Anthropic CEO says at the beginning of 2024, models scored ~3% at SWE-bench. Ten months later, we were at 50%. He thinks in another year we’ll probably be at 90% N

"One of the reasons I'm optimistic about the rapid progress of powerful AI is that, if you extrapolate the next few points on the curve, we’re quickly approaching human-level ability.

Some of the new models we've developed, as well as reasoning models from other companies, are starting to reach what I’d consider PhD or professional level. For example, our latest model, Sonnet 3.5, gets about 50% on SWE-bench, which is a benchmark for professional real-world software engineering tasks. At the start of the year, the state of the art was only around 3 or 4%. In just 10 months, we've gone from 3% to 50% on this task. I believe in another year, we could reach 90%.

We've seen similar advancements in graduate-level math, physics, and biology, with models like OpenAI’s GPT-3. If we continue to extrapolate this progress, in a few years, these models could surpass the highest professional human levels in skill.

Now, will that progress continue? There are various reasons why it might not, but if the current trajectory holds, that's where we're headed."

Bagels v0.3 update! Expense tracker that lives in your terminal.

Hi r/Python! I'm excited to share about the launch of Bagels 0.3 - a terminal (UI) expense tracker built with the textual TUI library! Check out the git repo for screenshots!

This new major version adds a whole new manager page, equipped with a display of 3 new plots (spending per day, cummulative spending trajectory and balance over time). The new budget section is designed to assist with saving part of your income and limit unnecessary spending!

The plotting is implemented with plotext!

# Target audience

Pain point: I find it annoying that my mobile budget tracker often gets out of sync with my actual balance when a record is missing, and I have no clue when that was. Also, it was frustrating that the most feature-rich budget trackers require you to pay to export your data.

Bagels is designed for you to conveniently enter your records at the end of each day, and store them in sqlite for easy export and processing if needed!

Comparison: Unlike traditional expense trackers that are accessed by web or mobile, Bagels lives in your terminal. Intended for you to check in and add records for the day, instead of doing so on the go with a mobile app.

Django + HTMX

I am playing around for a while now with this combo with mixed feelings.
It’s really hard to remain a clear structure when rendering only with partials, snippets and including it then in content…
Do you struggle with that too? Is there any helpful resource how not to lose track with the overall structure?

Example large open source rest API?

I started reading Indico, but looks like it is mostly a server rendered app rather than an API and SPA. Are there are other large examples that I can read?

Need Help Improving My Resume – Seeking Ideas and Feedback!

I’m currently in the process of updating my resume and could really use some fresh ideas or suggestions to make it stand out. I’m applying for a Python Django Developer/Full Stack Developer role, and I want my resume to effectively highlight my skills and experience.

Here’s a bit about me:

Experience: I have 2 years of experience as a Python Django Trainer, where I’ve taught aspiring developers and built a strong foundation in Python, Django, and web development. I’m now transitioning into Full Stack Development roles to apply my technical and teaching expertise in real-world projects.
Skills: Python, Django, JavaScript, REST APIs, SQL, Git, and front-end tools like Tailwind CSS and Bootstrap. I also have experience with creating and deploying projects using Django, collaborating with teams, and building RESTful applications.
Career Goal: I aim to grow as a Full Stack Developer by contributing to innovative projects, building scalable solutions, and exploring modern web development practices.

If you have any suggestions for improving the structure, format, or content of my resume, I’d really appreciate your input.

Are there specific sections or layouts that work best for tech resumes?
What’s the best way to showcase teaching experience in a way that resonates with recruiters?

Need Help deploying React + Flask

Hi, flask newbie here


i spent quite a while developing a react and flask application thats pretty simple,

react fronend, sends post requests and get requests to flask backend, uses routing aswell.

i had it up working fine with localhost:5000 and localhost:3000 and now I'm trying to deploy it,
tried to use Dockerfile with render and deploy them both at the same time, ended up being really frustrating so i switched to using a digitalocean droplet, and following a tutorial that got me setup with nginx, but because my flask backed doesnt really display anything i am having trouble debugging - i set up a system service on the droplet (just a linux vm) so a gunicorn process is alway running, but i cant visit it properly. also i have a domain but it doenst seemt o work with nginx.

any advice on deployment?
Thanks

Any reason to NOT use Pyright?

Based on this comparison (by Microsoft): https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/python/typing/blob/main/conformance/results/results.html

It seems Pyright more or less implements nearly every specification in the Python Type System, while it's competitors are still lagging behind. Is there even any reason to not use Pyright (other than it relying on Node.js, but I don't think it's that big of a deal)? I know MyPy is the so-called 'Reference Implementation' but for a Reference Implementation it sure is lagging behind a lot.

EDIT: I context is which Type Checker is best to use as a Language Server, rather than CI/CD.

blackjack from 100 days of python code.

Wow. This was rough on me. This is the 3rd version after I got lost in the sauce of my own spaghetti code. So nested in statements I gave my code the bird.

Things I learned:
write your pseudo code. if you don't know **how** you'll do your pseudo code, research on the front end.
always! debug before writing a block of something
if you don't understand what you wrote when you wrote it, you wont understand it later. Breakdown functions into something logical, then test them step by step.

good times. Any pointers would be much appreciated. Thanks everyone :)

Django Ninja vs DRF for Async ? Seeking Advice

Hey everyone,

We’re building an API for our app, and while we really want to use Django, we need robust async capabilities since we’ll be making external API requests (e.g., OpenAI, LLMs).

We’re torn between Django REST Framework (DRF) and Django Ninja. While Django Ninja supports async out of the box and looks very developer-friendly, we’re concerned about its long-term support and community size compared to DRF. Future-proofing our app is important since this API will be a core part of our project.

For those who have used Django Ninja in production, would you recommend it? What are your experiences with its stability and scalability?

If not Django Ninja, how would you approach incorporating async functionality into a DRF-based API? Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! We will definitely use Celery for some tasks but rn we're looking for a solution for immediate responses.

Thanks in advance! 🙏


P.S. We also need robust permission handling since we need to be HIPAA compliant.
