I have to convert a number of large files (up to 2GB) of EBCDIC 500 encoded files to Latin-1. Since I could only find EBCDIC to ASCII converters (dd, recode) and the files contain some additional proprietary character codes, I thought I'd write my own converter. I have the character mapping so I'm interested in the technical aspects. ...

I am the new maintainer for an in-house Python system that uses a set of 3rd-party shared C libraries via a shared library shim that is created using a combination of swig and a setup.py script.

I'm using an SQLite database from python (with SQLAlchemy). For performance reasons, I'd like to populate an in-memory database in the application, and then back up that database to disk.

I have been doing active development in C# for several years now. I primarily build enterprise application and in house frameworks on the .NET stack.
