@treyhunner last year I went to the Heinz and Andy Warhol museums, which are nearby and have things you can't see elsewhere.

I also went to Bicycle Heaven, a bit further, I like bikes and thought it was interesting, would describe more as an archive.

I wanted to go to the Museum of Material Failures, but I couldn't check if it'd be open, especially since it's halfway between the airport.

Would suggest www.atlasobscura.com/things-to-do/pittsburgh-pennsylvania/places for more!

@treyhunner I thought about this a bit more and realised that if you write tests first, you could run MonkeyType over the execution of the tests instead of the entire execution, with the benefit being that the types are what you defined them to be, rather than what they might become via error.
Depends on the situation I guess!
@treyhunner I picked types then tests, because I found it easier to add in types (especially all at once using MonkeyType).
Then, those types can be used to help you write tests.
Whether that actually helps improve maintainability faster than the other way round is something I'd be keen to know!
Know someone interested in DevX @pycon? Let me know, or tell them to come to the Open Space Sunday 11am! #pycon #pycon2024 #pyconus2024
@koxudaxi Wow! Looking forward to it :D
Thanks to everyone's support, I have found someone!
If you're still looking, I still have the room free from the 21st to the 23rd, and it'd be a shame for it to go unused, paid or not.
Otherwise feel free to reach out to get you in touch with others who are interested!
Know someone attending #PyConUS 🐍 that wants to halve their hotel costs? 🏨
I'm a speaker πŸ”Š looking for an attendee to share a 2 bedroom suite at Embassy Suites.
All hotel rooms are ~$234 a night, so this opportunity would reduce it to $117!
Thanks! πŸ™
