It was great to talk with Daria and Mia @clytaemnestra.bsky.social about @europython.eu 2026! Thanks for coming on the show. So many interesting and cool talks scheduled!

How to manage imposter syndrome and why everyone needs a mentor? Find out in full episode with Manivannan Selvaraj. 👀

PyPI hit over 1 million users and it's maintained by a team of just a few people. I talked to Maria Ashna about what that actually looks like: clearing a 500+ ticket backlog, handling edge cases nobody thinks about, and what are PyPI organizations. Episode link is in the first comment.

Last week, I had the opportunity to speak at the @webexpo.bsky.social Conference, and I was thrilled to learn that attendees rated my talk 4.45/5. 🙀 And the Lucerna Great Hall is probably the most beautiful venue I've ever spoken in.

What does a PyPI specialist do? New episode with Maria Ashna, a PyPI specialist, coming soon!

PyCon US was amazing! And California is such a beautiful place! 🌴 I got to give a talk on how dictionaries actually work under the hood. We also had a booth with the EuroPython, so I spent a lot of the conference just chatting with people.

Why is Python slow and what is static Python? Full episode with @antocuni.bsky.social is out! Link in comments. 👀

Why is Python slow and what is static Python? Full episode with @antocuni.bsky.social coming out soon! 👀

Spent the weekend at @djangocon.eu in Athens. The talks were really good, the city is absolutely beautiful, and I finally did the traditional DjangoCon swim in the sea. Time well spent catching up with old friends and meeting new ones. The Django community is genuinely lovely.

I had a great time as a keynote speaker at PyCon Lithuania last week! 🇱🇹 Thanks to the organizers for the invite and for putting together such a nice conference. Videos should be up soon.

Watching @clytaemnestra.bsky.social talk about the Python roadmap at #PyConLT2026. Particularly excited about PEP 810 Lazy Imports.

One of the most fun episodes so far. Anthony Sottile (creator of pre-commit) on maintaining ~80 open source projects, the most bizarre bugs he found in programming languages, and the human side of being an open source maintainer. Link in comments.

👀 Coming soon with Anthony Sottile. Trailer link in comments.

PyCon US accepted my talk! Third year in a row, which still feels a bit surreal. 🤯 I'll be talking about Python dictionaries this May in LA. First time in California, can't wait! 🇺🇸

I talked to @mitsuhiko.at, the mind behind Flask, Jinja and Rye, about AI agents and the future of programming. The full episode is out!

I chatted with @mitsuhiko.at (creator of Flask) about building a startup where 90% of the code is AI-generated, which languages work well with AI agents (spoiler: not Python), and what skills programmers should focus on to stay relevant. Full episode coming soon! youtu.be/Qfm9BqQzIRg

We're at FOSDEM with the Python Software Foundation & Django Software Foundation! Come by our booth to grab some stickers, learn about EuroPython, DjangoCon, and hear what the Python & Django Software Foundations are working on.

Over the past term as Vice Chair of the EuroPython Society, I’ve had the chance to work with an incredible community and help move the non-profit forward, especially around long-term sustainability. It hasn’t always been easy, but it’s been deeply rewarding.

With Spotify now removing over 75 million AI-generated tracks, the conversation about AI music suddenly feels very real. 🤯 In my new episode, I invited someone from both worlds: @mamodrzejewski.bsky.social, a professional musician and AI researcher at the Warsaw University of Technology.

About AI-generated music with a professional musician and AI researcher @mamodrzejewski.bsky.social. Coming next week 👀 youtu.be/FggY1OZbbJQ

🪲 Every developer has that one bug story. At WebExpo, @clytaemnestra.bsky.social will unearth the wildest ones, from cosmic mishaps to everyday “how did this even compile?” moments. When she’s not hunting bugs, she’s building tools at Ataccama, helps lead EuroPython & hosts Behind the Commit.

Why is FastAPI so popular? 🔥 What’s FastAPI Cloud about? ☁️ I had the chance to chat with @tiangolo.com. I’ve admired his work for years and it was so inspiring to hear his perspective in person. 🥲 The full conversation is now available on YT and all podcast platforms! youtu.be/iaDRYUQ0OMM

🔥 The most popular Python framework, with 4+ million downloads a day. Why did @fastapi.tiangolo.com grow so quickly? What’s next for it? And why FastAPI Cloud? I had the chance to chat with its creator, @tiangolo.com about all these and more. Full episode next week! www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpqT...

🚀 Python 3.14 is out and so is 3.15 alpha! I chatted with @hugovk.dev, @pablogsal.com, and @lukasz.langa.pl about which release was the least successful, why release notes always say “and now for something completely different”, how Python actually gets released and many more! youtu.be/BHUWyM2cxwE

Python 3.14 is out! 🎉 What goes on behind the scenes before a new Python version reaches us? I had the chance to chat with @hugovk.dev, @lukasz.langa.pl, and @pablogsal.com about their experiences as release managers. Sneak peek: youtu.be/yc9lpM_zpes, full episode coming next week!

If someone had told me I’d end up filming a short with Guido, I wouldn’t have believed them! One of the things I love most about tech communities is how approachable and open everyone is.

This keynote was a lovely run through of famous and bizarre bugs from @clytaemnestra.bsky.social, so great that the video is up! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBbM...

Team #PyLadiesCon at #PyConUS 🤩 It's so fun working with this group 🥰.
