I'm happy that my Python User Group trusts me enough to let me mentor folks by doing Mob Programming, Pull Request Reviews, etc! My hope is that your Python User Group does more than talks and instead helps build the regions next batch of Python developers! cc:

Organizers have been trying to make hybrid Python conferences impactful to those not in person. Organizers can learn a lot from what Calvin and his team have been doing since 2019.

I have a couple of friends who are hiring (primarily Java) and a couple others who are looking for work (primarily Python). I'm looking to fill out both of these lists and make some good introductions. Whatcha got?

Shut it Down Days are a thing that I wish more tech companies did... When I left Elastic, my wife was sad because it meant one 2 less days/month we got to spend all day as a family.

At Elastic, we are seen as human. We offer sick days, vacation days, Shut it Down Days, bereavement days, and more. We don't offer Unlimited PTO because we want you to actually take your time off - you earn it! RT these Workplace Green Flags if they resonate with you!

Got my static site generator updated to handle more types of content and hopefully will be working to actually do thing like documentation. But for tonight I’m happy about new tests that are passing and getting my QuickStart command running again.

Would making project updates on my personal projects be something that people would like to see in YouTube video form. I'm not planning on sharing everything but just things that maybe I learned?
