know what, #KiwiPycon was awesome and I'm so glad I went!

Only now do I realise I forgot to bring another set of stickers to #KiwiPyCon...

A pink sticker with white text reading "computer sind scheiße"

Back home in Ōtautahi today. #kiwipycon was good for the spirit. And good for the community. It makes a mind fizz and fills a heart up in good ways.

Back home to hot sneezy Auckland after a lovely time at #kiwipycon .

ok home time. #KiwiPyCon you were a delight, and I can't wait for 2027!

@benno Have I summarised your lightning talk at #KiwiPyCon correctly?

I gave a lightning talk about… whatever the hell this is. It was… a talk. #kiwipycon 🫒

I am standing at a lectern in front of a display, on to which is projected a painting depicting a bunch of anthropomorphised olives.

I appear to be trying to explain what it is, but not why it js.

Today's keynote on neurodiversity in capitalism really hit home in a few too many places. I have in the past given up and walked home after being unable to get into an event because the entrance was a bit unclear or difficult and it was a pleasant surprise to hear the speaker mention that as a thing. #autistic #kiwipycon

“One of the misconceptions about autistic people is we take things literally” #KiwiPyCon

Accidentally read "Darmok and Jalad at Tangara" and now I am looking forward to ST: The Next Generation (where ST stands for Sydney Trains) #KiwiPyCon

Enjoying #kiwipycon , some good talks from some interesting folks. I'm exhausted so get a bit socially awkward, but I am happy to chat! (When I don't want to talk you won't be able to find me)

"We don't have long vowels in English" - @richlitt
"Maaaaaaaate" - @benno

It's a @benno talk, yup. #KiwiPyCon

"Tactical, fractional arse-ing" - @benno #kiwipycon

A quite excellent keynote “Skill Issue” by @benno at #kiwipycon

Lots of gems from Benno's keynote this morning but 10/10 for community building, _local_ community building, and how that helps us all defend against people who don't have society's best interests at heart.

(Also, that those in privileged categories need local community to "know who you're helping", because if you don't find out, where's the pressure to make space, leave aside your financial incentives, etc)

Deeply smart and compassionate talk, well worth your time.
