Hey @badlogic and @mitsuhiko — have you looked at Next Frontier AI yet?

https://next-frontier.ai/

The more I read about it, the more I feel Europe doesn’t just need new frontier models. It also needs the infrastructure layer around them: coding harnesses, local-first agents, evals, reproducible environments, trajectory/session collection, RL data pipelines, etc.

Projects like pi and the broader local-LLM ecosystem feel surprisingly aligned with that vision.

Hello #btconf @btconf @katharina😊

New #WeekNotes: Athens, Brussels, Düsseldorf — and a little bit of open source in between.

Just walking by #indiewebcamp in Düsseldorf because it is happening a few minutes walk from where I live 😅.

Cool Lightning Talk by @anthony about GeneratedField at #djangoconeu2026 😎

Thanks :)

Hello #djangoconeurope #djangoconeu2026 👋🤗

Is this on?

Current vibe: Victorian railway stoker, but for LLMs.
Shoveling prompts into the firebox, watching the gauges, hoping the whole thing keeps accelerating instead of exploding.

Very happy to be part of DjangoCon Europe this year 😊.

Catching up and improving my Home Lab - published my #WeekNotes for last week: https://wersdoerfer.de/blogs/ephes_blog/weeknotes-2025-11-10-home-lab-improvements/

New #WeekNotes: Shipped Steel-IQ after months of work! 🚀 Plus: fixing bugs at Homebrew Website Club, wrestling with Arch Linux on old MacBooks, and thoughts on Django async.

Two minutes.

By the sea without laptop, thinking about home automation plans. More pictures than usual - published my #WeekNotes for the week before last week:

New #WeekNotes: Summer break edition 🌞 Released django-cast with Wagtail 7.1 support and collected some interesting reads on small software, LLM critiques, and Claude doing DevOps.

This week: GLM-4.5 Air + mlx_lm.server + open-webui = surprisingly powerful local coding setup. Open-weight models have come so far. Planning CLI experiments next!

This #weeknotes cover Python sentinel values (spoiler: avoid them unless necessary), IndieWeb integration with django-indieweb, and setting up a new M4 Mac Studio for local model testing. Plus: the perils of switching to US keyboard layout.

New blog post: Managing Editable Dependencies in uv 📝

If you're developing multiple Python packages that depend on each other, this might help!

Shows how to:
- Keep editable installs working with uv sync
- Avoid committing local paths to git
- Automate the workflow with pre-commit

WeekNotes: django-cast gallery nav fixes, tox performance improvements, and why Claude Code is still king after testing the alternatives. Also, I somehow agreed to write about running Django in Electron (send help)

@webology This might be interesting for you as well, right?

What started as "I'll just run coding agents on a remote machine" turned into a deep dive through SSH agent forwarding, tmux clipboard integration, and Fish shell event handlers.

Spoiler: mosh segfaults when connecting M-series → Intel Mac 😅

My working (if inelegant) solution: https://wersdoerfer.de/blogs/ephes_blog/running-coding-agents-remotely-ssh-tmux-and-the-quest-for-a-seamless-experience/

Wrapping a #Django project in an electron app and shipping it to windows / macOS running a full data science stack (>1gb .venv) using a bundled relocatable Python interpreter with django-tasks for long running simulations and htmx to be able to show interactive progress. Still baffled that this works at all.

New #weeknotes! 🚀 Fixed Kptncook auth, shipped a Micropub endpoint for django-indieweb and squeezed in a Python Podcast recording.

This claude mcp add npx... trick is really nice. I like mcp servers, but manual configuration is tricky.
