I made the brave mistake of | bringing only my iPad to present with, and apparently it was | refusing to output 1080p, which resulted in squashed output of my | slides in their A/V system. And delays while trying to fix it | meant I had to give my talk on a compressed timescale. I had to | talk even faster than expected, and still needed to elide some | bits at the end. Lessons learned, I guess! | | I'm planning to re-record the talk on my own at some point soon, | but until then, all of my slides and examples, and the full | script for the talk, are available on my github repo. Hopefully | there's something useful there for everyone: | | https://github.com/jreese/pycon | __mharrison__ wrote: | I've been going to PyCon since 2005. It was good to be back even | if the conference was smaller than normal. Python is in a great | place. It still has some warts and issues (mainly from the time | it was originally developed) but it has a huge community, | wonderful libraries, a steady stream of students learning it in | college, a large demand from corporations for anyone who knows | the language, and it is used in many domains. | | The announcement of PyScript has the potential to be a game | changer for many as it removes one big sticking point. Getting | started and environment setup can be a pain. Hitting a URL and | jumping into coding from the get go is especially big for | corporate trainers like me who tend the spend the first hour or | so of a class making sure everyone's environment is set up | correctly. | tych0 wrote: | Hi Matt, speaking of PyCon, thanks for your talk on Qtile many | years ago. It remains one of the funniest lightning talks I've | seen, and also influenced my talk style to some degree. | | https://youtu.be/r_8om4dsEmw | zamubafoo wrote: | Anyone know when videos of the talks will be generally available? | PyCon snuck up on me this year and I couldn't snag an online | ticket. | martzy13 wrote: | https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCMjMBMGt0WJQLeluw6qNJuA | | I'm not sure when they upload them, but generally they make a | playlist on this channel. | make3 wrote: | it says, in a week or so | Kalanos wrote: | All of the keynotes were great and satisfied totally different | needs. I think they should have lead with PyScript though. | | Also: | | - https://github.com/fugue-project/fugue | | - https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide | learndeeply wrote: | Why the interest in PyScript? Pyodide offered something similar | and has been around for a lot longer, right? ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2022-05-10 23:00 UTC)
