Years ago, a meetup I helped organize explicitly added a CoC and we decided to note its importance during every meeting. I remember discussing with some members that having a CoC made them feel anxious that they might inadvertently violate the CoC. They were also concerned that some folks might even stop coming because we added a CoC.

My response at the time was "good".

Sometimes we take on discomfort to bring greater comfort to others.

Sometimes we exclude some in order to include others.

For any policy, you should wonder who you're excluding and who you're including (both explicitly and implicitly for each). Measuring the net effect is great if you can, but at least take educated guesses.

Every policy is a trade-off just as every action (including the action of inaction) is a trade-off. Few are a clear cut trade off.

And outcomes matter a lot more than intent. I know some disagree, but I genuinely think the belief that intent matters more than outcomes is magical thinking.

@andreasjung It seems like you started this poll in bad faith. You have a clear opinion on the subject. You were not looking for opinions from people, you were trying to start arguments.

@nedbat @andreasjung ☝️ this

I was considering suggesting more poll options to drill into the likely policy opinions and reasoning a bit more in 4 poll options rather than a simple yes/no, but after reading Andreas' replies realized this poll lacks nuance on purpose. ☹️

With Python's slicing syntax, the first item is the start index, and the second item is the stop index.

We've still got a few Lost and Found items in the staff room 306/307! If an item belongs to you, please come collect it by 3pm today or 2:30pm tomorrow.

After that, we will turn the items over to the convention center who will hold them for 30 days before donating them to charity.

I will admit to spending the first half hour of today's sprints figuring out why my tests weren't running, only to realize I had pytest installed system-wide on my laptop. 🤦‍♂️

@ghickman @pythonbynight @ehmatthes I used to do this to but I now do 0 global installs.

I believe I'm using an option to tell neovim about the virtual env where it can find the packages it needs. For all my CLI apps I use pipx. For one of my commonly used packages I use a "temporary" (though sometimes semi-permanent) venv.

treyhunner,
@treyhunner@mastodon.social avatar

@ghickman @pythonbynight @ehmatthes I also disabled global installs because I kept accidentally globally installing. If "global environment 0" isn't possible for you, temporarily re-enabling global install for just certain packages sounds like a clever compromise.

@juliansequeira @bbelderbos I missed giving you all a proper goodbye hug! 🤗

Hope to see you next year! And online until the next conference we meet at. 😊💗

@bbelderbos @juliansequeira indeed! Glad we ran into you both. That was a great way to make it through the airport. 😊

I'm jealous of the little Python logo badge many of y'all have next to your names and many community folks I appreciate (@fedidevs, @ThePSF, and many others) are on fosstodon.

I've been posting on mastodon.social for a while and I have no meaningful complaints though (ever since the servers were upgraded!).

Should I switch to fosstodon.org? (Multiple select voting is allowed)

    @bmispelon @yngvem @marieroald here's a talk they gave last year for a start: https://youtube.com/watch?v=OcuhrDIrblo&si=XE3yF68JhR3AfsX

    Marie & Yngve: Baptiste is also a very awesome person by the way! 💖

    @treyhunner@mastodon.social avatar

    @yngvem @hugovk @marieroald I just realized that neither @melaniearbor or I got one of these.

    If someone who's still at the sprints who is also attending @pyohio could grab a couple extras (assuming there's any left) I'd appreciate it! I'll definitely be at PyOhio this year!

    Alternatively if @willingc or @davidism are still around and could grab them, we could find an excuse to actually see our fellow San Diego Pythonistas before next PyCon. 😆

    Otherwise, we'll need to get a couple next year!

    There's a finance-related conference at one of the #PyConUS hotels this week. I've been asking people with speaker badges in the elevator what they're talking about. One person:

    "Artificial intelligence! There's been a lot of advances recently!"

    You don't say...

    treyhunner,

    @ehmatthes please post your findings! I'm now curious also.

    Ended our last night at #PyConUS with @melaniearbor and I playing Cabo with @ethantyping, @Yhg1s, @ehmatthes, and Hood. 🎉

    Pretty excellent final group of Cabo folks. 🃏

    For all who enjoyed the experience of Cabo, if you'd like to play it with other friends or spread it at other conferences, here's the version of the rules I play by: https://treyhunner.com/2015/06/cabo-card-game/

    Not one project is holding their sprint on the rooftop (4th floor). I feel like that's a missed opportunity here. #PyConUS

    Tables outside on the fourth floor roof with a yellow bridge in the background

    treyhunner,
    @treyhunner@mastodon.social avatar

    I'm so glad these tables ended having a couple dozen folks sitting at them by afternoon! 👏

    Next year at #PyConUS, tell everyone you meet about the rooftop track, rooftop lunch area, rooftop open spaces (I hosted one that went well), and rooftop sprints!
