#pyconus — Public Fediverse posts

LWN covered my talk on pathlib from #PyConUS!

If you're using #Python and not using the pathlib module, check it out. I think that it's one of the most underused modules in the Python standard library.

The @talkpython episode about “Everything Security at #PyConUS” is live! @juanitagomezr, @miketheman, and I discussed the current happenings of #Python and #security, the show notes are extensive too:

Thanks for having us on the show @mkennedy! 💜

I have been having so much fun at #PyOhio so far! I didn't manage to go to any talks yesterday other then the keynotes or my own - I was too busy getting myself ready and doing the final things for it - but I have had so many great conversations. Was great being able to hang out with people I had seen but not interacted too much with at #PyConUS. Looking forward to today when I have much less on my plate. Highlights are @itsthejoker telling us anout lambdas and @chrisjrn 's closing keynote.

It was to be expected, but I need to stress how much #EuroPython benefitted from being the host of the CPython Core Summit this year.

As I keep repeating, the main value of #PyConUS for the COMMUNITY is the gathering of stakeholders for in-person exchange.

Given that I barely got any code written at the sprints (thanks, impromptu attrs sprinters, tho! ❤️) b/c I kept walking and talking and solving problems that otherwise take weeks to resolve, is a testament to how strong the attendance was.

Now I’m planning a route to ride to #PyConUS next year, because of course I am.

My understanding from @CodenameTim and @Rachell is that this is going to be a variation on their #PyConUS keynote - which was amazing! You should come to #PyOhio and see it live!

I had a great time chatting with Seth Larson, a #CyberSecurity expert from #PSF at #PyConUS Watch and learn about how to keep your #Python project safe: https://youtu.be/k6E7v_4sEV4

Folks who attended #PyConUS this year: what are the talks I should watch when the videos make it online?

What was your favorite tech talk you attended (or one you heard a lot about)? What about your favorite community talk?

I still have no clue what all the goose talk is about—and at this point im 100% too afraid to ask—but here are some Canada geese I spotted at #PyConUS this year. 🇨🇦🪿🐍

Hat tip to @MaggieFero for catching that I thought they were ducks. 😅

Did you miss #PyConUS this year? 🐍🛡️ Here's a summary of everything security at @pycon US 2026, including the new security talk track, an update from PSF security engineers, and notes from the OSS maintainer security open space.

Can you believe it has been nearly a month since the #PyConUS Maintainers Summit? We are still buzzing from the phenomenal response and the energy in the room.

But that energy isn't just excitement—it’s the driving force behind a more resilient open-source ecosystem. Coming together with diverse leaders to foster best practices, develop sustainable projects, and nurture thriving communities is at the very core of pyOpenSci's mission.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Long Beach!

Improving Go default compatibility in #Debian, trimming build-essential, Python upstream engagement. #Freexian collaborators worked on these and many more contributions to Debian in May 2026.

It’s been a few weeks since #PyConUS #PyCon ended, and I finally wrote a post about it: https://nkantar.com/blog/2026/06/pycon-us-2026-afterfeels/

@sue This reminds me of @BajoranEngineer’s talk at #PyConUS last month, in which there were several intentionally wrong things and each time we encountered one the audience was encouraged to cheer. Hooray for mistakes! ❤️

even when I was still at #PyConUS, #Monsterdon was on my mind

(no, 'crites' was not valid under the dictionary at play in this game of Bananagrams, I did it for the post)

Prompted by a conversation I had on here earlier and recently IRL at #PyConUS and at DjangoCon Europe.

I wanted to share some tips I give to junior developers.

✅ Look local first.
Easier to land, and you get mentored in person. Chase remote later.

✅ Be tech agnostic.
Two years with a stack you don't love beats another year of no offers.

✅ Reverse engineer your job search. Target companies that already employ juniors and reach out direct.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@bagder/116680797364531608

Every #OpenSource project is experiencing approximately this volume. During #PyConUS I shared that the Python Security Response Team is experiencing 4X the number of reports and advisories compared to last year, graph included in reply.

Some news I'm excited to finally share...

@foxleytalent is SPONSORING DjangoCon US again this year.

That's 4 years running now. 🦄🦊🇺🇲

To go with this announcement, I've written a blog post about why I keep sponsoring and attending conferences.

🐍🤡 Apparently, attending PyCon US is all about flaunting your booth #swag and pretending #Python is morphing into Pinyin—because nothing screams "cutting-edge tech" like handing out stickers and discussing #AI in every. single. conversation. 🤖💬

Hey, anyone at my After GitHub #PyConUS open space?

It's the missing piece.

@glyph @dreid This was one my favorite #PyConUS takes by @mahmoud: “if you commoditize me, it’s cosmic justice if you get commoditized right back [by local models]”
