Vehicle Routing Problem

Hey, guys! Now I am taking part in the hackathon. We must distribute 20 000 orders between 200 couriers. We thought that we can train a neural network, which would looking for different routes, but understood that we wouldn't meet the deadline in 2 weeks.

We want to make a hybrid ml model and algorithm. What algorithm you can suggest? We thought about MILP, but it is greedy algorithm. What other recommendations you can give us?

Hexora – static analysis tool for malicious Python scripts

Hi Reddit, I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions about my new tool.

What My Project Does

It's a new tool to detect malicious or harmful code. It can be used to review your project dependencies or just scan any scripts. It will show you potentially harmful code pieces which can be manually reviewed by a developer.


Here is a quick example:

> hexora audit test.py

warningHX2000: Reading from the clipboard can be used to exfiltrate sensitive data.
┌─ resources/test/test.py:3:8

1 │ import pyperclip
2 │
3 │ data = pyperclip.paste()
│ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ HX2000

= Confidence: High
Help: Clipboard access can be used to exfiltrate sensitive data such as passwords and keys.

warningHX3000: Possible execution of unwanted code
┌─ resources/test/test.py:20:1

AWS vs DigitalOcean

I help lead a small team of 4 eng working on a django app (with postgres & django). We're growing at a slow rate. We've so far deployed it to Heroku, but Heroku is really unreliable. Just in the last two months, there were two major outages.


I need to migrate away, but I'm not sure if we should switch to DigitalOcean or AWS. We really enjoyed Heroku being user-friendly, which is why I am considering DigitalOcean. None of us have any experience with AWS, so it would have to be me learning how to deploy and use AWS. For reliability, we'd be using multi-AZ on AWS or readonly databases on DigitalOcean.

How would you guys think about this? Is DigitalOcean less reliable because there is no notion of an AZ within a region? How much of a UX/DX improvement is DO compared to AWS in 2025?

Customizing your IPython shell in Docker and Docker Compose

Hi everyone,

I avoided customizing IPython at all in Docker Compose environments because I didn't want to impose my preferences and proclivities on my coworkers. But it turns out it's easy to customize without having to do that.

In this post: https://frankwiles.com/posts/customize-ipython-docker/

I walk you through:

* How to use a local profile in Docker Compose
* How to set simple configuration options (vi editing mode)
* Automatically import frequently used libraries
* Load project specific data you need frequently
* How to build powerful custom debugging tools

Hope you find it useful! Welcome any feedback you might have.

Complete beginner: How to deploy Django app to Windows Server?

Hi everyone!
I built a Django app on my MacBook that works fine locally, but I'm completely new to deployment and need to get it running on a Windows Server in our office.

Current situation:
\- Django app works with `python manage.py runserver` on macOS
\- Need to deploy to Windows Server (not cloud)
\- Zero deployment experience
\- Uses PostgreSQL, static files, and a requirements.txt
What I'm lost on:
\- How to transfer my code to Windows Server?
\- What do I install on the server to run Django?
\- How to make it accessible to others on our network?
\- Do I need IIS or something else?
\- How to handle the database and static files?

Looking for a Django library to build OAuth Server (in CSR settings)

Do you know a Django library for building OAuth server which supports DRF? django-oauth-toolkit seems only to support Django "forms" for OAuth consent screen. I have a separated frontend (CSR). Authorize endpoint should redirect to frontend instead of rendering a consent screen.

Wove: Beautiful Python async

Hi all! I've released a new python library that rethinks async coding, making it more concise and easier to read. Check it out and let me know what you think!

[https://github.com/curvedinf/wove/](https://github.com/curvedinf/wove/)

# What My Project Does

Here are the first bits from the github readme:

# Core Concepts

Wove is made from sensical philosophies that make async code feel more Pythonic.

* **Looks Like Normal Python**: You write simple, decorated functions. No manual task objects, no callbacks.
* **Reads Top-to-Bottom**: The code in a `weave` block is declared in a logical order, but `wove` intelligently determines the optimal *execution* order.
* **Automatic Parallelism**: Wove builds a dependency graph from your function signatures and runs independent tasks concurrently.
* **Normal Python Data**: Wove's task data looks like normal Python variables because it is, creating inherent multithreaded data safety in the same way as map-reduce.
* **Minimal Boilerplate**: Get started with just the `async with weave() as w:` context manager and the `@w.do` decorator.
* **Sync & Async Transparency**: Mix `async def` and `def` functions freely. `wove` automatically runs synchronous functions in a background thread pool to avoid blocking the event loop.
* **Zero Dependencies**: Wove is pure Python, using only the standard library and can be integrated into any Python project.

Websockets in django

I want to understand what are websockets and what are they mainly used for ??

for example rest apis fetch data from backend to serve front-end, what a typical use case for web sockets in a simple webapp.

also how to implement them in django. Do they integrate with django models in any sense ??

what components of django interact with them and maybe some small boilerplate code to help me understand what to do with web socket and how would be great and appreciated.


