@powersoffour @joshtpm this is such a good point - one of my big worries is that people will opt to not vote at all because they don't like either candidate. it's really hard / stressful when we feel like we are picking the person who is "the best of two not so great options" if you know what i mean? picking the least dangerous person? is that a way to vote? what does that say about our political system?

@brainwane this is so great. how did you create a transcript ? I think i need to watch / make one from my video when its live on youtube. but i LOVE what you did here to make it more accessible.

Learning about #numpy comics in the documentation summit . How can we make #opensource documentation more fun amd user friendly?! Do you have ideas? #pyconus @pyOpenSci

I am so so so excited for #pyconus this year. join us for the maintainers summit TOMORROW! and my talk on #python packaging and community on saturday! hope to see you there!

@powersoffour i sometimes wonder if misinformation just makes things such that we all have very different experiences and take aways because there is so much noise. i certainly have not forgotten that day! but my guess is if you ask different people you may get different accounts of what actually went down :(

@powersoffour What are the changes that you've seen? I am familiar with the developer program changes.

i've been popping in and out when things break. they are currently deprecating some API elements but we also have technical debt from the pydantic 2.0 migration to address.

Our model is automagically built of via a github action swagger.json so when things change there, it captures it and updates our main model. BUT my guess is at some point we will have to do another overhaul!

@powersoffour Ofcourse! Matthew - it was really interesting to be on the other side of things!! i've contributed to a lot of projects but never been "thanked" like that!

Recognizing contributors matters!

The other day i ran into a bug in our stravalib docs with #python pydantic autodoc and the newest version of sphinx. i contributed to an issue here: https://github.com/mansenfranzen/autodoc_pydantic/issues/255#issuecomment-2070206921 noting what i did to patch around it and what versions it seemed to be impacted on.

i was then added as a bug contributor. i always do this for others but never knew how it felt to be added. I felt like my input was valuable! it felt really good. #opensource #community #openscience

If you want to learn how to create your FIRST #Python package or are just interested in learning more about pure python packaging using modern approaches this workshop is for you! Cost is 10$. Learn more and register here:

@powersoffour ok funny. I've been testing Gemini and comparing. Last night I asked it to create a numpy style docstring for code and it returned google style docstrings ...twice. until i asked it if it was sure it was right. I'm not sure how it's trained but clearly it's google biased
