+The Python sample uses `PeriodicImpulse` to re-read the placeholder external service on a fixed interval, and re-publishes the result into the global window on every firing. Use `Latest.Globally().without_defaults()` rather than `Latest.Globally()`: the variant with defaults adds its own side input, which stops the transform from emitting more than once.
