Hi, it's Chris here again. Hope you enjoyed the event! We've just sent out our post-conference survey. If you were at #nbpy this year, consider responding so we know what worked well and what didn't, so we can improve for next year! Check your inbox! Last year's survey helped us improve […]

Awake after the night after #nbpy 2025. It was our third year in the barn, and it's nice to finally have the venue so worked out that I could actually hang out through most of all of the talks! It's such a delight to bring together a great group of people, year after year, no less to do it with […]

Back home after @NorthBayPython and once again this little conference is a very special experience. You should absolutely make plans to attend next year, especially if you're in the Bay Area.

The @NorthBayPython logo lives! #nbpy #excavacon

Hard to say goodbye.... #nbpy

We did it again 💖 Thank you to all of our speakers, sponsors, reviewers, volunteers, and attendees for making North Bay Python something special. Our cups are so full -- we'll see you in 2026! #NBPy With love, from the bottom of our hearts, @chrisjrn, @skimbrel, @andrew, and @robin

This year we captured our traditional community strike on time lapse video -- thank you to everyone who helped! #nbpy

The CFPs are open for @pybay and @pyohio -- please check them out!

You can donate to help make sure #nbpy continues happening! https://nbpy.link/donate

And there were some “awards” of various dubiousness. #nbpy #excavacon

Some things happened today at #nbpy You should come join us next year!

Capping off our weekend we have Tilde with "Prompt engineering & social justice: what we know so far" ✊ #nbpy

The view from afternoon tea #nbpy

Spare a moment for the humble heaters at #nbpy who are literally freezing their components off to make you warm 🤣

Please welcome Oliver Rew to the stage who is presenting "Python Untethered: Building Robust Embedded Systems" 🚀 #nbpy

Kicking off our last session block we have @treyhunner presenting "Variables and objects: it's pointers all the way down" 🐢 #nbpy

If you saw the ‘no ads, weapons, genocides, Microsoft Teams’ slide: that was from my talk yesterday at #nbpy. It’s more about the list I wanted to make for myself, and why I ended up doing what I do. Content warning: marine facts https://youtu.be/X9gGYZ9G_d4

*watches a bunch of people join the Divergent Python discord immediately* #nbpy

Now on stage we have @MaggieFero with "Key Security Considerations for Publishing Your First Mobile App with Python" 🔐 #nbpy

This talk from @joelle is the best talk on neurodivergence I've seen -- it's not going out of its way to convince, but to explain and to share experience. Seek out the video tomorrow. #nbpy

HOW MANY ENGINEERS DOES IT TAKE TO "ACCIDENTALLY" UNSCREW A LIGHTBULB? #nbpy

"But this stereotype is not true. For instance, I am a network engineer." #nbpy

Next up we welcome @joelle to the stage with "A Neurodivergent Career--Making Work Fit Us" 🧠 #nbpy

"kubernetes is probably not worth your time" -- out of context quote is out of context #nbpy

Starting our afternoon we have Mike Van Winkle taking to the stage with "From Hobby to Planet Scale: 5 Different Ways to Deploy Python" 🌏 #nbpy

Today's #nbpy shirt.

A bummer undercurrent of #nbpy is how many stone-cold geniuses seem to be dropping out, burned out or locked out of tech jobs.

Wrapping up our morning session we have Lilian with "Djangonaut Space: A Mentorship Program For Open Source" 🧑‍🚀 #nbpy

You know you're hanging out with a bunch of nerds when more than one talk at a conference uses a variation of "raises" or "leads us to" instead of "begs" the question. Because IYKYK, right? #NBPy @glyph

Next up we've got Glyph on stage presenting "Python In The Small" 🤏 #nbpy

Wtf, @glyph #nbpy

How do we learn without doing, trying, and failing? @itsthejoker at #nbpy

Kicking off day 2 here we have Joe Kaufeld @itsthejoker presenting "The Tangled Web We Weave: Continuing Education Through Silly Projects" 😜 #nbpy

Hello good morning! Did you know that it's antique fair day today in Petaluma? Just another quaint event in our wonderfully quaint town. Best of luck navigating downtown, and see you all at the ranch, real soon now!

Next up we have @kattni presenting "The Source of Change: Bettering Online Open Source Communities Can Begin with You" 💖 #nbpy

Next up we have @melaniearbor presenting "Cakeprehensions: A Recipe for Success with Comprehensions" 🎂 #nbpy

Very pleasant weather at North Bay Python Conference does make me wonder: Did they schedule based on closest weekend to Miss Congeniality’s Perfect Date?

Maddy Muscari talking about AI and coining the term “SlopGate” is why I love #nbpy so much.
