Understand the portable low-level mechanism behind many event loops.
Turn a signal into a stop request and let normal control flow release resources safely.
Integrate a small C function while recognizing that the native boundary lacks Python's usual protections.

Separate translatable messages from logic and load the correct catalog for each locale.
Validate Python modules without importing or executing application code.
Capture a useful clue when a native extension or hung process cannot raise an ordinary Python exception.
Run small cleanup tasks after normal interpreter shutdown without treating them as an absolute guarantee.
Use the gc module for focused diagnosis of reference cycles and memory pressure.
Compare a micro-optimization with a reproducible experiment before changing production code.
Keep small documentation examples aligned with the code they describe.
