I gave a lightning talk at a bunch of conferences in 2025 about some of the exciting new things coming in Python 3.14, including template strings.
One thing we can use t-strings for is to prevent SQL injection. I illustrated this with xkcd 327 aka “Little Bobby Tables”.
I localised most of the slides for the PyCon I was at, including this comic. Here they are!

Missed the PyCon US 2026 CFP deadline because you were “just about to submit”? ⌛
If you too are a “professional procrastinator”, don’t worry, this is your lucky exception 😉
The CFP for PyCon is still open…
just not the one in Long Beach 🏖️
Jokes apart, you can present your talk in Bologna at PyCon Italia 2026: English talks, 1k+ attendees, late spring weather, great food, and a historic city 🇮🇹
