10 Scientific Estimates That Missed the Mark by a Mile
Science is built on hypothesis, experimentation, and refinement, but history is full of spectacularly wrong estimates made by brilliant minds.

PEP 779: Criteria for supported status for free-threaded Python
The acceptance of PEP 703 (Making the Global Interpreter Lock Optional in CPython), as announced by the Steering Council, describes three phases of development for the work to remove the Global Interpreter Lock. Phase I started early in the development of Python 3.13, and includes making the free-threaded (GIL-less) Python build available but explicitly experimental. Phase II would make the free-threaded build officially supported but still optional, and phase III would … ⌘ Read more

PEP 774: Removing the LLVM requirement for JIT builds
Since Python 3.13, CPython has been able to be configured and built with an experimental just-in-time (JIT) compiler via the –enable-experimental-jit flag on Linux and Mac and –experimental-jit on Windows. To build CPython with the JIT enabled, users are required to have LLVM installed on their machine (initially, with LLVM 16 but more recently, with LLVM 19). LLVM is responsible for generating stencils that are essential to our copy-and-patch JIT (see PEP 744). These stencils a … ⌘ Read more

A PhD level science question is a question that can only be answered by scientific research and experimentation.
And no, by “research”, I do not mean googling.
