SnoopJ @ #PyConUS

@BajoranEngineer giving an admirable explanation of spoons theory and how it actually looks in the workday of a human developer, before talking about how that intersects with our environments

#PyConUS

@paulox giving a great fly-over of the problems "AI" causes in open source.

"The problem is no longer bad code, it is conflict"

Of course including the obligatory XKCD comic

#PyConUS

@baconandcoconut attesting to the power of the @nedbat method of helping some get to a talk: "tell me about something you're interested in" -> [a bit of talking] -> "great, that's your [lightning] talk"

#PyConUS off to a very citywave start :blobfoxaww:

Hey so guess who made efforts to make himself a printer schedule for #PyConUS, and then forgot his pre-printed copies in Boston? :blobfoxfingerguns:

It's fine, it turns out printers also exist in California.

Stepped into the conference center just long enough to get my badge before stepping back out for a quick errand. Despite the brevity, got two hellos and two stickers already. Yep, it's #PyConUS alright :blobfoxlaughsweat:

Okay #PyConUS peeps, I haven't had lunch and will definitely be looking to get a bite after my ~3 PM check-in. Any recs near the conference center for something light or people in the same position who wanna do late lunch?

Not impressed by the cost of a TAP card or the non-functional app, but the trainsets themselves seem great, ride is smooth and not particularly noisy

Cybertruck count: 1

Flying part is done, now to sample LA's public transit :blobfox3c:

Hate flying, but at least I'm headed to #PyConUS :ablobfoxbongo:

some middle-manager-flavored "juice the KPIs" bullshit just hit my gmail inbox, shoving an "AI" summary in my face

#UblockOrigin selector that will zap the entire feature from existence, should anyone else find use of it:

thanks but no thanks, google, I know how to read and write and quite like doing it
