Hey @crflynn, I'm not sure if you're already aware of this, but, in case you're not, it looks like pypistats.org is down, unfortunately. This is what I see:

AWS Cloud service users: Be careful with S3 bucket naming
A private empty S3 bucket just caused a 1300 USD bill overnight. Someone knowing your bucket name can generate PUT requests towards it and basically do a "Denial of Wallet" (DoW) attack against you.

We’re building a new static type checker for Python, from scratch, in Rust.
From a technical perspective, it’s probably our most ambitious project yet. We’re about 800 PRs deep!

Just bumped up to FastHTML. It's a new python web framework for creating HTML apps with HTMX and ASGI.

As a side note. Interesting that they chose to use package name "python-fasthtml" and not "fasthtml" (which is still available on PyPI).

Filtering data with few peaks, like a spectrum? Weighted Whittaker Smoother seems like a good alternative:
- Filters noise out effectively
- Can be adjusted on peak wavelengths to filter less
- Quite simple

Also,

matplotlib tip: It's possible to move back and forward zoom levels in the GUI with left and right arrow keys (and C and V for left hand use).
That makes looking around data much faster (no need to hit the home button and start over)
