Two slide titles: "Setup" with an illustration of a snake looking out of a cardboard box, and "About testing" with a snake looking at a checklist with green checkmarks.
A snake wrapped around a panflute
Going the extra mile for my #pytest trainings and found someone to draw me some illustrations for my slides! Love how things look so far. #Python

IMHO the better phrasing would be that it's the same concept that already existed for a long time, just formalized as part of a type system. Kind of similar to how we used to annotate types as part of a docstring, but type annotation syntax formalized that.

I'd say it's "correct" if you consider Iterable, Sizable, etc. as types - not in the sense of "a class" but in the sense of "can be used as a type annotation in place of a class-based type".
The overload the author sees might then be between protocol as an informal term, and as a typing feature.

Screenshot of a "Arguments to select tests" slide which shows pytest arguments like --last-failed or --stepwise, with a QR code and link to https://pyte.st/mathspp-select
We've gone full circle: My pytest training slide now links to @mathspp.com's blog post with an (outdated) screenshot of the same slide 🤣

Sponsor @pytest-dev on GitHub Sponsors
The pytest framework makes it easy to write small tests, yet scales to support complex functional testing for applications and libraries.
It is now easy to contribute financially to the pytest project, as we are now members of the GitHub Sponsors program:
github.com/sponsors/pyt...
This is an easy and convenient way to contribute, integrated with GitHub.
Any contribution, no matter the size, is really appreciated by the team!

GitHub - The-Compiler/pytest-xvfb: A pytest plugin to run Xvfb (or Xephyr/Xvnc) for tests.
A pytest plugin to run Xvfb (or Xephyr/Xvnc) for tests. - The-Compiler/pytest-xvfb
I just released #pytest-xvfb v3.1.0 and .1 (after some CI trouble)!
Other than the usual Python version and tooling updates, this exposes a new #pytest hook pytest_xvfb_disabled(), which can be implemented to dynamically decide to disable Xvfb for this test run.

Making sure you're not a bot!
I don't think @xeiaso.net is to blame here FWIW (they created Anubis), from what I can gather Gnome hard-coded a block role based on some User-Agent regex shenanigans. As usual it can easily be circumvented by pretending to be a newer Chromium. Sigh.

Linux Foundation Announces the Launch of Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers
New initiative to support open development and enhance projects within the Chromium ecosystem
The Chromium projects themselves will remain under current, existing governance structures while just the new "Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers" will be housed under the Linux Foundation.
(quotes added by me)
"Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers" is the name of the initiative...

The Linux Foundation launches an initiative to support open-source Chromium-based browsers
Google's Chromium source code will be used as the basis for new open-source web browsers.
@sjvn.bsky.social FWIW, I think www.zdnet.com/home-and-off... is wrong: You say "encourage the creation of new Chromium-based web browsers" and "any new browsers will be housed under the Linux Foundation", but that's the exact opposite what the @linuxfoundation.org press release says: [1/2]
