Is #RoomSharing a thing at #PyConUS ?

In the past I've seen posts or pages on other conventions' sites (and even on old #PyCon pages), but not for 2025.

Do people still do that these days?

FlaskCon accepted 5 talk proposals, a full schedule! I'm really happy that the extra week gave more speakers the opportunity they needed, and grateful for everyone who encouraged us to keep going. Look forward to some really interesting talks! #Python #Flask #PyConUS #FlaskCon

REMINDER: Our Executive Director @drkariljordan will deliver the closing keynote at #PyConUS 2025, and she is calling for stories from our community on how you use #Python. She wishes to feature some of these stories in her address.

Are you working on a project, tool, or research that uses Python? What problem are you tackling, and how is Python helping you solve it? Are you using Python to make an impact in your community, research, or classroom?

Please share your story with us: https://carpentries.typeform.com/to/nkRxLsri

I know lots of friends/connections are looking for a new job (or a better job?) so if you can get to Pittsburgh, then #PyConUS -- especially the job fair -- is going to be a great place to network with #Python employers. https://us.pycon.org/2025/events/job-fair/

FlaskCon call for proposals is open for until this Friday April 25th! Submit a talk about anything related to Flask/Quart, Jinja, Click, or anything else related to the Pallets projects and ecosystem. https://papercall.io/flaskcon-pyconus2025 #Python #Flask #PyConUS #FlaskCon

Volunteering at #PyConUS is a way to help run the show. In the past, volunteering has helped me feel more at ease with being at the conference. Being part of the action can calm nerves.

First-time attendee? You can absolutely volunteer too!

Will you be at @pycon US this year? Join the fun and sign up to volunteer at the PSF Booth (or another location) for a couple of hours! Volunteering at #PyConUS is a great way to meet awesome folks in our community #python

Spending my afternoon creating a custom Sphinx extension to monkey patch an extra flag into doctest because I decided I needed it for my #PyConUS tutorial... which is not on Sphinx or doctest.

Rabbit holes happen...

I'm adding resources for future reading for mine and Marie's #Python #packaging tutorial for #PyConUS, and I realised that I don't know any good #pytest tutorials for beginners. Does anyone have any reccommendations?

Where will the online watering hole be during #PyConUS this year?

I just posted a blog post with some online poll results and my own thoughts on this topic.

FlaskCon (at PyCon US) extended their CFP deadline.

You still have a few more days to submit a talk. If you have a 30 minute talk on #Flask (or you could put one together) submit it!
