What if your database worked more like Git?

Every change captured as an immutable event instead of a single mutating row that quietly

forgets its own history?

That's event sourcing, and Chris May is back on Talk Python, fresh off our Datastar panel,

to walk us through what event sourcing actually looks like in Python.

We'll cover core patterns, the libraries to reach for, when

not to use it, and why event sourcing turns out to be a surprisingly good fit for AI-assisted

coding. This is Talk Python, Me, Episode 548, recorded May 5, 2026.

Talk Python a me, yeah, we ready to roll. Upgrading the code.

No fear of getting old.

Hey, sink in the air.

New frameworks in sight, geeky rap on deck.

Quark crew, it's time to unite.

We started in pyramid, cruising old school lanes, had that stable base, yes, sir.
