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.
I'm proud of my spouse @leonardr for his decades of service to the world. The #Python Software Foundation recently recognized some of that service by naming him a @ThePSF Fellow, and giving him the Community Service Award.

-- the one multiple people quoted back to me, one offhandedly in the midst of talking about their own career -- was:
Infrastructure is a way we take care of each other at scale. (from the start of the talk)
or
Infrastructure is how we care for each other at scale. (from the end)
"play is only play if it's self directed" has just set off a lot of lightbulbs about my school's mandatory sports program 🤔
