Ever need a handy, quick-read resource for someone new to open source? Or, ever need that resource yourself? Check out Open Source For Dummies, @openteamsinc Special Edition: openteams.com/open-source-fo… Proud to have worked w/ @teoliphant & Lalitha Krishnamoorthy to write this.

BREAKING! Guido van Rossum, the creator of Python, has officially reinstated himself as Python’s Benevolent Dictator for Life - but this time, he’s bringing some new quirks with him. 👀 Stay tuned for our Python documentary this summer! 🐍🎬 Feat @gvanrossum , Barry Warsaw, @mariatta and Brett Cannon.

The PSF is excited to share that Ewa Jodlowska has been awarded our Distinguished Service Award for her pivotal role in transforming and stewarding the PSF to better serve the #Python community and its future 👏👏 pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/03/psf-ds…

@LadyDemosthenes Oy, geez, those 'hey, here's what empty nest feels like, parents!' feels were ... super-feelsy.

Okay, Wild Robot was good!

RT @chacon: There is a git command called “git request-pull” that would format an email that you could send to a mailing list saying “inste…

@LadyDemosthenes Sort of the same thing happened with stone fruit, actually. I remember peaches and plums and nectarines being actually enjoyable. Now they're almost always rock-hard, flavorless kitchen sponges. (Unless you let them ripen til soft, then they're flavorless stringy Jello.)

@btskinn No I remember them being good as well! But now 🤢

I agree with his red delicious stance 😳👀 As for apples, it depends on use: To eat raw: honeycrisps To bake: Granny Smith mixed with Gala I haven’t tried Envy cause they are too bougie, need them to go on sale

@EudaimoniaEsq It's not just French that we Ohioans take liberties with: Mie-luhn (Milan) Roo-shee (Russia) Lie-mah (Lima) -- though this at least matches the bean

@LadyDemosthenes I actually just a couple of months ago attempted my from-scratch scones GF, and they weren't too bad! If my research is right, for the next attempt I need to cut in 20% cornstarch into the GF all-purpose flour mix....

@LadyDemosthenes There are some really amazing gluten-free things out there, and even some really good GF cake donuts, but one thing I've yet to find is even an *attempt* at a GF yeast donut.

What is one baked good you would miss the most if you were told you could never eat gluten, or any baked goods, ever again?

@AnnaGHughes Mmm, now you've got me wanting a nip of Lagavulin.

@LadyDemosthenes @pissfinger See, now you've found the way to inspire him to new heights of creativity. Start creeping the bedtime announcement earlier a few minutes at a time, and let the poetical juices flow longer and longer each night! 🤩

@btskinn @pissfinger He was just trying to stall bedtime, but I was rather impressed!

My son started singing “twinkle twinkle little star” to the tune of “the hall of the mountain king”: 🎵Twinkle twinkle little star Little star Little star Twinkle twinkle little star How very far you ARE! 🎶 He might be a genius Or diabolical

@LadyDemosthenes @pissfinger This is indeed brilliant.

@pissfinger Right?!?

We're excited to announce the Q3 2023 @Bloomberg #FOSS Contributor Fund grant recipients: -- @FFmpeg -- @numpy_team -- @trinodb bloom.bg/47PdV1X #FFmpeg #NumPy #Trino (1/2)

@Andrew_S_Rosen I saw you starred the cleanlab project on Github a few weeks ago... might be interested in this event we're hosting with Jonas Mueller from Cleanlab the company.

@LadyDemosthenes I would snack that. In moderation. But. Yah.

Quadruple stuffed Oreo! Gluten free and mint!

I really enjoyed this conversation with @bbelderbos and @juliansequeira, and the topic (impostor syndrome) is a really important one, especially for open source projects and communities. Follow the @pybites feed for more of these clips!

RT @openteamsinc: Indeed -- the power of generative AI makes it *more* important, not less, to ensure that these technologies are developed…
