I’m excited to speak at @fastly.com #Xcelerate NYC on October 14, joining Artur Bergman, Founder and CTO of #Fastly, on Building a Foundation for the AI Era. We’ll discuss how AI-generated traffic is forcing a rethink of caching, security, and performance at scale.

🐍📣 Big news for Python Meetup organizers: We’re excited to share that the PSF Meetup Pro Network is back open for applications! Learn more about the network and how to apply ➡️

pyfound.blogspot.comApplications to Join the PSF Meetup Pro Network Are Back OpenFollowing the introduction of the PSF Community Partner Program, the Python Software Foundation (PSF) is pleased to announce that we have reopened the application for Python Meetup groups to join the PSF’s Meetup Pro Network! We’re very excited to bring back this offering to the Python community after applications were temporarily suspended under the broader PSF Grants Program pause last August. Make sure to check out the PSF’s Meetup Pro Network documentation page for more information on how to apply. Reopening applications for the PSF’s Meetup Pro Network is a small but meaningful step forward for our community support-focused programs. The rest of the PSF Grants Program remains on hold while we work through important considerations, such as what we can responsibly budget and how the program will be structured for long-term sustainability. We look forward to sharing more updates when possible. The PSF welcomes your comments, feedback, and suggestions regarding the reopening of the PSF Meetup Pro Network on the corresponding Discuss thread. We also invite you to join our upcoming PSF Board or Grants Program Office Hour sessions to talk with the PSF Board and Staff synchronously. If you wish to send your feedback privately, please email grants@python.org.
