2. Turn on the DRF-type stubs we’d already installed but never wired up. It was flagging serializer-field errors, and we never figured it out until now.

It was also very useful to look at the false positives, and we were able to make two changes that reduced them by half:

1. Stop type-checking test files. No true positives were ever caught by this, and dynamic attrs from baker/setUpTestData are a common source of false positives

We reviewed 4,978 mypy runs in our Django app:

• 4,731 green
• 246 failed

Of the 246 failures:
• 173 false positives
• 73 real issues
• 39 caught only by mypy and no other check!

Some noise, but it prevented real bugs from reaching production. 🎉

With all the supply chain attacks going around, we have to be very careful about how we update our dependencies. I've written a full blog post about it, but here is the TLDR:

1. Pin to hashes, not just versions
2. Automate the updates
3. Use dependency cooldowns

Today I learned that you can use None when slicing a list in Python:

[1, 2, 3]
Useful to avoid the edge case where [:0] would give an empty list:

Carlton's proposal to move Django to an annual release cycle makes all the sense.

2025-10-13T09:57:02Z

I had a memory issue with Django's bulk_update queryset method.

The TLDR version is that bulk_update prepares all the update statements in advance (even when batch_size is set) which can use more memory than expected.

granian \
--interface wsgi fedidevs.wsgi:application \
--process-name fedidevs \
--uds fedidevs.sock \
--workers 4 \
--blocking-threads 4

I've tried granian, but it had the exact same issue.

Some more debugging later, and I figured it out.

Locally, django-browser-reload seems to be the culprit. I think it's keeping a connection open that's preventing a clean shutdown.

In production, I think the worker process was running out of memory and the issue wasn't related to shutting down gunicorn at all.

I think what I'm seeing is a bit different. I don't have ...

Has anyone been dealing with gunicorn workers running a Django app not shutting down gracefully and needing to be killed with SIGKILL?

The weird thing is that I can reproduce this locally with DEBUG=True but not with DEBUG=False. Any hints on how to debug?

Since starting a bg job before the changes in the database commit is such a common issue, Celery added delay_on_commit in version 5.4, how long till LLMs start recommending it?

I’ve been playing with Cursor, and I’ll admit it feels like magic. However, it will try to sneak hard-to-detect bugs into your codebase at every opportunity.

The prompt that generated the issue below was “migrate this project from dramatiq to celery” 🫣

there has been no recent code changes in this area, but I did adjust the visibility of accounts since the initial launch based on people's feedback.

If you let me know which account you are referring to, I can look into it. But I can't find any iceshrimp.de accounts added to any starter packs. 🤔

hey! I've just pushed the danish po file: https://github.com/anze3db/fedidevs/blob/main/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/django.po if you open it in a po file editor (like Poedit) it should help you get all the strings translated.

Thanks so much for offering to do this, adding the Danish translation would be awesome! 🙇‍♂️

Hey Michael! My goal is to support all types of services built on top of ActivityPub, but for now I still have some Mastodon specific code that I need to untangle first.

Fedidevs is a side project so my time on it is limited and I can't commit to a deadline, but supporting Pixelfed is already on my radar!

Update: You should now be to add todon.eu and todon.nl to starter packs again.

Keep in mind that the instance defaults are privacy centered so I about half of the accounts still won’t be eligible until they enable discoverable and opt in to search engine indexing in their account settings.
