I saw 11 new-to-me birds in Long Beach. Conferences are a great way to see new birds!

uv makes it easier than ever to try new releases of Python. You don’t need to wait for the official release to give it a try!

I'm giving a lighting talk about gh-profiler this evening. If you've been curious about it, come to the lightning talk session at 5:45!

The chess open space was so much fun! Some of us will be playing in the Hyatt lobby tonight if you want to joins us. :)

This is nuts. We ate at a decent Italian restaurant last night, which I'd recommend to others.

But when you visit the home page for the restaurant, there's no menu available. Instead, there's a chatbot with suggested questions like "Menus in PDF?"

They replaced deterministic links with...questions to a chatbot???

gh-profiler 0.4.0 supports the `--concise` flag. This generates a condensed summary, with just one line for each main section of output.

I'm going to try to write a GH action that writes this info as a comment on each new issue and PR in the repo. The concise output is much more appropriate for that application.

I think we need to pitch in and buy @miketheman a giant key he can hook up to the Quarantine button on his PyPI dashboard.

When these problematic packages are identified, he can smash that button and feel good every time he does it.
