How do I find internships?

Hey everyone. I'm currently on the lookout for a Django-related internship and wanted to ask for some advice. I've worked on quite a few Django projects. While I feel confident in my skills, I’m unsure how to approach finding the right internship opportunities.

For those of you who’ve landed Django internships, how did you do it? Did you find opportunities through specific job boards, open-source contributions, or cold emailing companies?

Any tips, resources, or strategies would be super helpful!
Thanks in advance.

deidentification - A Python tool for removing personal information from text using NLP

I'm excited to share a tool I created for automatically identifying and removing personal information from text documents using Natural Language Processing. It is both a CLI tool and an API.

https://github.com/jftuga/deidentification
https://pypi.org/project/text-deidentification

What my project does:

Identifies and replaces person names using spaCy's transformer model
Converts gender-specific pronouns to neutral alternatives
Handles possessives and hyphenated names
Offers HTML output with color-coded replacements

Target Audience:

This is aimed at production use.

Comparison:

I have not found another open-source tool that performs the same task. If you happen to know of one, please share it.




**Technical highlights:**

* Uses spaCy's transformer model for accurate Named Entity Recognition
* Handles Unicode variants and mixed encodings intelligently
* Caches metadata for quick reprocessing

Here's a quick example:

Input: John Smith's report was excellent. He clearly understands the topic.
Output: [PERSON]'s report was excellent. HE/SHE clearly understands the topic.



This was a fun project to work on - especially solving the challenge of maintaining correct character positions during replacements. The backwards processing approach was a neat solution to avoid recalculating positions after each replacement.

Check out the deidentification GitHub repo for more details and examples. I also wrote a blog post which goes into more details.

Rotate refresh tokens in JWT

Hi. If anyone has worked with JWT tokens where rotate refresh tokens is set to True, can you please explain how rotation works?

For example, below is my simple JWT settings.

ACCESSTOKENLIFETIME": timedelta(minutes=5), "REFRESHTOKENLIFETIME": timedelta(days=1), "ROTATEREFRESHTOKENS": True, "BLACKLISTAFTERROTATION": True.

Here’s how I think it works:

1. when the access token expires after 5 minutes, user requests a new access token using the refresh token (let's call it RT1) .
2. Along with the access token, a new refresh token (RT2) is sent to the user. RT1 is invalidated/blacklisted.
3. when again this new access token expires after 5 minutes, RT2 is used for requesting the new access token.

I believe I have understood the process correctly so far.

My question is, what is the validity of RT2? Is it 1 day from the time RT2 was issued or 1 day from the time RT1 was issued?

If it’s the former, then rotation keeps happening, and the user will remain logged in until they explicitly log out of the application. Am I right? If yes, then specifying a 1-day validity for the refresh token would serve no purpose.

If it's the latter, then the subsequent refresh tokens after RT1 will not have 1 day validity.

Implementing Graceful Shutdown in a Flask Application with Gunicorn and Multiprocessing

I need to implement graceful shutdown in an application where there are two Flask servers (running on different ports) and a shared multiprocessing setup.

Assume Server 1 handles the actual API endpoints, while Server 2 collects metrics and has an endpoint for that. Here's the mock setup I’m working with:

import multiprocessing as mp
import os
import signal
import time

from typing import Dict
from flask import Flask, Response
from gunicorn.app.base import BaseApplication
from gunicorn.arbiter import Arbiter

import logging

LOGGER = logging.getLogger(name)

def numberofworkers():
return mp.cpucount() * 2 + 1

def handlerapp():
app = Flask(name)

def index():
return "Hello, World!"

Fastapi deployment posting here for help



Newbie in Deployment: Need Help with Managing Load for FastAPI + Qdrant Setup

I'm working on a data retrieval project using FastAPI and Qdrant. Here's my workflow:

1. User sends a query via a POST API.


2. I translate non-English queries to English using Azure OpenAI.


3. Retrieve relevant context from a locally hosted Qdrant DB.



I've initialized Qdrant and FastAPI using Docker Compose.

Question: What are the best practices to handle heavy load (at least 10 requests/sec)? Any tips for optimizing this setup would be greatly appreciated!

Please share Me any documentation for reference thank you

I made this using Django and tailwind

I’ve been learning Django for the past year and working on various small projects. While searching for ideas to build a project that could solve real-time problems, one of my photographer friends suggested an idea: "Hey AJ, can you build something where I can share and showcase my event photos with clients?" (He’s a wedding photographer.) He wanted a way to share photos of live weddings through a website, using a QR code.

Inspired by this, I built **ShareMySnaps** —a platform that allows users to create digital albums in minutes. Although there are many products available in the market, this project was entirely for my learning experience.

Here are some features of the app:

1. Users need to sign up via their Google account.
2. On the dashboard, users can create a folder, which will automatically be created in their Google Drive.
3. When users click to upload an image, they are redirected to their Google Drive page to upload.
4. Users can download a beautiful QR code that links to their gallery page.
5. The gallery page fetches all the photos from the specific folder and showcases them on the gallery website.
6. Each gallery has its own dedicated page, and these pages are customizable (currently, the

Open Source Load Testing with Locust: 13 years, 60 million downloads later

Hi, maintainer of Locust, the popular load testing tool for Python here 👋

Recently our project turned 13 years old, got its 25,000th GitHub star AND 60 millionth download*, so I figured now might be a good time to look back a little.

In fact, I wrote a whole blog article about it. The TL;DR of it is

* Expressing load tests in Python is still much more powerful than clicking around in a GUI

* Open source is fun, messy and benefits greatly from automated testing

* We're going to do tons of new stuff going forward (AsyncIO, freethreading, extended protocol support). Let me know if you want to contribute! There's also a hosted version nowadays (Locust Cloud)

A big shout out and thanks to the almost 300 people who have contributed so far. You rock.

Let me know if you have any comments on the article or on Locust in general, happy to answer any questions :)

* The truth is that nobody knows how many times Python packages have been downloaded, due to mirrors etc, but at least this one says its 61.3M https://pepy.tech/projects/locust?timeRange=threeMonths&category=version&includeCIDownloads=true&granularity=daily&viewType=chart&versions=2.32.7.dev14%2C2.32.7.dev9%2C2.32.7.dev8
