pandas new infrastructure (OVH donation)
by Marc Garcia Sept. 20, 2024

Sept. 20, 2024

Hi all, pandas has received a donation from OVHcloud <https://www.ovhcloud.com/> to support the project infrastructure, with OVHcloud public cloud credits (an initial amount of 10,000 EUR for a period of one year). OVH is open to sponsor longer term and also other projects of the ecosystem (or NumFOCUS as a whole), but we started with this to have feedback at a smaller scale first. The credits will be used initially for: - Hosting of the pandas website - Running the pandas benchmarks - Speeding up the project CI I detail next what I have in mind to set up for each. If anyone is interested in getting involved, or has ideas, comments... please let me know. I'll publish updates here as there is progress on this. Website: I'm planning to experiment on splitting the website in two (it'll be transparent for users). The website and the stable docs which receive most of the traffic can probably be stored in Cloudflare pages. We're already using Cloudflare as a CDN, so instead of using it as a cache, we can publish the documents there. The rest of the docs (old versions and the dev version) can be hosted in bucket storage of the OVHcloud. Response times may be a bit slower, but our website is bigger than the Cloudflare quota, and having old docs rarely accessed in a CDN seems unnecessary anyway. - Benchmarks: OVHcloud instances have guaranteed hardware, and we'll be checking if this is enough for the results of the benchmarks to be consistent over runs, or if there is too much variability and we need dedicated hardware. If consistency is good enough that would be great, since our benchmarks mostly use one core, and using dedicated hardware is likely to be a decent waste of resources, since most servers will likely have 16 cores or more. We'll discuss with OVH if dedicated hardware is needed, as at the moment their public cloud doesn't offer it (there is an alpha for providing dedicated instances, but we need to check with them). - Faster CI: Our GitHub runners are small, and most builds take around one hour or more to finish. We should be able to use bigger OVH instances for our existing CI pretty easily, via their OpenStack API and CIrun.

Is it time for a bi-weekly pandas call?
by Marco Gorelli May 13, 2024

May 13, 2024

Currently, there's a monthly pandas call, which has been in place for several years. Seeing as there's now more people working on pandas as part of their jobs, might it be time to increase the frequency? E.g. to meet every 2 weeks, instead of once a month?

10.th Grader Python Localization Projects help/advice/permission // Egemen Arda S.
by Egemen . Sept. 18, 2023

Sept. 18, 2023

Hello, I am working on a project to localize software languages to my own language and I am currently doing my research on python. If I give a short example of what I am trying to do, for example, I call the functions in the "Random" package in the functions I create and I change only the name of the function and in this way the function works the same way but the name of the function is changed. Of course, my more detailed research on this continues. What I want to ask is whether I can do something like this with your package, if I can, is it possible to do it with the same logic in the example above. Thank you for your time. If you can reply me to this email i would be very happy! Windows için Posta<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> ile gönderildi

Pandas and Jupyter Notebook
by Ivan Zubkov Sept. 18, 2023

Sept. 18, 2023

Dear colleagues! I have a confusing issue with pandas. I cannot open the documentation of inbuilt pandas functions on my jupyter notebook using shift-tab mac os monterey. At the same time, for example, everything works for numpy functions. I have already tried many ways to solve this problem but it is still not working. I use Iterm2 and Anaconda for work. My jupyter notebook version: 6.5.4 My pandas version: 2.1.0 Could you give me some advice on this? Thank you in advance! Kind regards, Ivan Zubkov
