O Alpha 3, O Alpha 3, how lovely are your branches!

This is an early developer preview of Python
3.14

Major
new features of the 3.14 series, compared to 3.13

Python 3.14 is still in development. This release, 3.14.0a3, is the
third of seven planned alpha releases.

Alpha releases are intended to make it easier to test the current
state of new features and bug fixes and to test the release process.

During the alpha phase, features may be added up until the start of
the beta phase (2025-05-06) and, if necessary, may be modified or
deleted up until the release candidate phase (2025-07-22). Please keep
in mind that this is a preview release and its use is
not recommended for production environments.

Many new features for Python 3.14 are still being planned and
written. Among the new major new features and changes so far:

  • PEP 649: deferred
    evaluation of annotations
  • PEP 741: Python
    configuration C API
  • PEP 761: Python 3.14
    and onwards no longer provides PGP signatures for release artifacts.
    Instead, Sigstore is recommended for verifiers.
  • Improved
    error messages
  • (Hey, fellow core developer, if a feature
    you find important is missing from this list, let Hugo
    know.)

The next pre-release of Python 3.14 will be 3.14.0a4, currently
scheduled for 2025-01-14.

And now for
something completely different

A mince pie is a small, round covered tart filled with “mincemeat”,
usually eaten during the Christmas season – the UK consumes some 800
million each Christmas. Mincemeat is a mixture of things like apple,
dried fruits, candied peel and spices, and originally would have
contained meat chopped small, but rarely nowadays. They are often served
warm with brandy butter.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the earliest mention of
Christmas mince pies is by Thomas Dekker, writing in the aftermath of
the 1603
London plague
, in Newes
from Graues-end: Sent to Nobody
(1604):

Ten thousand in London swore to feast their neighbors with nothing
but plum-porredge, and mince-pyes all Christmas.

Here’s a meaty recipe from Rare
and Excellent Receipts, Experienc’d and Taught by Mrs Mary Tillinghast
and now Printed for the Use of her Scholars Only
(1678):

  1. How to make Mince-pies.

To every pound of Meat, take two pound of beef Suet, a pound of
Corrants, and a quarter of an Ounce of Cinnamon, one Nutmeg, a little
beaten Mace, some beaten Colves, a little Sack & Rose-water, two
large Pippins, some Orange and Lemon peel cut very thin, and shred very
small, a few beaten Carraway-seeds, if you love them the Juyce of half a
Lemon squez’d into this quantity of meat; for Sugar, sweeten it to your
relish; then mix all these together and fill your Pie. The best meat for
Pies is Neats-Tongues, or a leg of Veal; you may make them of a leg of
Mutton if you please; the meat must be parboyl’d if you do not spend it
presently; but if it be for present use, you may do it raw, and the Pies
will be the better.

Enjoy the new release
