@brianokken You have a gorgeous garden, you should post the photos more often. Especially because summer is here! 🌸🪷🌺

You know that Parks and Rec episode where there’s an Easter egg hunt and the kids can’t find any eggs, because there aren’t any.
For #PyConUS this year, #PyCon is the park, and I’m one of the eggs.
Enjoy PyCon and talk with lots of people, but don’t look for me. :)

I’m listening to “Company of One” by Paul Jarvis.
Chapter 5 is about mindset.
The discussion about passion is worth the price of the book tenfold, and should be required content for students, new grads, new hires, and really everyone.

@brianokken It's a great book! I read it every now and then when I feel like I need some encouragement.

@hamatti Glad I bought the audio book. I can see listening to it yearly

For all my griping about Python’s ternary operator earlier in my Python journey. I think I use it way more now than I use C’s ternary.
See, I can admit when I’m wrong.
It just takes a few (or 11) years.

I cook. A lot.
One of my “secrets” I learned from my wife is to use a good Pecorino Romano whenever Parmesan is called for. I just like it better. It’s milder. Cheaper. And still excellent. Don’t use cheap Romano though. It’s rubbery. I buy blocks and first shred, then, process with chopping blade. Then refrigerate for a month or so while using.

Did a little work on a pytest PR today. @nicoddemus and the rest of the pytest team are a joy to work with.

I think I could be considered a founder.
I lost my cat once, but I founder.

Really fun talk with @nicole about testing, code coverage, and tradeoffs. https://fosstodon.org/@pythontest/112293652780138865

@brianokken @nicole that was an interesting conversation. Thanks to both of you!

@brianokken @nicole I'm also (slowly) learning Rust. I'll definitely have a look at YARR!

If you haven’t watched this dance to “somebody I used to know” yet, stop what you’re doing and watch it. It made me happy and it’s so cool. https://youtu.be/REPPgPcw4hk?si=FqRWbQLpg5yZKNhf

Just tried a Boba milk tea from Jack in the Box. That’s probably enough of a description to completely explain the experience.

@pieq We have some good boba here, just not this time. I have been to Taipei before. I’d love to come back. Loved the night market and the street vendors with this shaved ice and mango and some sweetener that I still crave decades later.

@pieq Oh and the Royal Palace museum. That was amazing.

It’s nice when you’re kids are old enough that you can stop pretending to be offended by swearing.

Indeed. It's an odd, little signpost/marker of your child's path to growing up(and your acceptance of some of that).

@brianokken Dad jokes are always a safe bet. You'll never strike out with those.
