code snippet
The other day, I decided I wanted to create a decorator to catch exceptions and log them. I found a rather complex example on Github that I used for some ideas on how to approach this task and came up with the following.

new release

security
Python's built-in URL library ("urllib2" in 2.x and "urllib" in 3.x) is vulnerable to protocol stream injection attacks (a.k.a. "smuggling" attacks) via the http scheme. If an attacker could convince a Python application using this library to fetch an arbitrary URL, or fetch a resource from a malicious web server, then these injections could allow for a great deal of access to certain internal services.

interview
Kelsey Gilmore-Innis is the CTO of Sexual Health Innovations, and a transplanted San Franciscan living in Portland. Somehow, despite growing up in San Francisco during the thick of the first tech boom and bust, I never was exposed to code until adulthood. I took a programming for non-majors course a few years into college on a bit of a whim and, besides enjoying the subject matter, saw a path to a career. It took a little more time, but I ended up graduating with a CS degree.

pyconus
PyCon, beyond being the best community event for Python developers, is also an event that we happily began thinking about eleven months ago. Almost as soon as PyCon 2015 ended, we had the good fortune of planning the look and feel of PyCon 2016 with organizer extraordinaires Ewa Jodlowska, Diana Clark, and new this year, Brandon Rhodes. Our team has loved working with the organizers on the PyCon websites for the past three years now. They’re great people who always prioritize the needs of PyCon attendees, whether that’s babysitting services or a smooth PyCon web experience.

PyCon JP is a conference where Python users, or people interested in Python, gather to learn from each other and meet other members of the community. We will hold PyCon Japan on September 20-24 this year in Tokyo and are looking for talk proposals.
