Hi there,
Let’s talk about Python—the language we all love. ❤️ You might think you know your way around it, but even senior developers can fall into common traps or miss out on some of its best features.
In this week’s video, I break down 10 tips that will make your code cleaner, faster, and more Pythonic.
For example, comprehensions are not just for lists—you can use them for sets, dictionaries, and even generators. And if you’re not using f-strings yet… well, you’re missing out on a lot of readability and power!
The last tip, though, is my personal favorite—it’s one I wish more developers knew when I review their code.
Cheers,
Arjan

As this Stack Overflow article points out, AI can’t handle complex team dynamics or bring that essential human touch to innovation. Think of AI as your assistant, not your substitute—a powerful sidekick that helps you level up, not take over. Read the full article here.
