The moment that brought down la casa. Gracias @pablogsal.com #pycon

Current planned sprints at #pycon

#pycon has an AI track this year. I'll have my AI agent watch all the videos later and give me a paragraph summary (kidding, maybe???). Meanwhile I'll be interacting with real humans at the open spaces. Some of which are about AI. Hmmm.....

Python is 35 years old - now eligible for the US Presidency. I'm having a hard time processing that. Happy (sort of) Birthday Python! #Pycon

Booths at #pycon

Lots of heavy hitting sponsors at this year's #pycon.

And so it begins. #pycon

Started my #meshtastic journey today at #scale23x.

Welcome to every programmer's favorite "off by three" conference! #scale23x !

The #pybeach Python conference offers free masks and has homemade Corsi-Rosenthal boxes in the venue. The commitment to health and safety is much appreciated.

TIL: In #emacs #magit, If you have a line or region selected, magit-log-buffer-file will show you the git history of just that region.

Exciting news!! The first batch of #PyConUS 2025 recordings is now available on the PyCon US YouTube channel here: www.youtube.com/c/pyconus 🐍 📺 Stay tuned - more recordings will be added soon!

Home from a great #PyconUS at last. Thanks to alll who organized, volunteered, presented,, sprinted, and attended. I made many new contacts, but I hope I made many new friends.

"In the room where it happens" CPython core sprint at #PyconUS

TIL: On #Python MacOS, setuptools will use your ARCHFLAGS env var to determine what architecture to target for C extensions. #PyconUS Sprints. github.com/python/cpyth...

TIL the #Python wheel-next initiative's slogan is "reinvent the wheel". Well played. #PyconUS

Very large numbers of first timers and open spaces at #PyconUS

Wow. Awesome. Pablo Galindo Salgado showing a welcome playful attitude during the Steering Council keynote. #PyconUS

"We believe free threading is the future of Python" (but still experimental right now). Official position of the #Python steering council. #PyconUS

Python steering council announces zstd compression will be supported in Python 3.14 stdlib #PyconUS

Watching the steering council keynote, did you know Pablo Galindo Salgado and Łukasz Langa have their own podcast? I heartily recommend, core dot py (search with a .) #PyconUS

OH: jacobian: "I didn't read the docs". me: "YOU'RE SITTING NEXT TO Eric Holscher". #PyconUS

TIL: you can inject an optional dependency into a uv tool install with `uv tool --with $DEP install $TOOL` #PyconUS

TIL: The Python Steering Council has open office hours. See github.com/python/steer... #PyconUS

TIL: uv can run a command with a "one off" dependency without installing it into your current venv. `uv run --with pdpp example.py` #PyconUS

OH: "State your name and your shell" (at the dotfiles #PyconUS open space)

History of virtualenv / package Python tools at zanieb's talk at #PyconUS

OH: "Most of you don't live on a tropical island. That's a little bit sad." (said by someone living on Curacao) #PyconUS

TIL uv doesn't byte compile installed packages (can opt-in), while pip does does byte compile by default (can opt-out). #PyconUS

TIL at #PyconUS : uv sync will install the current project / directory as an editable package. Perfect for the sprints! zanieb recommends uv sync as the preferred interface over the "imperative" uv pip workflow.

OH: "That's very Excel" at the #Marimo open space #PyconUS

A preview of the #PyconUS Expo Hall for tomorrow.

Happy end of #PyconUS day 1 everyone - looking forward to a good day 2 tomorrow.

Sadly due to my late arrival at #PyconUS I'll have to miss the typing summit. The announcements of Ty and Pyrefly are the biggest news of the conference so far. Excited to see how well these work as LSP servers going forward.

#PyConUS I'm heading out to Pittsburgh on Friday, but not arriving to PIT until about 6:30pm. Are there any events happening later Friday evening?

PEP 751 has been accepted! peps.python.org/pep-0751/ This means #Python now has a lock file standard that can act as an export target for tools that can create some sort of lock file. And for some tools the format can act as their primary lock file format as well instead of some proprietary format.

Thanks to the staff in particular and all who participated in #SCALE22x, it was fantastic to see the community together in person. I'm already looking forward to next year.

TIL at #SCALE22x : The flox.dev installer on MacOS will take care of the #Nix installation for you, and the /nix partition (needed because of SIP) will autosize based on need.

Leslie Lamport finds a bug in his own slides. It happens to all of us. #SCALE22x

TIL at #SCALE22x , much of the flox.dev tooling is written in #Rust .

Pasadena convention center event screens obviously not running Linux. #SCALE22x

Pop-up BOF (Birds of a Feather) list for #SCALE22x Saturday night

Great quotes from @kylegospodneti.ch at his talk "#Bazzite , The next generation of Linux gaming" at #SCALE22x : ""#Flathub is a controversial topic in some circles, I don't think it should be." "Pragmatism is better for your audience than idealism" (ref. to closed source Steam / Discord / NVidia)
