#pyconus2023 — Public Fediverse posts

@mariatta I've been meaning to ask you what the hashtag is for PyCon? Last year I saw all of:

#PyCon
#PyCon23
#PyCon2023
#PyConUS
#PyConUS23
#PyConUS2023

My wish is also for event organisers to include the day names with dates, it can make it much easier to plan.

For example:

Wednesday, May 15 - Thursday, May 23, 2024

For some events, knowing weekend/weekday or even specific day means I instantly know if can rule it out.

I am only a few minutes into @nedbat ‘s #PyConUS2023 keynote and I can already tell I am going to love it.

Here's @AlexWaygood's writeup of the burnout discussion at the #Python language summit:

At #PyConUS2023, @davidism facilitated an open space discussion of "maintainer #burnout, how to survive it, and maybe how to prevent it." Our notes, my analysis, and useful links in a new blog post:

@shauna ooooh, I am writing a follow-up to the #PyConUS2023 open space on maintainer burnout that @davidism facilitated, and this link is going in there!

And, as of today, a negative PCR test, nearly a week after I left Salt Lake City. Looks like #PyConUS's #COVID mitigations, and my precautions, worked for me!

More on what I did: https://www.harihareswara.net/posts/2023/pycon-2023-argument-clinic-mitigating-covid-risk/ & https://www.harihareswara.net/posts/2022/how-i-thought-about-an-in-person-conference-choice/ . I did find that the CO2 levels in some indoor spaces were ~500-600ppm, near outdoors levels, and thus was ok with lowering my mask to sip something indoors, which I did ~15-20 times.

I gave a talk in Spanish for the @pyconcharlas at #PyConUS2023, and it was a whole lot of fun. So cool to hear people laugh live, thanks for having me! 🐍😊😁

An amazing experience at #PyConUS2023, this improvised open space, talking @FastAPI, @pydantic, and type hints with Guido, the creator of Python, for 1+ hour 🤩🐍

Even more after @samuel_colvin, @carljm (and other 10-20) joined 😎

All because @1st1 forced him to meet me 😅

Maybe this is what #PyConUS2023 is about. A bunch of nerds having fun together, and ending all energized and inspired to go and build the things that the world needs us to build. 🐍😎🚀

@mkennedy, @pradyunsg, @david_montague_, @marcelotryle https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1652089629611556864

The last part of the @pydantic team and the newly assembled team translating the @FastAPI docs to Ukrainian during the last #PyConUS2023 sprint. 🤓🚀

@marcelotryle, @david_montague_

Bye SLC. It’s been a time! #pycon #pyconus #pyconus2023

I have gotten a negative on an antigen test and a Lucira rapid molecular test since leaving #PyConUS2023 a few days ago, in addition to my negative tests while in Salt Lake City, so things are looking good so far re: #COVID. Hope others have also remained uninfected!

#PyConUS #PyCon2023

Only cool and badass people at that table 😎 ...plus me. 😅😂

During #PyConUS2023 🐍

I've written my thoughts down for #PyConUS2023 . The 5 days meeting with "my nakama" was an intense experience and worth the 12H trip and jetlag. Thank you for your company, thoughts, ideas and friendship. Good work to @ThePSF and all the people in between that made it possible.

I got to meet people that I didn't even expect in #PyConUS2023, it was a nice surprise to find some Singapore friends, Javan Tan and Su Lyn Choo, and go for dinner with them and @marlene_zw 😁

...also, that was a lot of ribs 😂

The great @llanga! Finally met him in person in #PyConUS2023. I've been failing to meet him in 2 or 3 previous conferences. 😅

And yes, he's as cool in person as you imagine. Actually cooler. 😎

One of the two most metal people in Python 🤘🐍
(the other, @pyblogsal, escaped)

One of the people I was most excited to meet in #PyConUS2023 was @WillingCarol 🤩

CPython core dev, prev steering council member, Jupyter core dev, and to me, she represents the Python community 🤗

Came for the language, stayed for Carol (and others) 😎

I met @sethmlarson at #PyConUS2023! 😁

He's one of the maintainers of @urllib3, one of the most (the most?) downloaded Python libraries, you probably don't use it directly, but you probably use something that uses it. 😎

One of the last dinners at #PyConUS2023 with nice Python people. 🐍🚀

@xsc27, @Glnnlhmn, @webknjaz

And the new team translating the @FastAPI docs to Ukrainian 😎💪

The magic of PyCon, @patrick91 got @FastAPI running on the browser, with client and everything, on @pyodide during #PyConUS2023 🤯

This will be amazing for docs and learning (probably later with @pyscript_dev). 😅😎

@marcelotryle and I were cheerleading. 😂

I caught @reydelhumo training to become a Python release manager during #PyConUS2023 😅

Finally met @mkennedy from @talkpython in person! 🤗

We got to hangout and even recorded a podcast during #PyConUS2023, with adventures in the middle. 😅

You will laugh hearing that episode once it's released. 😂

Here's @emilyemorehouse at #PyConUS2023, she's so cool, kind and badass. 😎

She added the walrus operator to the Python language and she's one of the five steering council members (the people that take the key and hard decisions in Python). 🦭🐘 (for the lack of a walrus emoji).

Who would have guessed that @zeeg, cofounder of @getsentry and @charliermarsh, creator of Ruff and founder of @astral_sh, are even nicer and cooler in person than online! 😎😁

At another great party in #PyConUS2023 🎉

Here's @paulweveritt at #PyConUS2023, the friendly face of @pycharm 😎

I just discovered in Guido's talk that he did a lot of the work setting up @ThePSF 🤯

He also co-hosted one of the funnest parties at PyCon 🎉

I bumped into @teoliphant on the street at #PyConUS2023 🤩

He created @numpy_team, it powers pretty much all AI and scientific computing, from ChatGPT to black hole pics. ✨

He recognized me and gave me a hug. Considering him a friend blows my mind. 🤯

Microsoft friends at #PyConUS2023! 🤗

@luumelo14, @savostrowski, @kjaymiller

Some of the people ensuring you get a nice developer experience with @FastAPI on @pythonvscode and @Azure ✨

I was able to hangout a lot with the amazing @marlene_zw at #PyConUS2023 🤩

She's such a cool person and friend, she's one of the people that represent (to me) the Python community spirit the most. 😁✨
