The records you all broke at PyCon US:

• of proposals in CFP

• of registrations since pandemic

• spike in new registrations (10%) so close to the conference that we had to lock it down
  (I thought we'd be done breaking records at this point)

• of toots using official hashtag during the conference @fedidevs (each day we broke our own record from the day before)

• $ PyLadies auction proceeds

So grateful for everyone for the support and making history!! 🤩🤩🤩

Okay y'all showed out!!

Yesterday I ask about 3000 folks at #pyconUS (In-person and virtual) along with folks on social media. 200 of y'all rose to the occasion and donated making us smash our hopeful goal for the first day of the event.

That funding will continue to support our initiatives - https://blackpythondevs.com/initiatives/.

That goal always day one and y'all did it! Day two we're continuing the push.

Let's we add $4000 as our goal today to help support Black Python Devs.

I've just added the R programming language to Fedidevs! You can now find 194 #Rstats programmers on fedidevs!

Thank you @smach for the suggestion! 💙

The #pyconus tag on here is super active right now, great to have a functioning social media back channel again!

Out of curiosity, I searched for the #PyConUS hashtag on Mastodon and Twitter and scrolled back 16 hours and started counting posts. 🤔

I counted:

87 posts on Twitter on the PyCon hashtag 🐦

134 posts on Mastodon on the PyCon hashtag 🐘

The PyCon conversations have finally moved (mostly) to Mastodon! 🙌

Not a HUGE difference, but enough that I felt like there was more activity and decided to confirm my suspicion. 💗

At the airport en route to #PyConUS and feeling all kinds of feelings but let me start with this one, which too often remains unstated in the constantly frustrating and difficult world of software development:

I love Python. I love the Python community. It is such an enormous array of gifts (the code, the ecosystem, the social events) that has enabled so much of my career and my life that I want to express my gratitude.

#️⃣🐍 The official PyCon US hashtag is:

#PyConUS

Feel free to also tag with #PyCon, #PyCon24, #PyCon2024, #PyConUS24, #PyCon2024, #PyConUS24 or #PyConUS2024 if you want, but please include #PyConUS for visibility.

Blog Update: I have successfully migrated email sending away from ButtonDown Email to a self-hosted Ghost instance. Nothing bad with ButtonDown - simply, Ghost has by far a better editing and publishing experience (and can be self-hosted, of course).

Speaking of newsletters, one reason to migrate was because I want to explore email communication a bit further. So, if newsletters are your thing, be my guest and add your email here: https://preslav.me/subscribe/#via-email I won't spam!

In my quest to produce a shorter video, I’ve produced my longest so far:

tox vs Nox: What are they for & How do you choose?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImBvrDvK-1U

In which I introduce those two indispensable tools and reflect my own usage of BOTH. Enjoy! #python

The new python 3.13 REPL looks so useful that I might be able to switch from IPython to it entirely!

✍️ New post with a little recipe for generating “line number paths” for #Python classes and functions.

from inspect import getsourcefile, getsourcelines
print(f"{getsourcefile(obj)}:{getsourcelines(obj)[1]}")

✏️ I use this pattern sometimes for batch edits.

Last November, NASA's Voyager 1 sent home garbled data, and engineers traced the problem to the flight data subsystem (FDS). The problem turned out to be a single chip in the FDS memory. They couldn't repair the chip but could move the affected code into sections and store them in different parts of the FDS system. They tested the new system this week, sending signals to the Voyager 1, 22.5 light-hours away. It worked, and Voyager 1 is back.

I just published a new article!

It's a 4,000-word guide using websockets in Django that contains everything I wished existed when I set out to about them.

I use channels and htmx to build an async ChatGPT clone with streaming and memory.

Dear event organizers, thanks for putting it all together, but please also state:

• your time zone (and be explicit about "UTC+-???", instead of just "EST")

• your event hashtag (is it # EventName?, or # EventNameWithYear?)

I'm trying something new.

I'm going to do a monthly longer form piece on application development,
operations, and the process (and business) of making software.

Anyhow, it’s a goodie. Enjoy! 🎙️

💔 Hugs to our friends at Amazon who are impacted by today's layoffs.

I still can't find a public report of it, but I heard from a few trusted friends.

📈 They do this on a record, all-time high stock price day after record profits. 💸

Y'all deserve better than this. Greed is evil AF.
