Looks like it was released yesterday:

• https://duckdb.org/2026/03/09/announcing-duckdb-150

Interesting features seem to be the VARIANT and GEOMETRY types.

Also, the new duckdb-cli module on pypi.

% uv run -w duckdb-cli duckdb -c "from read_duckdb('https://blobs.duckdb.org/data/animals.db', table_name='ducks')"

class countdown:
    def __init__(self, n):
        self.n = n

    def __getitem__(self, k):
        if v := self.n - k:
            return print(v),

print("rocket launching 🚀") in countdown(10)

What does it output, and why?
