  • 13:4413:44, 30 April 2025 diff hist +30 Python (programming language) History: 3.13 is now only version with bugfixes: 3.13.3 had 320 bug fixes, and 4 security fixes. The security fixes were backported down to 3.9 (at least one, i.e. all relevant ones). Latest 3.12.10 update got 230 bugfixes, a bit fewer, but will not get any more and 3.11 down to 3.9 only security, older no longer supported. Tag: 2017 wikitext editor
  • 13:3313:33, 30 April 2025 diff hist +86 Python (programming language) Highly recommended to upgrade (to e.g. 3.13.3). All old Python versions had security updates, e.g. relating to XML bomb/Expat's billion laughs attack [protection API] https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3133/ https://docs.python.org/release/3.13.3/whatsnew/changelog.html#python-3-13-3 https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/blob/R_2_7_1/expat/Changes Tag: 2017 wikitext editor
  • 13:3013:30, 30 April 2025 diff hist −3 History of general-purpose CPUs Timeline of events: Thumb (neither ARM) based on SuperH (SH-2 seemingly and/or SH-2A, specify in text?). The source doesn't say so, i.e. not same ISA, though related, uses the word "precursor" (and exploits SuperH patents that ran out?!). SuperH has 16 registers (i.e. 4 bits to specify), even in compressed 16-bit long instructions, while Thumb's 16-bit have only access to 8 GPRs ( subset of 16 in full 32-bit instructions). current Tag: 2017 wikitext editor
