Teachers and education folks!
Pitch an idea for a talk!

We want to hear about your experiences with Python in & outside the classroom. What works? What did you try that utterly failed?

Come share with a ridiculously supportive community!

To be clear, this is how *everyone* does it. It feels scary but the pro-tip is the time it takes for procurement to get their act together is longer than you need to write those features and get complant. https://twitter.com/_shahedk/status/1281258489776500736

The AI was created to help improve writing, but it was also created with the ability to learn and improve itself. In a few short years, it decided that the problem with writing wasn't the writers: it was the language. https://twitter.com/KMKWrites/status/1281084519311765504

Since PyCon 2020 was cancelled this year, the Python Software Foundation needs help covering a shortfall in funds.

I'll match up to $1,024 of donations. Just reply to this thread with the amount you donated.

I missed the chance to mention this when it posted, but now that I'm off the PSF board, this will be my primary focus in the PSF going forward. We're looking at more ways to get funding to projects in the Python ecosystem. The blog post gives a lot more context, so check it out. https://twitter.com/ThePSF/status/1278478870237364224

My body is a temple. Specifically, this temple. Decrepit, crusty, and more or less chicken-shaped.

Coworker: Have you tried mocking things?

You have a 0% chance of being accepted if you don't submit anything!

Worst case, you don't get accepted, but you get experience in writing/proposing talks 💚

If you need help, reach out to our mentors and they will help you!

The entire framing of tax as an individual burden rather than an investment in our society and future has melted the brains of multiple generations at this point.
