Another #PyConUS video that I care about, the #Python Steering Council keynote. I wasn't on stage this year! because I'm no longer on the SC 
but they did cover something I care about a lot: Free-threaded Python #PEP703
I've been pestering the SC a lot to say something about the state of it in 3.14, and boy, did they indulge me. Six and a half minutes of the 30 minute keynote is about the efforts to remove the GIL.

More #PyConUS videos are up, including my _absolute favourite moment_ of the conference: Van Lindberg and @ejodlowska picking up their _tremendously_ deserved Distinguished Service Awards, *in person*. (I hadn't seen either in a few years, it was very emotional.)
They are both pinnacles of the Python community and set extraordinary, practically unattainable examples for the rest of us. I'm glad we got to cheer for them. (It was LOUD, so loud alarms went off!)

#PyConUS recordings continue to go up! One freshly posted session is the annual Steering Council presentation, with updates on Python 3.14 
, free threading, and more. As Pablo would say, WOW. https://youtu.be/BrEjbbDdQsM?feature=shared

#StandWithUkraineThere was actually an Open Space at #PyConUS for watching #EuroVison. I saw a rather big gathering back then..
My friends missed me at our Eurovision party (I missed it because #PyConUS was on at the same time), and they insisted on a do-over.
Good Eurovision catch-up party was good. Would do again.
ICYMI: here’s Finding 2.0 from PyConUS 2025. It’s a hard talk, but one of hope and a few laughs in which we compare software versioning schemes to personal development. It took a catastrophe to find version 2.0, but it doesn’t have to. Hope you enjoy! #pyconus #pyconus2025

Maybe there are others of you out there who are still ruminating on your PyCon US experience (you animals 
)... Among other things, I've been pondering the concept of "twiddling" from Doctorow's keynote (@pluralistic).
Since I'm not sure I'll quite have the bandwidth to travel to the bay for ehat[.]fyi, I decided to "have a take" via my blog...
Proceed with caution, as my uninformed opinion abounds...
Twiddling, Or Something Like ItTwiddling, Or Something Like ItTech companies manipulate applications to exploit users. What if we could do that to them?
Our Executive Director @drkariljordan's #PyConUS 2025 keynote is now up on @pycon's YouTube channel. 
Kari shares some incredible insights on the importance of community in data science education, along with stories of impact from our community members who use Python for Good. Thank you Sarah Brown, aflaxman@fediscience.org @fgazzelloni Amanda Kis, and @marijane for responding to Kari's call for Python stories.
