PyCon US 2026 2026

Day 7 (24)

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???

The last day of and I can't attend the sprint because I must head home! It was wonderful seeing so many of you! Next year in Long Beach!

As much fun as has been, being off a bike that long in nice weather was a bit disorienting!

The Long Beach bikeshare is a very interesting one. All electronics are on the bike (and solar!), and there is a U-lock and integrated holster. Racks are just dumb metal and for a $2 you can lock to anything. $1 credit if you return a bike to the official rack.

First time using a Sturmey-Archer with a twist shifter but it worked well. Interestingly, it still has the dead zone between 2 and 3, I'd thought that was fixed in modern hubs? Not really a problem though.

Brake levers are inverted which was interesting but worked well. Very enjoyable ride

Heading to the airport to go home from an amazing ! I saw old friends, met some of you for the first time, and made a bunch of new friends. I learned a ton and made my first CPython contribution. It was a great time!
Thank you @pycon @ThePSF @elthenerd @jonafato and to everyone else involved!
Can't wait till next year!!!

Just arrived back home after a long and tiring trip ✈️

But it was absolutely worth it. PyCon US 2026 was an intense week full of talks, keynotes, hallway track conversations, and so many encounters with people from the community.

As always, the best part of conferences for me is the people and the chance to create more connections around open source and Python.

Thanks everyone 💚
Hope to see some of you at PyCon Italia 🙂

Back home today from 🇺🇸

First job is to give my 9 year old the stickers I collected throughout the conference.

I love collecting them for her and she loves putting them into her notebooks. It’s a tradition now and I love this little bit of time we spend together with our stickers!

What’s your favourite post conference tradition?
