Some regrettable personal news:
As of ~45 mins ago I am no longer employed. I'm still trying to find my bearings, but would be gateful for whatever leads y'all have.
(I will say more in a bit, once I actually have the time to spare)
As promised:
I'm a staff-ish level software engineer, fairly deeply involved in the Python community (see @NorthBayPython which I organise, and @ThePSF where I'm a board Director). Things I like: understanding/taking apart/reassembling systems; open source; technology in service of humans. Otherwise not terribly picky :)
Things I'm good at: programming in #Python (other languages acceptable, of course), communicating complicated stuff in conference talks, probably a few things related to that. Ask?
I wanted an easy way to showcase merged OSS PRs without manually curating links, so I built this GitHub Action. It writes a markdown list into your README between markers.
It's time to get out the vote y'all! Wagtail has been nominated for TWO CMS Critic Awards! If you love our software, please show your support by voting for us.

Thanks, Quansight for supporting open source so forcefully!
One question I don’t stop to ask myself enough that always seems worth it: is there a simpler way to do that?
“Easy” can be an intoxicating invitation to simmering calamity.
TIL: In Django abstract base models, hardcoding related_name can cause reverse accessor collisions across subclasses. Use dynamic placeholders instead: %(app_label)s + %(class)s in related_name / related_query_name.

Curious: What was your first programming language?
Mine: BASIC (2006), then jumped through C/C++/Java, and now mostly Python + JS.
Recently added Go - it’s been a fun change of pace and loving it for the tooling/infra.
