#pyconus keynote today was in Spanish with English captions. Featuring the Basílica de la Sagrada Família by Gaudi as methaphor.

So, @AnthropicAI, visionary sponsor, is granting $2M+ to the Python Software Foundation (@ThePSF) at #pyconus and encourages businesses to earnestly sponsor.

@pamelafox 's presentation is as compelling as ever. On generating slides with agents.

@glcst Was going to DM you today about software quality. Great post!

Started working on a project to turn Pythoncode into native apps: Laith.

And deal with grumpy maintainers included.

There are many reasons why companies like to hire from Open Source communities. All valid. But on in particular is: In OSS you do what you want. Nobody tells you what to do. Nobody gives you a list of tasks. You have to figure out how to impose your vision and at the end of the day you succeed or fail. You need to be very high agency to make a dent in Open Source. It is a test of high agency.

Great to find someone taking the pain to go through these old docs!

Did John McCarthy derive the term "artificial intelligence" from Norbert Wiener? The same man he wanted to avoid inviting to the 1956 Dartmouth AI workshop so that he wouldn't have to argue with him? I think so. Here's my case: seanmanion.substack.com/p/artificial-i…

They did what to ensure it was unique?

I kinda hope this is a true story.

I had the awesome opportunity to move to the Python team at Microsoft last year, and it’s been the most difficult and rewarding time of my entire career. I had so much to upskill in. There’s one specific moment I want to share.
I was studying one night and found myself rereading the same paragraph over and over again. I just couldn’t understand it. I didn’t even understand what I didn’t understand.
So I sat on my couch and gave myself 15 minutes to cool down, empty my mind, and try again. I opened YouTube, and the algorithm blessed me that day. I clicked on a video of someone coding and scrubbed to a random spot.
As soon as I hit play, I heard the person in the video say, with genuine enthusiasm:
“I have so much to learn!”
We were experiencing the same thing. Except I was overwhelmed, and they were excited. As silly as it sounds, that was exactly what I needed to hear in that moment. Right before returning to my studies, I said to myself, “Next year, I’ll know I’ve made the progress I want if I can get into PyCon.”
Since then, I’ve been able to teach GenAI + Python concepts to over 100k developers, turn learntocloud.guide into a hands-on Python learning experience for 5k+ learners, contribute to Azure services, SDKs, and developer experiences, and connect with amazing people in the Python community, including Guido himself. Most importantly, I’ve been able to make much of this work available in Spanish: the first language of my parents, and one that means so much to me.
Little did I know, the Python community would be one of the most welcoming communities I’ve ever been part of. I have such a deep appreciation for this community. You all have embraced me, taught me, encouraged me, and reminded me that there really is no better tech community out there. I cannot wait to meet more friends.
And I’ll see you at PyCon 2026, where I’ll be giving two talks!

Was it not for the US sponsoring stuffs under it's military think tanks, we would not have had lots of stuffs.

If the only PDF of your work is on the nasadotgov website, and it's a dirty scan, then you've probably said something new and interesting. Btw, why are so many authors writing about perception in different approximations sponsored by NASA, the US Air Force?

@TheUnjournaling Oh Wow did not know this exists ... Bookmarked.

@osdotsystem That is a great review of the McCulloch & Pitts "Logical Calculus" paper!
I was referring to the influence phenomenology had on McCulloch, primarily through his work with von Domarus. More in the thread
Here is the pdf of the EvD thesis w McCulloch intro ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/…

How phenomenology gave us cybernetics, part 2
It's not all about Wiener.
Warren McCulloch, who along with Walter Pitts gave us the first framework for an artificial neural network, was also influenced by phenomenology, primarily during his time with Eilhard von Domarus.
Sean Manion@TheUnjournaling
How phenomenology gave us cybernetics, part 1 After Norbert Wiener got his PhD from Harvard at 18, his dad sent him to Cambridge to study with Bertrand Russell. (Note his dad tells Russell that Norbert's early success has nothing to do with his own ability, but is thanks to his homeschooling) In a weird twist, Russell would head to the US after a semester, telling Wiener to go to Germany and study math under several scholars along with philosophy under Edmund Husserl, founder of modern phenomenology.
