@glyph “that would explain why this venue is so much bigger, #ExcavaCon used to be in a barn”
-
@glyph @chrisjrn I mean, they mined enough steel in Pittsburgh that I think the excavator angle is still valid. Plus I don’t know what the #ExcavaCon equivalent would be otherwise, and that was the most important part of the talk by far.
-
I keep trying to actually follow the advice of other successful speakers and write talks that can be delivered more than once so that I can get practice delivering them and select among several recordings and just generally do less work for equivalent impact, but then I go and add load-bearing lines like "then why are we in a barn" and that's very hard to replicate in a nonspecific tech-conference context #ExcavaCon
-
The #ExcavaCon tag is possibly the funniest thing that has happened to me on social media and I very much appreciate everyone posting to it

CW: Talk spoilers
Stunts include:
Building “until” and “do while” loops from Perl into Python using *decorators* and open sourcing a new package so you can try it at home — pip install do-while !
Building a text adventure game engine from a generator function state machine, playable at home with this command:
uv run -s https://n7.gg/nbpyta -
My talk “Or Else! An exploration of obscure control flow” from North Bay Python is up!
If you have even a passing interest in exploring better alternatives for structuring your code to improve readability — and especially if you enjoy unexpected stunts in the process — then you should give it a watch:

Please enjoy the talk I delivered this weekend at #ExcavaCon 2025 — it is now live on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lcj0-VrJbXQ

Hey, @glyph , we just saw a hydraulic earth mover on the way home from #ExcavaCon !
-
-
And there were some “awards” of various dubiousness. #NBPy #ExcavaCon
-
It's now sunny enough that I need sunglasses outside the barn. 🌞 #NBPy #ExcavaCon
-
@chrisjrn @glyph @NorthBayPython Jokes aside, I was telling someone it would be fun to have a collection of post-conference shirts. For NBPy we could have North Bay Fortran, North Bay Basic, now #ExcavaCon, etc. Doing it as a pre-order might net a few bucks, if there are enough inside joke lovers attending… 😅

Very pleased to have spontaneously inspired the #ExcavaCon hashtag
-
"Oh, this is a Python conference?" @glyph realizes this is not #ExcavaCon as this slide with Brian David Gilbert singing "this song is not a metaphor" pops up. #NBPy
-
And if you're busy writing your talk submission for #PyOhio, you should absolutely make sure you're checking in on the awesome @NorthBayPython conference and #nbpy tag, the conversation is amazing!
Great conferences make for great fun in many ways, and can spawn many surprising turns!
Notably: it appears that there's a new con happening: #ExcavaCon!
-
Love to see @glyph giving an object lesson in the Innovator's Dilemma via backhoes at #ExcavaCon
-
The history, puns, and chaos are why we’re all here at #ExcavaCon, the premier North Bay conference about excavators. What, Python? No, @glyph’s talk is definitely about the history of excavators. #NBPy #Python
-
we are apparently at #ExcavaCon 2025 now that @glyph is speaking #nbpy

I keep trying to actually follow the advice of other successful speakers and write talks that can be delivered more than once so that I can get practice delivering them and select among several recordings and just generally do less work for equivalent impact, but then I go and add load-bearing lines like "then why are we in a barn" and that's very hard to replicate in a nonspecific tech-conference context #ExcavaCon