Thanks

How to Logout Everywhere (Clear All Sessions)?

Hi,

What’s the best way to add a button that lets a user log out of their account everywhere (basically clear all their active sessions)?

Looping through every session like this is terrible for performance:

for s in Session.objects.all():
if s.getdecoded().get("authuserid") == str(user.id):
s.delete()

I also found this package, but it looks unmaintained and possibly insecure:

How should I implement this properly?

Thanks!

R What do people expect from AI in the next decade across various domains? Survey with N=1100 people from Germay::We found high likelihood, higher perceived risks, yet limited benefits low perceived value. Yet, benefits outweight risks in forming value judgments. Visual result illustrations :)

Hi everyone, we recently published a peer-reviewed article exploring how people perceive artificial intelligence (AI) across different domains (e.g., autonomous driving, healthcare, politics, art, warfare). The study used a nationally representative sample in Germany (N=1100) and asked participants to evaluate 71 AI-related scenarios in terms of expected likelihood, risks, benefits, and overall value.

If you like AI or studying the public perception of AI, please also give us an upvote here: https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/1mvd1q0/public\_perception\_of\_artificial\_intelligence/ 🙈

Main takeaway: People often see AI scenarios as likely, but this doesn’t mean they view them as beneficial. In fact, most scenarios were judged to have high risks, limited benefits, and low overall value. Interestingly, we found that people’s value judgments were almost entirely explained by risk-benefit tradeoffs (96.5% variance explained, with benefits being more important for forming value judgements than risks), while expectations of likelihood didn’t matter much.

Why this matters? These results highlight how important it is to communicate concrete benefits while addressing public concerns. Something relevant for policymakers, developers, and anyone working on AI ethics and governance.

Zypher: A Modern GUI for yt-dlp Built with Python and CustomTkinter

Hi everyone!

I'm sharing my project Zypher, a desktop GUI wrapper for yt-dlp built with Python and CustomTkinter.

# What My Project Does

Zypher simplifies downloading video and audio content from hundreds of websites. It provides a clean, modern interface that leverages the power of the yt-dlp command line tool without requiring users to touch a terminal. You just paste a URL, click a button, and your download starts. The current stable version (Zypher Lite) focuses on speed and reliability by downloading in native formats without external dependencies like FFmpeg.

# Target Audience

This is a tool for end-users who want a simple, GUI-driven alternative to command-line tools like yt-dlp or youtube-dl. It's also relevant for Python developers interested in seeing practical applications of GUI development with CustomTkinter, packaging, and integrating powerful libraries into a user-friendly product. The Lite version is production ready for basic use, while the full version is a work in progress project.

# Comparison

Unlike the official yt-dlp which is command-line only, Zypher provides a full graphical interface. It differs from many web-based downloaders by being a local, private Windows application with no ads, no trackers, and no upload limits. Compared to other GUI wrappers, its focus is on a modern, clean UI

Python workflows for efficient text data labeling in NLP projects?

For those working with NLP in Python, what’s your go-to way of handling large-scale text labeling efficiently?

Do you rely on:

* Pure manual labeling with Python-based tools (e.g., Label Studio, Prodigy),
* Active Learning frameworks (modAL, small-text, etc.),
* Or custom batching/heuristics you’ve built yourself?

Curious what Python-based approaches people actually find practical in real projects, especially where accuracy vs labeling cost becomes a trade-off.

Implemented a Production-Ready Soft Delete System Using Django Custom User Model – Feedback Welcome

Hey everyone,

I recently built a **soft delete system for users** in a Django-based financial application and thought I’d share the details in case it helps others.

In production systems—especially in finance or regulated sectors—you often can’t just delete a user from the database. Audit trails, transaction records, and compliance needs make this much trickier. We needed something that was:

* Reversible
* Audit-friendly
* Easy to work with in admin
* Compatible with Django's auth and related models

🔧 **Key Design Choices:**

* Custom `User` model from day one (don’t wait until later!)
* Soft delete via `is_deleted`, `deleted_at`, `deleted_by`
* `on_delete=models.PROTECT` to keep transaction history safe
* Admin actions for soft deleting and restoring users
* Proper indexing for `is_deleted` to avoid query slowdowns

🔎 Here's the full write-up (with code and reasoning):
👉 [https://open.substack.com/pub/techsavvyinvestor/p/how-we-built-a-soft-delete-system?r=3ng1a9&utm\_campaign=post&utm\_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true](https://open.substack.com/pub/techsavvyinvestor/p/how-we-built-a-soft-delete-system?r=3ng1a9&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true)

Would love feedback, especially from folks who’ve implemented this at scale or found better patterns. Always open to improvements.

Thanks to the Django docs and `safedelete` for inspiration.

Cheers!
