Async

If you are building APIs in Python that handle a lot of concurrent I/O, the standard answer today is often asyncio or a framework built around it. As a result, application code increasingly looks like this:

Build a memory-bounded async log collector in Python with asyncio - non-blocking fetch, bounded queues with backpressure, schema-gated validation, token-bucket egress, DLQ routing, and an error-code reference for SOC ingestion.

How Preact resumes hydration across Suspense boundaries, why useId made that hard, and how streaming changes the tradeoffs.

Learn how async AI agent workflows use durable execution and checkpointing to survive timeouts, crashes, and approvals without restarting.

Two new UDP Gateway capabilities: WireGuard Listeners can now accept connections from any peer without pre-registration, and Lambda destinations can be invoked asynchronously to trigger long-running workflows.

Async/await makes concurrency easy to write, but incredibly complex to operate. Read on for why the Tokio/Rayon boundary is failing in production, and how explicit state machines fix it.

Enter any sentence (or let the app pick a random one) and listen to two anonymous text-to-speech models read it. Choose the voice that sounds more human, and your vote helps update the Elo leaderbo...
