@mariatta I've been meaning to ask you what the hashtag is for PyCon? Last year I saw all of:
#PyCon
#PyCon23
#PyCon2023
#PyConUS
#PyConUS23
#PyConUS2023
My wish is also for event organisers to include the day names with dates, it can make it much easier to plan.
For example:
Wednesday, May 15 - Thursday, May 23, 2024
For some events, knowing weekend/weekday or even specific day means I instantly know if can rule it out.
I am only a few minutes into @nedbat ‘s #PyConUS2023 keynote and I can already tell I am going to love it.

Here's @AlexWaygood's writeup of the burnout discussion at the #Python language summit:

At #PyConUS2023, @davidism facilitated an open space discussion of "maintainer #burnout, how to survive it, and maybe how to prevent it." Our notes, my analysis, and useful links in a new blog post:

And, as of today, a negative PCR test, nearly a week after I left Salt Lake City. Looks like #PyConUS's #COVID mitigations, and my precautions, worked for me!
More on what I did: https://www.harihareswara.net/posts/2023/pycon-2023-argument-clinic-mitigating-covid-risk/ & https://www.harihareswara.net/posts/2022/how-i-thought-about-an-in-person-conference-choice/ . I did find that the CO2 levels in some indoor spaces were ~500-600ppm, near outdoors levels, and thus was ok with lowering my mask to sip something indoors, which I did ~15-20 times.

An amazing experience at #PyConUS2023, this improvised open space, talking @FastAPI, @pydantic, and type hints with Guido, the creator of Python, for 1+ hour 🤩🐍
Even more after @samuel_colvin, @carljm (and other 10-20) joined 😎
All because @1st1 forced him to meet me 😅
Maybe this is what #PyConUS2023 is about. A bunch of nerds having fun together, and ending all energized and inspired to go and build the things that the world needs us to build. 🐍😎🚀
