Always love seeing the Pacman rule at the #PyconUS intro. If you want to read more, see my blog post from 9 (!) years ago.

Sometimes, if you can't make it to PyCon, then a little part of PyCon comes to you.
OK. I did it, finally. Travel is booked. If you're at #PyConUS2026 I will be seeing you there.
Three years on deck: one learning the ropes, one at the helm, one steering through the storm.
Smooth seas make ordinary sailors. This year made you a true captain.
Thank you @elthenerd for steering us. 🫡
Congratulations on chairing! Enjoy your shore leave. You've earned it. ⚓

Pablo giving a fantastic keynote en Español and pulling no punches about what "AI" costs Open Source. Now *this* is a keynote.
Just got word from @encukou that #PyConUS for 2026 ended on May 19, 2026 at 20:30 PT.
For you new folks, the tradition normally is the conference ends when Larry Hastings leaves, but this year, he passed the torch to Petr.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who attended. This was a truly magical year and you made this happen.
Texts I’ve received from my 15yo while away at PyCon:
I printed a little mascot for us to have at @ThePSF booth at #PyConUS next month. Come say hi to it and us while you're there!
