There are some things I could say.

But.

You can come to understand it yourself, also.

For me, one of the top presentations was this https://www.youtube.com …

There are patterns to bad writing. I'll give some examples based on a blog post I was sent. It's also based -- indirectly -- on some of proposals I saw for PyCon and PyDataDC.

For the conference calls for papers, I can ask a few questions of the author, but that's about …

PyCon CFP closes in a day or so. See https://us.pycon.org/2019/speaking/ for details.

After looking at 100's of proposals there are several broad categories.

• Some cool stuff I wrote (or helped write, or contributed to)
• Some cool aspect of Python the language
• Some cool thing happening …

And yes, this is truncated because I left early, and missed some important things. I'm going to have to catch on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsX05-2sVSH7Nx3zuk3NYuQ/videos

• Jake VanderPlas - Performance Python: Seven Strategies for Optimizing Your Numerical Code …

I was "volunteered" by a colleague to help the program committee for PyCon 2018. I rarely think of myself as qualified for this kind of thing. Yes. I have six books on Python (with a seventh on the way) but the PSF folks are brilliant and dedicated and hard-working, and …

Many years ago ('07?) I went to my first PyCon. My situation changed and I didn't get to another PyCon until last year.

The story is a kind of major dumbosity. In '07 I could expense the trip as education. In '08, I'd lost that feature of my employment. After …

In Montreal! How cool is that? I'll be working for my current employer, also a sponsor, to locate Python talent. I'll have a few copies of my books that I can give away. Most importantly, the promotional code PYCON_LOTT gives 50% off my Packt titles and runs from April 7th …

The star schema represents data as a table of facts (measurable values) that are associated with the various dimensions of the fact. Common dimensions include time, geography, organization, product and the like. I'm working with some folks whose facts are a bunch of medical test results, and the dimensions are …

Things I learned at PyCon 2007 .

1. In the Open Source community, men outnumber women 571 : 22. I guess that's why I'm married to a sysadmin instead of a programmer.
2. While I already knew that programming was literature, I never really connected it with Rhetoric until hearing R0ml's keynote. If programming …

I'm very excited to be giving a presentation at PyCon '07. A 30-minute slot is tough because the Star Schema can be confusing. The coding is pretty transparent (IMO), but the background for why I had to do this and places where it can be used are more interesting than …
