PyCon US 2025

Pamela Fox (31)

Look at the amazing earrings I won at the PyLadies Auction!
1,674 glass beads arranged to represent a Python program.
Should I wear them to my poster session for everyone to check out?

Yes, I will find any excuse to wear my llama ears at .

I was so excited to meet the creator of the earrings that I won from the auction -- and discover she made a pair for herself, too!

If you squint hard, you can kind of read the Python program in the earrings...

I gotta say, my poster for the poster session is looking realllll cute.

I'd share it here, but that'd be spoilers. Come by on Sunday if you're attending, otherwise I'll share after!

"Flask is a chill framework"

My first was super fun. I loved how many mini conferences were wrapped inside of it (like EduSummit and FlaskCon), the friendliness of everyone, and how easy is it was to find people to geek out over the same things I care about.

Kudos to the organizers for their great work, and to everyone who came and brought their friendly curious selves!

I wrote up my tips for teaching Python with GitHub Codespaces, based off what I shared during the Education Summit session:

(It's actually a lot about how to set up dev containers with Dockerfile/docker-compose, which is helpful even if you're not teaching)

I loved this talk at by @Reuven about when students should and should not use LLMs when learning to program.
Lots of practical tips: speakerdeck.com/reuven/edu-sum
