The v13 release is not just a release either, it is also our official announcement of participation in the annual #hacktoberfest. 💻🥨
We know that we're a few days late to the party, but v13 had to get ready before. 😉
This year, the fest is opt-in for projects and we definitely want to opt into taking part in this great event! If you ever thought about starting coding or giving back to your favourite open source repositories, now is the time! Head over to the hacktoberfest website to learn more about it.
We already prepared some issues on our repositories and aim towards opening more issues for starters, but feel free to begin a hunt for improvements and fixes by yourself!

In recent years #REST (REpresentational State Transfer) has emerged as the standard architectural design for #web services and web #APIs.
In this article I'm going to show you how easy it is to create a RESTful web service using Python and the Flask microframework.
What is REST?
The characteristics of a REST system are defined by six design rules:
Client-Server: There should be a separation between the #server that offers a service, and the #client that consumes it.
Stateless: Each request from a client must contain all the information required by the server to carry out the #request. In other words, the server cannot store information provided by the client in one request and use it in another request.
Cacheable: The server must indicate to the client if requests can be cached or not.
Layered System: Communication between a client and a server should be standardized in such a way that allows intermediaries to respond to requests instead of the end server, without the client having to do anything different.
Uniform Interface: The method of communication between a client and a server must be uniform.
Code on demand: Servers can provide executable code or scripts for clients to execute in their context. This constraint is the only one that is optional.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html
multiprocessing is a package that supports spawning processes using an API similar to the threading module. The multiprocessing package offers both local and remote concurrency, effectively side-stepping the Global Interpreter Lock by using subprocesses instead of threads. Due to this, the multiprocessing module allows the programmer to fully leverage multiple processors on a given machine. It runs on both Unix and Windows.
The #multiprocessing module also introduces #APIs which do not have analogs in the #threading#module. A prime example of this is the Pool object which offers a convenient means of parallelizing the execution of a function across multiple input values, distributing the input data across processes (data #parallelism). The following example demonstrates the common practice of defining such functions in a module so that child processes can successfully import that module. This basic example of data parallelism using Pool,

🚀 Gobi Partners Invests in Transak to Expand Asian Market Presence
Gobi Partners has announced its investment in Transak. According to ChainCatcher, Transak, established in 2019, offers financial institutions a single API for seamless fiat and digital asset exchanges, handling KYC, AML, risk monitoring, and local payment integration.
The investment aims to support Transak's expansion into the Asian market. Transak has already established its Asia-Pacific headquarters in Hong Kong and plans to enhance integration with payment networks and banking partners in the ASEAN region.
