💡 Swag idea for Python conferences/events between now and January 29, 2025: Python-themed red packets/hong bao 🧧 (2025 is the year of the snake)

@mariatta can make it a getcha game with most of them with chocolate coins and a few of them with Python challenge coins

The zipper on my laptop bag broke.
I don't have the skills to fix it, so I wanted to get a new one.
All products I've seen so far only come in dark colors like black, gray. Very few of them come in brighter colors like pink or purple. When they do have it in the bright colors, they're clearly labeled as "for women", have less features, look more like handbags, and cost more (from $10-40$ more).

To make it clear: the @pycon session chair is completely lost.
Of course, it is your right to mask outside. It is just scientific bullshit, without scientific evidence…and such statements and such persons in charge are the core problem of the #PyCON @pycon masking mandate

@cheukting_ho@fosstodon.org avatar

@andreasjung I don’t see any problem of being considerate and suggest people to protect their loved ones and people around them by wearing mask (which in fact, prevent spreading of airborne viruses). Also, even though you don’t agree, you should not be attacking someone who volunteered so much of her time and energy for #PyCon @pycon because of it.

#PyConUS is very inclusive - we have an open space for a #Rust meetup this evening at 7:30 in room 310. Folks who are interested in learning more about Rust and how it works with #Python please come! (bring your own food we don’t have pizzas) 🍕 🤷🏻‍♀️

@santhosh_reddy_ unfortunately we do not have the capability to include online participation this year

@cheukting_ho Do you know of any official Python professional certifications? Or ones that are accepted by the community as being valuable?

I'm looking at encouraging my team to pursue some training leading to recognised certificates.

@cheukting_ho@fosstodon.org avatar

@dominicsayers I am not sure. Since Python can be used in many applications, from web applications to data science, usually companies will hire trainers to train their team specifically.

The leader's job is to give orders and tell other people what to do.

You might feel that having other people to do the thing you used to do yourself is a downgrade: you no longer get credit for completing those tasks.

But that's not the job of a leader. The leader's job is deciding what needs to get done, and who you can boss around to get things done.

Becoming a leader is an advancement.
People will follow and do the things you ask only after you earn their respect.

Pep talk for myself btw.

@mariatta a great leader is to put the right people at the right position and give them right tools and guidance so they can finished the job without micromanaging 👍🏻

Would any company having office in #Paris being so kind to host a #OpenSource #security focused meetup on 19th March? There will be lots of networking opportunities as #KubeCon will be in town

Important subject on diversity and "leadership model for open-source projects" presented by
@cheukting_ho #FOSDEM

@zbyte64 @slamp sometime we do not maximise productivity because we want sustainability and we have to balance different goals a community wants to achieve 👍🏻

cheukting_ho,
@cheukting_ho@fosstodon.org avatar

@ZacBelado @slamp @timbray I think there can be a lot of reasons why, it is worth another talk to discover that 😅
