We have some security content, and plenty of regular bug fixes for 3.10. = Let=E2=80=99s dive right in.

<https://discuss.python.org/#cve-2020-10735httpscvemitreorgcgi-bincvenamec= ginamecve-2020-10735-1>CVE-2020-10735 = <https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=3DCVE-2020-10735>
Converting between int and str in bases other than 2 (binary), 4, 8 =
(octal), 16 (hexadecimal), or 32 such as base 10 (decimal) now raises a = ValueError = <https://docs.python.org/release/3.10.7/whatsnew/3.10.html#notable-securit= y-feature-in-3-10-7> if the number of digits in string form is above a =
limit to avoid potential denial of service attacks due to the =
algorithmic complexity.

Security releases for 3.9.14, 3.8.14, and 3.7.14 are made available = simultaneously to address this issue, along with some less urgent =
security content.

Upgrading your installations is highly recommended.

This bugfix version of Python was released out-of-schedule to address =
the CVE, and as such contains a smaller number of changes compared to =
3.10.6 (200 commits), or in fact 3.9.7 (187 commits) at the same stage =
of the release cycle a year ago. But there=E2=80=99s still over a 100 =
commits in this latest Python version so it=E2=80=99s worth checking out =
the change log = <https://docs.python.org/release/3.10.7/whatsnew/changelog.html>.

And now for something completely different

In quantum mechanics, the uncertainty principle (also known as = Heisenberg=E2=80=99s uncertainty principle) is any of a variety of = mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the accuracy =
with which the values for certain pairs of physical quantities of a =
particle, such as position and momentum or the time and the energy can =
be predicted from initial conditions.

Such variable pairs are known as complementary variables or canonically = conjugate variables; and, depending on interpretation, the uncertainty = principle limits to what extent such conjugate properties maintain their = approximate meaning, as the mathematical framework of quantum physics =
does not support the notion of simultaneously well-defined conjugate = properties expressed by a single value.

The uncertainty principle implies that it is in general not possible to = predict the value of a quantity with arbitrary certainty, even if all =
initial conditions are specified.
