Python 3.15 is out, and so is your reason to keep it on localhost.
Hostman App Platform now runs Python 3.15, Go 1.26 and 1.27, Node.js 26, Java 27, Elixir 1.20, Bun 1.4, and Rust 1.99.
"Wait, what was this domain for?"

Happy Halloween from Hostman. May your alerts stay quiet and your on-call teammate get first pick of the candy.
What's the scariest thing anyone's said in your team chat?
👻 Alex deployed on a Friday. You can guess the rest.
Well, almost. He rolled it back and went to bed. At 3 a.m. the broken build was live again, and nobody had pushed anything.
He rolled back a second time. The same commit started building before he'd even closed the tab.

He'd been on prod-01 the whole time.
Friendly reminder: read the hostname before you hit Enter.

👻 Boo. Your server's empty.
A Halloween story: after 3 hours of searching, Alex found final_backup.zip. It contained one file: logo.png.
Give your server a less cursed ending: schedule backups in Hostman, choose how many copies to keep, and test recovery before you need it.
