"But other parsers know too much about HTML. They choke on or try to rewrite bad markup. They assume you care about the whole document. A pirate might make you walk the plank, but only a parser would make you walk the whole tree."
Happy 20th birthday to the #Python screen-scraping library Beautiful Soup by @leonardr .
@nicksspirit giving a lightning talk ⚡ on "5 Things You Don't Know About #DuckDB" at #PyConUS. A great talk packed with cool features about this OLAP tool
We need help mentoring newbies on git/Github/sprinting in the Intro to Sprinting Workshop tomorrow, Sunday May 19th from 5:30-8:30pm Rm 402. Please join us!
Find me and Github Security Champion Madison Oliver in Room 320 at 2:00PM, let's talk about vulnerabilities and how to make managing them less stressful! #PyCon#PyConUS#PyConUS2024
I'm not able to be there this year 😭 but I've got a question that I'm certain someone there knows something about.
Do you know any ML/AI researchers working on or interested in better, assistive, generative SVG output?
Maybe something to improve the quality of something like 1 potrace or work with Vector artists to produce a more "human" output of SVG objects as a resource 2.
Superb keynote by @simon about LLMs and using them as tools. There was a lot to soak in but these images sum up key takeaways for me. Thank you Simon for helping me separate the signal from the noise. 🙏🏽 #pycon#pyconus
@ViennaMike Yes, it was in a Lightning talk. But yeah, honestly I was expecting to see a bit more here, too. MicroPython and CircuitPython were (are?) my entry points for Python. But whatevs - it’s all good and I’ve learned some cool Python image making stuff so far, so I’m happy. #PyConUS#PyCon
Pallets and Flask office hours in PyCon room 317 from 3:15 to 5:30. Please come by to say hi and talk with us about your projects and our projects! I might be showing of a new Flask-SQLAlchemy idea for a more lightweight and type checkable implementation. #PyCon#FlaskCon#Python#Flask
Really awesome to see so many people in the #python community actively posting about #PyConUS on #Mastodon. There's even an official (and verified) @pycon Mastodon account!
Pierogis at Market Square, delicious, like small cheese and onion pasties!

Michael Winser and @sethmlarson giving a talk on the State of Python Supply Chain Security. I'm familiar with Seth's excellent work as Security Developer in Residence, very interesting to hear Alpha & Omega's cross-ecosystem approach.
I recommend the Jackie O cake. Go find Christos just for dessert! Only $3, your money back if you don't like it!
