Day 1 ✅ Tutorial Day at #PyDataAmsterdam I gave a packed intro to the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — great questions, great energy (even when the demo gods 👀 had their fun). Now onto 2 days of talks, celebrating 10 years of PyData Amsterdam 🎉 #PyData #MCP #LLMs #DataScience

Well that was unexpected; I arrived at @pydatalondon.bsky.social as an attendee and ended up as the August Meetup MC!
