North Bay Python
@fedi.northbaypython.org
April 25/26, 2026. We're the boutique regional #Python conference for Northern California, the Bay Area and Beyond! A @ThePSF member project. Toot […] 🌉 bridged from ⁂ https://social.northbaypython.org/@NorthBayPython, follow @ap.brid.gy to interact
This blog post from @pythonbynight captures so much of what we try to do at #NBPy: a tech conference about people, a schedule that gives presenters the time they need to tell their story, speakers who are just another part of the audience. I love that what we're trying to do shines through with […]

I blogged about my recent experience at North Bay Python. Probably more of the same if you followed the chatter over the weekend. A summary and video of my talk are elsewhere. Here I reflect on some of my inner thoughts before/during my talk, a reflection on a few talks that seemed connected to […]

Watching all the videos by @NorthBayPython and really getting flashbacks of the #eurucamp days and that vibe 🥰. If you need some good vibes and want to learn stuff, the talks are all amazing. I know I am repeating myself, but it is all just *sooo goood*.
RE: https://hachyderm.io/@pythonbynight/116483341040156048 This is a must see! And all other talks kn @NorthBayPython are also great. And that is coming from someone who barely ever wrote python code 🥰
This weekend, I had the opportunity to give a difficult talk. It's not much of surprise if you've followed my writing this year, and it's certainly a heavy topic. And to be honest, I don't think there is too much new info there, particularly for individuals on this platform. But connecting the […]
... and conference talk recordings are now going live! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaeNpBNgqQWsb59zqc_mng1OqG9XdFCiH Thanks to the speakers for rapidly reviewing and approving their videos, and shout out to @andrew for doing phenomenal work stepping up to do in-house video recording […]

For your viewing pleasure, our time lapse video of the community strike. One frame every 10 seconds. As always, thanks so much to everyone who could stick around and help! It means we as organizers get to go enjoy dinner with all you fabulous people rather than spend many hours on cleanup. #NBPy
This weekend at @NorthBayPython was wonderful. The talks and, more importantly, the people I met were incredibly interesting and inspiring. What’s even better is that I’m now connected to a lot more people here that I have met in real life. #nbpy
That's another #NBPy in the books. We'll be back next year for the 8th edition and our 10th anniversary. From the bottom of our hearts: thanks for being the kind of community that speaks truth to power, instills hope for the future, and makes each […] [Original post on social.northbaypython.org]

#NBPy 2026 ran at a loss this year. It's a public service and we'll be back in 2027, but we could use your help closing the budget gap. Donate at https://nbpy.link/donate
98% of ticket purchasers actually claimed a badge, and the one other person had a good excuse [shows an x-ray of a fractured bone]. 👏 #NBPy
And that's a wrap for the talks! Thank you for bearing with me for this liveblogging experiment; I hope I got those edits to add the hashtags in quickly enough that those of you filtering were not spammed :). #NBPy

After you do your part, remember that "the laser pointer does not own you" and you can crawl into a bag, curl up in the sun, or otherwise recharge. "You cannot contribute if you never rest." "You are not alone in trying to change the world" - @baconandcoconut at #nbpy
"The laser pointer does not own you" 😮💨 @baconandcoconut at #NBPy
"Most of us are not destined for the history books" and that leaves us the freedom to imagine something more likely for ourselves, whether it's just working to survive for now or a small piece of a big work. Some examples Deb does personally include putting a couple bucks in for somebody's […]

Plenty of people have been on the right side of every bad event in history! @baconandcoconut just listed a WHOLE bunch of examples of individuals who did big things AND groups of people who did smaller things within their centers of very local control at #nbpy
[mention of historic racism] We're not the first people to live in interesting times! "Sometimes people will say that 'not everybody knew slavery was bad at that time' and I'm like 'wow, the word everybody is doing a lot of racist in that sentence'" - @baconandcoconut at #nbpy
There's a lot of things going on where it feels like somebody ought to do something, and that's not necessarily always you. - @baconandcoconut at #nbpy
"What about the 'all this'?" "The time we live in… is… interesting…" [slide of dumpster on fire floating in flood waters] #NBPy
what if it *was* your circus and they *are* your monkeys? - Does it affect a lot of entities in your space? Reach out to form a team. - Ask for input *in places where you're likely to get useful feedback*. #NBPy
So what about when it is yours to reply to? Has it happened before, and if so can you do that again? Who else is impacted by this who you could ally with? If you're not sure who should be involved, pick a spot you expect good input and ask for help from other members of your community. - […]

How can you tell what you should care about though? - Who is saying it? Is this a person who hates everything? Who keeps saying the same thing? Who's unreliable? Maybe less actionable than a reliable source giving new feedback. - Does this sound plausible? Okay... this is a hard one lately, you […]
