The Official Python Documentary has published their teaser trailer at PyCon US 2025, and I'm so honored to be part of the story of Python along with other prominent Python figures.
Check the trailer, and watch the official launch of the documentary at EuroPython later this year.
Didn't get your talk accepted at PyCon US? Same!
No worries. There are other opportunities to speak there: for example at one of the summits like the Maintainers Summit.
The Maintainer Summit is aimed for anyone who wants to learn more about open source project maintenance. CFP is still open but only until Feb 22.
At PyCon US I filled like two swag bags full of stuff from various sponsor booths, with intention to share and give them away at my local Vancouver PyLadies meetup.
Todo: Now I gotta organize a meetup.
Problem: I need a venue 🥹 I'm technically an out-of-towner and don't have a strong local network
Help needed: Could y'all help connect me w/ potential meetup hosts in Vancouver area? I'd love to do a PyCon US Recap session for PyLadies Vancouver
Just want to say congrats to @elthenerd and @jonafato for their successful first year chairing PyCon US 👏🏻 Very well done! I hope you all get to take a break now before starting to plan next year's conference 😊

⚠️ Pro tips for any Summit presenters at PyCon US 2025: (hatchery, language, maintainer, community organizers, etc)
1. Light mode for your slides
2. Use big fonts
3. Share presentation link to your audience so they can follow along in case your slides are not readable
We're at the Python Language summit and we just made a presenter change their slides from dark mode into light mode, and also Guido had to move his seat to be right in front of the projector in order to read the slides.
We're still accepting proposals for the Maintainers Summit at PyCon US.
Join us and share your open source maintenance stories. This year we're also accepting Ignite talks (5 minutes) in addition to the longer presentation format.
CFP closes Feb 22, 2025.
The Maintainer Summit at PyCon US is returning and CFP is now open.
New this year, we'll be accepting 5 minute Ignite Talks in addition to the regular 15 minutes talks.
#PyConUS 2025 will be a special personal celebration for me, celebrating 10 years since my first ever PyCon and how far I've come since then.
PyCon US 2015 was one of the turning point in my life that sets the path to where I am now.
Part of me just thinks that I'm just the same person all along, but at the same time I know I'm a better version now compared to before.
The conference is gonna be great, and I'm looking forward to be surrounded by the Python community for the next week.
Conferencing Pro Tips: personalize/label your laptop charger with stickers unique to you.
