#398: Imaging Black Holes with Python
The iconic and first ever image of a black hole was recently released. It took over a decade of work and is a major achievement for astronomy and broadens our understanding of the universe for all of us. Would it surprise you to know that Python played a major part in this discovery? Of course it did, and Dr. Sara Issaoun is here to give us the full story.

#397: Evaluating New Open Source Tech Panel
The beauty of open source software and libraries is that you're not stuck with a single option some vendor is offering. This is especially true when that support is poor and antiquated. Almost any capability you think of has multiple options even for a single language such as Python. Just think about how many web frameworks you can pick today.

#395: Tools for README.md Creation and Maintenance
If you maintain projects on places like GitHub, you know that having a classy readme is important and that maintaining a change log can be helpful for you and consumers of the project. It can also be a pain. That's why I'm excited to welcome back Ned Batchelder to the show. He has a lot of tools to help here as well as some opinions we're looking forward to hearing. We cover his tools and a bunch of others he and I found along the way.

#392: Data Science from the Command Line
When you think data science, Jupyter notebooks and associated tools probably come to mind. But I want to broaden your toolset a bit and encourage you to look around at other tools that are literally at your fingertips. The terminal and shell command line tools. On this episode, you'll meed Jeroen Janssens. He wrote the book Data Science on The Command Line Book and there are a bunch of fun and useful small utilities that will make your life simpler that you can run immediately in the terminal. For example, you can query a CSV file with SQL right from the command line.

#391: Pyscript powered by MicroPython
No Python announcement of 2022 was met with more fanfare than pyscript. This project, announced at PyCon 2022, allows you to write Python files and run them in your browser in place of JavaScript or even with interactions between Python and JavaScript. There was just one catch: The runtime download was a 9MB WebAssembly file. That made its uses quite limited.
