that is, again, IN EVERYTHING.

@archesofscratch73 I would actually prefer a USB device that looks like a cassette.
